2013 F30 328i M-Sport Black Sapphire For Sale

Hi guys,

Just letting you know that after 3 years 8 months of owning this beautiful F30 328i, I have decided to upgrade to something more "raw" and "untameable", so it is with regret that I have decided to put it up for sale. Link to the ad below:

https://www.carsales.com.au/private/...SSE-AD-4467324

I thought I'd post it here as the many readers here might appreciate the uniqueness of this build more than most mainstream buyers.

The car is completely immaculate inside and outside - taken extra care of the interior leather to make sure it looks brand new and of course the paintwork is flawless. Always followed the correct washing techniques, coated with Cquartz inside and out, very rarely go out in the rain. A weekend car as I also had a Golf which took the brunt of daily driving to work. Loved this car to bits and treated it as such - got a reputation in my circle (even among car enthusiast friends) as that dude that's ridiculously fussy about this car.

I custom ordered the car with lots of extra options including the less optioned "M Adaptive Dampers". You can find all the juicy details on Carsales. Please feel free to show some support and PM / SMS / Call if you're interested.

The price is very competitive for the condition and spec of the car so won't be moving much on it - if you know this car you'd probably agree.

Very nice car....that cream leather interior looks classy, especially against the black duco.

What are you moving to?

Thank BaxterF30, I opted for the F80 M3. Familiar yet completely different once you sit in the seat and start the engine.

Wow, beautiful car...good luck with the sale.

That's a big jump from the 328 to the M3! Keep us updated on how you go with the transition. (Despite what people might say, every 328i owner is an M3 owner-in-waiting )

"Despite what people might say, every 328i owner is an M3 owner-in-waiting"

True that!! Think of the 328i/428i/330i/430i as the trainer car for the M3/M4 but in reality the F80/82 are a completely different beast. I find that I will need a few proper cruises to test its (road safe) limits and improve my driving skills to make use of the extra capabilities.

Great car. All credit to the owner. It is a shame most people don't bother to look after their cars like this or somewhere in the vicinity of this standard.

Thanks CAM7777. Well I figured that if I'm going to spend more than average on a car (i'm usually fairly frugal in life), I might as well maintain it to "brand new" status - so every time I see it or get in, it's as if i'm driving a brand new car and get the most out of the ownership experience.

I know the feeling Aside from the new car feel, ppl who see the car keeps commenting is it new?

Yeah thanks. Well it's a weekend car with no pets or children yet. I got this special coating applied to keep stains and dye transfer away. Plus I used white towels on the front seats as an extra precaution although that always gets laughs. I avoid wearing dark jeans and keep the car clean whenever I spot something!

So yeah.. all normal car care habits!

I'm in the market for a pre-owned F30 328i M-Sport and this looks far and above any vehicle I've inspected so far - both private and at the dealer! Unfortunately my budget doesn't extend quite that high - but best of luck with the sale.

I already purchased the new one back in Jan!

Mineral white on black - went with the complete opposite haha. Might go back to Black on White someday perhaps with an M6!
