    What would happen if...

    ...you found two brand-new 1st gen M3 Evos with only delivery mileage? Before you decide, what if those M3s were joined by a Ford RS200? Oh, and throw in a Mercedes Benz 190E Evolution for the sheer hell of it.

    [ame=http://www.rsownersclub.co.uk/rsocbb/showthread.php?t=263734]Went to view a delivery mileage E30 M3 SPORT EVO - Forums @ The Ford RS Owners Club[/ame]
    I'm dropping out to create a company that starts with motorcycles, then cars, and forty years later signs a legendary Brazilian driver who has a public and expensive feud with his French teammate.

    I'd probably jump up and down like a schoolgirl.

    Epic find is epic.

    all witnesses would mysteriously disappear and there would be a new thread in the user's ride section.

    I would start counting the positive depreciation (appreciation), maybe still positive when taking inflation into account. I suppose the current owner is also the first owner.

    wow. Doesn't someone have to come forward to claim these? Doesn't it matter on whose property they were found?

    or is it just finder's keepers?

    Ok, so he didn't "find" find these cars, but here's how he scored them. My God. I would die to have just one of them. But to have all four of them?

    I am too lazy to read the entire post, but I'm pretty sure there has to be some type of price, one can't just pick any car and claim it as their own. If we could I would have a new Mustang right now!

    Price is mentioned in the context: "They agreed on it"

    I think that the person selling them wouldn't be a dummy and knew their market value.

    Still, I'd pay that. These look awesome. a Timecapsule of everything that was good about the 80's.

    That's freaking awesome.

    He also bought a 190 E Evolution II, although I believe that was mentioned earlier.

    Here's the original post.
