    ^ Agreed. Just buy an m3 at anything in the 20's you're close enough.

      I agree it definitely is a premium. But I took into consideration the uniqueness, condition and tidbits. I figured it would definitely be a keeper that I wouldn't have to screw around with.

      I was thinking to change the headlights for smoked ones, reinforce the suspension mounts change the lights for studs. Basically things that could be changed to original easily as well as keep the originals in same condition as now.

        I think a LHD would have sold for quite a bit more money. More miles, but a manual.

          I'd recommend a 5 speed swap. They can be completed seamlessly to look stock.

          Sure, the auto works fine but if you really wanna enjoy these cars, you gotta go stick!

              Which dealer was that? I'd say overpriced having lived there recently (14+ years) and following the market. Most sell anywhere from $8k-12k. $20k+ is Alpina money.

                Agreed - but original 325is cars down here in good condition are selling for $20 - $25k AUD. Helps their value that we never officially got the M3 here. This looks to be basically the same spec as a 325is or 325i sport in the UK.

                Definitely needs the other half of the M-Tech 2 spoiler (actually the fact it's missing, and the two tone treatment would worry me as to whether the car is original or not).

                  The dealership I bought it from is lusso motor group in Scottsdale AZ.

                  the two tone paint job is an option. As well the double deck spoiler. Once I recieve the car I'll take some pics and update.

                        Its a factory m-technic. It's built within the same two weeks as mine.


                        I like the two tone, its really different and very rare.

                          Each to their own. I don't really like the mtech 2 kits, there is too much going on. Just looks a body kit from an early 2000s car modification magazine.

                            When I was living in Regina years ago, there was a small dealer who imported a J Spec e30 320i MT2 with dual paint. It also was auto and was gutless as hell. I seriously considered it, mostly for it's unique options like adjustable headlights etc. but decided to stick with my manual 325is.

                              Looks nice. Just say no to M badges on non M cars.
                              Haha.
                              Don’t get a new BMW then.

                              We counted all the “M” badges on my wife’s new M235i cabby. There are 18 m badges in and on that car.

                              Lol

                              I counted 6 on a new 760li.

                              My actual 07 M coupe “only” has 8.

                                The m-technic body kit is boss and makes the car look better than any e30 variant including the m3.
