This 1997 BMW M3 coupe is finished in Arctic Silver Metallic over black leather and is powered by a 3.2-liter inline-six paired with a five-speed manual transmission and a limited-slip differential. Additional equipment includes a rear spoiler, a sunroof, an AM/FM cassette stereo, an onboard computer, automatic climate control, wood interior trim, fog lights, and 17″ M Contour wheels. The car spent time in Georgia, Nebraska, and Washington State before being acquired by the seller in March 2017 and relocated to Idaho.
The car is finished in Arctic Silver Metallic and features a rear spoiler along with aerodynamic bumper covers and side skirts. Additional exterior equipment includes a power sunroof, fog lights, and twin exhaust outlets. The seller reports that the bumper was repainted to repair scratches.
Silver-finished 17″ M Contour Style 23 wheels are mounted with 225/45 front and 245/40 rear Michelin PilotSport A/S 3 tires showing 2013 date codes. The car is equipped with Automatic Stability Control (ASC) and traction control, while braking is handled by anti-lock four-wheel discs.
The interior features power-adjustable front seats trimmed in black Nappa leather and joined by a matching black dashboard, door panels, and carpets. Woodgrain trim accents the center console, dashboard, and shift and handbrake levers. Additional amenities include an AM/FM cassette stereo, an onboard computer, automatic climate control, cruise control, M3-branded door sill protectors, BMW-branded floor mats, and power windows, mirrors, and door locks.
The leather-wrapped steering wheel frames a 160-mph speedometer, a tachometer with an inset instant fuel economy gauge, and auxiliary gauges for coolant temperature and fuel level. The digital odometer indicates 118k miles.
The 3.2-liter S52 inline-six is equipped with VANOS variable valve timing and was rated at 240 horsepower and 236 lb-ft of torque when new. An oil change was completed in 2020.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a five-speed manual transmission and a limited-slip differential.
