    Light Blue M3 Convertible in Berkeley Stabbing

    Just saw the report on KRON news. A 73 year old woman was stabbed multiple times in the throat near Berkeley's Rose Garden on Euclid. The assailant is described as a 17-20 year old black female who fled in a light blue M3 convertible. The driver was a 17-20 year old male. The victim survived the attack that was apparently random. According to police the victim did not know the assailant and there was no altercation. Police are looking for the light blue M3 convertible.

    Yeah, I was pretty shocked when I heard the getaway car description. I hope the driver isn't anyone here on the board.

    That would certainly narrow down the field. I hope it was stolen too, be on your best behaviour if you are driving a light blue one..

    "Light blue M3 convertible" was the official description given. I know there are several colors in both the E36 and E46 platforms that could easily be described as such. The car could've been repainted as well.

    They showed a vert e46 on the news. If it truly was an M3, the only light blue I can think of is LSB and that's not the easiest car to not be noticed in.

    I was wondering if they caught those bitches. Glad they did. They should give her the death penalty. I was thinking what if that had been my grandma or even mom...senseless.

    I wonder who the M3 owner is??? Thanks for the link.

    yeah so glad that they caught those bitches who were involved, they absolutely no respect for elders, and on top of all things, slashing an old woman's throat for no apparent reason is just stupid. and how the hell can a 16 year old girl be rolling around in an estroli M3 cabrio? stuff like that just pisses me off. we have yet to find the owner of the M3.

    I heard that in the morning since I took the day off. I was like "WHERE'S MY CAR?"

    ..and what the hell is a 16 year old girl doing driving such a fine automobile?


    figured it would be easy to catch them, if it was an E36, aren't that many estoril verts around, I've seen 5 others since I bought mine 2 years ago.


    then later on that night I saw a picture of what happens when you take 3 drunk teenagers, add one E36 m3 black, and put them together at night.


    you have 3 people hurt, and car upside down in front of a strip mall or similar.


    sucks to be them right now.

    I saw the report of the flipped-over black M3 in SF too. Were they all teenagers? I thought I saw an pretty big guy that appeared to be at least in his late 20's being carried of in a stretcher. Anyway, I guess prices of our beloved E36 Ms have dropped so much that they're ending up in wreckless teenage hands.

    could be, I didn't see any of the occupants, just heard 3 teenagers.

    I was thinking the same thing about how they've come down in price enough for kids to afford them.
