This M Coupe was posted on bmw-syndikat.de by sergevermeulen of Soleuvre, Luxembourg. This sunroof delete, Imola/Imola M Coupe would be a pretty rare bird in NA with only 13 specced just like it. With 2,178 LHD S50 M Coupes, and 2,180 LHD S52 M Coupes, I’d imagine the distribution would be somewhat similar. It appears to be all stock. At didn’t catch the plate at first glance, but it’s pretty cool – MZ 32000.

As I was headed to the airport on Monday, I spotted a Coupe in Tualitin, OR. This time we were headed the same direction. It was an Imola over Imola/Black with flat M badges and non-chrome trimmed headlights, making it a 1999 or 2000 with an S52 under the hood. The Roadstars seem to be darker than the Hyper Silver but brighter than Chrome Shadow, so I’m guessing they have been refinished. It was pretty cool seeing 2 Coupes in the same weekend while I was in Oregon. That’s more than I’ve seen in Phoenix in a year.

This M Coupe was posted on autogespot.com by auto-moto0611 after spotting it in Knokke-Heist, Belgium. Based upon the chrome trim ringed headlights, chrome trimmed kidney grille slats, curved M badges, and Chrome Shadow Roadstars, this is a 2001 or 2002 with and S54 under the hood. It appears to be all stock, aside from what might be aftermarket suspension. Although, it’s difficult to tell from the angle of the photos. This LHD Euro M Coupe is one of only 269 produced, and even more rare is the sunroof delete. I applaud the owner of this Coupe for proudly representing the Coupe Cartel, even if it is was with blue painters tape. I’m curious what event the owner was headed to or from that prescribed decking out the Coupe like this.

This M Coupe was posted on gumtree.com in Stirling, UK with 93,000 miles for £9,750 (~$15,140 USD). The seller has owned it for 5 years, but needs to sell due to a job relocation. He indicates that it has been maintained at any expense, including having the VANOS replaced. It is all stock aside from carbon fiber look badges all around, and the Roadstars have been refinished in anthracite paint. I think the darker finish looks great against the Arctic Silver paint. The Arctic Silver over Imola Red is a rare combo in North America with only 32 sold. With only 821 RHD S50 M Coupes in Europe compared to 2,180 LHD S52 M Coupes in NA, this is likely an even more rare combo. It’s a great looking Coupe.

This M Coupe was posted on autogespot.com by Jurick after spotting it in Delft, Netherlands. I posted photos of this same sunroof delete Coupe last year, and it mostly looks the same this time around. There are some additional angles, and more closeup photos posted now. Oddly, it looks like the owner either removed the aftermarket suspension, or significantly adjusted the coilovers to reduce the drop. I liked the look of the suspension height better in the previous photos. Based upon these photos, I’d say that matte black vinyl is tough to keep looking clean, as there isn’t that much grime on the Coupe, but what’s there stands out like a sore thumb. Looking at the closeup photos of the powder coated Roadstars, I was surprised to see the amount of of curb rash visible, and that it wasn’t repaired before they were coated. Based upon the flat M badges, and non-chrome trim ringed headlights, I’d say this is a 1998 or 1999.
