So I thought I'd throw this out there to see if anyone is interested. There's a car I've always wanted to build, and that same car has come up for sale just about the exact same way I'd build one… but I'd have to sell the M3 first to be able to consider buying it. So I'm posting my M3 for sale. Even if I can't sell it in time to get the car I want then I'll keep trying to sell with the idea to get a more nationally competitive auto-x car.
Onto the specs for my car. I've got an excel spreadsheet with more detailed info for anyone interested:
Asking $9000 for everything.
1999 M3 with just under 170k miles (I bought it with ~123k miles) and the following mods and extras:
Engine/Transmission/drivetrain:
Suspension / brake:
Other:
Extras:
This car is ready to go for Auto-X or HPDE duty. Add a 4 point bar, certified drivers seat, and 5 point harness and take it out to do Time Trials. Keep it how it is and run STU at local auto-crosses and have an instantly competitive car.
Any questions shoot me a PM or post up here. Thanks for looking!
