im very interested but cant seem to contact you.
how are the tires doing and what knid are they?
how are they brakes doing? are they OEM? have they ever been altered?
was this car ever modded more than it is now?
Member
Hmm, did you try sending a PM?
The tires are Falken RT-615. They have lots of meat left. There is a pic on my site that shows the tread depth. They have ~7-8K miles on them. Brakes are in great shape. OEM rotors and Hawk pads (HP+ I think). Tons of life left in the pads.
I was very hesitant to mod the car as I loved it from the factory. I know it has body roll and can understeer if you over-drive it but to me it didn't degrade the experience. The biggest change was the 3.73 diff as I believe BMW sabotaged the performance of the S54 M Coupe with the 3.15 to protect the M3. The pads and fluid (Superblue) are aftermarket. The only other "mods" are the Racing Dynamics pedals which help with heel and toe and the euro turn indicators up front. No suspension changes, no ECU mods, no exhaust, nothing. Just what's listed in the description. Hope that helps. Let me know if you have more questions.

for some reason i dont get PMing as an option when i click on other's usernames. weird. thanks for the update. let me stew on it for a day.
does swapping the diff mean you also reinforced it to the subframe as well? doesnt the 3.73 have two mount points? as opposed to the OEM diff which has only 1 mounting point.
this would be a good selling point if so, given the nature of these cars.

The 3.73 is a direct replacement. I installed new OEM M-specific half-shafts when installed. The subframe is unchanged.

Are comparable Roady's selling for $20k?
Member
Sorry, not interested in trades. Sounds like a nice car though.
silvermroady
No, but the argument works the same the other way around...I haven't seen an MC sold for 30K in quite some time.Are comparable Roady's selling for $20k?
Mdork, how about i throw in the hardtop, and another G? Still no interest? That's 11G+2000M roady 26k miles+hardtop...I know it's prolly still a no...
GLWS, very nice car by the way.

Congrats! I'm curious who the new owner is. Are they on the forum?

I won't spoil the surprise for him. Once the deal is final I'm sure you'll find out. I can tell you there was a lot of interest and I have no doubt it will go to a good home.
