Drivers seat wear looks a little suspicious for a car with only 102kms. Must have had a lot of short trips or a rough owner getting in and out without care.

The ultimate machine if you had time to go track racing regularly! Haha, never sell your road going M collection for one track car! Would be a bitter sweet day! I nearly made something up similar for my E36 that would have tied into the subframe floor with longer 10.9 tensile rod sticking up through the floor. Unfortunately I never got around to it and sold the car.

In road cars people hardwire relays to fuel pumps so they are switched on and off manually, so when the engine stalls or is just set to 'on' the fuel pump is still flowing. Potentially dangerous if a crash occurs and fuel is leaking pumping all over the place. Simple solution is an oil pressure sensing relay setup or tacho signal relay. But oh no, apparently it's a cool mod to bypass any factory fuel pump control for a dangerous constant 12v setup.

3UZ would do the trick 300hp / 435nm minimum Corolla reliability

Mmmm non facelift. So sharp looking. -
Nice. So these have the 3.0L engine? It's really sad they have made the engine vs model labeling even more confusing than ever before. Now it's just a line up figure, higher the numbers, the more you spent

Nearly cheap enough for a demo derby! -
I can't take this guy seriously, his delivery is a bit too arrogant / condescending

Lolol, you say price drop... sellers says: "with prices for modern classic V12 ever increasing"

Don't see these come up often!! M5 E61 TOURING 2007 - Akld

This may be true, but those buyers were never looking at M cars, V10s, V8s or anything interesting in the first place. Most of them already drive Toyota's and their idea of going green is by selling their Camry V6 for a Prius. Only to end up having a sadder, reduced quality of life to save pocket change at the pump. -
Cool videos Brent. Looks like a good time. What was the entry cost?

These are sooo awesome, a fair bit more desirable than the fairly common sedan versions. Andrew here has that beautiful blue one. I think pricing is pretty relative, certainly not going to get one any cheaper than that. -
Yeah my thoughts too, just heard about people getting done for high speed videos where they can id the car / roads etc and prosecute accordingly. Probably not an expensive fine, but demerit points or something?
-
So low at the back. Not a good look.
-
Can't police prosecute for displaying driving like this on a public road especially when plate is shown?
-
Love old late 90s early 00s reviews.

Sounds like your worrying about nothing to me..
