Seems like there's been a run of these in the past few weeks. Weather gets warm and all the e36 M3s with issues come out of hibernation. Maybe the dreams of progress with project cars over the winter hits reality and folks want out? Anyway, gives Snap assorted options to look through.

Any links to that?

Getting rid of overrun fuel cut is apparently the first thing any serious tuner does, but honestly I didn't make it too far into this monster-thread. Google Drive link in the first post has the goods.

That price is pretty good considering the 6-speed too. It would probably cost a lot more to build one

Not local either, but interesting swap

not sure if the truth or just a statement=P
rofl you honestly just never know with me. I made the decision to buy my M3 on a whim because it just so happened to be the exact option set I wanted and was impossibly clean.
My 325 is completely refreshed now with vanos, H&R springs, control arms, half shafts, and new coolant tank. With no rust I think I could sell it pretty easily.
$8500 is unfortunately more than the car is worth but the market dictates someone will pay $8500 most likely because wagon fanatics will pay stupid money for an MT 540

It's a 200k mile engine that was used to tow and there is no brake controller to be seen in the photos which means he grossly exceeded the towing capacity on that car. In real terms there's no way this car is not so tired that it's worth $8500.
You're thinking of the old adage "something is only worth what someone is willing to pay" - that's not really what I'm trying to say. "Worth" as I put it is probably for lack of a better term.

According to the seller he only used it to tow once, and in his favor, he doesn't seem like an idiot-
" I added a european trailer hitch that the factory offered. I bought it from Germany and installed it to tow my BMW track car. I only towed once, but this vehicle with the sport suspension (factory sport airbags in rear) was awesome to tow with. It got 16.5mpg towing and this was with the automatic transmission. The hitch and car are good for 2200kg (4840lbs). "
With that said, its a cool car, but also a little more than I would pay for a MT 540T with 200k

that car is only rated for about 1600 pounds if you do not have a trailer brake. It could be there but without more pics I will assume the worst with no brake controller on that trailer. The tongue is totally flat and if it had a brake controller, you'd see it mounted on top.
I will agree he doesn't seem like an idiot, but the whole "only trailered once" it's also like every "mint" E9x M3 for sale ad I see where people say "never raced, always babied, etc." as if they never redlined the car or only did it once to "see what it would do".
That euro BMW hitch is like a $3000 or $4000 option - buying it an installing it isn't cheap - why would you only use it once??
To me he seems like a non-idiot who is exaggerating a bit on his lack of abusing the car.
I wish I could justify that kind of price for an MT 540T with 200k as well, lol.
