2004 BMW M3

Description

This 2004 BMW M3 is one of the best all-around sports cars for backroads fun, and yet, somehow BMW also gave it an everyday sense of practicality. This makes for a luxury car that is easy to take everywhere from Cars & Coffee to the morning commute. And when you discover a new stretch of twisty blacktop, you know a heart-pounding experience is only a downshift away. This versatility has earned legendary status, so you can understand how a lucky one could be as well-respected as this low-mileage example.

This generation M3 does quite a nice job blending an aggressive sports car style without looking like an immature exotic. The integrated factory body kit, subtle power dome in the hood, wide fender flares, 18-inch wheels, and quad tailpipes give it a dose of attitude. But it all fits together with the kind of German precision that looks like a finely-pressed European suit. And the Titanium Silver Metallic fits this overall attitude correctly. It shows all the right signs of being the factory application, and premium build quality and exceptional care keep it looking outstanding today. And the sleekness adds to the sporty attitude where you just know this M3 will earn a nickname like "Quicksilver" in your garage.

The black interior continues this smart-looking premium package. After all, black goes so well with silver that hits one was even optioned with the expensive aluminum trim. The supple leather upholstery, door panels, dash, carpeting, and other fundamentals show the kind of respect that lets you know the M3 is a responsible sports car. It makes for an inviting atmosphere, especially with its level of features. This BMW has cruise control, power windows, power locks, keyless entry, and a premium Harman-Kardon AM/FM/CD stereo. Power windows and a power sunroof open this coupe up nicely, and if those breezes aren't the ideal temperature, the automatic climate control will deliver the proper comfort. This is a modern classic, which means modern safety features such as dual front airbags, side airbags, and anti-lock brakes. But even with all these luxuries, you'll be reminded this is a true driver's car the moment you rest your right hand on the sports shifter and your left-hand grabs the three-spoke sports steering wheel - note the M-level red and blue stitching in the leather of this detail-oriented coupe.

The 3.2-liter inline six-cylinder motor is a marvel of engineering. BMW built it to sing happily up to 8,000 RPM, but it also has the sensibilities to drive the commute with ease. You get to choose its attitude with the control of the desirable manual six-speed transmission. BMW is one of the best companies at engineering chassis, so the fully independent suspension of the M3 has often been at the top of the enthusiast magazine's wish lists. Add this to four-wheel disc brakes, power steering, Michelin Pilot sport tires, and a near 50/50 front/rear weight distribution, and now you know why an M3 will always be a symbol of the open road.

The sale comes with the original window sticker, owner's manual packet, and maintenance records. The BMW M3 is often a car you promised yourself one day, and if you act quick enough, this exceptionally preserved coupe can properly fulfill your pledge. Call today!!!
