Hello all,
Up for sale is my 1995 BMW M3 that has 116,000 miles on it. I bought this car near the end of summer and it is an extremely fun cruiser but the fact of the matter is that I miss my Cobalt game and am looking into buying another. This car has never been in a crash and has all the original VINs on the panels such as the doors, fenders, hood, trunk, etc. The previous owner hit a raccoon with the front bumper so that was replaced and he had the car repainted a matching yellow with a slight pearl to it. The paint job is not the best but keeping that in mind this is a 17-year-old car it didn’t bother me knowing it was in much better condition than the other ones I looked at.
Mechanically this car is in great condition. The cooling system was replaced 20k miles ago by the previous owner, which included a water pump, radiator, and hoses. Fan clutch is also in great condition. If you have done any research on these cars you know that is the common weak point on them. The engine runs perfect and has no CELs and no leaks of oil or coolant. Transmission shifts perfect (5 speed manual) with no grinds or anything. I average 26-28 MPG driving it and to say the least I’m extremely easy on all the cars I own, anyone I know can attest to this.
Modifications on the car include:
Engine- UUC System-U with straight tips installed 2 months ago and probably has 1-1.5k miles if that.
Drivetrain- Rogue short throw shifter with MOMO shift knob.
Suspension- Koni adjustable struts and shocks with Eibach Sportline springs, Hamann strut bar, Turner Motorsport rear shock mount reinforcement plates (rear shock mounts are weak on these cars and this is basically essential to have).
Wheels- SSR Type-C rims (extremely light)
The car is rust free apart from a small amount of surface rust on the trunk near the lock, I was quoted $261 to fix this by a local body shop that has been in business for over 30 years and has an extremely good reputation.
More pictures will be included when I get time to take them. For potential buyers interested in E36 M3s: I was in the same boat as you a few months ago when I was looking for mine and I can honestly say a clean one is extremely hard to come across now days that hasn’t been in a crash or have major rust problems. This is the exact reason why I ended up buying this from Indiana because the ones I found in Michigan did not meet my standards.
This is a fun car do drive and handles amazingly and gets TONS of looks from other people. I have the original window sticker and a bunch of receipts from things I have fixed up since owning it. I currently am on the west side of the state of Michigan for school but live on the east side near Lapeer, Michigan. I don’t need to sell this car at all but if the right buyer comes along I will let her go. Feel free to contact me on here or send an email to
jjjggs90@aol.com and I will contact you as soon as I can. Like always thanks for looking!
