gjm 3258 Report post Posted May 29, 2021 The E46 is a great car. But $45k? Still, no-one saw current price for the E30 going the way they are! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
leichtbau 525 Report post Posted May 29, 2021 (edited) It's a wrap... Phoenix yellow underneath Edited May 29, 2021 by leichtbau 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Harper 554 Report post Posted May 29, 2021 (edited) @leichtbau Sure it's not paint? Have heard of a few of these being resprayed to LSB. On a side note, I'm sure this car popped up at a car show thread on here somewhere a while ago. I remember checking the vin and seeing it was supposed to be PY on kiwi.

Olaf 3338 Report post Posted May 29, 2021 Hey this is interesting. It's a Singapore import arriving in NZ at 6 years old with 113,127kms. I can only suggest it was used as a taxi in Singapore; it must have been in near-continuous use to rack that mileage up on the little island! 😁 https://www.carjam.co.nz/car/?plate=KTY939 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tankguy 20 Report post Posted May 29, 2021 I am the owner of this M3. I have updated the trademe listing with details. Yes, it is a Singapore car but I would have thought any issues associated with this would have manifested and been resolved in the last 13 years? It was Phoneix yellow but has been resprayed (not wrapped) in Santorini Blue. Was SMG but has been converted to manual. Further details in advert. 10 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So true, that's what they do! Lived there for 6 years- there are very few opportunities to enjoy high powered cars in Singapore (yet it has a ridiculous amount of people who own luxury cars). So they go over the border to Malaysia where they enjoy beautiful highways which lend themselves to high speeds. So lots of Singaporeans head out around midnight on the weekends to enjoy high speed driving in Malaysia (where they apparently try bribing the cops). The only other risk ? Car-jacking! Singaporeans with luxury cars get targeted! Edited May 30, 2021 by ssbmw 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
