1997 BMW M3 Sedan – 1 of 13 | Hellrot Red over Modena, 5-Speed Manual
This 1997 BMW M3 Sedan is a rare and highly desirable E36, finished in Hellrot Red over Modena leather and equipped with a 5-speed manual transmission. A single-owner car from new, it has been carefully maintained throughout its life and remains completely original aside from upgraded brakes and the AC Schnitzer rear wing that has been on the car since purchase. Power comes from BMW’s 3.2L inline-six (S52) producing 240 horsepower and 236 lb-ft of torque, paired with a 5-speed manual gearbox and rear-wheel drive. Known for its balance and precision, the E36 M3 delivers a responsive and engaging driving experience that made it a benchmark sports sedan of the 1990s. The cabin is trimmed in Modena leather, presenting cleanly and complementing the bold Hellrot exterior. All systems function as they should, and the car has been thoroughly inspected inside and out to ensure strong mechanical health. One of only 4,574 manual-transmission M3 sedans produced for North America between 1996 and 1998, just 314 were finished in Hellrot Red—and only 13 combined with a Modena interior. This example is one of those 13, making it a truly unique and collectible BMW M3 sedan.
