This M Coupe is one of 27 examples finished in Black Sapphire Metallic over Black Nappa leather with a sunroof for the North American market for the model year. Exterior details consist of front fender vents, a rear window wiper, and quad exhaust outlets. The Carfax report lists damage to the left side in a November 2010 entry, which the seller reports was the result of a parking lot incident. Tinting has been applied to the windshield as well as the side and rear windows. Discoloration is shown on the rear window, and close-up photos of exterior imperfections are viewable in the gallery below.
