This one was nice, looks like it still has a reserve assuming it must be lower

Jan 2025, so 1 year + 2 months... but yea. Living in AZ and knowing it doesnt have A/C... certain to be destined a garage queen

The AC retrofit kit is available for the M3 too.
And it's not extremely expensive compared to what he paid for the car.

I guess even finding a good original ac compressor isn't very difficult.

He bought the car in January and he is selling it two months later.
I guess it's not a good car for daily driving.

Well a PO chimed in and said the odometer didn't work when he bought it, but didn't provide a year. Hopefully that kills any "low miles" money a car that should be labeled TMU might fetch. The PO has a funny reason for selling it too, no AC, couldn't find anyone willing to retrofit it. Yeah, probably would not be willing to pay what a retrofit would cost either. Even with a donor car so all parts are present an AC retrofit is a dash and support frame out job that comes with a hefty labor bill.

I think we should all flame him on the post. Justice for all E30s

Interesting to see a 16k mile car with a repaired ca back section.

So the seller just swapped/reset the odometer?

In the OG listing it was said to have 63k miles but the cluster still showed what it currently does in those photos. I have owned several cars over the years where the cluster failed and BMW replaced it with a new zero mile cluster and put a sticker in the door jam stating so. I thought that was the case here, but I either don't remember the exact reasoning from the ad, or he didn't mention why.
