*Will trade, especially for an rx7*
*Price is negotiable*

Selling '97 M3 Turbo with 163k miles completely rust free. Has a rebuilt title I can point out the repairs done in person, the damage was caused by an accident to the passenger rear corner. The suspension is aligned and everything is straight and I have an alignment spec sheet to prove it.

Car is capable of 550whp easily. Could push closer to 600whp as it sits. I can go over the limits of all the components if interested. More horsepower can be easily made with some tweaks. The tune and injectors are capable of up to 900whp.

RKTunes full time e85 (115lb injectors) tune, can be tuned to run pump but the power will be limited
Car is still running stock 10.5:1 compression because E85.

Bump.
Willing to negotiate.

Still for sale.
Make an offer.

The salvage title and fact that it doesn't run well probably isn't helping.

Then use that to negotiate a better price, someone could get a hell of a deal on a built car.

You have every right to ask whatever you want, but it sounds like you don't even believe your asking price is reasonable.

People may be hesitant to offer something at market value or "he'll of a deal" price if the gap to begin negotiating is too wide.

Yea good point, I actually had a friend who insisted starting high who usually has good luck selling cars. Maybe I won't listen to him next time lol.

It sounded fun until it needed a tune and had a misfire on a heavily modded car. bmw's love to misfire and chasing that problem is not fun.

Final tune is included in the purchase I just have to send a datalog back to RKTunes.

Will the misfire be fixed as well?? It seems pointless to get a tuned on a non 100% running vehicle.

Clean car however!

That's why I haven't sent back for the final tune, when I get the time I am going to clean up the intake piping so it goes through the maf better so it doesn't misfire and then send back for final tune. It has a 2.75 to 3 inch increase in diameter fairly close to the maf which I plan on getting rid of when I get around to it I just haven't had time so the new owner can do it if they'd like or if no one wants to buy a car and do that I'll fix it myself when I find time.
