This 2002 BMW M Coupe Is A Nice, And Unconventional, Choice

The BMW M Coupe, also known as the Z3 M Coupe, is a real head-turner and a rare example painted in Laguna Seca Blue is currently up for sale.

Listed on Bring A Trailer, this is apparently one of just 16 North American examples painted this color. It was first registered in Texas, is currently located in Oregon and comes with factory literature, an accident-free Carfax report, and a clean Oregon title.

Powering the sports car is a 3.2-liter naturally aspirated S54 inline-six that’s good for 315 hp and 251 lb-ft (340 Nm) of torque. This engine is coupled to a ZF five-speed manual transmission driving the rear wheels through a limited-slip differential. The M Coupe has also been equipped with a Supersprint exhaust and we’re sure is an absolute ball to drive.

Complementing the bright exterior paintwork are 19-inch BBS RS-GT two-piece alloys with gray centers and polished lips. Wrapped around these wheels are Goodyear Eagle F1 tires measuring 255/35 up front and 265/30 at the rear.

A peek inside the interior reveals heated and power-adjustable sports seats clad in Laguna Seca Blue and black Nappa leather, alongside a matching dashboard, center console, door panels, and black carpets with M-branded floor mats. Also included is cruise control, a CD stereo, and air conditioning.

The car has just under 33,000 miles (~53,000 km) on the clock and is already attracting quite a lot of attention. In fact, the highest bid was sitting at $57,500 at the time of writing, with one day still left until the end of the auction.
