This M Roadster is in awesome shape.  Very Clean and Very RARE!  Imola Red is not easily found....especially in this shape!.  It was very well taken care of.  Never Winter driven.....Never Rain driven.....Never EVER saw salt on the road.  This car was always stored in September and taken out no earlier than mid June.  Regular oil changes.
All original except for 3 upgrades: New H&R springs, New Bilstein shocks and new Clutch Kit (clutch disk/pressure plate/release bearing) installed last year.  Front tires are very good with lots of tread.  Rear tires are warn to around a little more than half the tread.

I am the second owner.....The first owner accidently lost control and slightly damaged the front of the car.  He brought it back to the dealership to trade it in as this car was too powerful for him.  BMW repaired the slight damage which by law BMW dealership had to report.  They sold it to me as a Certified Series.  Usually if any BMW is involved in an accident, it automatically can never be sold as a Certified Series.  But because this car had very slight damage, BMW head office gave the OK to sell it as a Certified Series.
Anyone who wins this car will not be disappointed....it's in excellent shape and shows very well.......A Definite Head Turner!

2015 BMW Alpina B6 xDrive Gran Coupe priced from $118,225* [w/poll]

Wed, 05 Mar 2014

If you're in the market for a high-performance BMW and you live in Europe, you've typically had two range of options at your disposal: you could go for one of BMW's own M models, or turn to Alpina. Though technically independent of BMW, Alpina is about as close to the manufacturer as a tuner can get, and many of its models are offered through BMW's own dealer network.
That's overseas, but in the North American market, BMW has typically taken a different approach, offering just one Alpina model - the B7 - to fill in for a lack of M7 performance sedan. That all changes, however, with the debut of the BMW Alpina B6 xDrive Gran Coupe.
Slotting in alongside the M6 Gran Coupe, the Alpina B6 xDrive Gran Coupe is marginally more expensive and slightly less powerful, but makes up for those relative (and negligible) shortcomings in spades. Both are based on the 6 Series Gran Coupe and both pack a 4.4-liter twin-turbo V8, but with key differences. Where the M6 produces 560 horsepower, the Alpina offers 'only' 540. But where the M6 channels 500 pound-feet of torque to the rear wheels through a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission, the Alpina drives 540 lb-ft to all four wheels through an eight-speed automatic.

2015 BMW X3 gets a new nose, diesel power

Wed, 05 Mar 2014

The second-generation BMW X3 launched in late 2010, and while it's never really wowed us, it's still a solid offering in a highly competitive class. In an effort to keep things fresh, BMW has given its X3 a nip/tuck for the 2015 model year, but perhaps the biggest news (for the US market, anyway) involves what's found underhood.
In addition to the 2.0-liter turbo-four and 3.0-liter turbo-six, BMW will now offer an X3 xDrive28d, fitted with - you guessed it - the 2.0-liter turbodiesel inline four-cylinder engine found in the 328d sedan. Output for this engine is rated at 180 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque, and BMW says this oil-burning mill will help the X3 reach 60 miles per hour in just under eight seconds. The automaker hasn't released any information about real or predicted fuel economy figures for the diesel X3, as yet.
What's more, BMW will once again offer a two-wheel-drive X3 in the States - the sDrive28i. Pricing for the refreshed 2013 X3 starts at $39,325, not including $925 for destination. Opting for that diesel will set you back $42,825. Scroll down for the official press release, and check out a new brace of shots live from the soft-roader's Geneva Motor Show debut.
