Overview of 2005 BMW M3 Coupe For Sale by Owner

The BMW M3 is widely regarded as one of the finest driver teaching tools ever made. It’s the high-performance derivative of BMW’s 3-Series compact car, and has been around since the first E30 M3 came around in 1986. From that time forwards, every 3-Series has had an M3 in its model mix. Today’s 2005 BMW M3 comes from the E46 era of 2000 to 2006, which is the last to have a high-revving naturally aspirated straight six under the hood – consecutive M3s used a V8 or a turbocharged six. This particular car from Burlingame, California is reportedly a track-ready build with JRZ Pro suspension, Volk Racing TE37 18-inch wheels and reportedly packs a new S54 engine with approximately 10,000 miles on it. It’s also said that the transmission is also new, and has around 3,000 miles on it.

Exterior and Interior

This 2005 BMW M3 is definitely made for the track, as you can tell from first glance. It’s painted in Imola Red, but the most prominent feature has got to be its sky-high rear spoiler. Then, you notice that the entire car hugs the ground thanks to the JRZ Pro suspension, and rolls on performance tires wrapped around Volk Racing TE37 wheels that are 18 inches in diameter. There’s also a sunroof delete in place. The stripped out interior of this 2005 BMW M3 retains its dashboard, thankfully, as well as the air conditioning and heating. However, it’s been fitted with a roll cage and has just a single Recaro seat for the driver. There’s also a CAE shifter but everything else appears stock, save for the steering wheel.

Engine

This 2005 BMW M3 is a truly awesome or fearsome beast to drive, depending on how you look at it. In stock form, its S54 engine would have made 338hp at 7,900rpm and 269lb-ft at 4,900rpm. It offers an 8,000rpm redline and has individual throttle bodies for each cylinder. We aren’t told if there are any performance modifications made to the engine, however it’s reportedly a new unit with just 10,000 miles on it. Ditto the manual transmission which is also new and benefits from a new clutch as well. As for braking, we’re told that there are Brembo brakes on all corners.
