This E92-generation BMW M3 is an acclaimed modern classic performance hero, dating from the final year of production and fitted with a set of replacement rod bearings. It is powered by a naturally aspirated 4.0-litre V8, delivering 309kW to the rear wheels through a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission with paddle shift. The car was complied in January 2014, so represents one of the very last E92 M3s brought to Australia. The odometer shows 57,380 kilometres. The car is finished in Interlagos Blue over a black Nappa leather-trimmed cabin, bisected by carbon structure inlays. It rides on a set of genuine 19-inch M3 Competition alloy wheels, fitted with Michelin tyres. Equipment includes front and rear parking sensors, an electric sunroof, electrically adjustable front seats with two-position driver’s memory, cruise control, dual-zone climate control, switchable driving modes, and a widescreen iDrive infotainment system with satellite navigation. Accompanying the sale is the owner’s book pack, service book, and two keys. Please refer to the photo gallery to assess the exterior and interior condition. Specific notes from the seller include: some very minor stone chips on the bonnet, minor scratches on the edges of the doors, and mild creasing on the driver’s seat bolster. All the interior rubber parts are said to be as-new, even with a ‘new car smell’ present. The car retains its original and genuine BMW glass including the windscreen. The paintwork has been professionally ceramic coated. There is a valid NSW registration in place, which expires on 7 October 2024.
