moda 7 Report post Posted December 5, 2019 (edited) https://www.trademe.co.nz/a/motors/cars/bmw/m3/listing/2429235706 Long time lurker here. Thought this might be of interest to others keen on a rare E36 M3 saloon. Apparently only one NZ new in this colour. Quite a nice example.

KwS 2429 Report post Posted December 6, 2019 Well I guess all the "WANTED: 4DOOR M3" threads on here amounted to nothing or this would have sold well before it even got to TM. Awesome car in a stunning and rare colour. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
M3AN 4016 Report post Posted December 6, 2019 Looks very straight to me, even the wheels aren't curbed. Seems like a perfectly reasonable price as well. Some of the essential maintenance already complete. I wouldn't be concerned about the miles. Swap out that terrible rear spoiler and shifter knob for a ZHP and you're sorted.

Have you seen @hqstu 530? it is in very decent condition and he has been quite unreasonable in how much he has poured into it. The level of care makes the km irrelevant in this case, I believe. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

liam02 6 Report post Posted March 24, 2020 As a previous owner not taken by the number plate! In my view cars like these hold greater value with the original plate. Thoughts? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
