i got mine partially because i didnt dare to get this one. wanted something more modern after having been fed up with e36s reliability. Still, while i use the Z4 Coupe daily, the M Coupe would be a perfect sunday car.

Z3 coupe 01-02 225hp 3.0l M Coupe 99-00 240hp 3.2l s52 FWIW mine dynoed at 220hp as did dozen others the same day :-) M Coupe 01-02 315hp 3.2l s54 This is for US models. My 00 Dakar Yellow M coupe is the only car I could not sell. After 4 years of autox, I retired the car to the garage. Every 2 years or so I think about selling it, but after a short 1hr drive I change my mind. Its my first BMW that I bought brand new and I plan on keeping it around. |

Sweet! Nice to see this on the main page. I'm in the market right now for an M-Coupe. Never should have sold my '99. I've got my sights on one of two 2002 M-Coupes...just waiting on my 2nd car to sell. Can't wait to get back into the driver's seat of the best BMW ever (IMHO)! :-)
