Wanted e90 m3

So with the E46 M3 going on my classic policy I'll be putting it away for the winter with the E34. As the E46 is my daily it means I'll have nothing to drive for the winter so I'm on the look out something a bit more modern and at least 4 doors.

So I was thinking an E90 M3. I've always preferred these over the E92, I love how they keep the longer front end in saloon form. Funnily enough there was 3 for sale at the same time last year on English plates but I had just bought the E46 so the timing was wrong.

I'd like something pre July 08 but will stretch for higher tax bracket if its a DCT.
Preferable rod bearings done, if not needs to be reflected in the price and the only must on my list is it can't be white.

So if anyone has one and is thinking of selling or knows someone thinking of selling they might point them in my direction.

Cheers lads.

If you aren't dead set on the E90 I'll be putting my E92 up for sale later this week

Detailed this car for Tony a few years back...it got the works back then and came up top notch...I'd imagine it's still 95% as good as it was then!! Cracking car and colour!

Could you pm me some details also, a friend of mine is looking for one
Thanks

lock it up. After telling myself I wasn't going to move on anything but an E90, I fell at the first hurdle but after seeing Tony's E92 M3 in the flesh I knew it was for me, not normally one for bold colours but the Melbourne Red just looks stunning. Credit to Tony and previous owners, going through the service history it looks like it always got what it needed. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...7bb2726653.jpg

Congrats on the purchase, I'd highly recommend an Eventuri plenum and primary cat delete for a wall of sound, you get much more of the V8 experience at much lower speeds with pretty much no downsides, there's no drone.

Unless you're on it, it sounds almost stock, you'd have to lose the cold start for the sake of your neighbors though.

Once you hear it, you'll find yourself a few €k lighter, if you're anywhere near Cork, you're welcome to have a listen to mine.

Cheers Dave, I have been watching the evolve videos of the eventuri plenum and the induction sound is amazing alright. I'm not quite sure I could justify the 2k+ at the moment as I'll be getting the rod bearings done first so that's looking like it's going to cost €1900 from the quote I got. I'm living in Douglas so I might take you up on your offer. the only thing, im afraid if I do hear it in the flesh I might be 2k poorer.

You're 10 minutes down the road from me :D
It's WAY better in the flesh than in the videos.

Let me know if you want any info re the rod bearings, I had mine done, and covered all the while you're in there's too.

Finbarr in Fionnsport is the guy to do the job.
