Please do not bid unless you have your financing already lined up. I do not want to re-list this.
Up for sale is my daily driver for many years going up and down the NJ turnpike - Driving 94 miles each way to work and back - hence high mileage.
The Car is in what I would consider to be in good to excellent condition considering the age and mileage - people who see the car can't believe its 2002, its in good condition.
The car includes most items minus the navigation system. Since you are looking at M3, you already know what it is and can do so I won't bore you with details. Here's some details on condition of the vehicle...
- Seat - other than some creases, it still hold its shape, no rip or tearing anywhere. Other than some creases, it still looks good.
- Tires - I haven't really driven this car since last year - I've put cheapy tires last year (kumho?) and it still has plenty of thread left. But if you want more performance, I would put pilot sports or similar tires.
- Rims - its original so it has some curb rash/scratches. Still look ok. 20" would look awsome!
- Dings - there are one dings in each side of the door, not noticeable as you could see in the picture (have to look close). There's one other ding - near right top, its also small. The rest of the exterior is clean, few stone chips but I have a Dr Color chip and you could touch it up in about an hour for all of them (They really works but I haven't had time to do them).
- Front Bumper - The bottom skid plate was removed (The metal part is intact) as I've hit too many curb going into stores. Car is very low. There's some scratch on the bottom of the front bumper because of that, not noticeable.
- Mechanical - There's nothing wrong with the car. I enjoy working on cars, so I fixed and replaced quite a few things on the car. Head gasket was replaced and even cleaned while I was in there. There's no oil leak or anything. I change the oil every 5000 or less miles.
- Minor things - there's tow hook cover missing (tow driver took it) and insert on passerger door (side air bag label). Also, the both arm rest paint is cracked (from high summer heat), don't bother me but you may want to change that out.
- Repair - About couple of years ago, I was hit from the back on traffic crawl (less than 5mph). Because of the dumb A**, I've had the rear bumper, carborfiber underlayment and plastic cover (all done by Rocco in S.NJ). No frame damage, basically bumper was replaced, looks new.
I think I've describe what I know about the car to best of my knowledge. Although its as-is/whereas sale, I would guarantee that car is as described/pictured on the day I hand the key over to you. If you live locally, I would be glad to show/drive you for a demonstration.
If you need the car shipped (US only), please make sure its arranged on your own. I'll try to help with with local drop off and whatnot but that all I can do.
Once auction is over, please deposit $500 via paypal immediately (non refundable) then 5 days for Cash (preferred)/Certified check (need to clear).
Please direct all questions prior to end of auction.

Recharge Wrap-up: BMW plans for retired batteries; automakers support dual-standard chargers
Sun, Feb 1 2015Toyota will test hybrids with silicon-carbide (SiC) power semiconductors. In Japan, Toyota has put the SiC power semiconductors into the power control units of a Camry Hybrid prototype and a fuel cell bus for a year-long test. Research suggests the SiC units will decrease electrical losses while managing power supply, thus improving overall powertrain efficiency. Current power semiconductors account for about 20 percent of electrical losses, and success with these tests could mean more efficient hybrids on the roads in the future. Read more at Hybrid Cars. Automakers from CCS and CHAdeMO camps are supporting dual-standard charging station networks. https://www.autoblog.com/bmw/, Volkswagen (CCS camp) and ChargePoint announced plans to build "express charging corridors" by installing about 100 DC fast chargers, many of which will support both types of charging. Kansas City Power & Light is partnering with Nissan (CHAdeMO camp) and ChargePoint to install DC chargers that "will charge any model of electric vehicle on the market." This leads the folks at Green Car Reports to look into whether this ends the looming standard war between automakers in the US. Read more at Green Car Reports. BMW, Bosch and utility company Vattenfall are making plans for a second life for retired BMW i3 batteries. The Second Life Batteries Alliance project will recycle the old lithium ion battery packs - which can still hold a charge - in off-grid storage and grid-stabilization applications, beginning with a grid storage system in Hamburg, Germany. Bosch has created a battery management algorithm to extend the life of the batteries and make sure they don't cause harm to Vattenfall's facilities. Read more at Transport Evolved.

As US exports top 2 million, is America becoming the world's source of cheap cars?
Mon, Feb 9 2015North American auto production is booming with 2014 figures just shy of the of the 17.3-million vehicle record set in 2000. With more models being built on the continent, even more are being shipped overseas. Factories in the US exported 2.1 million cars last year – the highest number ever. About half of those went to Canada and Mexico, but more than ever have been heading to places like the Middle East and China. The upswing comes in part from from after-effects from the Great Recession, according to The Wall Street Journal. With a weak dollar and lower production costs after the financial crisis, building vehicles in the US was relatively cheaper and more competitive in the world. At the same time buyers around the world are going crazy for crossovers. According to the WSJ, BMW and Mercedes-Benz are already exporting the majority of their US production of these models overseas. Both automakers have also announced investments to expand production further here to send more vehicles abroad. Even Honda has been shipping more models out of the country than it imported here. There is a concern this international strength could start slowing because the dollar is strengthening against other currencies, though it's too early to know what the actual effect of this could be, according to the WSJ. "Of course, we closely watch currency exchange, but we don't make changes in production or allocation based on temporary fluctuations in the exchange rate," Ford North American boss Joe Hinrichs told the newspaper.
