Can be closed --> WTB: BMW E90 M3 MT <= 20k$

[Edberto]

Hi guys,

In a few weeks I will be starting my 3 years assignment in the US (AL, Tuscaloosa) and therefore I am looking for an E90 M3.

In Germany I have already owned some BMWs from E36 to E90 but no M yet and this has to change since I simply love them!

The last car I built will now be sleeping for 3 years and she is an E90 as well with the N52B30 engine and was modded by me for track purposes

What exactly am I looking for?

Must haves:
- E90, no E92 or E93
- Less than 20k$ in any case
- Either good technical condition or cheap
- Low-mid (100k +- would be great) milage or already replaced rod bearings
- No major accidents which affected the frame
- Manual transmission
- Either good exterior condition or cheap
- Within 400miles from Tuscaloosa, AL or shipping possible
- No tan or beige interior

Would be awsome:
- Blue, red, green, gold colour exterior
- Alcantara interior
- LCI version
- No sunroof
- Some Performance parts already installed
- Heated manual seats
- Complete history known

If anyone is willing to sell his or her car or knows someone who knows someone ... who is and it is matching with the mentioned criteria, I would be happy about a message

Greetings, Eduard

Unfortunately this one is an E92
In addition the supercharger is bothering me since with it the car is more likely to pleasure me with engine mainenace when used on track or even as daily
But the carbon roof turned me on, which is not available on E90s
I'll be watching the auction anyway...

Thanks a lot for the hint!

Yes, I saw this one already and it looks like a good match as well, but the huge distance is tricky...
Need to contact the owner and ask about a solution with shipping.
But since I have no experience at all and would have to invest a lot of trust, this would be a tough step to do.

Unfortunately I am limited to 20k$

You must have been the guy who checked out the same E90 as me in Northport! Small world! Car needed some work so I'm passing, but good luck with your search!

[Edberto]

Indeed small world
Checked it, it was ok, but for my purposes and as daily driven the OEM or PP Exhaust has to be present and with this Gintani Race stuff I would freak out within a week

I will pass as well since completely nothing is known about the history, maintenance and service and for 20k and DCT instead of 6MT I have to continue searching ...
