    Bro 2011 M3 with only 40k miles, clean title, and blown engine for 16k is a STEAL. You scammed the seller, man. That full engine was what, 8-10k $? Bearing and whatnots another ~500-600$? Definitely worth, man, congrats on the find.

    Probably not a good idea to start it after 6 yrs with no oil in the bore

    Great video, looking forward to the rest! I have a 2010 M3 E92 DCT I bought at auction a few months ago and got it running and driving (was a flood car from AZ), and am now wrestling with rebuilding the title in my state. Nothing crazy, but the process can wear on you. :) Good luck with the rest of the project, can&apos;t wait to see how it turns out!

    for this low mileage and spec, I think 16k even with the blown engine is a super deal, cant loose on this one

    Good deal! Even with having to buy another motor! With the motor out you can do the bearing, vanos covers and maybe even the timing chain. And the great thing is you will have plenty of spare ignition coils, throttle actuators, and injectors!

    Can’t wait to see the progress on this!! This car deserves to live and it’s awesome you’re reviving it!

    good price IMO. at the end of the day it is still a low mileage example so everything thats not related to the engine is like brand new. If you got the engine for anything close to 10k its still decent. Great job got a new sub
