Well... considering that the alternative to a a rebuilt e30 is this $100k+ e46 M3:

https://www.autowestbmw.com/vehicles...d/bc/57010044/

I would have to say the e46 is the crazier of the two...

I don’t get why the e36 gets no love. It’s a really good amalgamation of e30 and e46.
Love the boxy look.

Other stuff they have listed is high, but not nearly that far out to lunch. I don’t know how they pulled that number out. Ones they don’t want to sell just say “a member of our collection”

Slicktop in a cool colour might get close to that ask down south. There was a very nice local built CSL replica that sold a few years back in the $60k range, now in WA.

The "not a real M car" trope is the most tired garbage. It's 50hp more than the e30 m3 and a better car by every measure other than looks/nostalgia and racing provenance. The e30 is better than literally every car in terms of racing provenance so that's no surprise. The s52 is 46hp less than the s50b30 and everything else is the same other than the headlights.

Yes but you can get a e90 6mt for half the price, less tin can, faster? And less vintage car problems.

Half the price of what? An e46? Absolutely not. E90s are cool but they have WAY more problems than any of the M3s before them. Routine maintenance bills are 8 throttle actuators and rod bearings. You can’t even get one for cheaper than an e46.

The e90 is nowhere near as cool as the e46/36/30

S65 has plenty of character, it’s the issues surrounding it that have brought it down. A part of me thinks I’ll let go of the 300 and go back to an e90/92 one of these days for the noise alone
