So I checked out this car for Earl 2 weeks ago, besides the crazy rust on the drivers front strut tower this car is pretty decent. Interior was smoked in but in my opinion a detail would get rid of any evidence. Paint is decent and if this car is used for a M5X/S5X swap then it's mostly cosmetic issues.

good price too it seems

somebody buy this so that I don't feel like the only guy in our group with a functional, running red BMW:
2011 E92 M3 6MT ZCP - ESS 625 supercharged
2007 Z4MR
2003 E39 M5
2002 E46 M3
2021 X5 40i -
The guy selling it is a bit hard to work with but other than that it would be a good swap car if you feel like cutting out the front of the strut tower. It is a non structural part so that is a plus. The guy had no clue it was anything special until I told him about it haha

'smoked in' never comes out. on my last e30, most of the time you couldn't tell someone had smoked in it but the minute you blast the ac or heat, for the first few seconds you smell the ashtray awfulness. the last two previous owners both said they were non-smokers (and they were credible) so that means it still smelled like that at least 6 years since the last time a smoker owned it.

^^ very true, I guess I couldn't confirm without running a/c but yeah it's hit or miss. My E36 was lightly smoked in and didn't smell after detailing but I sprayed cleaners in the vents too.
If I had $14k to drop right now I'd be running to get that M5! I've seen one Imola E39 M5 in person and it looks so mean.

The guy selling it has about half a dozen 2002 and e21 race cars, and also owned my car at one point.

Thanks, I am quite an ambitious moron!
It was running and driving and my daily. I just had a better car sort of fall into my lap, so it needed to go, it is being parted out now though since so many different people wanted different parts.

Totalled E36 M3 shell with 318i parts in it. Non running... Someone had a dream that never came true...Ah, you're so right! Haven't we all had dreams that have never come true, its a tragic thought. Luckily we have each others support through those hard time. Also luckily, my only dream regarding this car was to not see it crushed and learn more about e36s. I accomplished both!

That doesn't suck at all, you just should have emailed me as this wasn't where I was checking for interest in the car. Im actually in the middle of pulling the motor and trans right now, feel free to reach out and Id be happy to sell it to you. My girlfriend and I were just going to throw it into out e30 track car and do our best to blow it up while we finished piecing together our 302 swap.
