FS: E30 M3 (1988)
It really pains me to do this, but I need the cash to fix or buy another 993. I thought I could swing it, but it seems silly to own six cars at the moment and have a pending 993 partout project on my hands. Not to mention all the space that's going to consume.
Introducing my 1988 E30 M3 Zinnobert Red with Black interior
124k miles stock 2.3 in excellent mechanical and cosmetic condition. Everything on the car works as it should and is a real head turner. The A/C has been converted to R123a and blows super cold. The A/C ballast and fan were replaced this summer. This was a Californian and Texan car before my ownership and was always garage kept. I’m the third owner of the vehicle and the previous owner bought the car from his Uncle. In other words this car has been well cared for its entire life.
I have replaced several interior parts with new factory replacements to freshen up the interior and fix some cracked items. The factory Recarco seats are in good condition, they don’t have any rips or heavy wear areas, but they squeak. I have purchased new MASSIVE mounts to install some Recarco SPG seats, but never got around to it.
All fluids have been changed to Redline synthetic.
The car is in great shape and needs nothing
Recent repairs within the last 2k miles
Valve adjustment
Intake gaskets
Cap, rotor, wires, and plugs
Base CO and throttle body sync
New Supersprint exhaust (mid-pipe and DTM Catback) Also, have a VSR high flow Catalytic converter

I have always loved those cars. Very possibly a classic in the making.
They are still very quick cars, and are the "standard" for the small M cars. Apparently BMW made the M engineers drive an E30 M3 prior to designing the new 1M.

Nice car, great price. These cars are going up in value as fast as 911 Long Hoods. Couple of years ago you could find them for sale for as low as $13-15K. Now it seems that you can't touch one for much less than mid $20K's.

I owned one of these for 11 years. Truly AWESOME car! So much fun, & so much feedback. The S-14 engine is truly something special.
Best part, they have a useable back seat, much more interior space & a big trunk!
Oh how I miss mine...
