99 MCoupe with 20k miles, $15.5k/OBO. The car was purchased new by Koala Motorsports and soon after track prepped for stock classes in SCCA and CCA. After they retired it from racing they used it for promotional purposes. I bought it from Koala in 2007 with 14k miles and used it to instruct with CCA, NASA, etc, and have driven it about 10-12 weekends. It passes GA emissions. I've only tracked it once in the last 2 years and it's time for someone else to enjoy it.

I've run a square set up since '07 with 255/40's and liked it a lot. All 4 rims are 17x9 with 8 offset (the stock rear wheel size for MCoupe/Roadster). There are no clearance issues. The front bumper has been moved out slightly.
Brakes
Stock calipers + stock rotors
Brass caliper bushings front + rear
Front cooling ducts
(includes street pads in decent shape and barely used Hawk Blues)
Wheels and tires
2 sets of RoadStars. One set is decent and the other in rough shape from brake dust. All 8 are straight.
(I may sell a set of four 17x9-- offset 8-- Fikses later, but they aren't included in this sale)
1 set of pretty worn 255/40 R888's. They may have a weekend in them (or not). I have a set of staggered HoHo's that are included also. These are pretty old, but with lots of tread.
There are usable street tires with good tread on one set of the RoadStars

BMW rear spoiler (pro painted)

The car had some track accidents before I bought it and required professional repair. Per Koala, it returned to racing lighter and faster after the repairs. The panels all look perfect. The rear hatch has a gap on driver and passenger side when closed (see pics). It has a full interior, but no radio/speakers or A/C. Heater core is present.
Safety
Will have 6 point harnesses and track seats in the car. I'm keeping the RaceTech seat and Schroth harnesses in the pictures. Driver seat TBD (will be either a Cobra or new Recaro)
Passenger seat is Recaro with back brace on custom floor mount
VAC driver side floor mount
McMahon cage with foot protection
Issues
1. SPA oil pressure gauge has a bad ground and works correctly 90% of time. Will try to have fixed ASAP. Stock oil pressure gauge works fine
2. See photos for rear hatch alignment issue
3. Fuel gauge sketchy if fuel gets low
4. RaceTech seat isn't in sale, neither are the Schroth harnesses nor are the Fikses (the Fikses may be for sale later. Car buyer gets first crack if they go up for sale)
5. Passenger side marker light broken
Spares
Stock passenger seat with cut-outs for harnesses (anti- sub and shoulder)
MCoupe stock radiator with 18k mi
It's not a beauty queen (some argue it wasn't even when new).
It's a well- maintained, safe, unique and dependable car. Thanks for looking.
