This one's for sale here for $22K.

On one hand, I am hugely drawn to that absolutely spotless interior and that body looks like it's done five miles since it left the factory, yet the engine -which is most of the reasons you buy one- looks like it's done about five billion miles and will most likely turn my driveway into an even bigger sea of expensive but broken down high performance sports cars.

I'm not even a huge fan of E30 M3s in the first place, as there are many other cars I'd rather have in the still-very-affordable-but-awesome-classic group of cars. And this even has a questionable story - sold in Germany, brought over to the UK and now it's here. But this showed up in a search query by random and I haven't been able to stop looking at it. I am sure I can find better examples, with fewer miles, for less money, too.

So it has a terrible story and has been all over the place, is way too expensive, has an absurd amount of miles and I don't even like the model . . .

Not even sure why I am making this thread. Okay so let's talk about something else . . . how's everyone's day so far?

 

Leap of faith?

 

You buy them for the chassis.

Go through BMW E30 M3 for Sale if you really want one. Or contact BMW for Sale.

 

Put the V10 M5 engine, nice car but I think 22k is too much for an old. 22k over here gets you a 2004 Cayenne S, Touareg, Range Rover etc.

 

Jox, jag har en kompis som är expert på E30's ifall du är intresserad så kan han säkert hänga med och kika.

 

Buy it.

 

Whoa, I would have thought you guys would say Run, Forest, Run!

That engine looks awful, no?

 

Looks solid in the pics and the interior in particular looks pretty good considering the miles.

 

Do it.... drop another engine/trani later

 

Do it. Pvssy.
