Availability of E36 M3 Saloon ??

[Duckypoos]

Hi all..

I've started to do some homework on buying an E36 M3 Saloon , with the sole intention of finding one in Arctic Silver with Black leather and a Manual box. It will be my first M3 , and the saloon choice is purely for practicality's sake.Also I like the more subtle / discreet lines of the saloon.

I wont be in a position to buy the car for a couple of months ( circa June ), but I want to make the RIGHT choice FIRST TIME !!

What exactly should i be looking for with such a car , with regards to pitfalls etc ?

Naturally I want a fully BMW stamped service book.

I'm 34 , with 5 years NCB , so insurance shouldnt be a problem.

Are their many cars out there with my desired options ? And , what kind of prices should i be expecting for a late a model as possible ?

Thanks for any help.

OOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooooooooo now there's a thought :-)

The more subtle the better.

Incidentally , an example in Avus Blue would more than likely sway me from solely wanting one in Arctic Silver ...


There are currently 2 nice examples here on piston heads :

Alas , 4 months too early for me to be in a position to buy them :-(

That's the puppy :-)

With the proper saloon Rims as well I believe ?

Check the beautiful interior of this Arctic Silver example currently up on autotrader :

No doubt the only one in existence with that spec interior though :-(
