Hey guys,

I'm going a lil off topic here, but I was wondering about one idea I have in the back of my head and would really appreciate your opinion on this.
Since I'm a noob, I can't yet create a new thread to expose this idea and I have decided to say it in here since it's somewhat related (in a way).

Anywho, I'm a big fan of the M coupe and think of buying one in the (hopefully, near) future. Thus, I'm constantly browsing this forum, AutoTrader, Kijiji and eBay Motors for M coupes for sale around the Toronto area (+250km).

I've been thinking of creating a thread monitoring the market and letting you all know what M coupes are out there. (something like the Coupe Cartel for the E36/8)

Maybe some of you (interested in either an upgrade to a Coupe from a Roadster or to a better color combo?!) or someone like me (who really wants one badly enough to register and get as much info as possible) might find this information useful.

What do you say? Does this sound like a good idea to you?

Thanks for your feedback

I agree that most M coupes in the GTA are brought from the US, but I've seen a few Canadian spec ones as well.
I was interested in buying an M coupe last summer (but having a baby became the priority) and have seen 5 and actually test drove 3 of them.

I've seen the first ever (2006, of course) Sepang Bronze Metallic / Dark Sepang Bronze leather (LL93061, 1 of 4) with 46k km, owned by a fine gentleman that moved on to a Subie WRX STI. Don't know if he sold it. He was looking for $36k at that time.

Missed by 1 day a 2008 Canadian Interlagos / Light Sepang Extended (LM08675, 1 of 1) with 12k km, was for sale by Grand Touring Autos for $32k...

Have seen a 2007 Black/Black with the CF-look leather trim, with 25k km, was for sale by Autobahn Pre-Owned for $34k...

There's a 2006 Canadian Monaco / Light Sepang (LL93204, 1 of 1) for sale right now in Oakville, with 36k km and the seller wants $32k, which is a good deal considering the rarity and mileage.

I also happen to have a neighbor that lives around the High Park area and he has a Silver M coupe with some "interesting" blue wheels.

So I've seen my fair share of M coupes... I'd say we have between 30-50 in the GTA alone.

excellent!
You must be on full alert to see that many

i'm fairly certain that the Sepang went back to the US.
Someone on Zpost bought it.

I prefer mine stiffer... the car, I mean!

wow, that is very low mileage and considering the rarity of 2006 Canadian SB (1 of 5), it's a very good buy!
Wish I were in the market right now... have a baby on the way and looking at buying a house right now...

I'll probably buy mine sometime in spring-summer next year.
If you'll still have it at that time, we'd def talk!

If memory serves me there were ~ 190 made for the Canadian Market. There were 4 cars on the first rail can brought into the Vaughan yard June 30th 2006. Mine was the first registered Customer Canadian car LL93158 (yes we went down and took it directly from the yard). There were 3-4 Corporate cars on the streets about a month earlier. In fact mine was the first ordered for a Customer. Didn't even have a full options sheet. Just a fax and $2,000 with a couple of stipulations.

Hey Caddyshk,
Nice to meet a Coupe fanatic!

As far as I know there were 187 Canadian spec M Coupes, but I may be wrong... it wouldn't be the first time!

In regards to the first ever, I might have not been quite clear. I was actually referring to the first ever SB/DSB... it wasn't even a Canadian car.

I just love this color combo and was ecstatic to see the first ever SB/DSB.

Anyway, hope to meet you (and check your M Coupe) at Mike's detailing meet or at Tedfest.

Yes - 187 is the number. I knew there was not a Shitbrown on that first shipment so I thought it could have been a Corporate car with that VIN number; however not likely because BMW was really trying to get the WOW factor with the kickoff. The first Coupe I saw in person was on May 24 at Parkview BMW at a M roadshow event, Imola - happened to be the same day mine came off the line.

Looking forward to meeting you!

I just realize I may have spotted you way back in the day.

It was the summer, I was driving westbound on sheppard approaching bayview in a silver 350Z with gun metal rims
A sepang Mcoupe was driving eastbound on sheppard away from bayview

I gave the driver a thumbs up and said "nice car" and he was gracious enough to return the compliment.

Was that you?
