1995 M3 valuation

Anyone have an idea what a 1995 M3 with 163000 miles, good interior and exterior but engine and possibly drive-train problems should sell for on the East Coast?

please post what you would offer for this kind of car in described condition.

Thanks, Tom

A friend just purchased a pristine one owner '95 with many desireable upgrades (perfect leather interior, strut bar, new bilsteins, cold air intake, two sets of 18" wheels, etc) with 189,000 miles for $6900. Runs/drives perfect, no leaks/smoke/etc. Be aware that motor mounts can sometimes make you think the motror/drivetrain is shot.


Given what it will cost to rebuild an M3 motor ($5K?) or just redo a head ($2K) makes me think you're looking at max $2500-3500, but thats a WAG.

Without engine problems, I don't see it fetching more than $9000. That's a lot of miles. I think you can get a junkyard engine for around $3000. Add $750 for a transmission. Then, labor and materials. I wouldn't give more than $4000, and even then I'd be thinking twice.

FWIW, I recently paid $11k for a 96 with 94500 miles. Everything except suspension is great.

Wholesale value for a '95 M3 with 163,000 is around $5K. Condition is everything, repairs could equal or exceed the value very quickly.
