The 2001 BMW M Coupe is the first year to get the fantastic S54 engine that’s shared with the e46 M3. This is the first one I’ve seen listed for sale below $25k.
quote from seller’s listing:

Stock springs, struts and front sway bar included. Dealer maintained and serviced
27k miles and an asking of $24k? What could possibly be wrong with this car? I like all the modifications, but they do tend to devalue a car in the eyes of enthusiast buyers. And it also has that terrible two tone interior, red and black leather. But at this price, I’d consider it a bargain purchase and have the leather dyed!

That would be an amazing trip bringing it home. I still have not forgotten my drive of an M Coupe.
Is the car still available?
