A rotary driven at low rpm and never flogged on for 60,000km's. Probably needs an engine. Need to drive rotaries hard for longevity, do you not?

With 209k km I don’t see the value here. This car is worth 18-20k max. The interlagos one that popped up was more appealing and way lower mileage (55k km)

Last year I almost pulled the trigger on a rebuilt one for 10k. The damage was very minor but they did a shit job on the repair and basically needed repainting. I kick myself for not getting it. It had like 130k km but smg (this was the main reason why I was hesitating) but it would have been like 2k-4K to get that car sorted out

E46 M3s aren't worth 28K+ imo. There's none in the market under 150K km. Granted, I might have just had such a good buy that everything else doesn't seem of value.

This specific M3 was last sold on the island with BMW performance CF strut bar (rare) and was 24K in the summer iirc

I've never bought and sold a car purely to profit on it... or like... held back the transfer papers so I don't pay tax and just sign it over to another buyer lolol... but I've definitely jumped on a few cars here and there I was interested in that I knew would go up in value or that I would like to drive for a bit and fix a few things and then sell it for more than I bought it for.

I guess I'm more like tofu sometimes hahaha

3rd owner selling already after only few months? What you expect with a mileage of 200+ kms. Probably found out it will soon be a paper weight.

More like the market prices went up significantly. 200+kms used to be around 18K. Now it's 28K lmfao
