Soo ahhh $63k??!? That blew the average selling price of $15k out of the water.

[RobZR]

Inflation must be sky high when a 300k mi E34 goes for 63k. Mine should be worth at least half of that.

This build and auction has thrown the valuation of modded BMW's upside down.

we all have learned for years, that you start a custom build on a high mileage shell is a recipe for financial ruin.

Jason has shown us the right way to build and promote such a project. 

at the end of the day if you can't get a few people that really want what you have built in the room. it can be all for not.

We've seen a few well built and promoted modded cars like RVAE34's lsx E39 touring and Mattymatt's E34 touring.

But, the common theme is the touring brings in the money.  Not since 540keith's calypso e34 has a non M5 E34 sedan brought in any money, until now.

AND its WHITE!

Kinda surprised I haven't seen one of these swaps before. E36 tourings still seem under the radar for US importing to me.

Odd. Also saw an Isuzu Vehicross for sale recently. Not sure what's happening, but I don't like it.

That interior looks new besides the headliner. Had a friend in highschool that had a black/black svx. Matt and I saw a Vehicross on a used car lot off Atwood Ave a few months back too.

The holy grail of e90 M3's!  Euro GTS engine which is bumped up to 4.4l rated at 450whp.  OE CFRP pieces throughout, OE CF bucket seats, OE titanium exhaust and more!  These were a euro special and only 67 built!

its very sad that the holy grail of e90s has red accents thrown about the interior like a 90s honda civic who's teenage owner found a can of red spray paint in dad's garage.

I don't so much mind the interior pieces but the exterior bits are fucking terrible.  Now, holy grail being the factory 4.4l engine, adjustable dampers, titanium exhaust and lightweight pieces.

What's the discount for wrongful advertising? Looks like a good example though

Why would someone advertise that on craigslist?

Probably just proud of the nazi memorabilia that they picked up. Probably sits in it with a brown suit and fake little mustache and pretends to "wave" to people.

Owning this could be problematic, depending on who owned it originally.

Where else would you advertise it
