GarageScout Take

Long-term ownership anchors an extensively reworked E30 M3, with the 2024 S52 conversion paired to a Getrag 260 rebuilt in 2023. Carfax damage disclosures and Salvage/Rebuilt title brands, including the current Florida title, weigh against the documented history.

Strengths

  • North American E30 M3 production identity, with approximately 5,300 examples produced.
  • S52 engine conversion paired with a rebuilt Getrag 260 gearbox and 3.46:1 limited-slip differential.
  • Documented current ownership since 2001, with approximately 50,000 miles added during that period.
  • Red leather reupholstery and silver repaint, both reported as completed in 2001.

Watch For

  • Carfax entries document damage disclosures and Salvage/Rebuilt titles, and the Florida title carries a Rebuilt brand.
  • The car was repainted in 2001; photos show chipped paint on the right-front fender and a dent in the left-side door.
  • The 17-inch ASA wheels have some dents.
  • The car has extensive modifications, including the S52 engine conversion, suspension changes, aftermarket lighting, exhaust, audio, and interior alterations.
