WTB M-Sport 128i 6mt

BIMMERPOST / Classifieds
Asking Price:
None

Item Interest
Like the title says, looking to purchase a 128i M-Sport. I'd certainly also consider an E90/92 328i that fits the requirements. Any exterior color (although Le Mans blue would be ideal) and either black, coral, or saddle interior are preferred.

Requirements:
M-Sport
6MT
RWD
under 50k miles (the lower the better)

Bonus but not deal breakers:
Xenons
Heated seats
no iDrive
no sunroof

Located in Hartford area, CT, willing to look nationwide.

Any leads would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

Was hoping for lower miles, get in touch when you're looking to sell though. I'd be at least curious to take a look at it.

I saw that one on cars.com a couple weeks ago and it seems to have sold, it has since been taken down from there. They may not have updated the craigslist ad? Looks like a solid car, although was hoping for lower miles. Thanks for the link though!

This one is up in your neck of the woods. It may not tick all your boxes but it is a 6MT and the kind with an actual stick shift and three actual pedals, and not the "Manual Automatic" dealers like to list as manual.

In contrast, so many dealers list these manuals as automatics as well. Kills me.

Thanks for the link, although I'm going to stick it out for an m-sport. Much appreciated regardless!

It's been frustrating seeing so many auto's listed as manuals while searching, I've never thought to look at cars listed as auto's possibly being manuals though. Now even more time will be spent combing through car ads haha.

patience, maybe. But these get snapped up very fast, and I think you need both patience and a couple grand over KBB. The one I bought last fall was about that over KBB ($15.5) but also had Boston leather, 18" ZHP wheels, new contis, eibachs, and konis. Photo here:

One piece of advice, do not ignore "dealer" listings. In the last 6 months I have seen one in Colorado, and one in Valencia, both 2013 lease returns with about 30k miles. They were $18-19k each. It is easy enough to seek these out, just look for the Msport wheel spoke pattern. Not every dealer knows what they have. When you find them from enthusiasts like us, they are not likely to sell for KBB unless thrashed or high mileage. You probably realize that this particular combination of NA 6 cylinder MT, 50/50 weight distribution, rear drive, seriously good handling, etc. is not likely to re-appear again. These are destined to be a collector model, like the 1M...

It's a tough search but worth it! I wish we could see the production numbers on these. Hold out for the car you want 😎

I had to question if that post was me-- I hear ya, it's rough. I usually just look at photos of M-packaged cars and simply peek inside to see what's actually there.

Agree with the others, take the time and find the one you want. I remember having multiple 128i (MT, MSport) available when I purchased mine, but it seems that they are much harder to find at the moment.

Just be patient, you'll find one!
