First off, this is a great car. Gets 27 mpg in mixed city/highway driving, is comfortable for long road trips and a ton of fun in the twisties. It does it all, and I'm probably stupid for selling it, but I have my heart set on a more raw, connected driving experience. So...if you have an E36 M3 in GREAT condition, I'll consider a trade. Otherwise, I need to sell this so I can find one.

General breakdown:


2004 Imola Sedan - ZHP package (you all know what this entails, so I'll skip the specifics)
29K miles (I can have the dealer service performed before you take delivery), mostly freeway, though I did do a track day and an autocross
Oil/filter changed with Mobil1 every 5K
NEW tires - Pirelli PZero Nero F/R in stock ZHP sizes



Interior:


Interior is 10/10. Non-smoker car, always maintained, leather conditioned religiously
Black leather interior - perfect condition
Black cube trim
Alcantara steering wheel is in good shape, but could be replaced under warranty at some point



Exterior


Exterior is 9/10
Has a rock chip or two, but otherwise the ClearBra has done its job
3M ClearBra installed at the dealership
Still under warranty
18" CSL replica wheels - staggered/hyperblack
Front/Side/Rear clears (fender clears not pictured)
Your choice of HR Race springs or stock factory springs. HR springs are on it now, but it's much lower and requires attentive driving. The stock springs are a nice balance between performance and comfort, so they'll be included (or installed on the car before delivery if you prefer)
BMW Accessory iPod cable



I have all stock parts (lights, springs, etc.) except for the wheels. Everything will be included in the sale.

PRICE: $24,000

hmmm, very tempting....just out of curiosity, what would my near perfect e36 m3 98 5 spd with 82k miles be worth to you in trade? bbs 18" lm reps, 17"ltws, dinan software, intake, exhaust. zkws with hids bilsteins with teins, lots of extra parts.

Sounds like a nice car! I'll shoot you an email when I get home this evening.

Back up. I picked out my next DD (E30) and I'd like to move this car along. First reasonable offer gets it!

What type of warranty? CPO?
Also maybe i missed it but it is manual or auto? Pics of interior?

Standard BMW factory warranty.

It's a manual transmission. Pics of the interior to follow shortly. Everything's pretty much perfect.

Finally got around to snapping some interior pics. Note that the car was in the sun and these were shot with my point-and-shoot digital camera, so everything looks a bit lighter than it should. In person, the interior's a rich charcoal color.

Also, note that the car just turned over 30K miles! It goes in tomorrow for Inspection I. It will also receive a full professional exterior detail (clay bar, polish, wax, sealant) to remove some swirl marks and preserve the paint prior to being delivered to the final owner.

I think that just about covers it. If I'm missing something, let me know. I'm taking every effort to ensure that this car's next owner is overjoyed with the purchase. It's a great car and I'm going to miss it.

Is that the lowest you'll take?

wow thats intensely good looking. i would LOVE to have this car.

I've had a few inquiries related to price, so I'll address them here. I am willing to be a bit flexible on the price to see this car go to an enthusiast owner. I DON'T want to put it in the local paper and have somebody buy it as a sweet 16 present that'll end up wrecked in 6 months.

So...shoot me an offer if you want the car. I really love this thing and I'll own another Performance Package 330 in the future...I just can't justify the expense at this time.

Back up!

Bump!

pm sent....

All pms returned. Back to the top!

You can't go from any M3 to a non 'M' 3 series without being dissapointed in my opinion, even the E46 3's.

Very sexy car you got there. Very tempted to jump on this deal. ... Damn student loans.

Any interest in a trade for a '01 Z3 M Roadster (S54)?

The car is a GREAT deal at that price. Good luck with the sale.

do you by any chance believe in a 16 year old enthusiast?

Very pretty! I hope you are able to sell it! I've never liked Red though...

Thanks for the replies. Back up to the top!

Sweet car man!

Thanks bro!

Price drop - $24,000. Need this out of the garage.

BUMP! Tires are wearing thin, so the car will come with BRAND NEW Pirelli PZero Nero front and rear. Stock ZHP sizes.

Back up!

i still want to know if you believe there is such a thing as a 16 year old enthusiast and that there are 16 year olds that are very responsible and capable of taking great care of nice things... i.e. cars

Bump!

Nice car...
