I agree, however, E36 M3 prices seem to be going back up for some reason.

Just got this email regarding my crown vic.quote:Hello, If it's a scam, it's better written than most. I know Europeans sometimes do want to import American cars they can't get over there. Anyone have experience in this sort of thing, tips on how to check for a scam etc.? Edit: I googled his name, first result is his Facebook page with a P71 done up to look like an NYPD car, so I guess he's real. I just wish he'd emailed me before I dropped the price to $2100. Oh well, at least if this goes through I won't have to re-smog it... Pham Nuwen fucked around with this message at 01:00 on Jun 14, 2015 |

He or his agent shows up with cash, what does it matter where he lives?

# ? Jun 14, 2015 17:48 |

Usually the next thing is "my agent will give you a cashiers check for <amount+10k>, you wire the extra back to me" and then weeks later you hear from your bank that it turned out to be a fake cashiers check. Sounds legit though even without the facebook pics, those are all questions I would ask (aside from export stuff) as a rustbelt resident looking to buy a car in the southwest without a local friend to check it over for me first. He's basically trying to figure out if it has ever seen salt, thus the registration / title questions. Send him to autocheck or carfax with the vin, they are usually pretty solid on ownership transfers and such since that is almost always reported to the relevant authorities unless someone drove it for years with attached plates or something. kastein fucked around with this message at 18:10 on Jun 14, 2015 |

Most likely boredom and he also probably got the idea from just seeing a good deal on that car. I dunno about elsewhere but I'm pretty sure in Maryland you can just legally swap badges to say any make/model you want for like under $50 through online purchases and only a select few will ever notice in this case.

Not for a 325ix but for the right one, yes. I'll end up with another E30 in the next couple of years. Prices are going to drop over the next few years as more come into the country... I can't wait for the S50B32 M3s to start coming in.

I had a 1995 Plymouth Acclaim with the 3.0 V6 (same car as that). I don't know what the R/T poo poo is about, but unless they did something special, it's just a standard Mitsubishi V6 with a chrysler intake (that made the engine worse) and chrysler removed the DIS and replaced it with a distributor with vacuum advance (which made the engine worse). Otherwise it was bulletproof. Until my sister ran away from being T-boned in it, then subsequently took out two title loans on it in the same day (I have no idea how she pulled that off) and it was repossessed a year later. Kinda miss it. Definitely not worth $4k, though. Maybe $1000-1500 max.

The Spirit R/T was the turbo version. It's like swapping an M3 bumper on a standard 3 series.
