2011 E92 M3 Blue Santorini Wrap 6MT Supercharged with $62k in Mods

Year: 2011
Make: BMW
Model: M3
Price: $36000
Mileage: 86700
Color: Blue Santorini
Private or Dealer Listing: Private Listing
Location (State): NC
Transmission: Manual
Drivetrain: Rear Wheel Drive

***NO LONGER FOR SALE***


I wanted to build an exceptional M3 for showing off to my BMW enthusiasts, the local BMW CCA and represent the BMW brand at area car shows. What makes this track-inspired car different from the rest of the M3s for sale? ESS custom tuned supercharger, 20" wheels and tires, MagnaFlow exhaust, brand new Santorini Blue wrap over its original and excellent condition Alpine White factor paint, Alcantara interior upgrades, Recaro seats, and $31,000 (documented) of new parts (within the last 1.6k miles). All three (3) recalls have been performed on this car: PRA 2013/13476, PRA 2018/16803, and PRA 2018/16813. And unlike a lot of other cars for sale on this site, I have no problems showing the clean underside of this car with its new felt and metallic debris shield as under my ownership, it has never been driven in the rain or snow.

I think that the discerning buyer should determine from the video, pictures (see link below) and my description if the car is in immaculate condition and if the recent upgrades (less than a year) are worth the extra money in negating the miles. You should know that, regardless of this E92 M3's mileage, the owner needs to be prepared to show objective evidence indicating that they have maintained the following items on this particular model: RBCs, Oil Separators, Spark Plugs, Valve Cover Gaskets, O2 Sensors, Engine Mounts, New fluids for engine, transmission, and brakes, windshield wipers, sway bar bushings, DCT seals if automatic - otherwise new clutch and flywheel if 6MT, steering rack boots, underfloor felt, and battery. The aforementioned parts and labor can equate between $15k to $20k in costs if you think that you are getting a good deal. And don't forget to factor in the down time and recurring annoyances associated with taking the car in for repairs and then picking it up. You won't need to be concerned with these issues if purchasing this car. This car has never been in an accident and I have a recent CarFax report. A new windshield was installed, as I did not like looking at small rock chips. It comes with two OEM BMW Key Fobs.

I had the car re-coded European so that the TPMS codes work more reliably. In addition, the car was recently coded GTS Euro MDM making the "fun" factor around corners off the charts!

I can provide an Excel file with color coding and costs of all of this car's modifications. Just send me a PM with your personal email. Additionally, I have prepared a 3-ring binder of all of the receipts for the new parts and some receipts from the previous owner. And yes, all vinyl stickers can be easily removed from the windows by the new owner and no, I am not accepting any trades nor will I sell any part individually. Located in Greensboro NC. No codes whatsoever in this car - note that on average, an E92 M3 throws 12 codes.

There are no wheel spacers on this M3; this car has the correct hub-centric hubs for a "vibration free" ride, even at high speeds. All of this vehicle's underbody felt, with hanging issues from the previous owner, have been replaced by either new OEM felt along with upgraded fasteners or the new Turner Motorsports aluminum debris shield. I possess all receipts done since December 2017 (when I purchased the car, neatly organized in a 3-ring binder) and all upgrades, maintenance, and modifications are summarized in an Excel file as well as this accident free vehicle's CarFax (both can be provided electronically). The Recaro seats are extremely comfortable and I have added ½ x 1 inch stainless steel side rail spacers to accommodate short or taller drivers.

I can assist with shipping the car to you with your selected carrier of choice. The local international airport is only 15 minutes from my house and I will gladly come pick you up if you would like to fly in for a test drive. In addition, I can assist you with contacting a local and reputable BMW mechanic for a pre-purchase inspection (PPI).

I read on another forum that the OEM clutch and rear diff can handle upwards of 800+ hp at the flywheel so the new OEM’s clutch coupled with ESS Tuning's 625 is approximately 20% under the maximum specifications in this critical area.

The car, when not being driven, is attached to a battery charger in its heated and air conditioned garage.

The ESS supercharger had an updated tune to it a few months ago along with its scheduled 2,000 mile oil change.

Thank you for the compliment on the ad. I tried to take all of the typical worries out of the private buyer's thoughts when I made the ad and answer as many questions as possible so that the reviewer wouldn't be bored thumbing through the pictures and want to see and/or read more about what this car offers so that they can more easily compare it to another similar model.

bump for a truly unique car...

that has great maintenance records and is mechanically and aesthetically near perfect. Of note, its exterior color, although being a high-end wrap with a near perfect RGB color match to Santorini Blue, makes this car the only Santorini Blue, Left-Hand drive, 6MT, supercharged E92 M3 in North America. There were only 22 Santorini Blues made by BMW of which only 8 came to North America as Left-Hand drives. And from my discovery of, only one of these eight was a 6MT and it currently is in a stock configuration.
