This 2002 BMW M3 coupe is finished in Phoenix Yellow Metallic over black leather, and power comes from a 3.2-liter S54 inline-six paired with a six-speed SMG II sequential manual gearbox and a limited-slip differential. Equipment includes automatic climate control, cruise control, navigation, Park Distance Control, a Harman Kardon audio system, and Titan Shadow interior trim. The car was first delivered to Kelly BMW of Columbus, Ohio, and it spent time in Colorado prior to the seller’s acquisition and subsequent relocation to Arizona in August 2019. Service completed in April 2021 included replacing the timing chain tensioner pivot bolt, front ABS speed sensors, thermostat and coolant, and differential cover, fluid, and mounts.
The exterior is finished in Phoenix Yellow Metallic (445) with Shadowline window trim and was optioned from the factory without a sunroof. Exterior features include a rear decklid spoiler, fog lights, fender vents, quad exhaust outlets, and rear parking sensors. The seller says the fog lights have been replaced during their ownership.
Replacement 18″ M Double Spoke wheels were fitted in 2019, and they are mounted with 225/45 front and 255/40 rear Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires that show date codes from 2017 and 2018. The seller states that an alignment was performed and a tie rod, the control arms, all four shocks, the front suspension bushings, and the rear brake pads and rotors were all replaced within the past year. The front ABS speed sensors were replaced in April 2021, and the seller states that a brake fluid flush was also performed within the past year. Corrosion is noted on the brake calipers and suspension components.
The cabin features manually adjustable front seats trimmed in black leather with matching door panel inserts, and replacement Titan Shadow trim was fitted in 2018. Amenities include navigation, automatic climate control, a Harman Kardon sound system, cruise control, and M-branded door sill inserts. The seller states that both front airbag recalls were performed during their ownership as well as replacing the M-branded floor mats and C-pillar parts.
The multifunction steering wheel frames gray instrument dials that consist of an M-branded 185-mph speedometer, a 9k-rpm tachometer with a variable-redline, and gauges for fuel level, oil temperature, and coolant temperature. The digital odometer indicates under 41k miles.
The 3.2-liter S54 inline-six features individual throttle bodies and double-VANOS variable valve timing, and it was factory rated at 333 horsepower and 262 lb-ft of torque. Records indicate that the rod bearings were replaced under warranty in 2004. The seller states that an oil change was performed within the past year, a valve adjustment was completed at 32k miles, and that the following components were replaced during their ownership:
Battery
Engine air filter
Chain tensioner pivot bolt and crush ring
Thermostat and coolant
Oil pan thermostat
Cam chain tensioner crush ring
Blower motor resistor
Coolant reservoir
Power is routed to the rear wheels through a six-speed SMG II sequential manual gearbox and a limited-slip differential.
The window sticker lists factory options and colors along with a total suggested retail price of $53,995.
