Buyer-facing read on this listing
Hello, first off I will try to get as much information as possible. And update photos here in the next couple days. Selling my 1998 bmw m3 just hit 200k miles. This is a very well taken care of example that has been adult owned and has original paint/black Vader interior in very good condition. Clean title no accidents ever. Save the low ball offers I have it priced VERY well. I’ve seen sub 100k e36s in worse condition. This week I just recently got the valve cover, oil filter housing gasket and vanos line done. As you see in the photos the picture of the internals I also have a video. It’s SPOTLESS. and been done. I posted photos of all the maintenance since I couldn’t fit on here. Wheels are currently black! Body, paint, interior in Great shape and all original! No rust. If you’re looking for beat up one I’m sure there are some for cheaper. Just passed CA smog, no problem
Price sits close to the current comparable average, so the decision will come down to condition, provenance, and how complete the file is.
Photo coverage is still thin at 1 image, so presentation quality is harder to judge without opening the source listing.
Documentation still reads thin here, so this is the kind of listing where invoice detail and specialist history should drive the next round of diligence.
