Anyone in the Forth Worth, TX area who can look at an E46 M3 at a used car dealership?

I saw a gray E46 M3 through Autotrader and before I spend money to run a Vin check, is it normal to ask someone here to take a look at the car for problems and for such things as Hurricane flood damage? Maybe reimbursed that person for lunch and gas money? I'm in Arizona.

I would have the seller take it to a reputable BMW Indy and have a PPI done. Check the Vanos, Subframe and the SMG if not a 6MT. What's the asking price? Year and how many miles? Any pictures or link?

Sorry, the link is long. It is on Autotrader just last week, 2005 E46 M3 with 121k miles for $13,800. Not a bad price. good color, considering it had 4 owners.. There's just lots of things I like to see in person first before doing a PPI.; dings, scraps, subframe, hurricane flood damage(if any)
