Hey Everybody,

Before I list my 2001 BMW M3 for sale in about a month, I thought might see if someone was interested in a trade or partial trade toward a 993/964/911 G50 (manual transmission coupe only please) now. I think it's time to start driving a Porsche daily

M3 info:

- steel grey on imola red
- 6 speed manual
- 123K miles
- no nav (I imagine would be pretty outdated by now anyway)
- every other option for 2001 - xenon lights, heated and power seats w/adjustable bolsters, moonroof, leather, etc
- service records from new (only BMW recommended Castrol 10W-60 used)
- rod bearing recall done
- rear subframe floor dealer inspected and OK
- I performed an Inspection II (with valve adjustment) at 120K miles.
- New Michelin Ps2s (all 4) approximately 6K miles ago
- Completely stock except for OEM BMW E92 M3 wheels (these are 1/2 inch wider than the stock 18" wheels and IMHO much better looking)
- recent water pump, fuel pump, themostat, and rear control arm bushings
- Very solid mechanically
- Interior is excellent
- Cosmetic flaws (exterior) of a daily driver (various scratches and dings) but still looks pretty good

Anyway, thought I'd give it a shot before I go down the craigslist/autotrader route. If you have questions, please fire away.

Cheers,
Joe

nice M3! I had an 02 topaz blue one and really liked it - I prefer my 964 though

The E90 M3 wheels look great on your E46, they really update the look of the car!

Good luck with your trade - I sold my E39 M5 to get into a 996 C4S, and I am glad I did! How much to buy your M3 outright?

JM993

Thanks for everyone's comments. I think I'd start at $15K for outright sale.

Cheers,
Joe

That is a heck of a car for $15k! GLWS.

I have a 90 C2 5spd Coupe that I would consider taking the M3 as a partial trade. That would be the one on the left.
