Yahoo Autos This Low-Mileage BMW E30 M3 in Perfect Condition Just Sold for an Insane $250,000
The first-generation BMW M3 has had collector-car status for a while now, with prices steadily growing as collectors begin to realize what a special driving experience the car can deliver. Clean versions routinely sell for as much as brand-new M3s. But this perfectly kept, 8000-mile example painted in red? It just blew the whole E30 M3 market out of the water.
This M3, a 1988 model painted in Zinnoberrot over tan, just sold for an absurd $250,000 on Bring a Trailer. Yes, that is the correct amount of zeros. It's the most expensive E30 we've ever seen change hands publicly, blowing away prices for even the rarer, more powerful EVO models sold in Europe. Showing exactly 8099 miles on the odometer, the car looks absolutely flawless, with a perfectly reflective red finish, a seemingly untouched interior, and a spotless engine bay. A look at the underside would make you think this car just rolled off the factory assembly line—it's that clean. If any E30 is worth a quarter-million dollars, it's this one.
