2006 Bmw Z4 M Roadster Convertible 2-door 3.2l In Pristine Condition on 2040-cars
Sandy, Utah, United States
Since you are searching for M Roadsters on Ebay, I assume you are aware of this vehicle's pedigree--its famous 330 horsepower 3.2L acceleration, its short-shift six-speed transmission, its razor-sharp suspension, its throaty purr or it's terrifyingly effective 4-wheel slotted disc brakes. I won't bore you by detailing the car's specifications because you already know this car and you know what you want. You want the pure joy of a premium open-air wind-in-your-face thrill ride on wheels, and you have many roadsters to choose from. I won't badmouth somebody else's vehicle here--these roadsters are incredibly well built machines and you would likely be thrilled with any one of them. Still, you have to ask yourself; Which one do I choose? I am a car nut. In the last 10 years I have owned a 2002 Mini S, a 2005 Honda S2000, a 2006 Nissan 350Z, a 2002 M Roadster (the Z3 body) and a 1984 Porsche 911 whale tail, all of them exceptional in their own way and every one of them in terrific condition. None of them, however, were as quick, better looking, powerful, cleaner or refined as this 2006 M Roadster. I searched for more than a year before I found this one, and I bought it after considering several other M's. I bought it because I am faastidious about vehicle condition, and that is the only reason you will buy my car instead of somebody else's. The paint is nearly flawless; there are no dents or dings on the car. There are no scuffs beneath the front spoiler or cracks in the underbody ABS. The 19" wheels and tires have less than 800 miles on them and are in absolutely perfect condition. (Two of the previous smaller wheels had minor curb rash, so I replaced all of them). I also added two billet spacers to the rear wheels, offsetting them by approximately 1 3/4 inches. The spacers reduce oversteer, but I am more impressed with how they shape the back end. There isn't a single chip, crack or discoloration in any of the original windows. There are no tears, thinning or discolorations in the interior leather, including the thick leather steering wheel, heavily bolstered seats or shifter. No one has smoked in this car. I encourage (and expect) you to walk or crawl around the car until you find the slightest blemish in the paint. You will, eventually, because it's a used car, but it is as close to showroom condition as any car being offered for sale on this site or any other. Every switch, dial, knob or control works perfectly. There are zero hidden defects. Full disclosure: Since I have owned the vehicle (one year), I have put less than 2,000 miles on it. Still, I have replaced the engine oil twice, I have replaced the stainless steel head bolt caps (they were faded in color), I have replaced the gas tank leak detection pump, purchased the wheels, tires and spacers, had the car safety checked/emissions tested and purchased a new 960 amp battery (because the original battery was 8 years old) and purchased a car cover. The roadster is garaged and covered. The people at Kelly Blue Book claim that a 2006 M Roadster like mine--with 25,000 miles in excellent condition with every conceivable option--is worth $31,730, and that price does NOT include what I paid for the wheels, tires and spacers. I will use the KBB price as my "Buy it Now" price but I will consider lesser offers. Please bid with confidence. I love talking cars, so please feel free to call, text or email me with your questions about my roadster. Depending on your location, I may be able to deliver the car. Mike 801.891.1938 |

2014 Dinan S1 BMW M5
Thu, 04 Sep 2014The last time the Dinan name graced the pages of Autoblog, Michael Harley was waxing poetic about the S3-R BMW 1M Coupe, a car that still stands in his ranks as one of the best cars he's ever driven. And that wasn't just because it was, you know, amazing. It's because as far as tuners go, Dinan produces some seriously well-executed products. Harley said of the 1M, for example, "It was so fully formed and well-rounded that it felt like BMW itself had made it."
Eager to sample some of these wholly wonderful wares, I cleared a few hours in my Monterey Car Week schedule and booked a date with the S1 M5 you see here - the (current) daily driver of Mr. Steve Dinan, himself. But unlike the S3-R 1M the company tuned previously, the donor car in question here is vastly different and, if I'm honest, not as good. See, I adore the stock 1M in a way words cannot express, but the standard-issue M5... good as it is, there are indeed a few flaws.
But after driving the Dinan S1 M5 around the Monterey Peninsula, I can confirm two things. First, Harley's conclusion that Dinan builds products that feel 100 percent BMW-spec is absolutely true. And second, Steve and the gang haven't just created a tuned M5, they've built a better one.
BMW i3 to be priced around $40,000
Mon, 06 May 2013According to Automotive News, the BMW i3 electric hatchback will likely be priced around $40,000, or similar to that of a well-equipped 3 Series sedan, when it goes on sale later this year. This information was revealed during an interview where AN spoke to Ludwig Willisch, CEO of BMW North America. The i3 will likely qualify for a $7,500 tax credit from the US federal government, though AN reports that a BMW spokesperson could not confirm this just yet.
In addition to the all-electric i3, BMW will offer a range-extended version that uses a 0.65-liter two-cylinder motorcycle engine and auxiliary generator to charge the car's battery on the go. Automotive News says pricing for this model is still unclear, as is whether or not the range-extended i3 will be eligible for the $7,500 tax credit. Of course, buyers needing a vehicle for longer trips will be able to borrow one from the automaker.
Automotive News also reports that the majority of BMW's 338 dealers in the United States will be able to sell the i3, as well as the upcoming i8 hybrid sports car. Dealerships have until June of this year to opt out of this program, however.
Old vs. new debate gets new life with $25,000 Fiesta ST vs. E46 M3 showdown
Fri, 10 Jan 2014You know who you are. There's probably a few of you reading; the ones that say, "Why would I spend $27,000 on a new Mazda MX-5 when I could get a used Chevrolet Corvette with more power." Yes, we're talking to you, used car proponents. While it is a fair argument, it's not like used cars don't come with drawbacks of their own, though.
In an attempt to put this new-versus-used argument to bed once and for all, Matt Farah of the The Smoking Tire has picked up a pair of $25,000 cars - a used, but lightly modified, 2003 BMW M3 and a 2013 Ford Fiesta ST. Naturally, there's a comparison.
Farah, as he's wont to do, does get into the nitty gritty of what each car is like to drive, and discusses the merits of used and new-car shopping. But as he rightly points out while testing the M3, "So, it is a good car. But like any used car, it really does depend on the individual car."
