Thanks, its not bad for an '88. By no means is it perfect, but it fits my needs/wants. and based on the production date I was 2 years old so I don't expect a mint car

p.s. 175k on the clock and many more to come

The pricing varies dramatically. I've seen some as cheap at $8k in horrible condition, up to $50k+ mint with very low miles. Average under 100k miles I would say are running between $20-25k

This one is not mint, but very well maintained by an enthusiast. It was priced at the lower end.

The e30 M3 is hands-down the best there ever has been. Gorgeous car, if I ever come across the e30 for me I won't hesitate to buy it/

You will enjoy your brains out on the twisties.
I would get an E30 M3 over an E46, it's that good.

very nice example! It's funny, most of the E30's I see are either silver or red.
