This M Roadster is one of 762 finished in Estoril Blue Metallic (335) over Black and Estoril Blue Nappa leather for the North American market for the model year.

Amenities include roll hoops, air conditioning, cruise control, carpeted floor mats, and a Harman Kardon sound system. A JVC CD stereo and trunk-mounted 12-disc CD changer have been installed. The hand brake return spring needs replaced and the rearview mirror is loose, per the seller. The driver seat shows wear and separation in the upholstery.
The M-branded leather-wrapped steering wheel features tri-color stitching and frames a tachometer with a 6,800-rpm redline, a 160-mph speedometer, and gauges for coolant temperature and fuel level. The digital odometer indicates 120k miles, approximately 3k of which were added under current ownership. The service engine soon light is illuminated which the seller states is due to time based oil service.

Power is sent to the rear wheels through a ZF five-speed manual transmission and a limited-slip differential.
