Seller Description

2001 S54 silver on solid black sunroof coupe with approximately 61,800 miles on the clock. This is one of only 690 315hp S54 powered M Coupes that BMW produced for sale in North America. These cars were only available between 2001 and 2002. The earlier (pre- 2001) M Coupes were powered by the E36 M3 motor producing 240hp. Interior and exterior are both in excellent condition. Motor is 100% stock. Suspension has been tuned with Koni adjustables, flipped front hats and H&R sport springs. A quick rundown of the work I ve done since buying the car last year is provided below (I have the service records since the car was new): Inspection II with valve adjustment; replaced rear shock mounts; installed H&R sport springs and flipped front hats for increased camber (car already had Koni adjustable when I purchased it); installed UUC short shift kit; replaced leaking power steering pressure hose; replaced front and rear rotors (within last 4k miles); replaced both pre-cat O2 sensors; and replaced all four tires with Nitto NT555. The car has a recent set of OEM embroidered M floor mats as well as the matching cargo mat. An additional nicety is the BMW Traffic Pro stereo head unit which incorporates both navigation and an iPod interface while maintaining a factory interior look. The car is also hardwired for Valentine 1 radar detectors so you can do without the dangling power cord. I have a Conforti Shark Injector that I had installed in the car for a few months but removed in an effort to isolate a check engine light issue which ended up being the O2 sensors (see above list of maintenance). The Conforti unit can be reinstalled in 20 minutes and maintains the stock rev limit and requires 91 Octane pump gas. Car has been inspected on a number of occasions by my mechanic for rear sub frame/floor issues and there haven t been any indications of any problems. The car is currently located in San Francisco.

My Comments

Sold 7/27/10 - It appears to have sold as the AutoTrader ad was removed.

This is a great example of a car owned by someone who knows how to take care of these cars. They've already taken care of the expensive Inspection II service as well as many of the other common issues.  While not coilovers, their suspension choice is a common and well-loved option. Another big plus is the availability of all maintenance records since new. This is a huge for S54 cars. While it is one of the most common color combinations, there's a reason why it's one of the most common - silver on black is classic.  I see it as a good value given all the recent maintenance performed and what seems like a responsible owner.  And the BMW Traffic Pro upgrade is a great one. The $25,000 price listed here is from his Roadfly Ad. The others are listed as $25,500.
