Recap –
This has been an SF Bay Area, California car since new with no rust nor corrosion. Everything works; all interior functions, mechanical components, and touts a nicely kept exterior and interior. There are no overtly notable imperfections in the Light Grey nappa leather or throughout the soft touch plastics in the interior – the headliner, A pillars, and C pillars have all recently been recovered in genuine alcantara, the original seats and seat bolsters show minimal wear for the mileage, the dashboard leather is tight without evidence of sagging barring the glovebox door, all OBD functions illuminate, and the HVAC system all works without hiccup. The Estoril Blue Metallic exterior paint has maintained great depth and is free of any excessive etching. Some surfaces have been resprayed for preservation but no evidence of accident history, and shows beautifully in current day. It’s equipped with OEM BMW keyless entry, side air bags, HiFi audio with integrated bluetooth functionality, and folding rear paired with manual front seats. This E36 M3 has been cared for both mechanically and cosmetically and is perfectly suited for any use case.
