Handkerchiefs at hand, this is a beautiful story.

Forum user Tippey764 came during an auto show through behind the existence of the above M3 [E30]. Indeed, the holy grail of everything with a ///M-label. Tippey had the car in the real view and found the neglected old beast at an abandoned house somewhere deep in the forests of the U.s. state of Virginia. To everyone’s great surprise wrong the car is still in reasonable condition, the paintwork aside.

After some searching, the owner of the house opgesnord, but this appeared to be a idea to whom the BMW exactly belonged. A phone call with the owner learned that the M3 did not want verpatsen. After some persuasion, however. The owner had the car at the time, newly bought, but on an angry day, the engine would quit.

With the plan there ever again to have them look at the thing parked and to his fate. I finally figured it Tippey to the car with broken engine and paintwork in terrible condition – for only $ 2,500 on the head tapping. Nice deal, it seems obvious to us.

A few days later, the M3 already swept up, ready for a new engine and of course a fresh coat of paint. Unfortunately, finding the original S14 engine is a crime and so was there a subsequent S52 in spooned. Indeed, the six-cylinder block from the E36 M3. According to the purist probably sacrilege, but the M3 was in any case a nice and well deserved second life.
