My car started its life as a 94 325i Mtech, now its a clone of a 97 m3/4 the only cosmetic thing that is not M would be the seats. brandi new paint about 4 mo old. engine runs amazing. I am a tech so my car gets treated like a diamond.
the complete suspention has been changed. every bushing possible, both lower control arms new with full metal balljoints, off set solid controlarm bushings, new tierods inner and outter, new brakes, drilled slotted with Euro dustless pads (needs a br sensor), aluminum adjustiable rear lower arms, sits on 4 bilstiens with 97 m3 springs, 97 offset spring hats, custom race alignment and 18inch wheels and tires which also have maybe 3500miles on them.
i've got alot of time and money in this car literaly blood swet and tears.. not sure what i want to do. sell or no sell.
willing to sell today for 9K, but more open for offers. but then again rideing the line of staying with it.. OPEN FOR SUGGESTIONS

*note missing fog has been replaced.

Reasonable offers accepted, DISTANCE IS NOT AN ISSUE!!

car can be viewed at any time, and i work at a shop, so if you want to put it up on a lift and look over any part of this car you can feel free.

I'll bite: Why are you representing that as an M3? Unless I missed something huge, that has a standard 325 drivetrain.

What's the mileage?

You won't get anywhere near $9k. Just because you have debts for that much doesn't mean someone will feel bad and subsidize that.

Car looks nice, though. GLWS.

My mistake, the listing was supposed to read 325i Mtech ext... the body of the car is brand new, every gasket/weather stripping has been replaced with dealer new. it has 157k on it the trans has 56k.

I know i was wishfull thinking to get near 10K.. but this is why i'm leaving it open to offers.

Good luck with the sale anyhow. But I think you'll have more luck at 6k.

doesn't mention an s50/52 transplant, so it's just a 325 right? hope i'm not missing anything. thought i'd ask since you are saying it's an M3 clone

My location is in my little info box. Oxford MA.


you wont be able to get more than 6500 unless you drop a s50 or s52 in there I bought the car for 5500, and 5k in paint and 700 in outside rubber seals mean nothing? that doesn't even mention the 3500 i have into suspension/wheels?? and everything is no older than a year. shit this car is almost brand new. i just cant stress enough the attention to detail that has been taken on this car. its really something that needs to be seen to appreciate it.

You work on bmw's? WOW:eyecrazy
The e28 m5 had the batt in the trunk where as the standard model had it in the eng compaterment. The 318 had it up front I believe. Not sure as to the e30 m3.
OP you are sorely mis representing the car.

OUch regarding the 3500 on suspension and wheels. I would have certainly gone a different route for that kind of dough.
Nice car none the less, why are you selling?
