Well, I really don't want to have to do this, but at this current time it is the best decision I can make.

I have to show some humility and say I budgeted poorly. Katie and I are getting married later this year and we are paying for everything ourselves. Well I didn't actually realize how much the wedding was going to cost until I set down and looked at it last week. Add the website work and its just over extending me. So I need to sell the M3 to pay for the wedding. I am extremely furgle and can't stand dipping into my savings account, unfortunalty this is the best option I can come up with right now.

With that said, I am not giving up on my dream. I stopped and spoke with Audi0000 yesterday and I have been doing a lot of research. Ill just stick with the e90 to get my feet wet and learn the ropes. By the time I make it that far I should be back in a position to purchuse another dedicated track car.


So on to the goods...

PA Inspected until 12/12

1999 e36 M3
5 speed
Right around 97,3xx

The Cooling has been worked on as well.

All new hoses, thermostat, and the aluminum Thermostat housing from Turner.

Bad - There is very little and its nothing that cant be easily fixed.

When I bought the car I had the Eisemann taken off. When they reseated the stock exhuast the gasket is messed up so there is a small exhaust leak on the driver side. I am going to try and get under the car and get this fixed asap before it sells.

The tires and wheels need replaced or wheels looked at. To bargain on the price I had the BBS RS wheels taken off and the guy gave me the countours to drive home. The tires have tread but are in bad shape from just sitting. The back passenger side counter is warpped i think. It has a vibration and I believe it is warpped. The previous owner also believe that to be the problem

Besides that the car is in amaznig shape. It is one of the best e36 M3s I have seen for the year.

If I get asking price I will also through in the spare trunk lid and the extra low rise spoiler (both need painted).

If you have any question please feel free to ask and anyone that wants can come look at the car.

Asking price $12500 obo. I am just trying to get back what I have into, not profit. PM for zhpmafia member pricing.

Forgot to mention. This car has never seen a winter and is originally a California car. The original owner moved to Boston to go to MIT and left the car covered in a parking garage the whole time he was at school.

Wow. I looked at this before reading at first and was trying to remember if you actually did just buy this. Sucks to see it go, but I guess priorities are priorities.

GLWS and I hope you escape from this car unscathed!

Great, great car. 99 too so for all you non-e36 guys, that means all the goodies - 3 spoke steering wheel, side airbags, rear headrests, armrest, illuminated shift knob, etc. These all hit 98.5+ so that half year and 99 are what you really want.

OP, take some 303 to the horn pad. it is a little faded. every little bit can make the difference. GLWS!

Thanks man. I hate to have to get rid of her but sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do. It really is a gorgeous car. I looked for awhile and probably at 100s of e36s. This one was defiantly the nicest I found in this price range and was very close to the ones I found in the 15 to 17k range.

Congrats guys! I love to see two people help each other out like this rather than selling/trading their car in for much less than its worth and run the risk of some bad person ending up with their baby!

Pretty much, Dalton! I wanted to get into a nice M3 and he's killing two birds with one stone by getting the ZHP. Unfortunately, we have to wait a month lol.

I thought you were in the search for an E46 M?

Either way, it seems to be a good choice. I sometimes feel like I should have gotten an e36 m3. I was behind one today and the sound of it was awesome.. for some reason I just love them. Then and there, I decided that if anything ever happened to my ZHP, I'd probably find myself a nice M3. I need something more rugged and raw :P

As life is right when you think you figured it all out, another curve ball gets thrown at you.

M3 is for sale for the final and last time. Unlike before it is posted in many places now.

Mods please put back for sale.

Not interested in trades or selling to a dealer.

Thanks

Oh great Mr. Wilson. You can rid this thread of its existence. I apologize for my bi polar ways and woman like decisions.

I appreciate all your modding. This thread will never be reopened.
