Seller Description

For sale the M Coupe my wife and I bought in November of 2002.  A great car for our GT touring.  Outstanding performance and room for our luggage for a considerable journey (sorry Porsche 911, no sale).  For Sale now as the wife wants to travel with her two dogs, and NO...they are not getting in the Coupe.

This a super car for both enthusiasts and collectors.  The S54 powered M Coupes have to be the quickest 6cyl cars ever made by bmw and only 340 or so 2002 M Coupes were made for N American sales.  Our Steel Gray over Gray/Black interior with no sunroof,  is one of only 5 made.  You will not pull up next to one just like it ever at a red light.

For super descriptions of the various M Coupes features, specs, variations, issues and values, google the M Coupe Buyers Guide.  Listings and articles there will give you a good picture of what these appreciating cars are doing in today's collector market.

While used car dealers can only list items like "Power Steering, Air Conditioning, etc", as the owner since 2002 I can give you all the dope on this specific car.  It has NEVER been in an accident, flood, track day, hailstorm or contest of speed.  It has always been garage parked.  Oil changes every  5000 miles with Castrol TWS 10W-60. 

Current service status (car @ 68340 miles)
Gear box and differential fluid changed @ 50,000 miles
Major inspection (valve adjust, coolant, belts, spark plugs, coils) @ 60,000 miles
Con Rod bearings replaced @ 60,000 miles*
Fresh Oil and filter change
Plenty of tread left on Michelins

*Many/Most S54 BMWs of this era had Con Rod bearing issues. M3 cars got recalled while M Coupes got a 6 year warranty.  At 60,000 miles my oil analysis showed high lead and copper.  I then had a Houston shop replace the Con Rod bearings ($2000.00).  Current Oil analysis is now normal.  Any buyer of an S54 powered Coupe should be aware of this issue.  Now a non issue with this car.  All service records since 2002 come with this car.  Service manual, owners manual, all keys and two remotes for the optional alarm, a 2002 M brochure, window sticker and all other items from the selling dealer will go to the buyer.

This the BMW description of the car as delivered,  We added the dealer installed BMW Alarm and a full set of M mats for the interior and rear hatch compartment.

Auction ended early because it's no longer available. Who got it?

Steel gray sunroof-delete with a long-time owner. Awesome! The bearings have been replaced already and it seems like it's been well maintained. It's also in very nice shape. The price seems very fair to me.
