I like the rims on the car and would like a set myself. The only other person with these size i've seen is Uwe's monster. These are rare rims at 17".

I've been there before he has a small workshop no paintshop, he basically buys and sells cars mainly M3's cos he loves them. He seems a pretty genuine bloke for a dealer.

On the paint, I've seen 2 other M3's in Macau that
were not special editions or evo's.
'andrewinuk' has one. His also has evo spoilers
from the factory.

I had a 1990 Macau blue M3 convertible in 1993, so the colour was around then on E30`s. I don`t recall it being special order paint, but I was actively trading BMW`s in those days and do remember a few Macau blue cars that theoretically didn`t exist.
It would seem a very late registration for a Europameister.

I don't think it was a special order paint for the convertibles, but an option.
It wasn't an advertised option for the 'standard' M3's but I wonder if perhaps given, unofficially, if anyone was adamant enough to demand it?

Hi Guys,
Dave is right, I have a 1990 Macau Blue with evo 2 spoilers from the factory. I bought it from ML who also stated that it had a 220hp engine. They said that there were a few "parts bin specials" standard cars produced in the last 2 years of the the production run.... how would one confirm this??

Probably best to get the original spec sheet from your local BMW dealer who should be able to print this out for you.
BTW has you car got the late striped cloth interior? The last cars did indeed seem to come pretty well equipped. I guess BMW must have been giving some good deals to shift the end of line vehicles in readiness for the new improved E36 M3.
