If it's not rusty that's not a bad deal. Comes with twin sidedrafts already too!

e34 m20... track car? Has a stroked 2.9L m20, so for $4500 asking someone could get a hell of a deal on the motor by selling everything else. Want.

AND its missing all the exterior LTW parts. Like the genuine spoiler, front splitter ETC.

17k?! someone is getting boned. how is that thing so bad after only 71k miles>?

Also a side note. It was listed by the dealer on EBay for 2 months at the price of 35k. No takers at that price. It also had a cage in it

I was checking out the pics and it looks like all of the rust problems are around roll cage plates, must have not been prepped good, gotten wet in the interior and sat forever

Exactly my thought too. Lets also not forget this one that sold for 13.500$ that was rolled.

Id rather buy this one https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1995-bmw-m3-42/

Unfortunately not an actual protection package car according to the VIN, but the purple over purple is kinda rad.

I couldn't believe the price either but reading through the comments there may be some funny business going on with the bidding.  No fucking way it's worth more than a few grand.

I know this car. I also put in money as part of a raffle to win it. They have yet to fill the raffle but its close. Maybe 5-10 spots left out of 100?

„Gold car Giveaway” on FB

that looks super shady and totally not legal

raffles have to benefit non-profit charitable organizations, or else they are gambling. 

they even say waffle to avoid the Facebook police from pulling it down.

Very illegal and it's been done for years but to be honest I don't know that they've ever been followed through on.  I've always heard of these raffles but never saw the results.

Am I the only one wondering how the car can be for sale if it's supposed to be given away in a raffle???

You mean a waffle?  It's a sticky situation really.
