BMW M3 (1999)
for sale

Price: US $1,025.00

Description:

I planned to use this M3 as a part time track car but family and work life have put a halt to my plans (for now). The fold down rear seats and Thule bicycle / snowboard holders add even more utility to a fun and practical daily driver. The car idles and cruises smoothly. It accelerates, handles and brakes like an e36 m3 with a quarter of the mileage. The aftermarket exhaust and cold air intake give the car a great sound. There is no rust on the vehicle.
Please check my feedback, I have sold several cars and motorcycles on Ebay. The most recent was a 2004 Nogaro Blue S4 Wagon where the new owner was very pleased with the overall transaction and condition / performance of the vehicle.
This M3 has a clean carfax record and well documented maintenance history. Over $2K spent in the past few months on new clutch, shift pins and tires. If you have any questions, please call Mike @ 714-707-0388. I am not interested in trades or selling parts separate from the vehicle. The car is located in Corona, CA ad has a clean, current and clear Oregon Title.
EXTERIOR
This example is clad in one of the most beautiful, desirable and iconic BMW colors ever, Estoril Blue. The paint shows very well with a few dings that a PDR operation could easily correct. The front end has rock chips commensurate with mileage. The wheels are in great shape with almost no rash.
INTERIOR
Interior and exterior are solid for a 16YO. This model came from the factory with no cruise control. The 99 models had the smaller, 3 spoke steering wheel and rear seat headrests. The interior (headliner, pillar covers, rear seats and door panels are in exceptional condition). Vader front seats were re-dyed by a less than detailed prior owner as they are more silver in color than their original dove grey (I planned on a pair of sparco's so it wasn't a big deal). The leather is intact however with no rips or tears although the driver side seat bolsters are showing their typical wear.
MECHANICALS
The S52 engines found in the OBDII (96-99) models are stout requiring minimal maintenance. The E36 chassis is intuitive & user friendly for the DIY-ers. There is an array of online community making the value of the e36 hard to beat. They are finally getting their due as demonstrated by their increasing value. The S52 makes great, 'around town' torque when compared to the S50 engines found in the 1995 versions. Apart from the suspension upgrades and aftermarket intake / exhaust, the engine and it’s peripherals are stock. Only OEM parts were used for maintenance.
ELECTRICAL
AC and heater work well. This example was not optioned with cruise control. Sunroof, Windows and all lighting function as they should.
