im estimating 130k miles. it has 30k on the cluster and has 85000 shown on carfax in june of 2003 and than 20k in 2005. so it seems like the cluster was replaced once it was inoperable. P/O is a guy on s14. his username is python. mods are as follows.

Racing Dynamics Front and Rear Sway Bars, Bushings, Links and Reinforcement Plates
H&R Springs
Bilstein Sport Shocks
Cross Drilled Front and Rear Rotors
Stainless Steel Brake Lines
Aluminum Lower Control Arms
UUC Short Shifter

its got a lot of swirl marks but its pretty good. theres a chip on the trunk as well as as small dent on hood and driver rear quarter. both very unnoticable. i think paintless dent removal could fix them.

Nice! It has almost the same exact mods that my old E30 M3 had. Man I miss that car. :(

yea so it definitly has some electrical problems. alternator ground i think is the culprit. turned car on put heeadlights on and the car died. had to battery charger start it and than i couldnt turn the headlights or else car would shudder to a dead. but when i rolled it down my driveway with no headlights something bounced and caused the lights to go back to normal. than i was able to turn the headlights and do a quick rip in the neighborhood lol. ran it through 2nd to 5-6 thousand RPM. felt great.

yea but it has electrical problems which i should hopefully be able to sort out myself. it came with a bunch of free stuff like new fuel pump, rtabs, and a whole bunch of other stuff.

I wanted that car so bad but Glenn told me it was no longer available:mad
Either way great buy. 9k is a steal for that car. I tried to buy it for more.
Have fun with it.

yea i think he decided to keep it. i sent him a PM and he said he would sell it if i bought it pretty much in the next 2 days lol. and i was ready so i made the decision and he brought it to me. now i gotta restore the interior and it will be one solid car.

You think that's bad.... here in New Zealand nice E30 M3's go for $60-70,000NZD (about 48-55k USD), so I keep dreaming! :)

just a quick and ridiculously expensive restoration it seems. interior stuff for this car costs so much. i think im gonna hold off til the turbo on the e36 is finally done.
