This 1999 BMW M Coupe is an early S52-powered example with just 19k miles from new. The car is mechanically stock and one of 51 M Coupes produced in Dakar Yellow for the model year. This car is distinguished by an AC Schnitzer front air dam and rear spoiler. It was sold new in New York where it has remained since, garage-kept and stored during the winter. The seller is the fourth owner and has owned the car for five years. It is sold with a clean Carfax and clean title.
The Dakar yellow paintwork shows well, and this is one of 31 cars produced in this specification with a sunroof and black leather upholstery. The bodywork has been modified with a high mounted AC Schnitzer spoiler on the rear hatch, and an AC Schnitzer air dam is fitted to the stock front bumper cover. Some scratches are noted on the air dam.
Early M Coupes are fitted with a brighter silver finish on their M Roadstar wheels than the later S54 powered cars. The wheels fitted here are in good condition shod with new Khumo Ecsta tires.
AC Schnitzer pedal pads and emergency brake handle are the only interior modification, and this car even retains its stock stereo headunit. Power features are said to work as they should and the A/C blows cold.
Carpets and seating surfaces show light wear with good outer bolsters. The rear cargo area likewise appears tidy, with the original toolkit appearing unused in the factory holder.
The North American market S52 inline six remains stock. In the seller’s five years with the car it has been driven around 3k miles and has needed only routine oil changes.
Said to have never seen snow, this example has been garage kept it’s entire life, and sports a straight, rust-free underbody. Per the seller the second owner was located in the Albany, NY area, and the third owner only had the car a short time and sold it due to a knee injury which made the car difficult to get in and out of. The car is sold with a clean New York title.
