Reviewing the auction results and market data for North American S52-powered M Coupes, we see that high-mileage examples (38k– 83k miles) in good and original but not perfect condition trade between $28,500–$45,000. S54 cars (2001–2002) command a premium, sometimes $70,000+, but are not directly comparable. None of the recent auction results provided are for a car as low mileage, rare, or well- preserved as this example. Given this car’s unusual 11,000-mile odometer reading, fully stock configuration, clean ownership, and rare color/options (non-sunroof/Cosmos Black/Dark Beige Oregon), it legitimately commands a spot at the very top of the S52 market, just shy of concours. In today’s market, this specific example would rightfully achieve $63,000–$68,000 on the enthusiast-driven auction platforms—above any of the provided S52 comps, but just below #1 concours pricing, mainly due to aged tires and a few minor presentable blemishes.
