The 2001 - 2002 BMW M roadster reads like a BMW greatest hits list. The S54 motor from the E46 M3. Semi-trailing arm rear suspension from the E30. Sport steering wheel from the E39 M5. Gearbox and brakes from the E36 M3. Add in a 3.15 limited slip differential and the updated DSC from the E46. Deep dark shadowline refinished M roadster wheels, a lowered stance, and an M-specific body to complete the look. With 315 hp, and over 300 lbs less than the 2001 M3, this car likes to run. Check the period reviews to see what I mean. This car is by far the most fun vehicle I have ever owned, It has never let me down in a single occasion, going to work, cross country drives, you name it. It is (almost) as content to idle down the road as it is to hustle down a back road. Everything, the controls, are tight and responsive. It makes any drive fun, even a long one. Twice, after an 800 mile drive I felt great and stepped out with a smile on my face, turning back to look at the car as it ticked cool.The silver with the red interior is a very special combination. I love the car and have really enjoyed it. Its takes premium, obviously, but has always returned better than expected fuel economy. The reason I am selling is that I find myself driving more and I hate to put so many miles on such a special car. I have all the maintenance receipts from my work and the previous owner's work. The car has been recently gone over by Harrison Motorsports in GA. They specialize in BMWs, lookup the shop. I have always kept the car clean, washed, and waxed. Included in the sale is the soft-top cover for when the top is down and a custom car cover. The car has: ***Reinforced subframe Fresh front brakes Recent oil change Tires probably have ~80% left Upgraded speakers New rear window New alternator Cosmetic refresh Areas of attention: There are a few scratches and chips throughout the car. I have tried to touch these up on the hood as pictured The car will need rear brakes in 10,000 miles or so These cars are known for cracking rear subframes. This car had this issue and I repaired it at a cost over $4,000...with Randy Forbes' kit. The repair was professionally done by Harrison Motorsports. The car is much stiffer after the repair and this cracking will never be an issue again. The potential issue is S54 motor rod bearings. These usually fail at low mileage. The motor in this car is outside the motor recall dates. I have always taken great car of the car to warm the car up properly (oil and coolant up to temp) every time I take it out. Basically, this car is ready for you to drive it like you stole it! That's honestly it! I am a Mechanical Engineer by training and own five bicycles currently and I have had a few motorbikes in the past. I have been a perfectionist about everything mechanical I own and this car is no exceptions. The car (his name is Sterling by the way) has been my baby and I get teased over the amount I obsess over it I don't have to sell it by any means and it will upset me to do so, but I guess it is time for me to be a bit more practical...

So, how do you actually pronounce that automaker's name?
Thu, Jan 21 2016You probably have that friend who always says Porsche wrong, or maybe it's someone who keeps reminding you it's actually two syllables. Whichever side of the pronunciation debate you fall on, you'll find someone to root for in the video above. And before you ask, this was all the video team's idea. So don't get mad at me for being the voice of reason. BMW Chevrolet Hyundai Nissan Rolls-Royce Videos Original Video nissan qashqai
2015 BMW M3 Sedan, M4 Coupe are officially revealed [w/video]
Wed, 11 Dec 2013
The new 3.0-liter inline-six makes 425 turbocharged horsepower from 5500 rpm all the way up to 7300 rpm.
BMW has announced the 2015 M3 Sedan and M4 Coupe, high-performance versions of the new 3 Series and 4 Series that launched this year. The new Ms have stirred controversy in a variety of ways, but one must remember that the M cars traditionally don't follow a specific mold.
BMW to change model designations, further yet from actual displacement?
Sat, 12 Jul 2014Once upon a time, you could look at the back of a trunk lid of a BMW and come up with a pretty fair idea of what sat under its hood. For example, a 320i was a 3 Series with a fuel-injected, 2.0-liter engine, a 328i was a 3 Series with a fuel-injected, 2.8-liter engine and a 328Ci was a two-door 3 Series with the same engine. Those were good days.
Today, though, that simplicity is dead and gone. A 328i now has a 2.0-liter engine, just like the 320i, while the simple "C" designation that was affixed to two-door models has been replaced with a "4," so we have a 428i and a 435i. It gets worse, though. A 550i uses a 4.4-liter, twin-turbocharged V8 (it should be a 544ti, although we'd be willing to hear an argument for "tti") and a 740i uses a 3.0-liter, turbocharged six-cylinder, which is the same engine found in a 535i. It's madness.
And, well, it's about to get madder, if a post on a BMW enthusiast forum is to be believed. According to f30post.com, we could see a shakeup in at least the 3 and 4 Series nomenclature, thanks to an impending refresh that will see the addition of new, turbocharged four- and six-cylinder engines, codenamed B48 and B58, respectively.
