Up for sale is my 2000 M Roadster with 102,000 miles. I’ve owned this car for about 5 years and spent countless hours reconditioning and maintaining it. It was always my second car that I never got to drive as much as I wanted to. The car runs great and will get you anywhere you wish to go. Cosmetically, it’s in a driver’s condition. It does turn heads, but it will not win any shows. There are some dings and scratches that are normal for this age. The front bumper cover is slightly misaligned (as you can see in the pictures). It has been in a minor accident prior to my ownership, but as far as I know the body parts are all original. During my ownership, a drunk driver backed into it and dented the hood/grille area. The body shop that completed the repair did not do a perfect job, but it is still presentable.
Within the last 10k miles, the following maintenance/repairs have been completed:
- regular oil changes
- rear window replacement
- power top microswitch
- P/S reservoir and return hose
- Intake elbow
- Air filter
- Complete cooling system overhaul
- Driver seat leather replaced
- Seat belt guides
- Seat tilt kit
- Hazard switch
- Center console trim
- Door handle gaskets
- Falken RT660 tires with plenty of thread
- Zimmermann rake rotors
- StopTech sport brake pads
- Brake system flush
- Repaired curb rash on wheels
- Koni shocks with HR springs
- Shock mounts
- LCABs
- Sway bar links
- Engine and transmission mounts
- Aluminum splash shield
- VANOS rebuilt
- Valve cover gasket
- Spark plugs
- Clutch master
- Clutch slave
- Stainless steel clutch line
- Stainless steel brake lines in front
- CSB
- Guibo
- Diff and transmission oil
If sold for asking price, I will include a top cover, oil pump nut, oil pan gasket, oil pan baffle, complete rear end bushing set, Randy Forbes kit and Magnaflow cat-back exhaust system. Another bonus is that this car came with a hard top originally. Although the PO did not have it, the car does come with all the hardware, which is quite expensive.
The not so good:
- 1 trunk weld has popped. I bought the car like this. (it has not gotten worse during my ownership)
- Trunk floor appears to have been replaced (this was BMW’s “fix” to the common separation issue)
- Rear bushings should be refreshed (parts can be included in the sale)
- The top does leak at side windows and at the rear window. The leaks really only present themselves when it rains hard, which is why I always use the top cover when the car is parked outside of the garage.
- Keyless entry inop. I don’t have the remote and I removed the original rear-view mirror (it is leaking internally and is included)
- It does have the 5th gear lean when cold. It has really not caused any issues, so I never bothered to replace it.
- There is a slight transmission fluid leak from the selector shaft seal. (The part comes with the car)
$14500 OBO.
I am an adult and an avid BMW enthusiast. Let me know if there is anything else I can answer for you! I try to be as transparent as I can and would like to avoid any kind of surprises.
At a risk of sounding shady, I am planning to donate approx 1/3 of the sales proceeds to a reputable org.
