FS: Euro 3.2/6-speed E36 M3

4/24: SOLD


Its time to actually sell my car. I bought the car 2 years go, Feb. 06, after having made my previous E36 M3 into a race car, I began to look for another street e36 m3. This car popped up and it was mine two weeks after the ad was posted. It’s a very special car and very fun to drive, and I hope it finds an enthusiast new owner.

But I must sell the car. I want to do more racing this year, and selling this car will allow me to do that. It’s a really great car, and I’ll be sad to see it go. There are only a handful of S50B32 street cars in the US.

Now one question will be: this car has been for sale for a while, why hasn’t it sold?
Its been a combination of buyers falling through and bad luck on my part. The car was hit on the drivers front corner after I took a deposit on it 2 months ago. A low speed impact in which the bumper, nose panel, hood, and drivers fender were replaced. .The car was totally repaired by the best dealer in town. Fighting insurance to get the right parts and it done correctly took nearly a month and a half. But the car is done now, and looks great, so back up for sale it goes.

Front and rear subframes reinforced, rear swaybar tabs reinforced also

Euro clear lights all around

Original Spare BMW Double-spoke I wheel (however tire has been replaced as it was too old) Current spare tire is a Nitto with minimal tread 235/40/17.


Interior:
Rare Alcantara/cloth M Vaders, full front and rear seats
Euro cluster with 7600 rpm redline and working oil temp gauge
Full 18-button on board trip computer (OBC)
6 CD changer
Sunroof
Adjustable steering column
AC Schnitzer aluminum pedals
Alpine 7894 Head Unit
6s speed knob
Hardwired for V1

This car is really great to drive. It makes a normal US M3 feel very lethargic. With the shorter diff it is quicker than an e46 M3. Everyone who’s driven it loves it, and always are wow’d by the power differences compared to a US M3.

The Bad:

1) I bought the car with a scratch in the roof. I don’t know the best way to fix it, so I have left it there. I have provided pics of it, its only noticeable when you get up close. I don’t know how it was made or what made it. It is through the paint, but not the primer.

2) There is a small dent/scratch just above the door handle on the drivers door. There is a pic of it also, its not very noticeable.

3) The passengers side upper speaker grille is broken. Pretty common part to break.

4) The A/C has been removed, when the engine was swapped in. However, the heater core is still present so the heat works. All the wiring is still there, and I have the bracket to mount a US compressor to the block. You would just need a compressor and lines.

5) The drivers side seat cable for rear seat access is broken. I have the cables, but have not fixed it. They will be included.


The car was detailed not long ago by a pro. And the paint work is brand new on the front end. It does have the classic fading on the side skirts and mirrors, all Dakar 95’s will do this. Otherwise you would never think the car has near the mileage it has. Its not a concourse car, but a very clean street car for its age.
.
I am asking the same price as before, $18,500.

Its hard to price a car like this, it’s the only legal S50B32 car for sale in the US. The car can be inspected in any state (not sure on CA), it will pass emissions and is just like any other OBDI M3 as far as inspection goes.








I have 50 pics of the can and various parts located here:

If you could do a trade for an E46M3 (2003), I'd definitely be interested.

If I didn't buy my dakar almost two years ago, I'd be all over this lol. Good luck with the sale, I'm sure you'll find a buyer real soon.

Year matters a lot: 95 was the last year before OBDII, which makes the swap legal in places like NoVA, where 96+ cars cannot get tags unless OBDII is functional to check all systems.

Which is why the lady in the next office heard me start sniffing when I read post #17. I paid about that much for a nice lo-mile 96 about 2 years ago, before our emissions laws changed.

Good luck on the sale: wish I'd known in 06 what I learned in 07.

Tex

neither. Euro's don't have the OBD equipment on them. No CEL or anything like that.

The car does pass tailpipe emissions just fine, if you are worried about that. As far as the state is concerned its a normal 95 M3, no one knows the difference.
