The BMW That’s Worth Five Times Its Original Cost Now

Although there are many BMW M3 E36 models out there, this one’s not like most of them. Its eBay listing detailed some interesting tidbits about this unique M3 GT, like how it was previously featured in a magazine. In fact, the seller was even willing to provide a mint copy of the Total BMW Magazine that showcased their exact car, along with the purchase. If that wasn’t enough, it was also driven by the late “Top Gear” host and decorated racer Sabine Schmitz.

The “queen of Nürburgring ” allegedly complimented the car’s set-up, which was extensively re-worked for racing specifications as its previous owner frequented the iconic German racing circuit. The seller claims this BMW E36 M3 GT was the result of its last owner’s “absolute labor of love,” and had since been outfitted with the best parts for racing, all while keeping the original engine intact. For a car that had as much as six owners in the past, it’s no surprise that its history is as deep as its owners’ pockets.
