Is it just me, but before it was raining convertibles, now it’s raining M3s

M3s and Verts represent about half of the E30s that are on BaT.. we're closing in on 130+ E30s sold on BaT for 2020 (not just listed, sold). 60+ of those are just S14 M3s and OEM Cabriolets.
325i/ 325e/ 318is/ Touring/ IX/ Swapped cars are all combined for the other half. Shockingly, ZERO Alpinas were listed this year. However a few Alpinas did pop up on cars and bids, but Im not sure how they did

So the engine rebuild uses a VR head gasket. Also shouldn't the head bolts be e-torx? I thought there was a TIS about having the hex head bolts replaced because of a manufacturing defect or something.

Seems about right for a BaT sale... Like nearly everyone here, Im not a fan of VR gaskets but I know people who havent had the headache that I dealt with, so who knows ...

The M3 / Cabrio trend continues...

I just bought Todd’s old M3. Finally have an excuse to use those smoked StarTecs I’ve been hoarding.
