Up for sale is my 1997 M3 Coupe 5-speed. It is Alpinweiss III and has the dove grey (practically white) interior. It has the S52b32 in it and is OBD2 for those who are not sure. I bought it nearly bone stock and have done a few tasteful mods. It has 89,xxx on the clock right now and is in excellent condition. Always garaged and well-cared for.

Best of all, it has NO OBC ERRORS! (e36 owners know how remarkable that is)

Mods:

AA Gen. 3 Catback with less than 2k miles on it
DEPO gen. IV projectors with predator chromium angel eyes (Umnitza GB)
Prolumen HID (6000k) with less than 20 hours on the bulbs
H&R sport suspension (includes bilstein shocks)
Simota carbon fiber air intake
Front lip (I was told it was Max Velocity, but am not sure)
Parking light delete (reversable)
Frenched fogs (wired to be run independently or with any combination of lights)
matching authentic german plates with replica seals (Bayern)
Clears all around
White strut bar
Brand new PBR/Axxis "dustless" brake pads
SP Sport tires

Other goodies that come with the car:
Bentley service manual
Stock springs
Front and rear black LTW flag vinyls
Stock front lip
Stock exhaust
Stock MAF
All stock lighting

I have a little room to move- more room if you want the stock headlights and exhaust instead of whats on it.

NVFence- I just got home, so I will call you first thing tomorrow to discuss coming to see the car.

E36 PWR- thats one hell of a 325. Im only looking for an e30 325is, sorry

hey Alpine, thats one hell of an m3 you've got there.

Once you've sold your m3, I have an e30 325is that I'm considering selling.

Send me an e-mail if you're interested ikamalmaz@gmail.com, I'm located in Sterling, NOVA. I can send you more details and pictures upon your request.

So, I'm guessing that you're not selling your headlights anymore huh? :shifty I'd rather just buy your car from you, but it's a little out of my range. :(

I hadnt planned on selling the car, but I will be losing my garage space in the near future. If somebody buys it and doesnt want the headlights, theyre all yours 95luxm3

If you send me more info about the laredo/ pics I may be interested. I had been looking at wranglers, but a lifted laredo might peak my interest. My email is N64andrew1@aol.com. How much are you looking to pay in addition to the laredo?

I looked at this car today, very nice. Above average condition for 90K miles. New owner will be very happy w/ this e36 but will have to pay above market. Not even a concours e36 w/ 90k miles will bring 17k. Made and offer and seller's didn't even counter, just walked away. Very rude and unprofessional.

In all fairness, I'd spoken to this guy on the phone last week. He told me he didnt have $17k and that he found a silver M3 for somewhere around the price of $13k. Told him to buy it. He called me back yesterday to come look at the car and again I told him that I was willing to work on the price, but would not drop it substantially. On my asking price of $16,900 his remark was "the car isnt worth any more than $13k"

A 25% price drop is substantial in my book. I do appreciate you being honest about the condition of the car, nvfence. Best of luck finding the right M3.

good luck to you too, sorry we couldn't strike a deal.

I can have a look at this M3 as I am pretty familiar with them if someone out of town needs another opinion.

OP, at first glance I gotta say that your car is worth what you are asking. A car is worth what an individual will pay for it. Good luck with the sale and
I am sorry you are getting rid of it.

I checked out the car in person. Car looks great, drives wonderful, and feels solid.

Tastefully modded and is worth the asking price. Good luck Andrew.

Sorry, but I had to go with estoril or I would regret it. :(

What other parts have been replaced other than mods? ie typical E36 maintenance issues: radiator, pump, wiring changes, etc.
Feel free to contact me directly...

AlpineOverNappa

power steering pump was replaced. The water pump on this build date has a metal impeller, so it does not go out quickly like the earlier m3s with the platic impeller. The only wiring change is the angel eyes have been wired into the parking light circuit, but can easily be changed back.

I thought I was the only person who actually beleived this.
A car IS only worth what someone will pay for it, book values and such are nice but really shouldn't be given all the pull they get. Like the guy saying this car is worth $13k. Turkey. Someone will pay a lot more for this car.

Free bump for a gorgeousssss car. :buttrock
