Will be looking for $16,000 once officially listed for sale. Wanted to give an early heads up to the enthusiast community. Car is located near Folsom, CA.

I purchased this car from an enthusiast and it has been maintained very well during mine and the previous owner’s care. I have a very detailed spreadsheet of the service and care this car has received - including nearly every gas station fill-up.

I have been driving specifically E46 since 2014. I have owned five in this ten year span. The Imola ZHP in the last picture was purchased in 2020 and sold in 2022. I couldn’t let my coupe go at that time.

2003 BMW 330Ci Topaz Blue Metallic/Grey Leather
2nd owner - I purchased from UCSB/UCLA professor sight unseen in 2018 with 33,143 miles.
Just over 75,200 miles and will not increase much.
I am getting the front bumper resprayed- some clear coat failure started popping up late last year.
Apex EC-7 18x8.5 et35 + brand new Michelin PS4S 255/35 all around.

Driving mods: KW V1 coilovers with camber plates, CAtuned adjustable sway bar end links, DINAN front strut brace, DINAN throttle body, Shark Injector flash tune (passes CA smog), E60 545i short shift lever, ZHP style 5-speed shift knob.

Comfort mods: BlueBus Bluetooth controller installed in trunk, 3M Ceramic IR film 70%F/15%R, convex driver’s side mirror, BavSound Stage 1 plug-n-play speaker kit.

Last oil change performed at 71,870 miles on 09/07/2023 at Valley Motorwerks in Rancho Cordova. When car was on the lift, they noted some oil around the oil pan indicating the gasket will need to be replaced in the future.

Maintenance I performed: 10/31/2019 45,500 spark plugs, DISA rebuild (G.A.S. kit), replaced cracked vacuum lines
11/23/19 46,203 Textar brake pads and Zimmerman rotors, Pentosin DOT4 brake fluid flush,
1/13/2020 47,750 engine intake filter, cabin air filter

6/3/20 51,556 OFHG, Bosch alternator, cabin air filter, vanos oil line
6/18/2022 57,639 cooling system incl. radiator, upgraded to Stewart EMP water pump, belts, power steering reservoir, cap, inlet/outlet lines, Pentosin CHF-11S
7/18/22 59,115 fuel cap
2/2/2023 65,380 engine intake filter, upper and lower intake boots, DINAN throttle body
1/3/2024 73,500 windshield wipers, cabin air filter

Plus more, I would be happy to share my spreadsheet with buyer.

Oil changes performed every 5,000-7,500 miles.

Shows very well for its age, but does have some dings. Grey leather interior shows minor wear in driver’s area (seat back and arm rest discoloring), but no rips/tears. Overall 8.5 or 9/10 inside and out. Car handles extremely well and needs very little maintenance.

Maintenance parts and full car poly bushing upgrades, all new in box, will be included in the sale. If you prefer BMW wheels on the car, I can keep the EC-7’s and put on my backup wheels - very good condition style 135 18x8 et20, which have plenty of tread but may need replacing due to age. We can discuss this wheel swap if needed and difference in price.





The replacement is coming home with me next week. It’s a 2016 BMW M235i with 44,300 and 6-mt. Melbourne Red Metallic over black, carbon fiber and Alcantara interior trim, M Perf exhaust.



I am motivated to sell to someone who will appreciate this rare low mileage gem.
