    It will definitely reach the right audience listed on Built for Backroads.
    Awesome read! Thanks,

    I'm taking care of my wife who just had her third after dual mastectomy procedure so it might take a bit but I'll probably post it there (problem is I really have not enjoyed it yet so I'm really not in a hurry )

    I grew up at Mulholland and Beverly Glen, I wish I were there now; this car was made for Mulholland.

    Thats awesome! I randomly came across them and have zero affiliation but found them a pleasure to deal with and also found lots of temptations there

    Sadly, the bulk of the bile was on the r3v FB page :(

    My point (finally) is I don't want to start over getting hammered and don't mind not selling, the closer it gets to November when I can drive it, the less I want to sell it.

    lol
    Facebook is the problem, not the car or the ad.

    B4B are enthusiasts who understand what they are looking at.

    If you glance at what it would be listed next to you will see it fits right in and the asking price would not be out of line.

    Find manual BMW M2, M3, M4, M5, and M Coupe cars for sale. New BMW listings added daily.

    99.99999% of the responses are do you have an extra 0, is there 18k in the glove box & they go downhill from there. Seeing as I don't have to sell & really don't want to I'm not interested in coming down much.

    The "real M"s they refer to are tired & need full maintenance, really all it does not have that an M has is the dual ear diff mount. The trunk rivets are 100% perfect, it has a new 3.2 diff bushing & new poly mounts as well as almost 4k in KW V3's new everything so I don't see how you compare a tired car with a fully maintained car.

    I love it, life is happening and if I can get my price I'll sell. I can't drive it right now, it's never under 90 and over 120 during the day.

    This is now.
