Interesting what this car will sell for, a lot about this particular car online. Google the vin number. Former track car, has around 100k miles, cluster changed, incorrect interior yet fetching top dollar being represented as a 52k mile car. Odometer last showed over 56k miles when it was up for sale a few months ago. This odometer runs backwards it seems like. Lol.

Interesting. I guess it pays to do your homework when buying a classic car or any used car for that matter.

It's not a survivor cream puff, nor a lovingly restored car. Not a money no object resto either.

Someone bought an M3 shell, gave it a paint job and sourced some inexpensive E30 parts to throw at it. My guess is he'll make more money than most people who attempt to restore an M3, but his product isn't something I'd want to purchase as an investment.

Wow. This is not cool.

I've seen some videos showing how badly some Copart cars were wrecked before they 'enhance' them by putting stuff back together to make the damage look minor. Googling the VIN can often find the original insurance photos which show a much different story of the damage. I think an in-person inspection is always necessary unless you have very low expectations.

Salvaged title, former stripped track car, wrong interior, replaced odometer and asking $68,000.00 to buy it now.
