Yahoo Autos Looking for a Brand-New Sports Car? How About This 100-Mile 1995 BMW M3 Lightweight
The BMW M3 Lightweight is a rare bird here in the U.S., with only 60 of the track-focused E36s having made their way to the States. Over the years they've become a full-fledged collectable for M car fans, and this one is no exception. This Lightweight only has 100 miles from new, and after 20 years in collector's hands, it's for sale on–where else?–Bring a Trailer.
Besides the cool name and sweet checkered flag graphics, the M3 Lightweight came complete with a host of different weight-saving features meant to shed time on the track. Reduced sound-deadening, forged alloy wheels, aluminum door skins, carbon fiber trim, a radio delete, and a sunroof delete were all standard on the Lightweight, resulting in 200 pounds less heft than its standard M3 sibling.
Additionally, the Lightweight got a special aero package, a shorter final gear ratio, and an engine hand-picked off the production line for maximum performance.
Unsurprisingly, 22 years of sitting around in a collector garage means this M3 is in near-perfect condition, with all of its original trim and accessories intact and accounted for. You can find it here up for auction with seven days remaining.
Still not convinced? Just look at these seats, they'll change your mind for sure.
