That looks sweet. I was looking at it earlier.

[nyle]

good price.

someone really went all out to vandalize it. I don't know how much was there already but its all dented up and scratched and stuff.

[cooljess76]

killer deal! I found this yesterday:
http://orangecounty.craigslist.org/cto/786168591.html
Complete, clean and running M3 for $4800. He didn't list the mileage, title status or accident history, but for that price who cares.

[Ji Money]

Damn, both items are a very good deal!

[campaiar]

The first deal is pretty good. All the swap parts you need right there. Bummer that the cluster looks to be gone already...

The second deal can't be for real unless it has 250K miles on it or something....

Hi there,

I'm contacting you regarding a 1995 BMW M3 I had advertised for sale on craigslist. The company that placed the ad for me, advertised my car nationwide so I guess that you've come across upon the ad in the local classifieds
I was very busy finishing my divorce , and I am very glad that I took the car, because it was my husbands most precious thing.

The price I'm asking for the car is only $4,800. It may sound amazing, but it truly is an outstanding deal. I don't ask to much for the car because I just want to get rid of it ASAP, since the bastard cheated on me in this car. It is bad memory and I should get rid of it. I would probably donate the money from the car to the red cross, as it seems the best solution.

I have been trading on eBay for some time and I am an affiliated member with a purchase protection account up to $10,000. I guess you can understand if I request this transaction to be made through ebay. Besides I get also some advantages to my account by donating this money.
If you are interested in buying it please provide me your full name and address so I can initiate the deal through eBay.

Please see below the message some pictures with the car and a complete description of the car. I would like more pictures just tell me.


1995 BMW M3 finished in Cosmosschwarz over black leather
This particular car has been serviced to cover every aspect of common failure parts to ensure longevity.This one has had many items replaced: water pump, thermostat, hoses, radiator, coolant reservoir, and rebuilt climate control panel. These items will ensure engine longevity along with regular maintenance as any reputable BMW mechanic will concure.The exterior shines very well as you can see in the pictures.
All body parts line up as they should, doors, hood, and trunk all close as they did when new and there are zero unsightly gaps. All panels are original on the car.
There is a scratch near the emblem, probably with an experienced buff job it will come out, it does not stand out and is not that deep. On the rear bumper impact strip on the passenger side these is a scracth as seen in the pictures, again nothing major but it is there.
The rest of the body as you can see in the pictures is in great shape for being 13 years old and above average shape. The glass is good all around the car. The headlights have been replaced and look new, they are not foggy as many e36's ae prone to.The inside of the car is in excellent shape. To start with, the seats are "Vaders" and they are in great shape with zero rips or tears and as you can see in the photos show very little wear. All of the functions on the seats work as they should.The windows and sunroof work as they should. The OBC is functional and the readout is perfect. The instrument cluster is clean and clear with no missing pixels and it illuminates at night as it should.As I stated before the car runs great and service is up to date. There is nothing preventing this car to be a daily driver. It starts on the first turn of the key everytime all the time.

[elchicano]

haha that guy got screwed. Thats karma for you. Well who ever gets it will need to clean the inside. Prolly find some rubbers under the seat or something. Still this thing is a steal.

[cooljess76]

Lol, it's a scam. I see this several times a week on craigslist, same story. The person emails you back saying that they're out of state and needs your full name, address and phone number to initiate a transaction. They usually have very poor grammar. Eventually they try to get your bank info and any other personal info they could from you. I guess I'm sorry for posting the link, hope nobody here falls victim to it.

[elchicano]

haha well then it was too good to be true.

[adamud]

sounds almost 100% identical to a motorcylce ad I was pursuing just a couple weeks ago.

STAY AWAY is my advice to everyone
