BMW M3 (E90/E92/E93, 2008–2013) · 36 tracked auction sales, Jun 2023 – Jul 2026 · defaults to the 2-door coupe · seeded from Classic.com, BaT & Cars & Bids results

The target

2013 BMW M3 Coupe · Frozen Silver · Competition Package · 6-speed manual · carbon roof · BBS wheels
No factory edition car matches. The US Frozen Silver run ("M3 Competition Edition," MY2012) was 40 cars — every one DCT. A factory-manual edition car doesn't exist.
The manual exists via BMW Individual. At least one 2013 coupe was special-ordered in Individual Frozen Silver with 6MT + Competition Package (Doug DeMuro–reviewed; auctioned on Cars & Bids, June 2026). Watch for it to trade again.
Carbon roof: standard on every coupe unless the original buyer optioned the sunroof. All 40 Frozen Silver cars kept it.
ZCP + 6MT is a factory combination through 2013 ($2,500 option: style 359 wheels, −10 mm, EDC retune).
BBS = aftermarket on this chassis. The factory ZCP wheel is the 19" style 359; common BBS fitments are LM, LM-R, CH-R and E88.
Closest factory alternative: 2013 Frozen Limited Edition — 150 US cars in Frozen Red/White/Blue, ZCP and 6MT standard. Frozen Blue 6MT sold $69k (30k mi, Jun 2025).

725-mile 6MT ZCP · Plano, TX · Apr 2026

Trend: driver-grade cars roughly flat-to-up ~10% since 2023 (dip through mid-2025, recovering since). The collector tier is up sharply — Lime Rock Park went $100k (2024) → $200k (2026) and the E92 record reset to $205k.
