History: The car was originally purchased in July 1999 in Georgia and was sold 10 years later at 71K miles. Purchased by the 2nd owner in 2009 and relocated to Austin, TX. The 2nd owner kept it 9 Years. I purchased the car in 2018 with 135,500 miles and rehomed it to North Carolina. Since then I have put about 25,000 miles on it over my 7 years of ownership. This M Coupe has been southern owned its entire life and has never been driven on salted roads. This is evident from the condition of the undercarriage shown in the photos.
Under my ownership, the car has always been garaged and covered. Mainly a point A to point A car used for backroad runs and weekend drives. It’s a very nice driver quality example that has been cared for like a priceless garage queen. Throughout this time the vehicle has received approximately $14,000 in parts alone (labor not included). Mostly preventative maintenance and a few driver orientated modifications. Extensive maintenance / refresh was completed at 145K miles.
