Man that looks great!

[e36mmm]

it does look great imo as well. the price is saying come and buy me. but my heart is saying wait for the evo 3.2L. dont know what to do seriously panicking :S

[ballin_e36m3]

have you drove a 3.2 evo and compared it to this one? i would base your decision on what you like better not by what others might like better

[325superETA]

i would wait for the car you really want. dont settle for what looks good right now.

[Paycheck713]

Yea, your right about that, you might settle and regret it later, or buy it and keep up with it then when you find the EVO sell this one, its pretty mint, I don't see why you couldn't get your money back after you have a little fun with it, who knows, during the time you keep it, it might grow on you lol...Good luck Bro

[e36mmm]

the thing is i havent driven an e36 m3 evo nor this one. ive been in the 3.0 version however have no idea about how the e36 m3 evo drives. i guess the good looks can wait for now. i know for a fact that if i get the 3 litre version. i will be in pain everytime i see an evo version. just the price is too good but i guess i shouldnt settle on good looks and price till i drive the evo version.

[Paycheck713]

Yea, sounds safe, but me personally I would buy it, use it until I found the Evo, then sale it, and maybe even get some return on the investment. Thats just me, but definitely don't go against your better judgment.

[e36mmm]

for me to buy it first i have to know if it has crash history because i think the car has been repainted. from the pictures the sides of the car is not original. the side m3 bits if you realise from pictures are painted with the body color and this might be a sign for a crash history. if the car has no crash history i would buy it, then sell it for a better price. im thinking if carfax would help as the car is 800kms away from my home?

[Paycheck713]

Yea, your right about that. So if it is clear of previous damage water,fire,wreck, and you get it, do you plan to drive it back?

[e36mmm]

yeh i plan to drive it back. however my old man prefers me to get a 325ci or 330ci. because he believes it will be hard for me to sell this later on as its a 94 manual. in australia, dont know if its like that in U.S but manual cars are way harder to sell compared to autos as much people dont drive them. hes right in one way but i am willing to buy a m3 evo if i find one in good condition, so we'll see what else is in the market for the next 2 weeks. thanks for all the opinions so far appreciated.

regards,
Buri

Oh yea I can see how that might become a problem, but good luck with it, but that 2nd gen M3 is nice!!!
