Default Fo Sail/WTT: '99 BMW M3

I bought this car a few months ago and despite loving how great of an all-around car it is, I simply want something with a V8. It handles amazingly, has great power/torque, seats 4, has all the creature comforts, and no issues. A/C blows cold.

Trades: Doubt I'll get much on here but worth asking. V8 preferred, no Mustangs, Merkurs, boats, bikes, trucks, SUVs.

My car:

1999 e36 M3 (last and best year that the e36 M3s were made)
180k miles
5 speed
Clean/Clear title in hand
$8500 obo

-Factory DINAN carbon fiber intake
-Factory DINAN injectors
-Factory DINAN software ("chip")
-Fern Green Metallic exterior with black/tan interior.
-Vader seats (highly valued)
-BBS RK Plasma 17x8 wheels squared (highly sought after) with brand new Continental ExtremeContact DW tires (245/40/17)
-UUC short shifter
-UUC System U Catback
-Aftermarket headunit that plays anything and is SiriusXM capable. The lights are customizable and can look stock orange so it blends in well
-HK speakers up front with BSW (expensive) speakers in the rear deck with closed pods. Has some good quality bass
-Sunroof
-New 18% tint on driver/passenger/rear windows. Was done at Palmetto Pro Tint using their best film. NOTE, tint is not shown in the pictures because I took them a week before I had it tinted.
-Digital Climate Control unit
-Full size spare with new Michelin Pilot Sport tire
-Cruise control
-Fog lights

Not Pictured:

- Only the first picture shows the tint.
- The new tires aren't pictured
- I replaced the darker tan floor mats with OEM black M3 mats that look 10x better. Will include the darker tan ones too.

Maint:

-All cooling system components, struts, and bushings were replaced by previous owner. All problem areas of these cars were addressed. It handles VERY sharp and responsive.
-Just did an oil change with Castrol Synthetic EuroBlend 0w-30
-Clutch is thought to be an upgraded M5 clutch, according to a knowledgeable BMW enthusiast. Engages well and doesn't slip at all.
-NO check engine light or otherwise, except for a common SRS (airbag) light that could simply have been triggered by a faulty seat belt sensor or when the door panels were taken off by the previous owner to upgrade speakers.
-No mechanical issues at all.

Bad:
-There is a small tear in the driver seat bolster, bottom cushion. I got quoted by an automotive upholstery business for $150 to fix it. Can pass that on to you.
-Small dent in the hood, right above the kidneys from the previous owner when a guy backed up into him in a parking lot. It doesn't affect functionality or "that" noticeable, but I want to be honest and upfront.

This really isn't a bad deal, with that color and the options you have. GLWS

Just wondering do you have a picture of the DINAN plate in the engine bay? I think that where they locate them
