FOR SALE: 2018 BMW M3 Competition

HOW IT ALL BEGAN

For years, I had been chasing the right M3. A few deals slipped through in 2020 and 2021, and honestly, it started to feel like it might never happen. But then I found this one—a Yas Marina Blue over Silverstone interior—and it stopped me in my tracks. At the time, I was still new to the BMW world. I didn’t fully understand just how special that color combo was. All I knew was it was bold, totally outside my usual comfort zone, and somehow… exactly what I wanted.

I did the homework, realized how rare the spec was, and made the leap. I’ve never looked back. Over the past three years and 15,000 miles, this car has given me more than just great drives. It’s been part of memories with my fiancé, weekend cruises with the kids (who somehow instinctively knew to respect it), and moments that reminded me why we fall in love with cars in the first place. Whether it was a run to the gas station or a short road trip, this M3 turned heads, sparked conversations, and brought joy every single time it left the garage.

It’s never seen snow or salt, barely even rain. Winters were spent in the garage, on a lithium charger, safe and dry. This wasn’t just a car to me—it was a passion project, a personal chapter, and a source of happiness. But now it’s time for someone else to write the next chapter with it.

WHERE DID I PURCHASE THE M3?

I purchased this 2018 M3 Competition on May 20, 2022, from Momentum Motorcars in Georgia. At the time, it had just under 8,800 miles and came from the original owner in Texas. A good friend of mine—who lives locally—test drove the car for me before I committed. After his drive, he called and said, “You’d be an idiot not to buy this car.” He wasn’t wrong. I locked it in the same day and never regretted it.

WHY AM I SELLING?

Life priorities shift, and right now, cars just aren’t at the top of mine. I’m transitioning into a more practical setup for my family, with an eye on a BMW X7 to better fit our needs (and our three growing boys). The M3 has been an incredible car to own—equal parts performance and personality—and we’ve made some amazing memories with it along the way.

But lately, it spends more time parked than driven. As much as I’ve enjoyed it, I’d rather see it go to someone who will actually use it the way it was meant to be driven. It’s time for someone else to make their own memories with this car.

This sale isn’t about needing to let go. It’s about simplifying, focusing on experiences, and keeping what matters most front and center. I’ll get another weekend toy down the road. Right now, it’s time to be a little more practical.

PRICE: $65,000
