Description

Thank you for taking a moment to visit our latest BMW M3 offering. This 2001 BMW M3 Coupe comes to you in great condition, loaded with desirable features, and well cared for by a local client. With only 96,000  miles, it has tons of life left in it. This car has been well cared for both cosmetically as well as mechanically and is simply ready for a new driver. Just serviced and ready to go, this M coupe will not disappoint.  

The BMW M3 is the benchmark against which all luxury and sports cars are measured.  This car uniquely combines class leading safety features with staggering horsepower and grip.  

Propelled by a magnificent 3.2-liter 6 cylinder engine and coupled to a six-speed manual gearbox, this car's On-Demand 333 horsepower and fantastic torque work together to propel the 3,781-pound M3 convertible from zero to sixty mph in just over five seconds, leaving its competitors far behind.

An exhilarating driving experience involves more than just speed. The driving dynamics of the M3 offers communicative steering and a near-perfectly balanced chassis allowing for the ultimate driving experience. This car will have you searching for that elusive twisty road where you can spool up the revs and extract the exhilarating exhaust note.

 

Again this car is in excellent condition and price to sell. The paint is in great overall condition and has been protected by a clear 3M bra on the bumper, hood, headlights, and side view mirrors. The interior looks excellent and is free of any stains, tears, or odors.

Vehicle History


Insurance
  • Get a GEICO Quote.


Transfer of Title and Risk

We insure the vehicles on our lot during the time we have them available for sale.  Upon completion of the financial elements of the transaction (you paying us), we encourage you to insure the vehicle from that date forward.  We bear NO RESPONSIBILITY for anything that happens to your vehicle once it is out of our control.  Vehicles left at our facility for more than 3 days after payment will not be covered by our insurance unless previous arrangements have been made in writing prior to payment.

Warranty

Balance of Factory Warranty

We estimate factory warranty expiration dates using vehicle production dates and Carfax information.   We are not responsible for factory warranty expiration dates, remaining warranty time, type, validity, or other information. If you want to be certain of the exact warranty expiration date, terms, validity, etc., please verify this information with a certified franchise dealer of the applicable car make.  In the course of business, we try to match our risk with areas where we have control over our service level.  We hope you understand this.   

Terms
Payment Types:Certified Funds and Institutional Financing
Fees:Our auctions have no hidden fees. All in State vehicles are subject to a $110 Documentary fee and out of State vehicles are subject to a $131 Documentary fee. This fee covers the paperwork involved in transferring a vehicle into your name. It applies to dealers, wholesalers, international transactions, priests, you get the gist. We also offer a 30 day transit tag for buyers from outside of PA. This tag is available at a cost to you of $55 and we will need a valid insurance card and driver's license to issue this tag. The last optional service is a Vehicle Prep Package. We offer a Deluxe Detail for $185 which includes the vehicle to be detailed professionally and a full tank of premium fuel when you pick it up (vehicles over 25 gallons may not apply). This may sound odd to you, but we often ship cars, in which case they are sent with very little fuel at the request of the shipping company.
Terms:We require a $500 non-refundable deposit via Paypal within 24 hours of auctions close. This will hold the car for you and you exclusively for up to 7 days while you gather your funds or finalize your financing. We will refuse any other offers on the vehicle and will begin preparing the vehicle and documents for your delivery. Any financing arrangements are strictly between you and the lender and do not impact your contract to purchase the vehicle. The deposit is not refundable if you change your mind or if you cannot obtain financing on the vehicle. Should you need us to hold the car beyond the week, we ask for a deposit of $500 for every $10,000 of vehicle value. This will protect you as well as us. This deposit is the only liquidated damages you would be expected to forfeit should you fail to follow through with our contract to purchase the vehicle. Please call us at (610)644-6112 before bidding to inquire about any special arrangements outside of the terms listed above.

  • Texas Auto Shipping is a fully licensed vehicle shipping company that works with dealerships and direct customers Nationwide. We offer "door-to-door" low-cost shipping services using enclosed and open trailers.

We work with several shipping companies and are quite pleased to assist you in getting quotes and arranging pickup of the vehicle.  That said, any shipping contract is between you and the shipping company selected.  Car Connections USA, Inc and its employees, directors and managers bear no resposibility for delays in shipping, damage to or loss of the vehicle once it is in the shippers control or any other liability related to the shipment of your vehicle.  When the shipper picks the vehicle up at our facility, we will review the condition of the vehicle with the driver and will sign a Bill of Lading describing any deficiencies or cosmetic blemishes noted during our walkaround.  Many shippers try to protect their liability by marking the Bill of Lading as though the car has hundreds of imperfections.  We will not allow this to happen.  We encourage you to examine the vehicle closely upon its arrival and to take up any concerns about damage or cosmetic imperfections at the time of arrival BEFORE SIGNING THE BILL OF LADING.  Once you sign the Bill of Lading, the shipper is realeased from liability and you are on your own.  Should you find surprise damage and see that it is on the Bill of Lading, please contact us promptly and email us the Bill of Lading.  We will compare it to our copy and notify you of any discrepancies.  Some shippers damage a vehicle and simply document the damage on the Bill of Lading as though it existed at the time they picked it up.  We describe our vehicles and find it VERY unlikely that you would find a surprise upon arrival. 

About Us

Car Connections USA, Inc was founded in 2005 by Dave Coughlin. Car Connections USA, Inc was founded in an effort to fix much of what we believe is wrong with the car industry. Dave graduated from the Wharton School of Business at The University of Pennsylvania in 1996. After graduation, Dave spent 6 years working in Public Accounting and Consulting for PricewaterhouseCoopers,LLP.

 

A Word From Our Founder:

During my tenure at PwC, people would often ask me to help them find, buy or sell cars. It frustrated me to no end to have only limited ability to help people negotiate. Frankly, I was disgusted by the lack of knowledge and professionalism in the automobile industry. In 2002, I resigned my position with PwC to chase my dream in the automobile industry. I committed all of my resources to building an automobile business based upon knowledge, integrity and value.

Today, our Dealership provides these three factors to our clients. We offer you our knowledge at no cost. If you have a question about a car you own or are considering buying, we encourage you to contact us for advice. We offer integrity by giving honest advice and honest descriptions of the cars we sell. If you ask us to compare one of our cars and another one you’re considering, we will give you accurate data about both cars to help you decide upon the right one. Value is offered in our low prices. We sell our cars consistently for thousands below franchise dealer prices. How much are you willing to pay for marble floors and fancy showrooms? We operate on a low overhead model that enables us to sell cars with minimal markup.

We know your time is valuable and we appreciate your taking time to learn more about our organization. Please feel free to contact us with any questions you might have. We are looking forward to making your next car buying experience a positive one!
