Nah, there's two in USA, similar year, miles, color, for 90kusd each, and they have been for sale for over a year

100kusd is the Canada tax price, and someone will probably pay it

That 323ci is probably a flip because I saw a very similar example from Port Moody on Marketplace last year that was listed for 7K.

The 323ci convertible was a 1 year only model with the oddball M52tu engine. Different exhaust and intake on those engines. I would go with a 2001+ car with the M54 engine with the throatier exhaust.

$15k is really steep, well into E90 territory, but $15k ain't gonna get you an M3 unless if its a high mileage SMG cabriolet.

I mean if you're gonna spend $15 on a base, m3 isn't that much of a stretch

https://vancouver.craigslist.org/pml...607713336.html

https://vancouver.craigslist.org/rch...603574302.html

This is rebuilt so I'm sure there's room to negotiate

I’ve spent time with both and would rather daily a manual 330i vert over an M3 all day, especially an SmG one with 200k kms

15k for a 20+ year old 330ci does seem like a lot, but that just seems to be the market now. Even sub 10k NA miatas are becoming more rare if it's not smashed to bits. An extra 10k for an M3 is not "isn't that much more".

^^ I doubt this market will last, I feel like it's collapsed already there's a lot more cheap beaters on the market, that's sitting for much longer, these are just dreamers with their top dollar pricing. Given how interest rates are and economy as a whole I doubt there's a bunch of guys lining up to throw $15k on a none M e46

It's funny cuz I know there were a ton of ppl that paid 46k+ for Golf Rs that are now 39.

Imagine pissing away 7k cuz you were too horny to wait a few months.

Not bad. 24k for a 2007 sc430. Only problem is it’s 172,000kms.

The market for used cars sucks right now.

The E46 is a good chassis, but sometimes you see E30s within reach, like this one:

https://www.facebook.com/marketplace...ibextid=dXMIcH

It doesn't have the plastic bumpers, but any E30 that isn't beat up and rusty has instant respect.

All the discussion made me look at the wider field, and the options for a 4 seater manual convertible that's remotely fun to drive are super limited. At around the ~10-15k budget, I'm either looking at a E46/E90, a S197 Mustang, and then it drops off real quick to something like a Beetle or a Cooper. Wranglers are also overpriced right now.

G37 vert buddy guy, it's hard cuz manuel and the back seats are pretty much useless in a 4 seat vert.

I never drove the mustang GT vert, but I drove the v6 before in Hawaii and it was a fine car. Back seats are uhhh semi usable and dynamics are decent. You don’t lose out much compared to the coupe.

They used to be quite cheap even brand new. I figured used prices must be decent on that mustang.
