Normal 0 false false false EN-US JA X-NONE This car has a Georgia issued Rebuilt title. My father and I have been dealing with salvaged and rebuilt titled cars for over 10 years, and in our experience, if the carfax did not show it, and I did not tell you, then you would never know most rebuilt/ salvaged cars were even in accidents. The car won’t be significantly discounted because of the title, and if you came and saw her you would understand why. If this troubles you, then do not waste your time reading this add, if you are willing to look past it and get yourself a great car, then keep on reading! You are bidding on a 2002 BMW M3 Coupe that has an actual manual 6 speed transmission (non SMG). With the mileage just under 80,000, you will not find another M3 like it. Any M3 that is priced better will be a convertible, have the SMG tranny, or have much higher mileage. It is a rare find for sure. Just cycle through the pictures and you will see what I’m talking about. The car was originally black, but was repainted at some point. To my understanding of the carfax, it shows two wrecks about a year apart from each other. One was a front collision and one was a rear collision. The carfax says the airbags were deployed in one of the wrecks and also shows an odometer discrepancy, but if you read the carfax and look at the service dates and other check-ins, then you will see the mileage matches up with the current mileage. Carfax flags odometer discrepancies for inaccurate mileage as well as a damaged cluster from a wreck, which is what happened, so the mileage should be correctly represented. I would supply the carfax but unfortunately my login expired on May 20th. I have honestly mentioned everything on it, and if you are still concerned then I definitely suggest purchasing one, as I am not hiding anything. The car is in beautiful shape. The exterior is sharp, the interior is clean, and the motor is really strong (I have never owned an M Series, so don’t laugh at my amazement at this machine!). The car is over 12 years old, so there are signs of normal wear, such as tiny scratches and scuffs here and there, some cloth inside isn’t as tight as it used to be etc. Regardless she is in great shape and an absolute blast to drive. This is the second BMW I have owned (2008 5 Series) and she isn’t like anything else I’ve ever owned. I bought her with an upgraded suspension kit, which is good because the stock suspensions on the e46’s tend to go out often. She has smoked taillights, premium M3 18 Inch Gunmetal Alloy rims, window tint all around, and premium Harmon Kardon sound system. When I got her, she needed all four tires replaced, which I did with all new Bridgestone Potenza Ultra High Performance tires. 99.99% tread all around. I also replaced two mid-bass, mid range, and tweeter speakers with premium Bavarian Soundwerks speakers which has made her sound much better. As far as noticeable negatives with the car, I haven’t noticed much. Like I stated before she is 12 years old so perfection is all but lost. Cigarette lighter is missing, and the little latch that closes the compartment where the lighter rests doesn’t stay shut. The radio and handsfree buttons on the left side of the steering wheel don’t work, but the cruise control buttons on the right side work perfectly. I’m guessing the left controls were not reconnected when the airbag was replaced. She also has no spare in the trunk. Aside from those, just minor scratches and normal wear. The low miles have really kept her young. The reason I am selling is because I am going to start commuting back and forth to Atlanta several times a week in the summer for school and she is my only car, and I feel terrible racking up miles on a baby like her, so I am selling her to pay for a smaller car to get me back and forth to school. Not to mention she is a sports car with 330 horsepower, and bumper to bumper Atlanta traffic is no place for a beast like her! So there you have it. Please don’t hesitate to call or message for any questions or concerns. You can reach me after 3pm on my cell at 770-596-8710 or through eBay. I will be out of town for the week, but if you would like to see the car and test drive someone will be available to meet with you any time before 3pm. Title is in hand and ready to sign. I prefer to meet at a bank to do the transaction once a buyer has committed, so cashiers checks are preferred, but cash is fine if we are at a bank. A $500 PayPal deposit is required immediately after auction close. I reserve the right to end the auction early as the car is also listed locally. Please bid with confidence from a 100% eBay feedback seller. Good Luck! -Mike
