BMW M3 Competition 2012 (E92 LCI)

Description

This 2012 BMW M3 coupe is said to have been initially delivered in Munich, Germany, via BMW’s European delivery program, and it has been registered in Florida from new. It was purchased by the seller from the original owner in August 2012, and 86k of the 92k miles have been added since that time. Specified in Le Mans Blue Metallic over Fox Red and black Novillo leather, the car was optioned with the Competition Package, which added a lowered suspension, Dynamic Damper Control, revised driver’s aids, and 19″ Style 359M alloy wheels. Power is from a 4.0-liter V8 paired with a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission, and additional equipment includes the Premium Package, a limited-slip differential, adaptive xenon headlights, a carbon-fiber roof panel, rear Park Distance Control, power-adjustable front sport seats, navigation, Comfort Access, dual-zone automatic climate control, and cruise control. This E92 M3 is now offered with the owner’s manual, service records, a clean Carfax report, and a clean Florida title in the name of the seller’s business. The car is finished in Le Mans Blue Metallic (381) and features Shadowline trim and adaptive xenon headlights as well as rain-sensing wipers, power-folding side mirrors, a trunk lid spoiler, rear Park Distance Control, and quadruple exhaust outlets. The carbon-fiber roof panel has been refinished. Photos included in the gallery detail various imperfections on the body as well as scratches below the front bumper cover. The 19″ Style 359 wheels are mounted with Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires. Competition Package equipment includes a lowered ride height compared to the standard M3 as well as retuned Electronic Damping Control (EDC) and Dynamic Stability Control (DSC). Braking is handled by four-wheel vented and cross-drilled discs measuring 14.2″ and 13.8″ front and rear, respectively. The brake fluid was flushed in November 2024. The power-adjustable front sport seats are upholstered in Fox Red and black Novillo leather, and Carbon Structure Leather trim accents the dashboard and doors. Amenities include driver seat position-memory settings, iDrive with navigation, Comfort Access, a CD stereo, a power rear sunshade, dual-zone automatic climate control, and cruise control. Wear is evident on the interior surfaces. The multi-function leather-wrapped steering wheel features paddle shifters along with 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 92k miles, approximately 86k of which were added under current ownership. The odometer was repaired in December 2022. 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. The throttle control actuator was replaced in December 2022, and the valve covers, valve cover gaskets, and spark plug tubes were replaced in April 2024. The battery was replaced in January 2025. Power is sent to the rear wheels through a seven-speed M-DCT dual-clutch transmission and a Variable M Differential Lock. The Carfax report is free from accidents or other reported damage.
