Produced along six distinct generations from 1986 through the present, BMW?s brilliant M3 is the company?s legendary road model purpose-built for racing homologation. Victorious in German DTM, British BTCC, and European ETCC touring-car championships from inception in the late 1980s, plus North American IMSA and SCCA competition, the M3 has always defined the wizardry of BMW's racing division, BMW M Motorsport GmbH. BMW?s E36-gernation M3 for 1992-99 was offered in Coupe and Sedan body styles for 1997, supplemented by a range-topping Cabriolet in 1998, with race-derived engineering and electrifying performance in keeping with the hallowed BMW 'M' designation.
Built during January 1997 and retaining its original Cosmos Black paint finish and Gray leather interior, this 1997 BMW M3 Coupe features the driver-preferred ZF Type C 5-speed manual transmission with direct 5th gear. Mileage is 74,138 at the time of writing, supported by a clean Carfax vehicle-history report, which also confirms that it has been under the care of just two prior owners from new, including its first 12 years and 5 months with the original owner.
In addition to the many standard mechanical, exterior, interior and safety features, this high-quality M3 was optioned with heated front seats ($500), cruise control ($475), forged alloy wheels ($1,450), and a rear wing ($650). Last but not least, BMW?s sophisticated on-board computer ($500) includes a multifunction electronic display providing important data including average fuel economy, average speed, distance to destination, estimated time of arrival, range on remaining fuel, plus a programmable speed limit and stopwatch. Sport seats provide supportive comfort while enjoying this M3's wide performance envelope. In addition to a new battery and floor mats, this outstanding M3 rides on reconditioned wheels mounting a set of new tires. Freshly serviced and detailed, this race-bred BMW performer is ready to collect, show, and enjoy as desired. Don?t miss out! Be sure to contact us for viewing arrangements, obtain complete details and make it yours today. View More
