Young Thrash Driver 1020 Report post Posted February 1, 2015 M3's are cool, but can get much better NZ new for 10k. Plus your mates would demand you hand in your man card after seeing the colour... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BMTHUG 1029 Report post Posted February 1, 2015 Hahahah ftw purple is my favourite colour. I love that colour. Are the US spec ones only 240hp? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sweetm3 180 Report post Posted February 2, 2015 That was at the dealers when I brought "Minnie Me", at that stage he was waiting for it to pass a certain age. I was after the strut brace Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KwS 2421 Report post Posted February 2, 2015 Thats been for sale a couple of times now. Only really good for parts IMO, but it does have some good parts (interior, wheels, strut brace, intake, rear wing etc). Engine is only marginally better than an M52B28 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

M3_Power 636 Report post Posted February 3, 2015 The guy did not take kindly to me saying only a mug would buy it for 10k, in fact he was a total dick about it and basically told me to f**k off. I hope it rots in their yard before some mug does buy it. I hate to state the obvious Dave ... but what were you expecting when you walk into a car dealership and tell them no one will buy that car? Sit you down give you a massage then wine and dine you and say you are absolutely right? I actually personally quite like the LHD. For sake of argument ... what's wrong with buying this for say $8K .. rip the motor out and sell for $500 (surely someone would buy it), buy a proper S50B3X and do a conversion (what are these kits going for these days?? $5K??). You'd still have a fairly cheap M3 with the WBS VIN and the proper heart it was suppose to have. Not liking the colour change on it though, but for a track hack probably worth it?

M3_Power 636 Report post Posted February 3, 2015 (edited) I don't think he knows that you are an E36 M3 enthusiast/expert. Cut the guy some slack. I am sure like you've said he got burned on that import - thinking 'holy sh*t, that's one cheap E36 M3' only to realise on import that it is anything but the real deal. The market will determine it's value I am sure ... but I'd rather this and then do a conversion, over buying a reshelled E36 M3 that you see so often pop up for sale for much much more money.

richard 384 Report post Posted February 3, 2015 ^^^ it then becomes a bastard child and is worth lest IMO . motor/ chassis has to match and is important . race hack no worriers, but has to be cheap$ 4.500 would be my best offer. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BMTHUG 1029 Report post Posted February 3, 2015 So Im guessing it needed a repair cert for compliance? Thats probably why its final compliance..either that or it needed mechanical repairs. Personally I do like the colour. But after seeing the power figures its not that impressive Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KwS 2421 Report post Posted February 3, 2015 its been sold at least once before since import, so it makes me wonder why it hasnt been complied until now. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
