Need Help With Current Price Ranges of 97-98-99 E36 M3 Coupes!

[Slapshot1]

I've been looking at many sources, and prices seem to be all over the place for these years. Obviously, mileage and condition plays a big factor. I'm looking for a 97-98-99 coupe, standard transmission, well equipped, as close to mint as possible.



I would greatly appreciate some guidance of price ranges for what I described so I can understand what asking prices are within reason and what point to negotiate from. I've checked Edmund's and Kelley Blue Book, but their listed prices are all well below what the market seems to be for these, so I dont really know what to base things on.



Any assistance would help immensely. Thanks.

I'd say Saltshaker's price range is a bit high unless you find one with under 40000 miles on it. But it does really depend on mileage and condition...I'd ballpark 12K with some work needing to be done to 16K for a decent one...or you could get really, really lucky like me and pick one up for $10.5K...lol
