Seem to remember the owner was taking it back to N.I. when I saw him at Sytner back in 2011.
There was a Red E92 B3S for sale at the same time, didn't go for it as it had a black interior :?

Just seen this on Collecting Classic cars. Hellrot is a cool car colour you dont see much of anymore.

I do like this in Red but my eye is constantly drawn to the different colour front wings and those stripes. :P

Front edge of the bonnet around the grilles is same wrong Hellrot colour shade as the wings, too, as is the front bumper and splitter. Wonder why they didn't finish the graphics off on the bumper/spoiler? The points mentioned really detract from an otherwise tidy car: whoever paint-matched it needs a trip to you know who 8)

And while we're at it, the mis-matched grills should be an easy fix :lol:

:roll:

I'd not read the description as the car looks so wrong I wouldn't be interested. But having just done so, I see it's had a full paint correction. Why bother when it looks like that?

Lovely combination as mentioned something you don't see often. The mismatch wings would keep me up at night.

This seems to be about the going price of E46 B3 3.3 examples based on a few that have been through the same process recently. I recall #170 (my old car) made a similar figure and then went on to a buy it now and didn't sell at £8,100.

https://collectingcars.com/for-sale/200 ... -3-3-coupe

This one made £8,500 but lower miles - https://collectingcars.com/for-sale/200 ... 3-33-coupe

And this one made £7,550 back in 2020 and is coming back to CC very soon - https://collectingcars.com/for-sale/200 ... 6-b3-coupe

Given the above, I'm not sure why owners are holding out for more if using the same platform unless they all see this one and think theirs is an equivalent - https://collectingcars.com/for-sale/200 ... a-e46-b3-s
Currently:
1992 Alpina B2.5 #026, Lagoon Green with Parchment Cloth

Previously:

2001 Alpina B3 3.3 Coupe #170, Orient Blue with Grey Leather
2006 Z4MC, Silver Grey with Red Leather
2001 E46 330i Sport, Silver with Red Leather
1997 E36 323i SE Touring, Calypso Red with Grey Cloth
