Introducing the 1998 BMW M3 Sedan
So, you’ve been roaming around the car market, lost in a sea of choices. How about this gem: a 1998 BMW M3 sedan, clocking in with a mere 86,000 miles under its belt? Originally hitting the roads in Ohio, it has since enjoyed the southern charms of Georgia and Florida. Rest assured, no rust-coloured surprises lurking beneath its sleek surface.
Under the hood, it’s all business with a 3.2-liter inline-six engine paired with a smooth five-speed manual transmission. Finished in a stunning Arctic Silver Metallic, this car isn’t just eye candy. Inside, you’ll find exquisite Light Gray Nappa leather upholstery. But, wait – there’s more…
Bells and Whistles Galore
- Limited-slip differential
- Sunroof to soak up sunny drives
- Fog lights that actually work
- Stylish 17″ Style 39 wheels
- Cruise control for laid-back cruises
- Heated front seats
- A nostalgic cassette stereo
- Dual-zone climate control
- A factory alarm system with a convenient remote fob
And here’s a tease: It’s being passed on by the current dealer, who acquired it in 2025, complete with a squeaky clean Carfax report and a pristine Florida title.
Exterior Finery
Wrapped in Arctic Silver Metallic – a color that sounds as cool as it looks – this M3 features all the essentials: fog lights, a sunroof, and those signature dual exhaust outlets. The factory aerodynamic bumpers, side sills, and mirrors are still present and accounted for. Check out the gallery below for close-up shots that let you see the shine from every angle.
Wheels and Suspensions
Sitting on staggered-width 17″ Style 39 wheels, the car is decked out with Michelin Pilot Sport tires – because who wants their high-performance driving experience dampened by mediocre treads? It’s got a sport-tuned suspension, traction control, and four-wheel ventilated disc brakes to keep this beast’s power firmly under control.
Sumptuous Interior
Step inside and experience manual precision with adjustable, heated sport seats crafted from Light Gray Nappa leather. Matching door panels and carpets complete the plush environment. Features include:
- Cruise control
- An onboard computer in case you need to do calculations on the go
- A cassette stereo paired with a six-disc CD changer in the trunk (both a blast from the past!)
- Dual-zone automatic climate control
- A factory alarm for peace of mind
The steering wheel is wrapped in leather, giving you that perfect grip as you spy on a 160-mph speedometer and accompany gauges for coolant temperature, fuel economy, and fuel level. Fancy, I know. And yes, the digital odometer indeed shows 86k miles.
The Heart and Soul: The Engine
At its core, this BMW runs on a 3.2-liter S52B32 inline-six engine – power you can feel, rated at an impressive 240 horsepower and 236 lb-ft of torque. Power whizzes to the rear wheels via that delightful five-speed manual transmission, working in harmony with a limited-slip differential.
Rock-Solid Reliability
To round things off, here’s the good news: The trusty Carfax report tells no tales of accidents or pesky damages. It’s a smooth ride all around.
So, if you’re ready to elevate your driving experience, you might just have found your next ride. Don’t let this BMW slip through your fingers—it’s a legacy on wheels waiting to be owned.
