ATTN: Rant on M3 Values (archive)

So I posted my car for sale at a high price (I know, I am a heretic, a non-believer, but I have my reasons for selling the M eventually but I am not in a rush) and I keep getting helpful e-mail messages from people saying "your car is priced too high"

Well all I have to say is fu*k off to people who are trying to lowball values on our cars, based on KBB/Edmunds, etc. The fact is that E30 M3's are rare (like more rare than the Porsche 930 turbo for example) and condition/maintenance/history play a MAJOR part in the value of a collector car like an M3.

If people want to pay book, value for a used M3, then they sould go find one at a used car auction or on a dealer lot.

Rant off.

Bill
