    Car purchase?

    So Punch and I are having a disagreement on my possible new purchase. He suggested I get some input from the TCStangs crowd. So lay it on me.

    I totaled my car, or so the insurance company tells me. I'll be getting a very nice pay off for it. I'd like to buy another E36 M3. This is the one I have my eye set on right now:





    1995 BMW M3-TURBO second car from ACTIVE AUTOWERKS
    asking $22,500 or best offer
    car has been in several magazines!!
    1998 3.2 L 18,000 miles on motor, 57,000 on body
    Stage 1 Generation 2 Turbo kit 400 HSP at 10 PSI
    full electronic GREDDY system
    Front mount intercooler/ with additional fuel injection
    Clutchmaster Stage 5 Kevlair clutch/lightweight fly-wheel
    3 inch exhaust motor out
    all bushings and bearings replaced
    suspension redone-rides smooth
    Rear of car widened to fit larger tires {didn't like wide body kits so had professional autobody work done by head of RAY CATINA}
    wheels and tires- 2 sets, 19 inch symbolics SL-15 265 in rear 235 front
    18 inch fondmetals 245 in rear, 235 front
    Car was recently repainted. It runs and drives like brand new, car is fast and completely worked.
    Car has a lot more upgrades
    Car was rebuilt by AZEVEDO motorsports and can be viewed at their website azevedomotorsports. You can also see the process it under went in rebuilding the motor and turbo kit.
    I've spoken with the guy selling it and he's offered to overnight me the entire folder of receipts and work details that he's kept on the car in the 6 years he's owned it.

    It's a 1995 car with 57,000 miles, and the engine is a 1998 with only 18,000 on it. This engine was installed when the AA Turbo was put on.

    What does everyone else think?

        But yes, I may go for black as I was planning on my last M3. We'll see.

            Depends, how much are you paying for it?

                    Would you guys pay 22k for turbo m3? I mean the overhead on that car if it breaks is going to be crazy. Plus who knows how decent the tune is, how good the fuel system is, and if it's going to last.

                    I wouldn't touch someone elses project car personally.

                            I like it a lot... Im not that big of a fan of beamers, but that one looks awesome, and looks like it was taken care of... if the guy is even offering all those recipts to you, that seems like an honest person to me too... looks like a steal

                              That thunderstorm 2 weeks ago did it in. 2 feet of water.. Jumped out in front of me.. Swear to god. *SPLOOSH*

                              Two out of three streets leading to my house were flooded. I was one block from home and had all ready turned around to avoid one giant pool of water.. The second one got me. Never saw it coming through the down pour.
