The e36 M3 was introduced to the US market in 1995 and utilized the S50 engine. Displacement for its inline six-cylinder block was later bumped to a 3.2 liter S52 engine for the 1996-1999 model years. The e36 M3 is not known for its particularly high horsepower output or fast straight line speeds but rather its incredible chassis with excellent handling characteristics and balance around corners. Its design was much more refined than the previous generation M3 with much less of a “boy racer” look while still maintaining some aggressive, boxy design cues. Though it is not a particularly rare car with 4,574 5-speed Sedan’s produced, only 169 were finished in Titanium Silver Metallic with Gray interior. The e36 generation M3’s have recently gained the attention of the next generation of car collectors. Millennials who grew up along side of the e36 series are now starting to build up the disposable income in order to purchase the cars they have lusted after as children and teens. With the e30 M3 series now in an unattainable price bracket for most aspiring car collectors, the e36 is proving to be the next best option and prices are starting to trend upwards as good examples get purchased by new money in the market for 1990s cars. Finding a car that has not been extensively modified, tracked or neglected with high miles is a tough task. We would venture to say that more than half of the e36 M3 cars produced have over 100,000 miles, or fall into this neglected category of car leading to a scarcity of low mileage, well cared for examples.

The M3 Sedan on offer here, chassis number WBSCD9329WEE09415 is one of those few highly original and well taken care of examples with only 46,863 miles from new. Finished in Titanium Silver Metallic with Gray interior and desirable 5-Speed Transmission. It was purchased new from West German BMW in Fort Washington, Pennsylvania on 6/25/1998 by its current and only owner. Copies of the original purchase paperwork can be viewed in the documents tab of our website along with a clean, one-owner Carfax report. Upon purchasing the car, the owner requested that the BMW dealership add the rear spoiler and mud flaps which are still on the car to this day. At 12,603 miles in summer of 1999, the owner had Devon Hill BMW preform some minor warrantee work and had them install Dinan Stage 2 performance software and Dinan cold air intake which was tuned to accept the Vortech Supercharger that was installed. A Remus exhaust was also added but the stock exhaust is included. These are the only tasteful modifications performed to the car along with a small shift light and radio amplifier (radio head unit is factory and untouched) in trunk that can easily be removed. The one and only doctor owner always took incredible care of this car using only the highest quality lubricants and BMW parts when routine maintenance was required. LBI Limited owner, Adolfo Massari routinely saw this car growing up, as he is a friend of the owner and his son. He can attest to the owner’s care and love for this car. A clean Carfax, all manuals, tools, and original purchasing documents are included in the sale. Overall, this car is an excellent opportunity to purchase a fanatically maintained, highly original M3 Sedan with one owner history and tasteful modifications elevating the driving experience of an already fantastic car.
