2023 BMW M3 Competition xDrive

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$99,500
SOLD

BMW’s 3-Series is a fine compact luxury car, embodying BMW’s spirit of creating the Ultimate Driving Machine. The default choice for many petrolheads for decades, BMW had the bright idea of pushing the envelope and creating a halo variant in the mid 1980s. Their efforts came to fruition with the E30 M3 that ran between 1986 and 1991. With its fizzy four-cylinder engine and myriad performance enhancements, the letter-and-number pairing of M3 quickly gained a reputation. Ever since then, every 3-Series has been accompanied by an M3. Engines grew from four to six to eight cylinders, and then went back to six, albeit with turbocharging. This particular 2023 BMW M3 Competition from Sunset, Texas is from the current G80 series and has just 5,000 miles on the clock. Plus it’s got the Competition Package for an even more hardcore driving experience, while retaining the family-friendliness that the 3-Series is known for.

2023 BMW XM

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$99,999

The 2023 BMW XM isn’t just a new model; it is a seismic shift for the M Division.

This striking example, finished in Black Sapphire Metallic over Black Merino Leather, has covered 24,827 miles and represents the dawn of electrified M Power. It is a high-performance paradox—a 6,000-pound titan that can sprint like a supercar, crawl silently on pure electric power, and command more road presence than anything else in its class. For the collector or driver who demands a vehicle that refuses to blend in, this XM is the ultimate statement of "Extraterrestrial" German engineering.

1965 Volkswagen Beetle Sedan

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$30,500

The 1965 Volkswagen Beetle stands as a refined evolution of the iconic Type 1, representing a major milestone in visibility and driver comfort. This model year is highly regarded for its "Big Window" design, featuring a larger windshield and slimmer body pillars that significantly opened up the cabin. This specific example has been treated to a high-quality custom paint job in factory-correct Java Green, capturing the cheerful essence of the mid-sixties with a finish that likely exceeds original production standards. With under 15,000 miles shown, it remains a purist's favorite, retaining the classic link-pin front suspension and the dependable 1.2-liter power unit. This Beetle serves as a turn-key piece of automotive history, offering the simple, mechanical joy that made the "Bug" a global phenomenon.
