1995 M3, the value of?

[MischiefB1]

this is generall teckademics talk, i mean this is dado's kinda car in question here.

anyways i know a girl who ownz a 95 blue m3 5spd, has 59k miles on it and the thing is mint. shes not selling it but i offerd her 16k for it, and she said for that much shed prolly sell it to me.

is that about fair?

[H00T]

Yeah, she could ask for more.

[M34ever]

ill buy it for 16k if you dont want it:)

[ProMSL]

WHAT?! YOU GUYS ARE CRAZY!!!!!!!!!!!! 16K?! Man....i found one on the internet for 10K, mint, 50k miles on it! A better price to offer would be 14-15k at most

[mikemc]

12-14k would be a good price.

[dkbmxer002]

man if its in good shape thats a good deal, blue book on that is 15,500ish and if shes willing to sell it when she doesnt even want to for 16 i would take it, thats really low miles for what your getting in my area of flrorida its hard to find one below 16 let alone with low miles, actually i found none, cause i would take a low mile E36 if i dont get an ls1 and i was lookin aroundm ProMSL post the link to the one you found, cause if there is one for 14 or 15 buy it but if not i would sure as hell take hers

[Vader13]

Good deal, Dado paid 12,500 for his 96 M3 with 130,000 miles on it.

[M34ever]

WHAT?! YOU GUYS ARE CRAZY!!!!!!!!!!!! 16K?! Man....i found one on the internet for 10K, mint, 50k miles on it! A better price to offer would be 14-15k at mostshow me the link...my friend buys and sells m3's all day and i am constantly looking at the market with him. buying a 98 m3 with that many miles for 16k is excellent, a 95 people usually ask more for.

[ProMSL]

are you serious? people will actually pay more for the obd1 than the obd2?

[M34ever]

yep, its a enthusiast thing. I have seen people with low mile 95's asking for around 20k

[H00T]

I've seen privately sold local M3s around here going for like $15k for a 1993 with like 70k miles on it.

[M34ever]

their is no such thing as a 93 m3

[Dado]

a 95 should be around 13k

[H00T]

their is no such thing as a 93 m3Well it was an older one, with higher milage, and a kind of high price.

Werd. Maybe if it was non-luxo, 5-speed, with no sunroof... MAYBE.

[driveway]

A better price to offer would be 14-15k at mostthere is a 95 M3 in the tampa paper for $9500, didnt say how many miles or color, but I thought it was a good deal if it was in decent shape.

[M34ever]

im sure its over 120k miles

[MischiefB1]

im not sure if i wanna buy an m3, or swap a s15 into a 97 240...

[l3it3r]

I can get one for ~ $10k

[chunky]

there is a '95 M3 that is "professionally supercharged" here for $23,500, that is really high but i don't know anything about hom much a supercharger costs.

if anyone wants more info on this car the number to call is (517)694-5804

[22r_celica]

M3's are nice, but as far as maintainace is concerned....questionable,

The problem is the enthusiasts that are like oh shit!!!! and they pay out the ass for it.

[Juice]

I don't know about any of you guys... But I don't think I could see myself buying a car with any mods on it. Kind of ruins the fun. I mean, half the fun of modding is doing it yourself and feeling the difference, right?

I don't think a person is an idiot for trying to get something back for all the work and parts they've put into their car. A car is worth as much as somebody will pay for it. Sure, some people ask way to much for vehicles, but I think a heavily modified car is definately worth more than stock.

[Juice]

Not if it's been raced every weekend and the motor is bad. I would rather buy a car from a 50 year old lawyer than a 25 year old streetracer... But that's just me

[Ryan]

You guys are completely right. If Dado sells his M3 and asks anymore than $15k for it, you can tell him what an idiot he is.

[M34ever]

man i just typed out this response but it got deleted...ill reply again tomorrow.

[Ryan]

Suuuuuuure! [owned]

[M34ever]

serious! it probably made no sense though cause im half asleep but it was a good response!

[Juice]

Well Dado is different... He knows how to handle his shit and take care of it. Most of the douchebags around here just race up and down the avenue all weekend and fuckin' grind the gears with every shift. If the guy has a rep for being a good driver, then hell yeah, let me buy that shit. But if it's just the next dumbfuck around here that doesn't know how to drive a stick and just stuck their third tranny in there.

[M34ever]

ok im bored so ill type it up again...this might not make sense though. If you look at any dealer or auction that car wouldnt sell for anywhere near that. The blue book on the car is less then half of that and if some person wanted to try to finance it or something their is no way in hell that the bank would give them the money. Only a small fraction of the car market is enthusiasts like ourselves that would be willing to pay this outrageous money for the car. If you notice the smarter ones will return their car back to stock before selling it then sell their mods seperatly. Of course their will always be someone out their willing to pay the money and they will be happy with it and much props to them. Something like Dado's car or other movie or show cars of course will go for more money because they have a lot of exposure. im about to fall asleep on my keyboard and i hope some of this made sense and ill continue tomorrow:)

But if it's just the next dumbfuck around here that doesn't know how to drive a stick and just stuck their third tranny in there.dado's car is probably far more beat up then any kid who just races up and down the street and not that its a bad thing because dado uses his car for different purposes.

[M34ever]

oh one more thing, if anyone remembers a few years ago a guy on the east coast, i forget his name, had this is insane custom full ACS widebody e36, complete with AA turbo and everything. It had over 80k invested in it and it sold for 15k on ebay.

[Juice]

Holy fucking shit dude... I woulda sold my body for sex to get that.

I dunno, man.. You'd just have to know the racers around here...

[NCTotalEclipse]

yeah, kids around here blow motors and trannies like hoes blow the pole. A LOT

[Ryan]

Well then somebody got an outrageous deal. That is NOT normal.

[Juice]

So you know what I'm talking about. My friend with a fucking automatic Civic drives it like it's an auto and is fixing to put his 3rd tranny inside. I mean, he wonders why his luck with trannies is so bad when he does neutral drops from four or five grand.

[Ryan]

My friend with a fucking automatic Civic drives it like it's an auto

That's terrible!

[Juice]

That's terrible!


LOL. I meant stick... He has an auto and he drives it like a stick. I'm too damn tired, sorry... He'll get it up to six grand then shift. Every fucking time. You can hear his fart pipe screaming "Heeeellllllppppppp meeeeeeeeeee"

[Jay]

Thats an awesome price I'm look for a E36 ///M also.

[NCTotalEclipse]

My car is auto too. (Never intended to mod) :nonono2: And I beat the hell out of it. I hope to find a 5 speed soon, b/c I can't take the sluggishness. But yeah, I drive my auto eclipse like it's an auto too. :lool:

[Juice]

Well... The difference being-- You can drive well (I assume) and he can't.

[AlphaAndOmega]

ur kinda wrong there...dado flogs the shit out of his car, not that he's a bad driver, its built for racing and thats what he does with it...but he could get hella more for his car because he doesnt just have bolt ons and wants to make his money bac, he has a compleatly built engine. even with that said i'm sure if he sold his car he still would take a loss on it.

[KidSteve]

how much will one cost in like 5 years? Will it be a piece of tin then or will it still be popular?

[SDice]

there is a 95 M3 in the tampa paper for $9500, didnt say how many miles or color, but I thought it was a good deal if it was in decent shape.
LOL my friend almost bought that...but he ran a check and it was in an accident, something else was wrong, and it had a ton of miles.

[inv3ctiv3]

You have to realize that the car has 56k miles.....16k is totally fair. I paid 12k for my '95 M3 with 106k.

[Juice]

Yeah, no kiddin'... I didn't think about that. That's quite a find.
