11.5k is serious money unless its an evo sport. It has the evo sport interior and rear spoiler but the rest looks more like a standard M3. A good price if its a real sport evo, a bit pricey if its not.

It has an evo 2 chin spoiler, non suede steering wheel and handbrake but it does have the correct seats, HT leads, rear spoiler and brake ducts

i thought all evo 3's came witht eh evo chin spoiler...alas further research shows this is untrue, so the question remains, is it an evo3 or not?

God damn I'd be kicking myself, especially if it turns out it was a sport evo!!

It seems to have most of the right bits, it still has the original front splitter, but added onto the lip spoiler...

Forgot to say, most owners replace the suede parts as they look crap after a week of use, and keep them nice for show days etc, so easy to replace them!

imo definitely a sport evo. the only thing that isn't sport evo on the pics is the steering wheel/gearknob. the front spoiler is a sport evo one (not evo2), see the adjustable bit underneath it? same with rear spoiler. plus the seats and plug leads would cost a fortune to retro-fit (and why the hell would you retro-fit sport evo leads???). door cards are correct for the seats too which may suggest its unlikely to be a retro-fit.. the 'big green' injectors are only sport evo too.
absolute bargain either way as its near enough a sport evo!!!

Mirror looks like it has maplights, and also, in the second pic, it looks like it has grabhandles? If so, then a sport evo shouldn't have these fitted.

looked a bit more closely at the front lips, think i can see the difference now. so the evo 2 ones are more meaty? mb the owner did it cos it looks cool!

I think I have decided what I want!!! That looks bloody awesome! The wheels, the interior the look holy smokes! :woohoo:

How much do these evo sport 3's go for and do they come exactly like that? i.e wheels, interior etc?

Anybody got one of these or know loads about them and is on msn?

That look pretty standard to me. Options varied from bmw. The wheels look aftermarket, but the interior (if it is a evo 3 which i suspsct) will (or should!) be in them all.

Me thinks its a Sport, if its not then the owner has gone through alot of effort to fit Sport bits!

The tele tales are the front wings, seats and red belts.

The only real way is to check the engine and also the VIN.

But looks like a Sport to me.
