I know, forget the AC. I'd like to find out whether that deer is still good for dinner...

Well, it IS in the engine so - "Deer - it's what's for dinner" gotta figure the heat would help the cooking

I'd never buy a car that's damaged in title. You never know what it's really been through...

And for a fast car, I'd want to make sure it operates properly! heh

I was searching for E46 M3's and I came across this 2008 M3 with 28k miles. FOR $45,000! http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAP...759.l1259#v4-33

Here's the catch, the car was hit by a deer....or a the car hit a deer And the title is DAMAGED, not SALVAGE.
All parts replaced with OEM parts and the seller claims no frame damage.

I know the manual will never be as fast as the new DCT but I have always wanted a manual and the red leather looks HAWT!
What do you think?

Thank you

-Krozi
Marc, no!
I'd take my chances with This blk/blk 4 door that has low miles and clean CarFax (owner even serviced @ 1500k as is required).....They have had the car since June, may be willing to part with it for $42k....you know they probably stole it at auction.

It looks pretty neat but I wouldn't do it with a deer in it! unless BMW certify that it sustains no damage...
