If you are a serious enthusiast or collector looking for an immaculate example of the best M Roadster "S54", then you have found it! You probably know more about this car than I do and certainly more than I can put into this listing.

If you are not familiar with the BMW "S54" M Roadster (produced only in 2001-2002) and are interested in learning more about the history and the vehicle, then I suggest using google to search the forums and/or articles available on the internet. Links are not allowed in ebay listings.

I purchased this particular car in May of 2012 as a second car and investment with only 11k miles. I believe that I am the 2nd owner. The car is completely stock, and the only thing of significance that I did was change the tires and put 3k miles on the car since my ownership. As the previous owner, I always kept the car garaged.

Mechanically, the car is 100% and there are no mechanical defects that I am aware of in ANY of the functions, including stereo, air conditioning, retractable top, etc. Cosmetically, the car is 99%+, no rim dings, but there may be some road rash and the typical front spoiler scrapes on the underneath. Inevitable when driving these lovely Los Angeles roads...

Reason for selling: we need room for another car in the garage. Teenagers, sheesh!

Please ask all pertinent questions prior to bidding. I am available to show the car with prior arrangements and reserve the right to sell the car prior to the end of the auction, although I am inclined to let the auction run its course. I can be reached at 310-545-7548.

By placing a bid, the bidder agrees to make immediate contact via email, send a $500 deposit using paypal within 24 hours and the balance within 7 business days using certified funds. Shipping must be arranged by the buyer at their own expense.

Audi tops BMW and Mercedes in luxury sales

Tue, May 12 2015

April was a good month for Audi, as the four-ring automaker beat out both Mercedes-Benz and BMW in sales. Bloomberg reports that it was America's appetite for CUVs like the Q5 and ancient Q7 that helped Audi move nearly 153,000 units around the globe. It's not all good news, though. Audi's worldwide sales only jumped by 2.5 percent, compared to BMW and Mercedes, whose sales increased 5.6 and 11 percent, respectively. On top of that, BMW is still the best-selling brand (of the three, anyway) so far in 2015, outselling Audi by roughly 9,000 units and Mercedes by about 23,000 vehicles. Considering the faster growth of its rivals, it's unclear if Audi will be able to hang onto the monthly sales crown beyond April, or if BMW will continue its reign as the world's biggest luxury automaker.

VW could look outside its own ranks for next CEO

Fri, Feb 27 2015

Companies have two options when coming up with succession plans – hire within, or go outside its ranks. Either choice comes with advantages and disadvantages, to be sure. Hiring within means generally getting someone familiar with the company and its culture and traditions, while going outside is ideal if you're looking to shake things up and bring in fresh ideas. It's unclear which avenue the Volkswagen Group will go down when it comes time to replace its head man, Herr Professor Doctor Doctor Herr Martin Winterkorn, but he isn't ruling out a trip outside of Wolfsburg. Winterkorn has already given the reins of the VW brand to former BMW board member Herbert Diess, while Andreas Renschler, a former Daimler board member, is heading up VW's truck group. Now, Winterkorn has made some statements to a German weekly that indicate the most important thing about his successor isn't necessarily his (or her, though no women appear to be on the short-list) previous employer, Motoring.com.au is reporting, so much as his qualities as a leader and an engineering background. "A Volkswagen boss has to have a big affinity to our products. He needs to be close to customers and he needs to have a relationship with dealers," Winterkorn told Stern. "Like always, it depends on the personality and it also helps if the candidate is an engineer." Motoring throws out a couple of potential candidates from within, including Porsche boss Mathias Muller, Audi Chairman Rupert Stadler and engineering guru Ulrich Hackenberg, in addition to both Diess and Renschler. And while each candidate has a lot of potential, the only thing that's guaranteed right now is what Winterkorn has already said: "The decision about who will succeed me is not an easy one for the supervisory board."

TRANSLOGIC 147: CES 2014 Autonomous Vehicles

Wed, Jan 15 2014

We head back to CES in Las Vegas to check on the progress of autonomous vehicles in 2014. We go hands-free on the highway with Audi, narrowly avoid a collision with Ford and hear all about BMW's drifting driverless car. But first we take a ride on Induct's self-driving Navia shuttle.
