BMW M3 2009 (E90 LCI)

Description

This 2009 BMW M3 sedan is finished in Silverstone II Metallic over Fox Red Novillo leather and is powered by a 4.0-liter V8 paired with a six-speed manual transmission. Equipment includes 19″ forged Style 220 wheels, a limited-slip differential, adaptive xenon headlights, a sunroof, dual-zone automatic climate control, cruise control, and iDrive with navigation and Apple CarPlay compatibility. The car was first registered in Texas and remained in the state until 2020 before being acquired by the seller in September 2021, and it now has 114k miles. This E90 M3 is offered with the owner’s manual, service records, a BMW sunshade, two key fobs, spare parts, a clean Carfax report, and a clean California title in the seller’s name. The car is finished in Silverstone II Metallic and features Shadowline trim and adaptive xenon headlights as well as rain-sensing wipers, a glass sunroof, body-color side marker trim, a trunk lid spoiler, and quadruple exhaust outlets. The front bumper cover was resprayed under previous ownership. There is a chip near the base of the windshield and paint blemishes around the exterior can be viewed in the gallery below. Forged 19″ Style 220 wheels are mounted with 245/35 front and 265/35 rear Falken Azenis FK510 tires showing date codes from 2020 and 2021. Braking is handled by four-wheel vented and cross-drilled discs measuring 14.2″ and 13.8″ front and rear, respectively. The car features Dynamic Stability Control (DSC), and Bilstein dampers have been fitted. The power-adjustable front sport seats are upholstered in Fox Red Novillo leather, and Carbon Structure Leather trim accents the dashboard and doors. Amenities include dual-zone automatic climate control, cruise control, WeatherTech front floor mats, and iDrive with navigation. A shift knob reportedly sourced from an M5 and an Apple CarPlay-compatible MMI unit have been installed. The aftermarket flat-bottom steering wheel features tri-color stitching and frames an M-branded tachometer, a 200-mph speedometer, a central information display, and gauges for oil temperature and fuel level. The digital odometer indicates 114k miles, approximately 5k of which were added under current ownership. The 4.0-liter S65 V8 features double-VANOS variable valve timing and was factory rated at 414 horsepower and 295 lb-ft of torque. Service performed in late 2021 included replacing the rod bearings, motor mounts, oil pan gasket, and spark plugs along with performing an oil change. A recent inspection noted a leaking steering gear and valve cover gaskets, a needed recharge of the air conditioning system, and a loose muffler hanger. Power is sent to the rear wheels through a six-speed manual transmission and a Variable M Differential Lock. The Carfax report shows no accidents or other damage and lists registration history in Texas and California.
