Bump for my buddy! This car is sick!!

 

Any timeslips or dyno charts?

 

Very nice car but the price is . Good luck with the sale though. Free bump for a sweet ride....

 

dyno attached

 

$22k on KBB for a stock 02 M3 with 48k miles. Used s/c, motor build, install, and tune ($15K), used 4 wheel BBK ($4k), and used KW v2s $1k. That's already $20k, so you get the rest for free.

 

Very cool.

 

You can get a 63 for that price!

 

price is out of wack

 

if you're not interested, then move on. no reason to crap on the thread.

 

price drop to $40k

 

I have a Dinan Supercharged M3 with full BMW warranty I tried dumping it for 38K and its an 05' you're not gonna get close to that just saying...cuz ive been trying for months.

 

Wow, all I get is this kind of comments from this forum.

Did Dinan build your motor? Is it stroked? Do you have all the other mods I have on mine? Obviously I'm looking for a buyer who doesn't care about warranty.

 

Once you get rid of your car for 40k+ then you can comment on previous post as BS posts.

People here are just trying to let you know that the chance of someone paying close to your asking price is very slim, especially in the current economy and the prices other high-end cars go for.

Good luck though from me too.

 

Generally speaking, those kinds of mods don't raise the value of your car. No warranty and big work under the hood...takes a very rare buyer.
Please don't take offense as it's nothing against you or your car. It's a sweet ride and some buyer will be very lucky to have it. The price needs to be $10k less with "obo" behind it however....

 

haha this is hilarious its no wonder the car still hasnt sold, priced at least a good 10k above value...what can you expect

 

Your assessment on my asking price is not based on having sold a similar M3 but merely your opinion based on the market correct? I am not a newbie when it comes to selling modified vehicles. I had sold 3 other modified cars of mine before and I am well aware of how this goes, but I appreciate your input. Similar stock M3s can be sold for $20-22K. If anyone would want to build up the motor, add s/c, tune, etc. for this car it would run a good $12k-$15k already depending on used or new parts. If you factor in all the rest of the mods at understated prices ($3k bbk, $2k wheels, $1K suspension, $1k stereo & interior, $1k exterior), $40K is reasonable. Having said that I would need to find the right buyer who wants to do these modification to the car.

 

add 10k and buy NEW 2009 M3

 

Yea but that new **** there will still get smoked by this one...

 

Nice car................but if you want to sell it you should strip it and put it back to stock. Sell the car as stock and then sell of the aftermarket parts as that is the only way to recoup SOME of your investment.

 

Sure, but the swapping a stock motor back in? I did that with my previous 350Z and it was not worth the trouble.

 

sick car, that's for sure... (CF everywhere)
best of luck with sale...

 

SOLD for asking price

 

Congrats Ronnie!

 

good stuff ronnie.............more mod money for the GTR now....LOL
