This 2000 BMW 323Ci convertible is specified in Jet Black over Sand Montana leather, and it was optioned with the Sport Package. It is powered by a 2.5-liter M52 inline-six paired with a five-speed manual transmission, and additional equipment includes 17″ Style 45 wheels, a black convertible soft top, bi-xenon headlights, heated power-adjustable front seats, a BMW Business CD stereo, a Hi-Fi sound system, and automatic climate control. The seller purchased the car in 2007 and has since added 55k of the 110k miles indicated. This E46 convertible is now offered at no reserve with the owner’s manual, a damage-free Carfax report, and a clean Massachusetts title in the seller’s name.
The car is finished in Jet Black and features a black convertible soft top as well as bi-xenon headlights, fog lights, power-adjustable side mirrors, and twin exhaust outlets. The convertible top intermittently needs assistance to open, the left grille is loose, there is a dent on the left A-pillar, and there are scratches on the rear bumper. Detailed exterior photos are provided in the gallery.
The 17″ Style 45 wheels are mounted with Continental SuperContact RX tires. The car is equipped a sport-tuned suspension as well as Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) and All Season Traction (AST). Braking is handled by four-wheel ventilated discs. There is a tear in the front-right tire.
The cabin features heated power-adjustable front sport seats upholstered in Sand Montana leather and is accented by wood trim on the dashboard, center console, and door panels. Amenities include driver-seat memory settings, a Hi-Fi sound system, a BMW Business CD stereo with an in-dash changer, automatic climate control, and cruise control. There are signs of wear on the driver’s seat left bolster and dead pixels in the climate control display. Bluetooth capability has been added but functions sporadically.
The multi-function leather-wrapped sport steering wheel frames a 155-mph speedometer, a tachometer with an inset fuel economy gauge, and gauges for coolant temperature and fuel level. The digital odometer indicates 110k miles, approximately 55k of which were added under current ownership.
The 2.5-liter M52TUB25 inline-six features double-VANOS variable valve timing and was factory rated at 170 horsepower and 181 lb-ft of torque.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a five-speed manual transmission.
The Carfax report is free of accidents or other damage. One manufacturer safety recall is noted.
