AutoCheck report came back with 1 accident and frame damage.

I would stay away from it.

Aaaaaand that is why it is still for sale :P I figured that there had to be a reason but again, ecru is not my cup of tea so I didn't look into it. I would still be happy to check out any dc area cars for you if you find the "one" and it just happens to be here.

Love the E46 M's. You should be able to get a convertible for $15k or so. I know that market well-helped my buddy look for one for nearly six months in Q4 of last year and we ran across many $15k cars. Laguna Seca is a beautiful color! So is the Phoenix Yellow...both very rare. SMG transmission is SWEET!!!!!
