Not real m3, swapped 325i, low K and lots of nice parts. I seem to remember it being for sale many years ago when I bought my old e36. Unless there is another racing dynamics swapped e36

This is the car I PPI'd before I bought my current car.
It had a laundry list of issues, but all of them could have easily be taken care of.
The motor, and no joke here, was the most incredible driving experience I have had in a car. I'd be surprised if the 343hp he quotes in his ad isn't WHP. Its well over 100hp/L 8kRPMs of throttle cable driven raped ape. Its astounding. I was set on having an M3 rather than something that was turned into an M3, so I passed. I'd strongly consider a look if you are in the market for something insanely fun and capable, or a base for a track car.
Check the brakes, subframe, and valve adjustments specifically, or better yet, take the car to CG as they have already PPI'd it at least once.
This car is a cage and some harnesses away from my idea of a dream track car, provided the issues have been taken care of. The fact the owner has owned it for the last 5 years makes me strongly believe they have.
Shame the racing dynamics k32 badges are gone and replaced with the (blasphemous) M3 badge.

It absolutely is not.

Been on sale for months. The previous owner sold it for under $3000. This ratchet head bought it and priced it at $6000 and has been lowering the price ever since.

Notice how he won't take $3000? Dog forbid you make $100 on a flip.

I'm not surprised that Blitzkrieg has been having trouble selling that car. It's neat, but how they can justify $150,000 is beyond me.

With 4987 made (according to Wikipedia) I wouldn't call it:

I think your info may be wrong. This car is one of 200. Last one I saw go for 135kusd on BAT although it was quite a bit nicer.
Edit sorry: I was under the impression it was an evolution at that price. I don’t know enough to say whether it is or not.

I was about to say, this is the somewhat common version, the 2nd Gen more watered down version. Think Euro e36m3 vs usdm e36m3. When they first got it in they didn’t post a price. I inquired expecting ~70k lol definitely not 150. Good luck

whoa. cheap.

higher km, but good excuse to swap to a bigger turbine and find an evo parts car for the intercooler.

essentially a watered down evo - no brembo and fancy AWC with narrow body work.

great cars and decently reliable.

At least it’s still AWD, that’s enough for most people

The Ralliart is turbo & AWD? What years? Are they available in manual?

No manual. Twin clutch (forget what Mitsu calls it) only IIRC.

But there's a hatch/wagon version available!

tofu1413 02-27-2018 02:37 PM

yeah they shared the same SST transmission as the EVO MR.

the only difference is the Evo has a sport + mode or something iirc. but theyre identical.

most came with the heated recaro seats too!


add a nav unit with USB and you got yourself a good daily. decently safe as well, they have pretty strong structures on these cars.

super cheap point of entry to get into actual 4B11 motor!



higher km at 275... but didnt know a RL could be this cheap!

https://vancouver.craigslist.ca/rds/...500838133.html

A spec kit too!

Had no idea the Ralliart was turbo AWD. Just assumed it was NA.

I miss my 04 Acura RL. Great car. Only complaints were less than luxury interior and the 3.5L V6 was underpowered yet I got the same gas mileage as a 4.0 1UZ Lexus V8.

asian_XL 02-27-2018 05:47 PM

I thought ralliart was an answer to subaru WRX?

Dbone 02-27-2018 08:25 PM

More than you'd ever want to know about the R5

It doesn't look like an evolution to me, but I'm not expert on these things.

If mid engine hatches are your thing, you could get one for a lot cheaper if you import a Clio V6

Dbone 02-27-2018 08:27 PM

Sorry duplicate.

Now the ad seems much more in line with what I'd expect from BMC. Overpriced and exaggerated specs.

Price is too good to be true. Place my bet that its likely a fake ad.
