Up for sale is my 1997 Cosmos M3. I've owned the car since 2005 and have meticulously maintained it from day one.
So how is this BMW M3 different than the rest? For starters, this Bavarian e36 has only 80,000 miles. That equates to roughly 5,300 miles driven per year, which is well below the 15k/yr national average. Additionally the car has been regularly [and properly] washed, clayed, polished, waxed and garaged. I've always observed the cost of maintenance and upkeep as an investment, and I anticipate the buyer of this e36 m3 will appreciate my attention to detail.
Lastly, please take note of the maintenance records for this m3 and then compare to Edge Motorworks e36 75k Mile List , as this will illustrate the huge cost savings on your end.
Below is a comprehensive -though not complete- list of maintenance items that I have receipts for, so hopefully this will answer some questions up front in regards to the cars history.
64,144 Miles
67,500 Miles
68,500 Miles
68,769 Miles
70,000 Miles
70,496 Miles
70,900
71,300
72,100
75,008
77, 677
80,191
More pictures to come, but hopefully these will suffice for now. Also, the m3 moldings were off for yearly polishing- they're back on now.
Thanks for your interest!:alright
