Asking Price:

Sold

Item Interest

Hi Folks,

Lately I've had the itch to get into a E90M3 with a manual gearbox. If worst comes to worst and I move forward I would just buy and sell my current car but wanted to post this up and see if there was any interested in a potential swap first.

Some details on the car, I am the 2nd owner, Car was a Denver car and brought to Michigan. It was driven during the summer months and always garaged its entire life. I moved near the west coast a few years ago so the car is now located in the Vegas area. It's been well maintained and have plenty of documentation of that maintenance history.

Options:
2009 w/ 118K Miles (slowly going up as its my primary daily)
Interlagos Blue Exterior
Black leather Interior
DCT
Navi
Cold Weather Pack
Carbon Leather Trim

Mods:
Carbon (2x2) Front Splitters (IND)
Painted Front Reflectors (IND)
Custom Front X-Pipe (catless)
Eisenmann Race Rear Section
2x2 Rear upper Diffuser (ebay, dont recall where I got this, have gone thru a few of them)
Fancy Wide Rear lower Diffuser
Aluminum Side Skirt Extension (unsure of brand)
EC-7 Wheels (18 x 9.5) on 265 PSS's (front are 4-5k Miles, rears will be brand new (had a blowout recently and just had a conti tire mounted to get me home)
StopTech BBK (6/4 Pot) 350MM
H&R Lowering Springs
10MM Front H&R and 5MM Rear Spacers
Mache Shnell 75MM Stud kit
Evolve Tuned (Motor and Trans)
Custom Headlights (I've done them, had done this for many others)
Original ///M Colors stiched on interior leather trim (self)
Weather Tech floor mats
Escort 9500xi with jammers hardwired.

I am sure I have forgotten something so if you notice something simply ask

Maintenance is up to date,
Oil changes are done every 7500 Miles, Used 10W60 Liquimoly,
Rear Diff fluid was changed 2 times since my ownership every 25-30k Miles,
Front end overhaul (suspension, control arms, tie rods ect) was done this past August 8/19
Rear end had all four rear subframe bushing swapped out with Turner Solid Aluminum bushing 8/19
Water Pump/Throttle Actuators were done 7/19

Bad?
Still on original Bearings (oil analysis every other oil change looks good)
Minor Chips/Dents with this age/mileage car
DCT Gasket cover (passenger side) slight leak. I believe this is common and have been told its not a concern. (does not leak on ground, more so damn in the area)


As far as what I am looking for is another LCI E90M with a 6MT. I am open to all miles, but ideally a car that hasn't been thru more owners then I have fingers on one hand. Mods are welcome, but so is a stock one.

Preferences to AW/IB/MR colors

I would be willing to also pull off mods from each others cars and swap a stock car. I guess that is completely open in the air. I am not looking to sell my car as I cant find a replacement for it unless its another E90M.


10/28/2020 UPDATE

I am opening up trade vs E92M's also.

Mileage isnt as much of a concern, but condition is.

Must have AW/MR/IB/LB Exterior
Must have 6MT
Must not be grey interior.


If interested get in touch with me and we can discuss and go from there.


Additional changes to the car:
Brand new OEM mats all around.
Re-wrapped the steering wheel with Tri-color stitch, still leather with 9/3 positions being perforated.
Added a ACP/AA wired/wireless unit that works with the OEM Navigation screen. Runs great and made the car feel much more modern.
Fresh set of Pads all around
New brake fluid
Light used set of EDC struts installed. ~20K miles on them to help bring the feel back

Enjoy:

I also dont want to be that guy, but I would also entertain a trade for an E92M. I dont like cars that are modded and its in your face. Think OEM + that can fly under the radar. I would also be open to the idea of throwing money on top if you have a much nicer car. And vise versa.

Enjoy:

Beautiful car. For the mileage it looks amazing. That rear diffuser doesn't look like the Fancywide that's on the site? How did you mate it to the existing CF diffuser? Are you sure it's FW?

Thanks for the kind words. Some of the pictures are a bit older, over the summer I an incident with a lightly flooded street and the custom diffuser I had made got pulled from one mounting point. I didnt know this until I got home, my driveway was able to snag it and mangle it but it was too late by the time I heard it snap

I went with the FW unit cause they had them in stock. The guy that build my custom Varis - rep diffuser is in michigan and backlogged so this will hold me till then.

Here is an early stage pic of the unit without the vanes mounted:

As far as the upper unit, I had it made specific to the upper I was running at the time so the vanes from the upper didnt touch. It was super tight but it was a snug fit. With the Fancy Wide I had to go as high as I could without touching the upper unit and even still I had to modify the upper peice just so I didnt get any rubbing between the two.

Is that an RS6 in the background?? If so, nice stable you have.

Interested? I have about 23k miles less but maybe we can work something out

Hey thanks for reaching out.

In terms of spec your car is very close to what I would like to get into. I dont really want to maintain another black car hahah! Also while the rear tails are LCI I'm partial to the update Navi. I noticed you have a serious offer today around 1P hahaha!

I didnt know tune2air displayed song data on screen when paired. I have one and use it to stream my spodify, its so seamless I dont mess with my other apps.

Alright, Alright. Lmao I was thinking in the looks department when I wrote that. With that said, with Cold start turned off, the car is surprisingly quite at first start, coasting in 2nd and keeping it under 2k RPM's to get out of the neighborhood and its *silent*!! For what it is. My 911 shakes the next door neighbors master bedroom, or so what I am told. So its pretty under the radar to what my poor neighbors are used to.

I hope there's a car like yours for sale when I start looking to buy another M3. It's so nice and I've been missing mine.

[MikeyDawg]

Man that is a beautiful color.

What rear spoiler is that on your car?

Thank you for the kind words!

I figured it out. I guess you need to have at least one song downloaded on your apple music local library and now all the spodify data shows up. Now have full steering wheel functions when streaming

Thanks! It was custom, I used a ebay rep to mold something up and had one made that was taller in rake then most of the ones that are for sale.

Are any of you using tune2air with Android? I can't get it to display song data or skip tracks or show any kind of library.

[psmalley92]

Not looking to trade but have the car you want. It's posted on the forum.

2011.75 MR slicktop comp manual sedan. 2 owner, 131k miles. $22,500.

Call or text 248-303-4753

[boomerang.e92]

Do you consider selling it instead of trading?

[anthr76]

I want to buy this !

[dghits26]

Hey,

Would you be interested in selling your e90 m3 ?

I want to apologize to all that have PM'd me asking if I want to sell it. I just replied to all of those. Since I last got on here I have done an oil change, @ 120K miles,

Did a EDC shock refresh, top hats, bump stops, end links, ect from an extremely low mile ZCP Car.

Added an F8X M Rear trunk spoiler for more "high-kick"

Awaiting a Maxston Design From bumper lip to be installed. Pulled the splitters off just cause I wanted something new

[mcjoe691]

How much of you sell it ??
