    Yep, right after they break down and start rusting out and completely go to shit. Then they bottom out at about $50.00

        A dirty rusty example should fetch atleast 75, that is only with complete bodywork(in any condition)

            $6 per 100 Lbs? For scrap steel? Or $6/100lbs for a compleate car with glass, rubber, ect..

              To answer the OPs question, I would hazard a guess of about 2003, 19 years after production started.

              Just a guess.

                Anyway to access KBB from over the years? It would make a interesting "curve" if graphed.

                        Try Europe.


                        And to the OP, I have no idea, but I'd like to know as well. My room mate was wondering the same thing about his m3. I'm afraid to tell him, but I don't think they have hit bottom yet...
