2009 BMW 135i Coupe(300hp) with a 6 speed manual transmission finished in Monaco Blue Metallic with a Taupe Boston Leather interior. Vehicle was special ordered from the factory in February 2009 and was delivered in May 2009 to be my daily driver. I was so pleased with its performance that I decided to make a couple of upgrades and try it out at the track for High Performance Drivers Education(HPDE) events with the BMW CCA and SCCA. The car was fitted with a Dinan Stage 3 Suspension Package (Shocks, Struts, Springs, Front and Rear Sway Bars, and Camber Plates) on July 5, 2010 by AtSpeed Motorsports in Hanover, Maryland. At that time a Dinan High Performance Oil Cooler was also installed for a total of $7,169.23 in Dinan parts and labor. I took the car to Virginia International Raceway (VIR) for one event with the Tarheel Chapter of the BMW CCA in October of 2011 where it performed extremely well. The vehicle has been cared for by AtSpeed Motorsports in Hanover, Maryland and at Russel BMW in Baltimore, Maryland. It is comfortable, quick, nimble and fun to drive on the street or the track. Due to my limited garage space and time, my father is housing the vehicle in South Carolina, and has listed it on my behalf. I will be fielding all questions and inquiries on the vehicle, and he will facilitate any local showings of the car. The packages and features on the car are as follows: Cold Weather Package - Ski Bag - Heated Front Seats Premium Package - Universal Garage Door Opener - Digital Compass Mirror - Auto-dimming mirror - Auto-dimming rearview mirror - Power Front Seats - Lumbar Support - BMW Assist Sport Package - Sport seats - M steering wheel - Shadowline trim Multi-function steering wheel Gray Poplar wood trim Moonroof Retractable headlight washers Rain sensor and auto headlights Xenon headlights Adaptive light control Automatic Air Conditioning Cruise Control iPod and USB adaptor w/cord Dinan Upgrades: D570-0820 Dinan Oil Cooler D140-0946 Koni/Dinan Adjustable Rear Shocks D140-0943 Koni/Dinan Left Strut D140-0943 Koni/Dinan Right Strut D120-05040 Dinan Front Sway Bar 26.5mm D120-0507 Dinan Rear Sway Bar 15.8mm D160-0004 Camber Plate Kit D100-0900 Dinan Performance Spring Set The car has a valid Tire and Wheel Protection Package, purchased through the BMW Dealer, which provides coverage through February 25, 2015 and will transfer with the vehicle.

Car and Driver lists 10Best for 2013, same as it ever was
Wed, 05 Dec 2012Forgive us for having the distinct feeling of déjà vu, but it certainly feels like we've been here before. By that we are referring Car and Driver and the announcement of its annual 10Best vehicles for 2013. To be sure, it's an impressive selection of cars that combine heart-pounding performance and frugal sensibilities, but it also represents something of a broken record on the part of C/D. We're not so sure that's a flaw, though, as the resulting list is tough to argue with.
Vehicles like the Ford Mustang, Porsche Boxster, and BMW 3 Series have maintained their high-horsepower spots on this list for several years now. Even on the more practical and nimble end, the Honda Accord, Honda Fit and Mazda Miata have not budged. These continued spots are even in light of redesigns for some vehicles such as the Accord, Boxster and 3 Series.
In fact, the only newcomer to the 10Best list this year are the Scion FR-S/Subaru BRZ twins, which knocked out the Cadillac CTS-V. We think it would have been a huge misstep to have excluded the FR-S/BRZ, even in light of the supercharged Caddy's lamentable departure from 10Best.
Lexus NX, BMW i3 to get Super Bowl commercials
Mon, Jan 19 2015At this point last year, we'd been getting news on automotive-focused Super Bowl commercials for more than two months. The teasers hadn't come out yet, but manufacturers lined up for the super-expensive spots were making their intentions known. This year? Almost nada, until this week. BMW has said it will air a 60-second spot promoting the i3 during the first quarter of the game, the Munich firm returning to The Big Game after a four-year absence. BMW says, "Big ideas like the BMW i3 take a little getting used to, and the creative idea surrounding our spot will play on this analogy." We say that pitching a tiny range-extended hatchback during the beer-iest American sports orgy of the year should make for some neat commentary afterward. Lexus is putting its new NX crossover in the second Super Bowl commercial it's ever aired, eschewing the glitter of celebrities and glamor for a straight-shooting spot and the tagline, "Be seen, be heard, make some noise." Joining those two are Kia, Mercedes-Benz, Nissan and Toyota. The six confirmed carmakers are down from eleven last year, when car spots made up a quarter of the total ad time. The price to do business for 30 seconds this year: reportedly around $4.5 million, up a stacks from last year's $4 million. You can watch the Lexus commercial in the video above, and beneath that, the BMW press release below has a bit more information on its effort. BMW to Advertise All-Electric BMW i3 during Super Bowl XLIX. The all-electric BMW i3 is featured in a 60-second spot during Super Bowl XLIX on Sunday, February 1, 2015. Woodcliff Lake, NJ – January 15, 2015... Today, BMW announced plans to feature the all-electric BMW i3 in a 60-second spot during Super Bowl XLIX on Sunday, February 1, 2015. After a 4-year hiatus, BMW will be returning to the big game with a commercial during the first quarter. "As one in three Americans will tune in to watch the Super Bowl, we are thrilled to use this platform to educate viewers on the importance of electric mobility," said Trudy Hardy, Vice President of Marketing, BMW of North America. "Big ideas like the BMW i3 take a little getting used to, and the creative idea surrounding our spot will play on this analogy." BMW i is BMW's forward-looking and sustainable brand dedicated to solving many of the mobility challenges faced by the world's most densely populated cities. The BMW i3 is the first of the BMW i vehicles constructed from the ground up primarily of carbon fiber.
Chairman says BMW will make 100,000 electric vehicles a year by 2020
Wed, Mar 19 2014We know demand for the BMW i3 has been high, both in the US and Europe. It appears that BMW's crystal ball is showing a steady increase in interest between now and 2020. By that year, according to Norbert Reithofer, chairman of the board of management for BMW AG, the company expects to build 100,000 units a year. That's not quite as EVs many as Tesla is talking about for 2020 (500,000), but it would represent quite an increase from the roughly 20,000 units that the best-selling plug-in vehicles moved in 2013. Reithofer told Automotive News that plug-in vehicle production would steadily increase by 2018 before hitting full stride at the end of the decade. He also made sure to clarify that there was external pressure to make 100,000 EVs a year: "we will be forced to build them in a six digits figure to comply with stricter emission rules." The plug-in electric vehicles are just one part of BMW's effort to reduce emissions. In prepared remarks delivered at the company's annual accounts press conference (available in full below), Reithofer said, "Customer demand [for i3] is exceeding our expectations. ... We believe the electric motor is a future technology for zero-emission driving in urban areas. Battery technology will continue to progress. ... When it comes to emission-free long-distance driving, however, electric cars featuring hydrogen fuel cell technology offer great potential." He didn't say how many fuel cell cars BMW expects to make and sell in 2020, but BMW's collaboration with Daimler and Renault-Nissan is supposed to launch the "world's first affordable, mass-market fuel cell electric vehicles as early as 2017." Statement and presentation by Dr. Norbert Reithofer, Chairman of the Board of Management of BMW AG, Annual Accounts Press Conference 2014 19.03.2014 Good morning, Ladies and Gentlemen! The core task of a company is to safeguard its future. This means we must ensure that our products and services are always inspiring our customers. We need to think ahead and continually take our business model to the next level. We also have to remain profitable so we can invest and bring new ideas to life. Our ambition of the BMW Group is: Always to consider the long term in all our planning, to follow our own path successfully, and to be a pioneer in our industry. Our business model is clear: Individual mobility in the premium segment.
