Official: The Ultimate Junkyard Find Thread

[Javier h]

Not exactly a junkyard thread

But I found last year a 99 M3 for $1500.

Modena interior, vader, all there no rips.

The car was local. The owner hit a curb and causes some front axle damaged and wanted to get rid of it.

I didnt have any money but tried posting on Bfc to guage interest and perhaps part the car before buying it.

No locals wanted to buy it! It was a running car, low mileage, good tranny, with new modena vaders etc.

By the time I got an email from a buyer, the guy had sold it.

I later saw it on craigs a few months later for $6800.

Axle repair and yes eventually it sold.

US Ellipsoids
cluster with working odometer (surprising)

I doubt there's an e30 in a junkyard in the whole state of Montana. FML I have to get everything shipped.

the last 3 times i've been to local junkyards only came across 2 maybe 3 e30's and the ones there had absolutely nothing, still looking for a glove box latch. Damn Southern California e30 owners...
