    1998 BMW M3 Dinan Signature Package

    1998 BMW M3
    Coupe
    Titanium Silver
    5-Speed Manual
    206,000 Miles
    Clean Title - No Accidents


    3 Keys, 2 Fobs (Main key, Valet Key, Wallet Key)


    I purchased this car in 2012 and for the past 7 years I have used it for my daily vehicle. I have always maintained the vehicle with only OEM parts or better and went out of way to always ensure the car was in great working order, most of the time doing preventive maintenance. This Car has been Serviced at Coast Motor Werk, and Lang Racing for almost everything. Engine Oil has always been changed out every 4k mile intervals.


    This vehicle is a true Dinan Signature Package m3. This package includes the cold air intake, throttle body, engine software, exhaust, pedals, and floor mats. The main advantage to this package was the performance aspect as it increased the horsepower of the car by 23hp, improves throttle response, and increased the rev limiter to 7k rpm.


    The car is 20 years old and does have flaws, it’s not perfect as it has been a drivers car. I have used it daily and done several trips to Nevada and Arizona in it, as its been very dependable. Below are things that I would fix to make it perfect.


    Exterior: The paint is decent but has areas that are oxidizing, there are a few dings on the body, the front bumper is pitted and should be replaced (I drove it a lot so it wasn’t worth it for me), front windshield is pitted but not to bad.


    Interior: Passenger Door panel is starting to come apart, I did everything I could to avoid this but it’s an unavoidable e36 thing. Squeaky steering wheel, 11-button obc pixels going out, glovebox is starting to separate, the mount for the emergency jack has broking off.


    Again I have spent tons of time and money into this car, as it shows, because I truly enjoy it. I have all original parts stored away so it can be put back to stock. Listed below is all the main upgrades to this vehicle w/ my Wheelwell page in case I forget something. Please be serious if you are interested in seeing the car. I will only sell this car to someone that will apprentice it and take care of it as much as I have. I am in no need to sell this vehicle as I would still love to keep it and use it. The only reason I am selling is because I feel it is time to move on to another car to have fun with.


    $16,000
    $14,500 without Recaro Seats


    The Price may seem high, but the car has been well maintained and I have all original parts as well. Please feel free to contact me with any questions.
