WTB: West Coast 2002-03 M3 Coupe 6sp Manual

snicker03 · Mon, Apr-05-2010, 06:57:42 PM

I'm searching for a clean M3 on the west side of the US that is a 02-04. Looking to keep the cost under 22,000 for the car.

SMG is fine. Looking for a non-silver car as well, but will consider if it has the right stuff.

My preference is White or Blue.

I've got one that I'm looking to sell for around $17,500, though it is silver

Thanks, I saw your ride here and on Craig's list. Looks clean, but I'm also looking for 75K miles or lower as well. Good luck with your sale and thanks for posting for me.

Why is it so difficult to find a nice 2002-2003, manual with clean paint, and under 75K miles? I see many SMGs that look nice.

have you driven SMG or just read about it?

My friend is a BMW addict and he says to stay away from SMG if I can. It seems to have many problems that I read about and jerky when shifting. I have DSG in my GTI and that transmission is awesome, very seamless shifting. I've been told SMG is ok, but can be a hassle and very expensive to maintenance.

I've changed my mind....SMG is not bad at all. I'll expand my search to include SMG from now on.
