Price: $22,500

I have decided to part ways with my M3. It has been a blast to own and it is an awesome machine. I have put on only 7,000 miles in 4 years since I purchased the car from California and wanted to keep it snow and salt free. It was a fun weekend car and I am selling to make room in my garage for a daily driver with xDrive to allow me to keep miles off of my truck (Tundra) and enjoy a much higher MPG option than my truck provides.

I purchased this car from a BMW enthusiast in California who did all of the performance modifications. I never adjusted them and left them all the same (details below) as I loved the setup. The car runs, drives, and sounds amazing. I am sure I am biased, but I guarantee it is one of the best sounding naturally aspirated BMW’s you have ever heard. This is a rare 4 door 4.0L V8 6MT that rocks. My family and I enjoyed many summer drives in the hills of Vermont and New Hampshire and I am sure it will not disappoint.

Minor issues worth calling out:
1) The navigation stopped working earlier this year. I never used it, so I didn’t do anything about it. I have no idea if it’s just a fuse or something more significant. Every other function in the system works perfectly fine.
2) The front passenger door lock/actuator does not go up and down. The actual door locking mechanism works and it was like this when I bought it. I didn’t see the point in fixing it as it did nothing and the door lock itself works just fine.
3) The car has some minor blemishes, but nothing that stands out. There is one dime size door ding on the rear driver side door. Front end has some rock chips and hood has about 2-3 small ones. Nothing out of the ordinary enough for me to post pictures of. Normal wear on a 10 year old car.
4) The rims have some paint that is chipped off on the extreme outer edges due to using a car wash that I should not have used...
5) The driver front airbag and blower motor recalls need to be done as I have not had a chance to get to the the dealership as its 1.5 hours away from where I live – I am happy to get this done before a sale is final if it helps – just need to plan it out and avoid a day where there is salt on the roads

Under my ownership:
1) Removed the front tint to ensure it would pass NH inspection (passed every year with no issues including exhaust upgrades)
2) Replaced the wheels and tires to have the ZCP/BBS style wheels (Avant Grade M359 Hyper Silver wheels with Hankook Ventus V12 EV02 tires – 245/35/19 (front) and 275/30/19 (rear))
3) Ensured the car was professionally assessed by a local BMW specialty shop inclusive of an oil change at 62,000 and 65,000 miles
4) Replaced the rear brakes (OEM) and all brake sensors (OEM) inclusive of a brake fluid flush/replacement (OEM)
5) Garaged the car year round and covered it during winter months
6) Started/rolled the car once a month during the winter months to keep the battery charged and avoid flat spots in the tires – no issues
7) Used fuel stabilizer (Star Tron) to ensure it would not have fuel issues while sitting or if I ever got a bad batch at the pump (always filled up with 91 octane or higher)

I've been looking at 2009+ 6MT E90s but this one is interesting to me. I wished you weren't clear across the country but still open to it. Email sent!

I got your note - responding now with the details.

I shipped it from CA in 2014 and it wasn't too bad.

Wow. This is an absolute steal! GLWS!

[spazzyfry123]

Excellent deal! You're going to sell this ultra quick at that price.

Had I not JUST bought a daily, I'd be on my way.

Thank you. There are not a lot of these in the Northeast (hence why I had to get it from CA). So, I hope to hear it roaring down the streets in the future...

See updated post for more photos of the minor paint issues and service history. Sorry the interior ones are not so good, it's dark out...

Everything about this is so right except the timing. Beautiful car!! GLWS northeast friend!
