This 1999 BMW M Coupe was initially delivered to BMW of Chattanooga, Tennessee, and it was purchased by the seller in 2017 and now has 72k miles. The car is powered by a 3.2-liter S52 inline-six paired with a five-speed manual transmission and is finished in Imola Red over two-tone Imola Red and Black Nappa leather upholstery. Equipment includes silver-finished 17″ Style 40 wheels, a limited-slip differential, a sunroof, heated sport seats, a cassette stereo, air conditioning, and cruise control. This M Coupe is offered with a window sticker, manufacturer’s literature, service records, a car cover, and a clean Maryland title in the seller’s name.
This M Coupe is one of 71 finished in Imola Red over Imola Red and Black Nappa leather with a Sunroof for the North American market for the model year. Exterior details include front fender vents, a rear window wiper, and quad exhaust outlets. The front bumper cover, doors, and rear corners are said to have been refinished. A January 2003 entry on the Carfax notes that the vehicle was inspected after an accident or other incident, and it lists damage to the rear. Close-up photographs of the exterior finish and trim are shown in the gallery below.
Silver-finished 17″ Style 40 wheels are mounted with Continental ExtremeContact tires that have 2010 and 2011 date codes. The car is equipped with Automatic Stability Control, Bilstein dampers, and braking is handled by four-wheel ventilated discs.
The cabin features Imola Red and Black Nappa leather covering the heated sport seats, door panel inserts, and center console. Amenities include air conditioning, cruise control, a cassette stereo, and a Harman Kardon sound system. The headliner is sagging and the passenger window operates slowly.
The M-branded leather-wrapped steering wheel features tri-color stitching and frames a tachometer with a 6,800-rpm redline, a 160-mph speedometer, and gauges for coolant temperature and fuel level. The digital odometer indicates 72k miles, approximately 1k of which were added under current ownership.
The 3.2-liter S52B32 inline-six features VANOS variable valve timing and was factory rated at 240 horsepower and 236 lb-ft of torque. An oil change was performed in preparation for the sale.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a ZF five-speed manual transmission and a limited-slip differential. The transmission fluid and differential fluid were changed in 2022.
The window sticker lists initial delivery to BMW of Chattanooga, Tennessee, as well as factory colors, equipment, and a total suggested retail price of $42,670.
The Carfax report lists the aforementioned January 2003 damage.
