any one know what color this is... I can't tell from the pix..

[heiman5]

I think its avus or montreal blue but not sure... gimme some input as well.... It is a 95 with 110k miles.... missing from m3 bumper due to salvage title and a front end re-do. only wants 8k obo. really nice shape besides salvage title. Is 8k a fair price becasue of salvage title. I am guessing with a clean title it would fetch 11-12k.



thanks

Looks to be Avus, And the fact that its a 95 M just says Yes, It is...

FTL. Anybody that puts a regular bumper on an m3 is an idiot. Its like a step backwards.

To answer your question: Its avus. All blue 95 m3s are Avus and all blue m3s from 96-99 are estoril (with exceptions for special orders etc).

Are you looking for advice on whether to buy or not? If yes, than stay away for anything more than 5 grand.

yeah I was considering taking a look at it, but does anyone have a second opinion on the price? 5k seems pretty low since I could part it out and make way more than that anyways.

Montreal is way darker.... its Avus

Not trying to be argumentative, but.....

I think if you parted it out 5k would be about what you could get if you played your cards right. Maybe you could make a little more, but not enough to offset the work involved. I haven't seen the car so I can't give an end all opinion, or even pretend to. But here is what I know.

95 m3 with 110,00 miles and a clean title? 11k... maybe. If its fairly clean. For one that's been in an accident with an unknown history AND has a salvage title... WAY LESS. I can't even imagine what kinda gremlins that thing has. You get what you pay for... generally....

True dat.

[dak656]

VIN?

If it's not WBSBF... or whatever S50 M3's are... run away...

looks like a fakey to me. Not have the M3 front splitter is a cue, along with sport seats without the sport side skirts.

[heiman5]

hmm good point ill try to get the vin... the side skirts are a good notice... ill look into it more... 5-6k seems more in my price range anyways ;)

[razorone68]

Looks like a fake to me also...side skirts look wrong and they should be body color NOT black like a normal 325 has...BE VERY CAREFUL here.

[excessive]

check the VIn number, 8K sounds really cheap though

i just ran the vin on a decoder:Chassis number EH02757
Vehicle code BF93
Series E36
Model M3
Body type coupe
Catalog model USA
Production date 1994 / 10
Engine S50
Transmission Manual
Steering Left

looks ok so far.... carfax is being run as we speak to check for other issues besides the recon title from "front end accident"

[rcM3]

Good luck dude! Remember... You get what you pay for.

Keep us posted and be sure to have that thing checked out by an experienced tech before you buy it. Its well worth the $100.

[Aradaiel]

Sometimes I wouldn't mind a non m3 bumper. It scrapes on everything.

[heiman5]

just ran a carfax and its fine other than the recon title.... I will have an inspection done on it... im thinking about offering the guy my e30 vert for it staight up... so I would be getting it for the value of my car... roughly 5k ish if he goes for it.
