Seller Description

Purchased from the second owner over the summer. Low mileage local 1999 BMW M Roadster finished in Estoril Blue over two tone leather interior with 72k miles and a clean CARFAX and title that is on hand. Extras include factory hard top with cart/cover, authentic AC Schnitzer wheels and exhaust, and Dinan software, throttle body, cold air intake, and front strut tower brace.

At purchase I addressed any and all issues that were identified during the PSI including replacing the rear shocks, a power steering hose, passenger side window regulator, etc. Since then I have also replaced the fuel pump, flushed tranny fluid, replaced several interior bits that were showing wear, and swapped out the driver seat rail bushing that make the seats travel a 1/2 inch on stopping and acceleration in these cars. I have also had all four wheels refinished and had PDR done to remove any dings.

The only modifications I have made were to swap out the stock head unit (included with sale) for a high end Pioneer deck with bluetooth and satellite radio functionality. I also swapped the stock speakers with the BSW upgrade kit. I also had the windows professionally tinted to preserve the condition of the interior. The 60k service was done so nothing but scheduled maintenance is needed up to 90k. Tires have deep tread, brakes have a great deal of life, and the clutch is strong. While the S52 does the have the power of the S54 engines the Dinan modifications and exhaust do a wonderful job of closing the gap. This is an exhilarating car to drive with zero deferred maintenance or cosmetic issues.

The only flaws I can identify are a small crack in the shifter trim which I have a replacement on hand, there are two bulbs out in the HVAC knobs which I have as well, and the rear window on the soft top could be replaced at some point.

I am sure I am forgetting something, if I sound a little OCD you would be correct. My asking price is firm and is a bit less than I am into this car. Only reason for sale is that I need something with a rear seat and a bit bigger for my aging frame. Pictures are from last summer, I am in the process of a clay/polish/wax treatment on her in the near future.

Please let me know what questions you have, cheers!

Sounds like a very well-sorted roadster. The hard top, AC Schnitzer wheels, and Dinan upgrades are huge plusses along with all the great recent maintenance. I think the price seems very fair.
