After how many cars I've seen posted with 30k+ claims, it seems like every single person who moves to Vancouver is involved in a horrible car wreck upon arrival as if its some sort of rite of passage.
Like as soon as a car enters surrey or drives down kingsway its given a rebuilt title.

Plus there has to have been an event that caused the trans to fail, and who knows what else could have been damaged when that happened.

So I went on Autotrader (where cars are generally more expensive) and found 8 GTRs for about what that one will cost once it's fixed, give or take a couple grand. Whoever owns it is better off fixing it and then selling it if they want anywhere near that amount imo.

Been posted before, E46 M3 cab from Blitzkrieg ended up going to auction and it's back for sale again. Mileage is high but subframe was reinforced, sold at auction for $12,800 so there's room to bargain. 2003 BMW M3 Cabriolet For Sale |

That looks very nice. Take it for a PPI, like now.
Expect 100% to replace the cooling system the minute you drive it home if it hasn't happened already, so factor that in. Start saving for a full suspension bushing overhaul as well. That can be said about basically every BMW that is for sale ever though.

That GTR is a terrible buy, the guy managed to kill it in 30k miles?
Probably launched it a bunch, who knows what other damage he's done up in there, especially considering you can't take it for a drive and see if it's got any other issues.
I'd steer clear, not worth the hassle to try and save (potentially) a max of like 2 grand.
If he drops the price to like 40-45k, then it would be worth the gamble. At that point someone who wants to just gut the thing and send it to Switzer or AMS to get the entire thing built properly will scoop it up.

Rear seats were cut up real bad and the front passenger seat was stained beyond normal use.
Who knows what the fuck happened in there... |

Maybe its just me but that sounds really weird, bought it in march and looking to sell already? Also when people put "reps" on their car, I cant really trust them lol
And who takes a pic of their odometer liike that? LED foglights? Came from Calgary and never winter driven?
