The E36 generation M3 boasts high-performance capabilities, a venerable S50 inline-six engine, and classic BMW styling. This 1995 Coupe comes finished in Dakar Yellow over a Black Nappa leather interior and features a Turner Motorsports Stage 1.5 tune, a Borla cat-back exhaust, a custom front spoiler, Euro-glass headlights, and several other tasteful modifications. Residing in Virginia for much of its life, this M3 is now being offered for auction with approximately 75k miles on the odometer.
This M3 comes finished in Dakar Yellow and features a custom front lower spoiler, smooth glass European-spec headlights, and custom motorsport badges along the door trim. The 17” factory-correct alloy wheels are fitted with Yokohama S tires dated 17/18 mounted within the last 1k miles. The seller notes that the mirrors were repainted due to sun fading and minor road wear is present as depicted in the photo gallery along with a clean CARFAX report. The exterior has undergone paint correction and a full ceramic coating in 2019.
The cabin sports Black Nappa leather upholstery and features air conditioning, cruise control, heated front seats, a full onboard trip computer, and an electric sunroof. Modifications include a Nardi Gara steering wheel, an Alpine radio, a period-correct Sound Spectrum EQ, and LED interior lighting. The seller notes that the airbag indicator takes a few minutes to turn off, and the radio is currently inoperable due to an absent amplifier. The seller also reports a seatbelt buckle and the door cards show signs of wear, detailed images are provided in the gallery.
The S50B30US 3.0-liter inline six-cylinder engine is rated at 240 HP from the factory and drives the rear wheels through a 5-speed manual transmission and a limited-slip differential. Modifications include a Turner Motorsports Stage 1.5 Power Kit installed at 70k miles, which includes larger injectors, a larger Euro mass air sensor, a larger cold air intake, a Turner chip, and a Borla stainless steel cat-back exhaust system. The suspension was upgraded with Fortune Auto 510 Series coilovers, front and rear strut and shock tower reinforcement plates, a Z3 X Brace Kit, and an ECS front strut tower brace. A recent service was carried out at 70k miles including new spark plugs, brake rotors, brake pads, sensors, stainless steel brake lines, and brake fluid flushed. The seller adds that oil changes have been carried out annually with high-quality Liqui Moly Molygen motor oil, most recently at 74,500 miles.
This sale will include the owner’s manual, two keys, two alarm remotes, and a clean title.

@Lastsin Thank you and to my knowledge I would guess it should. The car still retains its original exhaust manifolds and catalytic converters. The only part of the exhaust that has been modified is the bolt on rear Borla muffler and the center resonator delete. All other original emissions equipment on the car are untouched.
Will this pass smog in California? Beautiful color and condition.

@Psuluke Front camber and caster is adjustable as well.
@Psuluke Yes it is almost at its lowest setting without any interference or rubbing at the moment. It can be raised up to just about stock ride hight and with the advantage of having a 24 step compression and rebound adjustments for any type of ride you prefer.
Is the suspension able to be returned to a relatively normal ride height?
Welcome and thank you for checking out one of my bucket list cars. Feel free to ask any questions you like and best of luck to anyone and everyone that bids on this truly amazing icon..
