2004 BMW 330ci For Sale

Congratulations! You are one step closer to owning this phenomenal BMW.  I hope that this blog will answer all of your questions, but if you do require more information please feel free to contact me at mgb550@gmail.com or 253-569-8877.

This is a 2004 BMW 330ci.  I am the 2nd owner and I bought it from BMW of Bellevue in August of 2010 with 58,000 miles.  The car has been maintained by BMW of Bellevue.  The front brake pads and rotors were replaced last year, along with an AC system recharge and a transmission software update.

Below you will find a variety of pictures of the car both interior and exterior and a more detailed explanation of the car, its condition and options.

This car is painted in BMW's most popular color, Titanium Silver and the paint is in beautiful shape. It has also had an aftermarket professional tint done on all the windows, darker on the back three windows.  Keeps the car nice and cool in the summer and protects the leather from drying out and cracking.








Adaptive Xenon Headlights, one of the best options you can have on a car.  You can see twice as far and 5 times better than conventional headlights.  Retractable headlight washers.

BMW 18" M-sport double spoke alloy wheels.  A rare option on most E46 models.

LED Tail Lights.  Much brighter than conventional tail lights making for safer stopping,

BMW factory tool set: tow hook, lug nut wrench, adjustable pliers, screw driver, etc.

BMW factory installed 6 disc changer, with single disc player at head unit.  Changer can be disconnected and replaced with iPod connector.

For the E46 body style they moved the rear seat fold down latches from inside the car to the trunk for easier access (top left and right of picture).  A ski bag is also included in the rear seat allowing skis to pass through the middle of the rear seat without worry of tearing the leather or having to fold the seat down.

The bullet proof, time tested inline 6 cylinder.  3.0 liters, 225 hp @ 5900 rpm and 214 lb-ft @ 3500 rpm.  BMW has used this engine in various sizes since the 1980's and is the smoothest engine on the planet.

Finished in the most desirable color, Ebony with Myrtle Wood trim.  Leather wrapped steering wheel with mounted controls: stereo volume, seek/scan, track up & down, cruise control.

The back seat is in perfect condition, being a 2 door it doesn't get many visitors but the leg room is accommodating to adults.

An option well worth the money is the Harmon Kardon stereo system, including 8 speakers and an amplifier.

Fuel, Speedometer, Tachometer, Water Temp and Instant Fuel Economy, bathed in an amber back light for "easy on the eyes" viewing for night time driving.

Driver information center: Mileage, Trip, Outside Temp, Avg Economy, Avg. Speed, Time, Distance to Empty.

Automatic climate control. A/C blows ice cold and the heater heats things up quickly.  All of the pixels work on the display which has been a common problem in BMW's for years.

AM/FM/CD (single and 6 disc/iPod).  All of the pixels work on the display.

Heated seats, HiFi Stereo boost, Dynamic Stability Control (DSC)/Dynamic Traction Control (DTC).  5 spd Automatic transmission with intuitive Sport Shift for those days you feel like Michael Schumacher. Power windows and power rear window vents.

Drivers bolster shows very little to no sign of wear and is conditioned often.

Power Moon Roof with tilt and slide, with black out shade.

Power Drivers seat has 3 memory settings which control seat and wing mirror settings.  Seat also has power lumbar support.

Passenger seat bolster looks like new and seat is conditioned often.

Power Passenger seat with Power Lumbar support

Owners Manual, Service and Warranty Information, Window Sticker, Dealer Directory, etc.
