Buyer-facing read on this listing
Bid for the chance to own a 25k-Mile 1989 BMW M3 at auction with Bring a Trailer, the home of the best vintage and classic cars online. Lot #246,103.
This one currently reads below the comparable average by about $33,574, which makes documentation and condition the next things to verify.
Photo coverage is reasonably deep at 6 images, which helps with judging cosmetics and seller transparency before leaving VINthusiast.
Documentation still reads thin here, so this is the kind of listing where invoice detail and specialist history should drive the next round of diligence.
