can i get some help with a VIN please!

hey wasup people, i'm helpin my buddy out with finding a car and we ran across this 325...

can somebody tell me exactly what the records on the VIN number are for, we're on a real budget and from the pictures the car looks decent, so even if its been in a few wrecks its ok as long as it is sound... PS its really cheap so some stuff is excusable, but i want to know if its salvage title...

well shiat...


cause this car is right down the road from us, 8 grand with 6 speed euro box, m3 brakes, cf hood, ellipsoids, m3 mirrors bumpers skirts, 18" bbs, h&r springs bilstien shocks, drilled rotors, m3 limited slip diff, supersprint exhaust... list goes on and on, its probably 10+ grand in mods at the least, all it needs now is an m3 motor. even has lightweight flywheel chip m3 clutch yada yada yada

we're goin to check it out in a day or two and see what it looks like in person, recent repaint is kinda fishy... but if we could get it cheap enough even if the car turned out to be bunk we could just part it out and recoup the losses. :-p thanks!
