I browse CoPart every once in a while, mostly for newer BMWs, but can't do much because I don't have a dealers license.

Do you guys have a license or a way around that?

I believe there are brokers who will help you buy a car with their license, but then they charge a fee

Another option is look in MN, since I believe you don't need a license there

I've looked into brokers, but it just seems like more hassle than it's worth. And I know getting a dealer's license isn't exactly an easy task either.

Nice tip on looking in MN.

I heard E-Repairables is the best broker as they don't expose your high bid.

I'm trying to figure out why this one looks familiar. Anyone here own this in the past or know the car? Maybe its just the front kidney color add-ons.   https://milwaukee.craigslist.org/cto/d/2001-bmw-330i/6422857732.html

I think you may be thinking of Dimitri, with the black E39 and a similar grille coloring. Thats who I thought of. He has made it to the picnic a few times and a few other meets/drives

I want to cry for the guy who has worked on that and has to sell it now.

That's a lot of work and it looks to be done right. I feel sorry for the guy.

Yea I'm sure it will go for more than I was looking to spend.

I found my turd with manual swap parts yesterday anyways. I would feel bad sending that M to the vultures.

That sucks to sell that e30!  There is no way he's recouping nearly what he has put into it and I can't imagine how much time has gone into that!

Looks like BMW didn't issue that faulty HVAC wiring recall in time...

^ What is the point of buying that thing?
Doesn't look to be a single thing that isn't toast (pun intended)

Yard art?  @Jdesign next post apocalyptic project?  It's already patina'd!

[patsbimmer1]

For $7500 this seems like a good price

Sadly it looks like everything is a complete loss on that one. The best thing you could do would be to build a tube chassis and just use the body panels, or reskin a car that hasn't been consumed by fire.

Awesome car. Those suitcase handles on the door panels are atrocious tho!

I agree, they could have at least gotten a nice looking strap.  But... racecar.
