Selling my 1999 BMW E36 M3 Convertible, original ZF 5 speed manual, with about 225k miles. I bought it in 2020 for my covid pandemic project when it had 203k miles. Got this car to have a fun weekend car to drive around in. It now sits and gets driven maybe 2-3 times a month. At around 212k miles in 2023 I rebuilt the engine for my own peace of mind. Daily drove it for a year and put ~13k miles on it afterwards. Mechanically, it’s in excellent shape and runs like new all the way to red line.

The Good:
Complete S52 engine rebuild. (ALL seals, piston rings, gaskets, redressed oil pump, new water pump, timing chains, guides, new Dr. Vanos, etc.)
Transmission seals replaced and detents replaced (if you know, you know)
New OEM Sachs Clutch with dual mass flywheel @ time of rebuild.
Many parts have been replaced over the years including the heater core.
Cold A/C
Solid chassis with KW V1 Coilovers. Car is entirely stock otherwise.

The Bad:
Hood paint is faded, and driver’s side front fender is starting to fade.
Convertible top doesn't work and has a small tear on the rear faded window, but comes down manually with no problem.
Driver seat is torn. Last owner did a glove box delete.
Will need new tires and rear brake pads soon.
Air bag light is on for driver seat belt buckle (typical e36)
It’s a 26 year old car with ORIGINAL paint, so expect cosmetic imperfections

This has been my fun weekend car, but I'm looking to downsize and move on. If you’re looking for a mechanically sorted E36 M3 that just needs some cosmetic love, this is it.

Clean title in hand. Comes with one original key and factory remote. Current registration with no back fees. Serious inquiries only.

Please email if interested and feel free to ask as many questions as you want. I have nothing to hide and have plenty of photos.
Thanks!
