I threw up in my mouth a little, you need to warn people when we are clicking on carnage of that nature.

it needs about 10 gallons of gas and a match

10 gallons won't even get you a full tank! And a match... I prefer to light my black and milds with a torch.

I've never seen this color on an e46 m3 before and I must say it sucks.

When I ran the VIN it shows up as Light Gold Metallic and it says that it came with a hardtop.  I don't know if I hate it but I would rather have phoenix yellow.

That car to my knowledge was impounded by my work for the IRS. Tax evasion...., The car supposedly had a junk trans in it according to the bank.Its like a mustard yellow in person.

Mileage a bit high for the price, but love the wheel/body color combo: http://madison.craigslist.org/cto/4466254926.html 

Plus, it's the underpowered 323is we've been talking so much about!

That is not a bad looking car.  Great candidate for a project/swap car or a daily beater.

Nice!

I know the owner.

He sent me some more pics and it looks super clean. Two spots on the front bumper where he must have scraped a curb or something, but the rest looks really nice, including the interior.

I've looked at about 5 cars in the past 6 days and all have had rust/misc issues, so hopefully this one pans out!

I've heard that guy is a prick, jus sayin 

But for real, just looking to get back into an e30?

Looks like he lowered the price too...hope it shows well!

[Ryan...]

It was higher at one point? He's taking less than his asking price, even so I'm borrowing money to buy it until I finally get my first paycheck from this company

[BimmerBonez]

Yep, it was listed at $3,800 before. Which, could conveniently get you an S50...http://minneapolis.craigslist.org/wsh/cto/4441239344.html

Looks like a pretty good deal for that M3. I'm pretty much looking for something clean that needs either nothing or very minor work. 

The 323i may be underpowered but they're easy enough to get up to 325i speed.

And the more I read, the cooler I think a 5.0 swap would be. Perhaps that would be a nice future project..
