Hello All,

The time has come for me to sell my beloved Melbourne red M3 sedan. This has been a great car and has never left me stranded. It’s mostly stock with some choice additions.

Quick specs:
2 owners / clean title no accidents
6MT
2010
Melbourne red over bamboo beige
Double hump
Sunroof
Premium sound
PDC
Comfort access
Split fold rear seats
Rear sunshades

Background:
I bought this car in February of 2021 from the original owner who lived in Windsor, CA (wine country). It was an older gentleman that treated the car well. It has been in California and garaged it’s whole life. I have a giant book of maintenance records from PO from even when the car was new, and most of the services were done by various bmw dealerships in the Bay Area. I acquired the car with about 68k miles. Over the course of the last two years, I have put about 14k miles on it. I have daily driven it and also taken it on long drives. I have taken it to Sonoma and Monterey many times. It currently has just over 82,400 miles as of 4/3/2023 and won’t change much as only drive it every once in a while now.

Under my ownership, I have paint corrected the exterior and gone through the interior very well. I’ve added fresh floor matts, new windshield rubber trim, center console trim, new shift knob, shift boot and e brake boot. I have repaired the rear sunshade as well. This car is very clean for its age and mileage, a really solid driver grade m3.

Mods included with the car:
Ultimate clutch pedal (oem included)
IND Paint matched reflectors (oem included)
Zhp shift knob
Colby wheel- tri color shift boot and e brake boot
Tune2air module (allows for Bluetooth audio streaming like 2011+ models)
Lux angel eyes
Bpm sport stage 2 tune (I used this for a couple thousand miles then removed due to smell of running a catless x pipe)

Maintenance:
*Rod bearings have not been done
1 throttle actuator was replaced at 35k
Thermostat and temp sensor done at 38.5k
Power steering and coolant flush at 45k
Valve covers were done at 62.7k
Fuel tank breather valve done at 63k
Brake fluid and air intake filter done at 65k
Battery replaced at 67.5k
2 new camshaft position sensors on intake side done at 72k
Spark plugs done at 78k
Last oil change done at 78k
Motor mounts done at 81k
*I have more receipts of other items addressed as well


The reason for the sell is that I have replaced this e90 with another e90 but with the comp pack and a dct.


Thanks for reading.

Thank you! Yes and if you want an LCI, you are looking at 126.

Given that the take rate on manuals for the sedans was about 30%. This is probably a one of 38 LCI red sedans with a 6 speed.

Free bump because you took the time to present your for sale properly.

I got an inquiry about mentioning how I took the car to Sonoma and Monterey. To clarify, I did not take the car over there for track events. Just for leisurely things like wineries with friends and Car week. I wanted to clear it up for anyone else that might have interpreted it that way and lost interest. This car has not been tracked before. I have taken it on back roads though.
