WTB Very Rare E92 M3

Danse92m3 · 09-15-2025, 06:57 PM

Looking to purchase a very rare E92 M3.

Not sure if one exists in Canada, but I am looking for a fire orange or santorini blue 2013 competition package in 6 speed manual with under 10,000 kms. If you know have one, or know anyone with one, please get in touch.

Preferences (open to cars that don’t meet this criteria):
-under 10k kms (lower km the better)
-service history
-6 speed (if you have a DCT, please still PM me)
-Fully loaded (nav, upgraded audio, rear sunshade, carbon interior trim, etc)
-Individual colour (also open to non individual colours like le mans blue or interlagos blue)
-Individual colour stitching
-a car that’s always been in BC

Must have:
-competition package
-LCI
-no accidents / claims / paint work / stories
-carbon roof
-Located in Canada / Canadian spec car.

Location Vancouver, BC. Open to shipping.

I understand this is a hard ask and I am not in a rush to find one.

Mileage is too high and I am not looking for a US car.

How's your search going? Your original post is dated 15-September-2025. Since then, how many Canadian spec cars have you found yet that fit your profile?

Correct. I initially posted the ad in September looking for a lowish mileage, comp pack. I have since purchased one with 30k kms. However, I updated my ad middle of December as I am now looking for another with even lower mileage in an individual colour.

I'm in no rush to purchase. I understand finding a car like this will take time and will only move forward when the right one becomes available.

Congratulations on your most recent E92 M3! How 'bout posting a few pics so we can see the latest gem you just bought? Good luck on your latest search to find a rare CA spec car with comp pack.

From memory, BMW Canada offered up both of those two colours late in 2013 MY production run - they were pre-spec'd with DCT. I was at Calgary BMW in that time and was able to order one of the Fire Orange Editions with a stick - and received zero invoice credit, even though the DCT was an up charge back then(!) As far as I know it was the only manual one in that run, and zero Santorini Blue Editions were produced in stick.

I chatted with the Sales Consultant who sold the Fire Orange stick a year or two (?) ago, and he told me that his original client still owned it. I can't recall if we talked about mileage or not.

Barring specifically the Special Ed versions, your unicorn would have to have been a one-off IND build, especially with the low km/BC criteria.

I ordered 3 other IND Fire Orange E92 M3s - one each in 2011 (as soon as I read about the Year of the Tiger edition for China https://www.bmwblog.com/2010/08/10/l...ion-for-china/, I got in line for an IND build - the first Fire Orange for Canada), 2012, and 2013 early, well before the run-out edition was announced.

Stick had by then become the exception rather than the rule when ordering E9x M3 for inventory, much to this enthusiast's chagrin... even at a dealership known for carrying more manuals than the other stores.

All the best with your search.
