The Official Bring A Trailer (BaT) Thread

Not BaT but gorgeous nonetheless… shift knob is a bit much IMO but there’s no accounting for taste.

Yuck. Resprayed AND an awful reupholstery job.

Both will need to be redone anyway LOL… and it’s a slick top for those who thought the Euros loved their cabriolets.

Yikes, add the downgraded lighting to the list as well.

High or low?

[BlueBimmers]

FWIW I'd say fair price. I've never driven SMG so can't opine on that experience.

maw

I think low. In my opinion this car is worth around 25k

[maw1124]

Agreed... I think a significant amount of value was destroyed In the last year on this example... coil overs that cause wheel rub, wheels, etc... I'm guessing someone will undo all those mods and try to market it as an "all stock, unadulterated example" before it hits 50k miles... but that's just a guess.

Why you'd spend money Fn up the suspension but not repairing the seats is beyond me.

Not an M3 but I thought it was pretty cool even if the swap leaves a bit to be desired. Oh and the RACP is obviously separating (pic 192)

something is up with the exhaust brace bolts in image 156, as well. Missing on the back section by then inserted or broken off on the front section. Strange.

They just give verts away at these prices. Imagine if you could snag a 75k mile coupe for 14k today.

Yeah, this guy wasn't giving away his but I hear you. I just don't know what other 4-seater drop top you're buying for these numbers that's this much fun. If you're looking to max out at the track, yeah a vert ain't it, but other than that... well I guess also if this is your daily then a hard top would be preferred.

Smg cab, double death knell.

If only it was dove interior it would hit the requirements for least desirable E46 M3. Also didn't help that it has 11 owners on the carfax lol. Actually don't think I've seen a car have that many owners before.
