It's official, she's home and built to the right spec!

The only option for BMW "Performance" parts is to have them installed at the port or at your dealer. The Perf. Center folks don't do that kinda stuff. If you do it at the port, they will keep the original parts. If you do it locally, you get to keep your original parts. :-)

Well.... I was going to go big with this car, but the number of "blank checks" I have written for stuff in my life means I just have to enjoy the car as-is until that stuff gets totaled up.

The color just screams an exotic beetle!

i001947 · 10-03-2013, 07:31 AM

Love the color, love the car.

Look's like she was worth the hassle!

Congrats OP! Looks gorgeous! Hopefully it was worth the wait for you.

Awesome Car - Let us know your initial impressions after you break her in

leviathan18 · 10-28-2013, 10:36 PM

Question for the OP wasn't the seats going to be with blue leather or you changed your mind on that? I remember the pictures of the Atlantic blue car and it had blue/black interior and this one is only stitching.

Anyway looks amazing hope you enjoy it

NYBulldog · 10-29-2013, 06:11 PM

Looks great. I wish you were able to get that Individual interior though. Congrats on it working out

Needs Euro license plates though. I'm tired of our 4:3 plates. Why can't it be an option?

Atlantic Blue was nicer IMHO

That's a beautiful collector for sure. Sadly I'd park it and buy a high mileage M3 to actually drive.

velociti · 07-22-2019, 09:55 PM

Congrats to the seller, because $66k is bananas. You could get a higher mileage OG M2 and a decent (but high mileage) E92 for the same money. I get that this is an exceedingly rare color and in epic condition, but...dear lord.

Oof. Serious money for a car that has a ding on the report with replaced front and repainted rear bumpers. Wouldn’t necessarily deter me, but that money and mileage shows collector.

Slick car nonetheless. Epic color and story!

Actually total is plus 5% fee to BAT so price of $69,800 to buyer which is top dollar for an E92M for sure.

My thoughts exactly.
Can't believe that thing got so beat up!
I wonder what this moonstone with only 9k miles and no dings would fetch!

Hmmm...I thought the same when I first saw the auction results. Then I saw a very clean, very low mileage e46 M3 with a few tasteful mods sold on BAT for $90k. Yeah, no thanks. Sorry, but for $90k, I'm not driving an M3, any M3. Too many nice M3s for MUCH less and too many other awesome cars I could get into for around that price.
