Purchasing Help Needed Please - 1990 BMW E30 M3

[Simply Classy]

I found this M3 when I was looking around for cars and it was newly listed and is going for a little less than $3K, has about 71,000 miles and it looks clean. What I am worried about is if the car is real or not. I dont know much about the E30 M3s but I am thinking that it is one of those "too good to be true" situations. If you guys could help I would really appreciate it.

I may be going to check out the car this Saturday or Sunday if I'm lucky and if he responds to my email. I'll put up some picks of the car.

3 grand? Either that's a typo or the motor needs a rebuild.

That's what I said when I saw the price too. A rebuild did come across my mind too. Thanks for the advice.

What CJ said. Or maybe it's a salvage title.
Either way thats an awesome car and for that money id probably buy it lol

[Kielan]

For that price, I'd buy it anyway, even if it is a replica or needs a rebuild, still worth more than what he's asking.

The body looks really clean real or replica; the only other thing was the VIN# didn’t work when I looked it up, maybe it was a typo when they did it but who knows. Anyway thanks for the help hopefully this will work out and it’s not a spoof.

Edit: CarFax may not work on a car like this? Didnt think of that just because of it's age.

i am going to **** you if you find out this car is legit and the owner is clueless as to what he has...

+2 to this

go with cash ASAP it will not last long.

Even if it's not real, it's worth more in parts, but it does look legit.

I really hope that is the case, just emailed the guy so we will see what he says.

If I dont end up buying it I will put the link on here so you guys can go for it. Kielan you also know some of my friends.

i have a strange feeling this is a scam. if its not, you should jump on it. I would definitely do so.

where was the car located? i can see palm trees, so its certainly not CT. haha

[Simply Classy]

It does seem too good but the ad said its actually in NY, not 100% sure where but the search was limited to 250miles so its within that range. The first picture is misleading I will say.

On the car, does it matter about the front badge on the grille? I see the M3 badge on the rear and also a plus, the trunk is raised not flush like the base model, which gives away a seemingly real M3.

[CaioCK]

I'm sorry, but that is a 100% scam

How come you buy an E30 M3 for 3k? Not even the shell is cheaper like that... but good luck and let us know if he answers the e-mail

Give me the vin# ill tell you if its fake or not.

Also judging by the rear window, its a real M3. because the fake ones don't look like that and most replicas don't have it, because you need a real M3 as a donor since thoses parts are no longer available.
