Hello. I found a well-sorted E30 M3 for what I consider to be a fair price. It has 90K miles, new clutch, new control arms, new front swaybar, new rear tires, front cross-drilled rotors, rear vented brakes. The chain tensioner has not yet been replaced. I couldn't scrutinize it as well as I wanted to since it was raining this weekend, but it ran and braked very well.

Nowhere on the Web can I find a good checklist of things to look for when purchasing an E30 M3. What should I be checking for? If I ran a compression test, where should the results fall?

Thanks for any info --
