My 4 door m3 is one of only 3,500 with a 5 speed gearbox imported in 1997 and 1998. The car stock will sell for ~$10,000. I have a little over $6,000 in mods on the car. I am asking:

$14,000obo

Mileage: ~94,000
AM/FM/Cassette/CD
Leather

Mods:
Active Auto Werkes Stage 1 Performance package (http://www.activeautowerke.com/)
AA cold air kit
AA ECU reprogram
AA Cat back exhaust

UUC Front and rear anti-roll bars (sways) (http://www.uucmotorwerks.com/)

AST 4100 coilovers with adjustable ride height (http://www.vorshlag.com/)
Vorshlag camber plates
Rear adjustable control arms
D-Force 17*9 Wheels
12mm front spacers
5mm rear spacers
500lbs springs in the front
650lbs springs in the rear

The car is 95% setup for SCCA STU class (needs race seats). It is a good daily driver. Terry Fair from Vorshlag helped with the equipment setup (Fair was 2nd at nationals in STU 2 years ago).

PM or email me for a link to more pictures and/or questions about the car.

I am co-driving with Asher again this year and will not be racing the m3 so someone needs to buy it. The car is capable of PAXing in the top 5 anywhere that I have ran it in the local area and Asher has won over all a few times driving it. Hate to let it go but just don’t need it anymore.

So I see you and Asher are both selling your cars. What are you guys going to move into?

To anyone looking, I can personally say this is a VERY nice M3. Kerry was kind enough to let me drive it back when it was in BS trim at a divisional event. It's very clean, well maintained, and has the rare Mulberry leather color.

We (asher) has bought a 2007 Shelby GT and are moving F Stock. B Stock just had so many good driver and the RX8 was not a fun daily driver. We talked about a M coupe or a Vett but after nationals and watching the F Stock guys out run the RX8s in the Shelbies we knew we were going to have to buy one. I got a full size suburban to haul it around.

I have never even ran my M3 in STU with the mods that are on the car. I hate it but I just don't need the car anymore. I ran the car in BSP with some used up v700's for about 4 events. I out RAW timed a bunch of good drivers in fast cars. Someone is going to get a great daily driver that will pax high in regional autox events.

The car came out of Dallas, Tx. I am the second owner and have had the car for about 30,000 miles. I have done two inspection 2's to the car, a new clutch, radiator, hoses, belts, all fluids have been changed twice...

I hate to sell sell and my co-driver is asking me not to but it is just sitting in the garage for this year and someone that wants a STU car that is tame enough for daily driving should buy it.

I am coming up this weekend and can bring it and the title to anyone that wants it. Got to go see the in-laws. Come on autoxChris you know you can buy it.

Chris, you had a Bimmer once right, You need another right? And it could be (probably is) as fast as mine and less than half the cost. :roll: :shock: :lol: :roll:
Lets see, STU,BSP,SM,XP. I would pick STU. Street Tire classes rock. Dont have to change tires at the event. Drive up wax everyone, leave in the car. Sound fun? :lol: :lol:
