02 BMW M3 Laguna Seca Blue Cinnamon Low Mileage
2002 BMW M3 Description
This is my 3rd e46 m3 and by far the nicest example I've owned. I've always lusted after an lsb car since seeing my first one in college. When the chance presented itself to buy this pristine example, I jumped on it. I performed some light mods on the car (wheels/suspension/exhaust/intake/exterior) to my liking. I tinkered with the idea of going all out on the car but decided against it. It's just too nice of an example to tear apart. I've since returned the car back to factory settings with the exception of status gruppe adjustable front sway bar links. So here are the details about the car.

I purchased this car with 41,100 miles on it, and has pretty much sat in my garage during my ownership. I could never really bring myself up to drive the car around NYC because of the horrible roads and inconsiderate drivers. I also have two other cars for daily use, so it basically became a garage queen. The car shows really well for its age. The exterior shows really well as does the interior. There is absolutely no dry rotting of any rubber and the exterior trim/plastics look perfect. No dings or scratches (unless noted below). No weird rattles or lights going off. No stories with the car. Never in any accidents and ZERO paintwork. The car drives and pulls like it should with no weird hiccups or issues. This is a no stories car. Please look through my album for very detailed pictures of the entire car.
Known issues with the car.
-I believe a cat or squirrel got on top of the roof at one point. There are some very fine scratches on the roof in front of the sunroof. I've tried to capture pictures of it..
-Previous owner brushed something with the driver's front corner of the car. There is a slight ding/scratch in the driver's front fender where it meets the bumper, and some scratches in the lower part of the bumper. Its been touched up, and I've opted not to repaint in order to retain the factory paint. Please refer to the pictures.
-A couple of mounting holes on the rear trunk handle have cracked. Still functions correctly, but just need to be careful when opening the trunk by the handle. I've got a stock black handle as a replacement but never got around to painting it.
-Air bag recall needs to be performed.
-The original dash trim had started to peel and it annoyed me. So I had them refinished in the stock color, but never got around to doing the rear arm rests since its a pita to get the rear panels off. The passenger rear arm rest looks fine but the drivers side rear arm rest has peeled.
-The front bumper originally had the factory license plate mount drilled into it. I've since taken the license plate mount off but haven't filled the holes.
-Underside of the front bumper is scratched up from curbs and driveways. Its hard to notice unless you're underneath the car.
-A couple small rock chips on the hood that I've touched up.
-Tint is scratched in one part of the passenger side window.
-I only have one key for the car
I've tried to be as transparent on this car as possible but please let me know if I missed anything or you have any additional questions. I have many more detailed pictures available upon request.
