BMW E36 M3 Coupe – Estoril Blue Metallic – 5-Speed Manual – 88,334 Miles

Estoril Blue Metallic | Dove Grey Leather | 3.2L Inline-Six | 5-Speed Manual | BMW M Motorsport

Desert Private Collection Motorsports is pleased to present this beautiful BMW E36 M3 Coupe, finished in the iconic Estoril Blue Metallic (BMW paint code 335/5) over an elegant Light Grey, commonly known as Dove Grey, leather interior.

One of the most recognizable colors in BMW M history, Estoril Blue Metallic beautifully complements the E36 M3’s aggressive yet timeless body lines. Paired with its light grey leather interior and traditional manual gearbox, this M3 represents the classic German sports coupe experience that continues to attract BMW enthusiasts and collectors.

Performance and Driving Experience

Under the hood is BMW’s legendary 3.2-liter S52 inline-six engine, factory rated at 240 horsepower and 236 lb-ft of torque. Paired with a desirable 5-speed manual transmission, the E36 M3 delivers a pure, engaging driving experience.

BMW M engineering includes a sport-tuned chassis, four-wheel disc brakes, rear-wheel drive and a limited-slip differential. The result is an exceptionally balanced performance coupe celebrated for its precise handling and responsive naturally aspirated six-cylinder engine.

Exterior – Estoril Blue Metallic

The engine compartment retains its BMW Estorilblau Metallic identification label displaying factory paint code 335/5.

Exterior highlights include the recognizable E36 M3 aerodynamic bodywork, distinctive front fascia, M3 badging, rear decklid spoiler, five-spoke M-style alloy wheels and dual exhaust outlets.

Estoril Blue remains one of the most desirable and recognizable colors associated with BMW’s second-generation M3.

Interior – Light Grey Leather with Motorsport Accents

The light grey leather interior provides a beautiful contrast against the vibrant blue exterior.

A standout feature is the pair of sculpted BMW M sport seats, commonly referred to by enthusiasts as Vader seats, featuring pronounced side bolsters, integrated headrests and BMW Motorsport tri-color accents.

The cabin features a driver-focused dashboard, traditional analog BMW M instrumentation, center console armrest and a classic manual gearshift.

The combination of light grey leather, Motorsport detailing and Estoril Blue paintwork makes this M3 particularly attractive.
