24k miles.  The description says the original cluster was swapped after importation but the original is included.

Soon to catch up to E30 prices.

Same car, two different ways of spelling convertible.

I do want to get an E36 convertible in the future. 

Holy crack pricing:

WOW!  IT'S EVEN SIGNED BY PAUL WALKER!  That's where the value is!

"Perfect condition...runs and drive flawlessly"    And the reason for keeping/selling the car on the holed out tire is...??? To take your mind off that ugly decal and what's underneath?

It also appears the strut tower brace has broken and been duct taped back together.

So many things about that ad that bother me
"M3 convertible performance" That doesn't exist
"In perfect condition" Clearly it isn't
""No problems or issues whatsoever" Also not true
"Got messed up" There we go!
"Front bumper damaged" I see that, but I thought it was perfect?
"Hole in tire" Jesus, just replace the tire...
"Wide body kit" (where?) the rear has some measly overs that don't appear wider 
"Race suspension" what does that even mean? Looks like stock E36 ride height to me

Friday rant complete!

Well, the end of an Era has finally come.

This is almost the perfect e34 and reinforces my need for one of these some day!

I guess it wasn't that perfect or the buyer flaked. It's for sale again.

Nice. I wonder if he paid the extra $5 to make that listing?

No, I think he snuck in under wire, posted 4/14 ,unless they got him for an update. unlikely.

That seems to be happening a lot lately on BAT.  It's a shame they didn't repost for him.

Im surprised it doesn't happen on every listing. it seems like everything on there sells for $3k more than what it should be.

Not a BMW but another BaT car that had the high bidder bail.  It's interesting to read his comments about the lack of support from Bat.

I'd think a simple deposit system would help a ton for flakey buyers. Especially if it's non refundable if the car is as described.
