SOLD SOLD SOLD!!!! 2011 E90 M3 Melbourne Red, 6MT, 43.5k miles, rod bearings done

Asking Price:

Sold

Item Interest

This car has sold as of 12/22/2018

For sale is my 2011 E90 M3 6MT that I picked up Euro delivery in August of 2011. Reluctantly, my current job and housing situation is not conducive to me keeping the car.

Car is located in Lubbock, TX (airport mostly served by Southwest Airlines and American Airlines).

I have done all the maintenance myself outside of what was covered by the factory service intervals. I used to have a lift in my Vegas garage, so it wasn't a big deal. Extra maintenance includes BE rod bearings with their ARP bolts at approximately 35k miles. Oil changes were at 7500 miles or 1 year if mileage was less than that. I ran mostly Castrol 10w 60, but have tried Liquimoly and the new Shell Helix stuff as well. I have Motul 10w 60 along with a stock filter kit ready to change when I'm off over the holidays. Plugs were changed at about 28k miles (I'll have to dig out the file to check). Brake fluid was flushed with Castrol SRF in May 2018.

Belts were changed out as well as the air conditioner compressor by Dean's Bimmer last month. Spare (new) belts in trunk.

Car currently has 43.5k miles on it. Those will increase, but only by a few as the car is parked now and not driven (my wife's X3 arrives tomorrow so the M3 is no longer needed).

Car has the premium package 2 and heated front seats. The driver's seat has the side bolsters that move in and out so you can give yourself a hug if you're feeling blue (or hold you in better if you track the car). Carbon leather trim. Split folding rear seats. Car has USB/ipod interface.

Mods are Apex Arc-8, 18 x 9.5 up front and 18 x 10.5 out back. Dinan front sway bar with Bimmerworld end links. Eibach pro kit springs. Ground Control street camber plates. Dean's Bimmer metal under tray. I have a tow hook mounted front license plate. I have Technic's wiring harness for the stereo along with a JL XD600/6 amp to help the stock sound system a bit.

Tires are Michelin Pilot Super Sport, 265/35/18 fronts (7/32nd tread depth) and 275/35/18 rears (5/32nd tread depth).

Stock brake rotors have 0.03" left up front (perspective time: that's 30 track weekends worth of wear for me) and 0.05" out back. Pads have plenty of meat left.

Car has been garaged its entire life, including at work.

I have tracked the car, but I put on "paint shield" removable coating prior to my track events. There are still some rock chips, so it's not perfect. I also managed to pick up a scratch on one side and a couple of bigger chips at the bottom of the driver's door (see photos).

Car is mechanically sound. Cosmetic issues noted above are the weak spots.

I would like to sell the car as is, but will make changes as requested (e.g., stock wheels instead of Arc-8's), but I will require a hefty non-refundable deposit before making any changes. My time is very limited due to my current job, so I invest it wisely. Stock springs and sway bar will be included with purchase.

Not included in the purchase of the car but available for purchase are (make me an offer -- PM for pics - Pics available after 12/22):

* 4 NT-01s in 275/35/18 mounted on a combination of 2 Apex EC-7 18 x 9.5 (used as rears) and the 2 stock rear wheels (used as fronts).
* I also have a brand new set of front PFC-08 stock sized brake pads as well as a full front and rear set of PFC-08's in stock sizes.
* stock front wheels

Respectfully accepting offers starting at $32k

On to the photos after a quick wash and dry today:

Beautiful car, enthusiast owned, well maintained and priced right. Shouldn't last long. GLWS.

PYE46M3 · 12-16-2018, 06:35 PM

This is a steal of a price !

fullyflaredd · 12-16-2018, 06:44 PM

This will go quick. Such a great spec at a great price. I want this badly, but need to get rid of some toys first.

Siajoon · 12-16-2018, 07:09 PM

My god, if I could sell my AW e90 M I would pick this thing up in a heart beat

spazzyfry123 · 12-16-2018, 07:11 PM

As I said before, this thing will move quick. Epic low mileage spec from original owner at a great price. Ultra recipe. I say don't budge on the price.

Hope it goes to someone on here!

admranger · 12-16-2018, 09:57 PM

Thanks to all that commented on this. I'm getting a lot of interest in the car. Someone on M3Post is going to be very happy when they buy this.

Ben Ingraham · 12-17-2018, 08:21 AM

$32k is a steal. Glws.

EnVe46 · 12-17-2018, 08:24 AM

Hell of a price here for whoever buys it. Id say this is a 35k car all day. GLWS OP.

I am open to offers higher than my listing price.

E90Hunter · 12-17-2018, 09:18 AM

I don't know if i missed it but is this car a competition package car? If so do you have the full set of factory ZCP wheels?

admranger · 12-17-2018, 09:44 AM

It is not ZCP

Aktavate · 12-17-2018, 10:12 AM

Very clean, glws, hope it goes to another forum member.

Blindside_137 · 12-17-2018, 08:31 PM

She's a beaut, if I had the funds I would fly out and drive it back to NC in a heart beat.

cognoscenti · 12-18-2018, 04:53 PM

Wow, what a STEAL and only ~44K miles. Wish it had been for sale when I paid more for mine, without single ownership history or those extras!

It does go fast, it's an M3.

And yes, it is going to sell fast. Sale should be completed Saturday.

This stings a little for both of us I think.

I priced it to sell and it will. I don't have time to fool around.

I appreciate all the interest but unless something tragic happens, she is going to live in Dallas starting Saturday. I'll let the new owner gloat once he has it safely home.

cvstar9M3 · 12-19-2018, 07:29 PM

wow! great mileage... great price... a month too late for me

admranger · 12-22-2018, 06:13 PM

It's gone to its new owner. I couldn't be happier with who got it. Great guy.
