This 1999 BMW M Coupe was originally delivered to Niello BMW in Sacramento, California, and was purchased new by the current owner. The car is powered by a 3.2-liter S52 inline-six that was modified in 1999 with Dinan Stage 1 supercharger kit and ECU chip. A Dinan Stage 3 suspension kit was also installed, and additional equipment includes a five-speed manual transmission, Dinan exhaust, silver-finished 17″ Style 40 wheels, Koni shocks, a limited-slip differential, a sunroof, a Harman Kardon sound system, air conditioning, and cruise control. This silver-over-black M Coupe has 65k miles and is now offered by the seller on behalf of the current owner with a window sticker, the owner’s manual, service records, a tool kit, a clean Carfax report, and a clean California title.
This M Coupe is one of approximately 95 examples equipped with a sunroof and finished in Arctic Silver Metallic over Dark Grey and black Nappa leather for the model year. Features include front fender vents and a rear window wiper. Finish imperfections are noted on the hood and rear bumper.
Silver-finished 17″ Style 40 wheels are wrapped in Bridgestone DriveGuard tires that were reportedly mounted in 2016. Braking is handled by four-wheel ventilated discs. A Dinan Stage 3 suspension kit installed in 1999 added Koni shocks and Dinan springs, sway bars, and camber plate assemblies. Photos showing curb rash are included in the gallery.
The cabin features Dark Grey and black Nappa leather covering the heated sport seats, door panel inserts, and center console. Amenities include air conditioning, cruise control, an analog clock, a BMW Business AM/FM/cassette stereo, a Harman Kardon sound system, a rear luggage partition, a cargo area privacy cover, and Dinan-branded floor mats. Wear is reported on the driver’s seat.
The M-branded leather-wrapped steering wheel features tri-color stitching and frames a tachometer with a 6,800-rpm redline as well as a 160-mph speedometer and gauges for coolant temperature and fuel level. The digital odometer indicates 65k miles.
The 3.2-liter S52B32 inline-six featured two-stage VANOS variable valve timing and was modified by Dinan of Mountain View, California, in 1999 with the installation of a supercharger, inlet pipe, plenum purge valve assembly, performance chip, and exhaust system. An oil change was performed in March 2022.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a ZF five-speed manual transmission and a limited-slip differential. The seller reports a crack on the driveshaft flex disc.
The window sticker shows initial delivery to Niello BMW and lists factory equipment, colors, and a total suggested retail price of $42,670.
The Carfax report is free of accidents or other damage and shows registration history with one owner in California.
