The Official Bring A Trailer (BaT) Thread

I mean realistically, an interior swap is easy enough and not brutally expensive depending on how you do it ... this could easily be made M-Texture or Cinnamon or whatever.

And it's still under 100K miles on a 20 years old car, I wouldn't call that "high" mileage ... but, it's not a $90,000 car. This is probably a good buy for a future flip.

There is no such thing as dove interior for the e46 m3. My m3 came with the black interior, however if I were to spec this car brand new - grey would be my top choice. I just wish it came with black floor and grey door cards. LCI only matters on the forum, not in real life, but being a 2004 makes it quite rare if you’re into that sort of thing.

LCI doesn't matter in real life??

Tell that to Hagerty




Also, people refer to it as Dove grey and have for decades, even if BMW technically dropped the "dove" moniker for the E46.

Just like how people call Impulse cloth Speedcloth... nobody is confused. It's semantics.

This is a good example of an average enthusiast owned car in solid condition but needs some additional maintenance.

I thought $35k was crazy for a silver/black E46 M3 with 84k.

There's likely a premium here for a west coast / California car. 2 of the big 3 done. Car looks cleaner than average and interior leather looks really good for the miles. No accidents/paintwork and clean carfax. Feels like about right imo and it'd be $37K with the 5% premium. Mileage is interesting since it feels like 84K is on the lower side for these cars now but maybe that's just me.

"I thought $35k was crazy for a silver/black E46 M3 with 84k." Damn, this is virtually my car ... seriously considering selling at that price.

You should list it. Feels like you would likely only get that price on BaT though

Did all the mods and services at once... Karbonius, BBK, Supersprint, Wheels, Big 3, suspension refresh, refresh everything, make it like new...

Most people do it over a span of years but probably end up spending more.

And another EAG car..

It's interesting to me how much these cars get passed around. Especially the EAG cars, even though that's part of their business model.

maw

nvm, labor was "only" $11k

[9kracing]

Labor was 11 grand, the parts were 33k

Honestly, 11 grand isn't that bad. When I add up all the little shit here and there..... nah, better not
