Recap –
While there is some general wear commensurate with its age and mileage, there are no large imperfections and has been reliably driven and carefully maintained. The weather-prone plastics have been replaced, including the door handle gaskets, window trim, and more. The Techno Violet exterior paint shows excellent depth where there’s standard pitting throughout the front fascia. No accident history and all VIN tags are present. The headliner and A pillars have been recently recovered in alcantara and are perfect. All OBD pixels illuminate and interior functions, including the retrofitted “Vader” front seats, work as intended. This has been a West-coast owned and garaged M3 since new with no rust nor corrosion. This M3 was built to provide enhanced drivability with minimal compromise and no additional NVH, all while wrapped in a desirable factory configuration.
