WTB 2011 E90 Slicktop 6mt

[rohzzeyM3]

Currently in the process of moving back to the US of A and looking to get in an M3 before heading to Idaho.

I prefer a 2011 but not completely against other years.
Anything above 75k miles please don’t bother.

Trying to avoid blue paint options but not completely against these examples if they’re the right build. Looking for Melbourne Red or Alpine White.

Interior preferred to be speed cloth, black or fox red with carbon or black trim/accents.

Mods are perfectly fine and stock isn’t a problem either.

After previously owning a sedan and recently becoming a father I can’t ever see myself going back to a coupe. So an E90 is a must.

Send me everything you guys have.

Price range: $40k

Beautiful car, but I believe in the title he is asking for 6MT

I don't think "debatable" is the right word for price range, because you are essentially asking for the most sought after version of the car: E90 M3 6MT

Any other criteria? Preferred number of miles? Mods OK or stock car? Preferences on interior color? Anything you can add may help your search.

After previously owning a sedan and recently becoming a father I can’t ever see myself going back to a coupe. So an E90 is ideal. Send me everything you guys have.

Thanks for this. Updated accordingly.

You're sampling from a very small dataset which I imagine you're aware. Back in 2012 I searched for an entire year to find an as-new condition E90 2011 6MT slicktop with very low mileage. There were only 237 2011 6MT slicktops imported to the USA and 2 to Canada. I only later found the actual stats. I too initially had a color desire (Melbourne Red, Interlagos Blue, LeMans Blue), but I had to give up on that since although I found a few examples even though they were at most a year old, the cars had been treated poorly already or had higher mileage than I desired (at the time above 15k miles).

Now it's almost impossible to come across one of those 237 cars, and if you do find one but want to discriminate on its color or options, well, just be prepared for a very long search (potentially lasting well over a year especially if you want a red one as they were 3.5% of LCI production, so roughly perhaps 8-10 cars to try to find with 6MT and slicktop). I still have the one I bought in Feb 2013, and it's just touched 40k miles now, but so far I have no plans to sell.

EXACTLY what this keyboard warrior said a week ago!

237, 137 of those are ZCP, so rarest of the rare is non-ZCP 6MT slicktop, correct? I don't know if I ever found the number for non-ZCP so thanks for confirming.

Certainly less than that still on the road today, too. Mine was a zero option Jet Black 2011 (slick top, no nav, Speed Cloth, 6MT, etc) that was totaled by a negligent teen. Took me about three years to locate.

So there’s 236!
