Very nice.

Not a fan of the stitching on the doors.

Wonder if it's been driven hard.

FWIW, the interior is the base OEM interior (minus the seats). I'm guessing he ordered it that way to keep weight down.

It's not bad...could use CSL rims and a CSL steering wheel. I agree the door panels look retarded.

The First most important miles were put on it. We don't know how he broke the engine in and makes it scetchy that he is selling a car only after 1K miles on it. Not to mention, he is using Ebay as the means of selling it.

I would imagine he is using ebay to sell it because he owns eCarLink? They do alot of sales on ebaymotors.

Yup. Ecarlink does a ton of biz on Ebay.

Msoltanian, I concur with you on the mileage thing. Who knows how he drove during the critical break in period.

eCARLINK is a very reputable ebay seller and I have been there a handful of times and their cars are always top notch. I love the look of this M3 (have owned 3 in the past).
You guys are correct about the OEM cloth interior, it does suck. But he has replaced it with Recaros and just get the CSL CF doors and you're done.

The stitching on the doors is OEM? Also, IMHO the recaro seats look really out of place.

Oh Interested! I just checked out his other sales and saw that you are correct, he does a lot of M sells so maybe he thought a new one would be nice to have as his but it seemed like, it wasn't working out for him. I'm sure someone will buy it for a fact that it has rims and a few goodies and they wouldn't see the important factor of the engine on the car. But then again wouldn't you rather want to customize your car in your own way rather than ...

Am I the only one who likes the door stitching? Although it does look kinda VWesque.
