5 pointsI am the owner of this M3. I have updated the trademe listing with details. Yes, it is a Singapore car but I would have thought any issues associated with this would have manifested and been resolved in the last 13 years? It was Phoneix yellow but has been resprayed (not wrapped) in Santorini Blue. Was SMG but has been converted to manual. Further details in advert.

1 pointHey this is interesting. It's a Singapore import arriving in NZ at 6 years old with 113,127kms. I can only suggest it was used as a taxi in Singapore; it must have been in near-continuous use to rack that mileage up on the little island! 😁 https://www.carjam.co.nz/car/?plate=KTY939

1 pointOf the MT2 kit on that vert, I thought it looks dreadful on that particular car (in the photos provided). Visually heavy, and is it on 14's? Certainly it's only 14J6.5 vs 15J7; if in doubt ask your GF about the difference that half inch makes 😎 Probably needs 16x8s? Paint appears very good in the potatocam images. pics nabbed from the ad, for ref: (PS - very low kms though!)

1 pointPhoenix yellow IS the best colour

1 pointLast LSB went for $50k, but this one appears to be wrapped / repainted.

1 pointExcuse me! It's a Bosch! A german one! I stopped buying F&P years ago, when it took them 18 months to replace my stove, and the brand new one was faulty too - Never buy F&P crap again 😉 I just built brand new front struts for the R32ran in the dining room this week though. She didn't even roll her eyes 😁

1 pointIt's a wrap... Phoenix yellow underneath

1 pointThe E46 is a great car. But $45k? Still, no-one saw current price for the E30 going the way they are!

1 point@Allanw would never be so crude as to use the Fisher and Paykel parts washer in the kitchen for dishes...

1 pointThere’s not the same level of demand for the cabrio versus the coupes, especially the M-Tech versions, unfortunately so that normally sees a comparable vert priced lower than a coupe. That said Andy’s is very tidy, and I would say around $30k value, so insure for $35k.

1 pointYou can guarantee internal radius, and achieve tighter bends than with a mandrel bend. The Japanese tuners in the late nineties / early 00's turned it into an art form with intercooler piping. At this stage with advanced machines like a Femi Band Saw, pie cuts are a purely aesthetic choice.

1 pointM20: “Let me sing you the song of my people.” They all do that to varying degrees, but that definitely needs a valve adjustment at minimum. 0.10” on the feeler gauge is correct but they get slightly quieter at 0.08” at the expense of some power. Could also be injectors, which can get super clicky. worst case - it needs new valve guides.

1 pointManual conversion using Getrag 260 Not my definition of all original.

1 pointThanks, I purchased them years ago from albut only got round to fitting the oil pressure the other day. They just display a digital read of the gauge and the voltage too.

1 pointBearings don't last forever had those kind of levels. Very interesting engine, port injection too! Too bad the car itself is a stupid looking thing but at least the engine is an impressive feat. Of course they need to add in hybrid technology to make it pass regulations though

1 point^ it would be a complete rebuild, i bet.

1 pointMe? Not much. Miss M? She bought a 2013 116i. Really is a lovely little car.

0 pointsAndy (The Godfather) struggled to move his mt1 manual 325i cabrio for less than $15K did he not? I'm sure I'll piss off plenty of people with this, but imho the order of desirability for E30's reads thus: M3 2dr Touring 4dr Convertible Baur
