I hope you aren't taking it to Martin Motorsports...

Where did you find the E30 M3?
It is very hard to find a E30 M3 in good condition.

You've got to scout ebay, autotrader, roadfly.com, and s14.net everyday (search 1988-1991 e30 M3) until you find the one you want. I did that for about a month and had about 4-5 e30's I was deliberating on. I pulled the trigger on this one due to the records, maintenance, condition, mods, and the seller was as meticulous and **** retentive as I am about his cars. It cost me an arm & leg (relatively) 24K- it was the best I was willing to afford.

I think you got a hell of a deal for 24k. Enjoy.

Nice stable. There's a sweet Alpina E30 M3 in my neighborhood, same color, maybe you've seen him around? I've been trying to catch up with the owner.
