3 SERIES 93 Report post Posted March 10, 2010 (edited) Looks like the classified listing link in the OP was dodgy! Just received email from trade me reading..... We have concerns about listing BMW M3 E36 Evolution 1998 - 276837721, which you participated in or viewed recently. We have reason to believe that this account has been compromised by an overseas scammer and this auction is not genuine. We have suspended this membership until we have resolved this with the actual account holder. Edit: 5 mins ago there was an E46 M3 with a 10k asking. That has since been puled as well. Looks like the overseas scammers are out in force! Edited March 10, 2010 by 3 SERIES Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[email protected] 0 Report post Posted March 10, 2010 It really annoys me how people proceed to replace the stock M3 Lights for those el-cheapo ugly ones. You dont modify an M3 like that! I guess if the owners are so worried about pathetic things like that then I would assume they can't drive very well as they are only interested in image and cosmetics.

c.robertson00 11 Report post Posted March 10, 2010 I had to laugh at this.... "The ECU has also eliminated the frustrating 260km/hr limiter" I wonder how many people would think a 260km/hr speed limiter would be frustrating haha Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pjay 8 Report post Posted March 10, 2010 Got same email today. Well if your car can go faster than 260, yes a limiter is frustrating. I get annoyed when I hit 220 and cant go anymore because I have no more gear left. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
