1999 M Coupe | Estoril Blue | Estoril/Black

 

This M Coupe was posted on garaget.org by schilldoo of Tranas, Sweden. Charlie purchased his M Coupe just a couple of months ago, previously having owned a 2000 Z3 Coupe. The M Coupe is currently all stock, but he plans to make some changes in the future: 19 ” BBS LMs,  AC Schnitzer front lip, Ac Schnitzer spoiler, carbon fiber vinyl on the roof, angel eyes, and super sprint exhaust.

2000 M Coupe | Estoril Blue | Estoril/Black

2000 M Coupe | Estoril Blue | Estoril/Black
 
This M Coupe was posted for sale on trackscotland.co.uk by Colin with 78,327 miles for £11,000 (~$17,753 USD). The seller lists it as a 2001, but under the hood is an S50 (98-00), along with Hyper Silver Roadstars (98-00), and flat M badges all around (98-00). It does have chrome trim ringed headlights and chrome trimmed kidney grille slats which started in 2000. That said, I suspect the 2001 in the title is just a typo and this is a 2000 M Coupe. The sunroof delete Coupe appears to be all stock.

S54B32 M Coupe | Estoril Blue | Estoril/Black

S54B32 BMW Z3 M Coupe | Estoril Blue | Estoril/Black | Z3 M Coupe and Z4 M Coupe Side by Side Comparison

 

This M Coupe was posted on mad4wheels.com among a gallery of a 2006 Z4 M Coupe. My brother tipped me off to these photos, which had been posted on another site, but seem to have originated on mad4wheels.com. It’s always interesting seeing the M Coupe and a Z4 M Coupe side by side. I like the general profile of the Z4 M Coupe, but the transition from the fender to the door kills it for me. It looks like the sunken cheeks of a meth addict. 😉 I’m also not a fan of the front end. It’s so “squarish”, almost flat. The wide kidney grilles look off to me as well, especially compared to the original M Coupe kidney grilles. Something about the taillights looks off to me, too, but I can’t really say what it is. Holistically, I like the overall design of the Z4 M Coupe, but I’m just being nitpicky about the other design elements. That, and I’m a diehard E36/8 fanatic, and love the entire design of the Clown Shoe. Based upon the chrome trim ringed headlights, chrome trimmed kidney grille slats, curved M badges, and Chrome Shadow Roadstars this is an 01 or 02 M Coupe with an S54 under the hood. I wasn’t certain whether the interior color was Black or Estoril/Black, so I searched around for the GBZ 3 plate shown on the Coupe in these photos. I found photos of the same Coupe in an issue of BMW Car magazine which showed an Estoril/Black interior posted on z3mcoupe.com.

2000 M Coupe | Estoril Blue | Estoril/Black | Dinan ISR Package

 

This M Coupe was featured on themotoringenthusiast.com highlighting the Dinan ISR modifications completed, this being the second Coupe to receive the treatment, and the tenth Z3 M. The Fikse FM5 wheels are what really caught my attention about this Coupe. The 17″ diameter, combined with the smaller center, and tall sidewalls (255/40, 285/40) makes for a unique look. There’s a slew of modifications on the Coupe, which I have copied below:
