Non bmw good deal https://www.copart.com/lot/24750828

The rear crash bar looks mint. Looks like It needs a new rear bumper and some bodywork then it will be mint.

Obviously I might be missing a few things but you wouldn't buy a car like that without actually looking at it.

This won't be a good deal.  $65K and reserve not yet met.  Salvage titles are a cancer worse than miles on a lambo.  It is a pre 2009 which makes it less desirable, arguably the worst color available.

If you could do your own body work and wanted to keep it forever it could be a good deal, that is assuming there are no other issues.

These cars are retarded expensive to fix, and they are hard to sell even with pristine history's.

Don't forget it has an $89k turbokit on it.

It's just a vw, can't be too expensive.

Pre 2009 were still all Lamborghini

That is worth almost nothing.  If you were to remove it, you'd be lucky to get $20K for it, and then the buyer would still have to figure out tuning.

Like I said, given the right circumstances, it could be good for someone.

This. ^

But let get back to the junk on Clist..

E90 with a bad VC? I contacted him and it sounds like its just the breather vent barb that broke off. the catch is a loan and repair labor to actually get the car.

I've seen that car evolve from DE to its current incarnation. It's a fast beast. Playing in the NASA GTS-2 class typically involves a car in the mid to upper $20k range. It will be interesting to see where the bidding goes. The NASA guys that are vouching for it in the comments section like Luke and Zach are also solid.

Nothing special, but an old BMW for sale locally is always worth sharing

[Jdesign]

That looks like a nice one too

I think I've seen that car, It's sometimes parked by the UPS store/Jimmy Johns on 2nd street. Actually doesn't look that bad, but it needs a tail panel (you can see the tail light is pushed inwards under the trunk lid). Could be a fun/cheap daily or project if it isn't too rusted

That's John Morgan's old car

[Boris3]

Wow that cleaned up nicely!

[B C]

Checked out the track car rental site and another familiar vehicle is there of the red e30 variety

[Boris3]

Yep, https://traqcarrental.com/

Good to see both rides being put to use.

Looks like a respray inside and out, along with the full gut. I was seriously considering this for a bit after John let me take it for a test run at the e30 picnic a few years back. Body was in good shape except for the fender surface rust from under the old decal. Clutch stiffness would wear your leg out for a city/traffic DD but it certainly would be a fun track beast. Good to see that's where it ended up!

[HipMF]

Wow indeed. I almost bought that car, but couldn't pull the trigger because of the color combo...

I had seen a set of e36 LTW seats for sale recently too, so I guess it all makes sense now.

The guy from California that originally put the s52 in it posted maybe a year ago on 318ti.org asking if anyone knew what happened to his car. Someone should send him some pics...
