Seller Description

This 1999 BMW M Coupe was purchased new by the seller’s friend in California, and it is said to have been acquired by the seller when it had approximately 5k miles. The seller tells us it was subsequently modified with a Dinan Stage 5 flywheel, cold-air intake, mass air flow sensor, throttle body, engine management software, front strut tower brace, camber plates, and exhaust components as well as a MOMO steering wheel, Recaro bucket seats, Schroth harnesses, and Koni dampers. Powered by a 3.2-liter S52 inline-six linked with a five-speed manual transmission and a limited-slip differential, the car is finished in Estoril Blue Metallic and equipped with 17″ Style 40 wheels, a sunroof, a CD stereo, a Harman Kardon sound system, air conditioning, and cruise control. Now indicating 16k miles, this M Coupe is offered at no reserve with a window sticker, an owner’s manual, three keys, a clean Carfax report, and a clean California title in the seller’s name.

This M Coupe is one of 36 finished in Estoril Blue Metallic (335) over Dark Beige Oregon leather for the North American market for the model year. Features include a sunroof, front fender vents, a rear window wiper, and quad Dinan-branded exhaust outlets. The bumper covers were repaired and repainted to address scratches approximately 10 years ago, along with the roof spoiler. Blemishes are noted on the hood.

The 17″ Style 40 wheels were powder coated in the current shade of metallic gray circa 2020, per the seller, and are mounted with staggered-width Continental ExtremeContact Sport tires that show 2021 and 2022 production codes. Dinan front camber plates and anti-sway bars have been added along with Koni dampers and performance springs, per the seller. The seller tells us the car was aligned under 200 miles ago, and a sheet with the Dinan alignment specifications is dais to be stored in the glove compartment.

The car was specified new with Dark Beige Oregon leather upholstery, and black-trimmed Recaro Pole Position bucket seats were added along with fabricated lower harness brackets, Schroth safety harnesses, and a Sparco harness bar with camera mounts under current ownership. Additional appointments include air conditioning, cruise control, a BMW Business CD stereo, and a Harman Kardon sound system.

An Alcantara-wrapped MOMO steering wheel frames a tachometer with a 6,800-rpm redline, a 160-mph speedometer, and gauges for coolant temperature and fuel level. The digital odometer indicates 16k miles, approximately 10k of which were added under current ownership.

The 3.2-liter S52B32 inline-six features VANOS variable valve timing, and it is spanned by a Dinan front strut tower brace. A Dinan cold-air intake has been fitted, and the seller tells us that installed Dinan Stage 5 modifications include a revised mass air flow sensor, throttle body, and engine management software. The fluids are said to have been changed every five years under current ownership, and the car most recently passed a California emissions inspection in May 2025.

Power is sent to the rear wheels through a ZF five-speed manual transmission and a limited-slip differential. The seller notes that a Dinan Stage 5 flywheel and exhaust components have been added.

The Carfax report shows no accidents or other reported damage.

This is an interesting coupe because it is super low mileage, but has some fairly significant modifications like Recaro seats, Schroth harnesses and MOMO steeting wheel. It has some more normal street modificatiosn like Dinan Stage 5 upgrades, and Koni struts/shocks. You can also see that the wheels have been refinished in a color closer to S54 chrome shadow. It will be interesting to see what type of buyer this coupe draws. Bidding up to $3,680.00 so far.
