Seller Description

2000 BMW M coupe with 80,300 miles. This car is in beautiful condition, with a clean title and all records have been kept. I have performed all scheduled maintenance with regular oil changes. The car runs smoothly and powerfully with a few tasteful professionally installed upgrades:
Borla full exhaust system
Turner Headers
Shrik Cam shafts
Clifford Alarm system
Navigation system

I have the dyno results available for before and after these modifications. I live in Berkeley, and just don't have the chance to drive it as much as I would like to. I am looking to find somebody who will truly appreciate this amazing vehicle. The paint is in excellent condition, and the leather interior has been meticulously cared for. Please email with any further questions of if you would like any additional photographs.

Previous Listing:

Well kept with a clean interior and good exterior paint this bmw is accident free according to carfax and has just 80,100 miles on the odometer. Purchased by the current owner three years ago in san francisco this m coupe has resided in the san francisco bay area under the new owner and been in california since 2004. Powered by a silky smooth 3. 2l inline six producing 240 horsepower @ 6,000rpm and 236 pounds of torque @ 3,800rpm, the m coupe will sprint form 0-60 mph in just 5. 1 seconds. A 5 speed manual zf transmission provides for short, concise, smooth shifts that makes driving this coupe addicting for anyone behind the wheel.Recent service includes routine oil and filter changes, new belts and water pump installed 8k miles ago, and recent replacement of the tires and timing chain. Aftermarket additions include a cold air intake with heat shield and remus exhaust which provides a slightly deeper exhaust note than stock, but is relatively quiet for an aftermarket exhaust system.

My Comments

Sold 8/5/11 - Sold to Bill for $17,600. Congrats!

7/9/11 Update - Seems to be back on the market for a private sale still at $18,999.

6/3/11 Update - Another price drop to $18,999 from $19,900. The new listing also mentions schrick cam shafts and turner headers that were not previously mentioned.

5/6/11 Update - Price reduced to $19,990 from $20,990

4/7/11 Update - Price reduced to $20,990 from $21,990

2/13/11 Update - Ebay auction ended without selling. Something is a little weird about this listing though. Ebay shows they declined a full price offer of $22,989 and let a later offer of $21,989 expire as well as other offers of $21,000, $20,000, and another $20,000. I personally think they should take any offer over $20k and run with it as that's a very strong price for this car.

2/7/11 Update - Price reduced to $21,990 from $22,990

1/22/11 Update - Listed on Ebay for $22,990 with Specialty Sales. The AutoCheck report does show it was in a minor accident on April 13, 2005 in West Chester, PA. The wheels are all matching roadstars now. Added lots of great photos. The worn driver seat bolster and sagging glovebox are really the only obvious sign of its 80,000 miles. It also has a Traffic Pro headunit, M50 manifold, and I think it's lowered a little. I'm not positive, but it appears that the wheels are redone as they look a little lighter colored than stock. I'm not sure though as it could just be the photos. The price is pretty high for the mileage and lack of description.

12/14/10 Update - After 5 months, this coupe has come back to market with 2,000 more miles and a price lowered to $22,000 from $22,500. There still is not any mention of the mismatched wheels, and the new description leaves off the paint chipping on the front bumper, so I wonder if he got it touched up.

It looks nice but is priced high for the mileage. His mods are well chosen, and he does have dyno results to back up his 300 hp claim. He makes no mention of why the coupe has mismatched wheels in the photos nor does he provide any interior shots. It does sound like it's been well maintained though.
