      1988 BMW M3

      Overview

      With over $35k invested over the past year to restore it to like-new condition, this Diamond Schwartz E30 M3 looks to be very well sorted. It has recently had a glass-out repaint and the interior has been fully restored, and it is riding on brand new OEM BBS wheels and fresh Dunlop rubber. A childhood dream for many, we hope that whoever is lucky enough to snatch this one up enjoys it often on the best bits of twisty tarmac they can find. Documentation and photos of the restoration process are available.
