Looked at this car today, intending to buy the M5. It's really in rough shape, even the wheel caps are totally destroyed. You think the dealer would replace them at a cost of 40 dollarydoos. The SMG paddles missing off the steering wheel stand out like dogs bollocks. Little wonder it hasn't sold for several months. Thanks to other members who saved me from buying the e39, this forum finally helped me 😁

I put a stage 2 tune on a my '16 330i using MG Flasher. Getting ENET to work was... Challenging. But it's easy compared to boosting an M3 :D Highly recommended.

I'm hardly a photographer nor have much spare time. But you're right. Maybe I should hit Atta up

Mmm not quite, it went into my grandmothers garage while I travelled SE Asia. The only reliability issues were around the stock clutch and the sump breather, which were fixed pretty easily. 10 grand to turbo an M3? L-O-L. And then you're implying that my car is not in good condition... These type of know-it-all ignorant comments are exactly why I don't visit here any more

Aluminium preferred but anything is better than wood right now.

Keen on some parts if it is being dismantled

PM me in a month if this doesn't sell

It's kind of cool... I'd buy a decent E36 widebody in a heartbeat, shame this car comes nowhere near close to pulling it off, 10 points for idea, 0 points for execution.

supercharging my E46 m3

Guess you better tell BMW to stop making these new turbo engines then .Having had a FI M car for 18 months: get ready for some wallet hurt (especially since you're E46!). Glenn is 100% right. Budget about 50% more than what you think it will cost, and a second car would be advisable for the first 12 months. Saying that, I'd do it all again -
Congrats on the new job! Hope you find the right buyer, it's one of a kind that's for sure.

Thanks for the dyno, dispels my worries about my dyno numbers being inflated by the tuner.

Awesome stuff! Mind PM'ing me prices/sources? I'm in desperate need of a brake system overhaul before the next track day .
