1988 Bmw M3 Base Coupe 2-door 2.3l on 2040-cars
Jamaica, New York, United States
Thank you for checking out my 1988 BMW E30 M3. The E30 M3 in my opinion is by far the best M3 ever made. This is a fine example of a mostly original M3 that has never been raced, mistreated or been in any accidents. Below I have made a brief outline of the condition.
EXTERIOR - The car was repainted by a reputable shop and is currently in excellent condition. It was just fully detailed and looks amazing. - Body is straight as can be. - Absolutely No Rust - Wheels are original and in very good condition. - Tires have about 60% tread left INTERIOR - The car has it's original tan interior. The interior is in excellent shape with no tears, marks, rips or excessive wear. To make it showroom the interior could be refinished but that's totally up to the new owner. - All gauges, lights, doors, windows and electrical is in good working order. - Odometer is accurate and is fully functional. MOTOR & TRANS - Original S14 Motor was just refreshed last year and has less than 200 miles on it. Parts replaced include JE pistons, timing chain, timing guide, head gasket set, oil pump, water pump, lower engine gasket set, intake air flow sensor, rod bearings and main bearings. Also the head was serviced and the valves were resealed. The block is now bored to fit the larger 94mm pistons. - Original Getrag 5 Speed transmission is in excellent shape and shifts smoothly. CHASSIS - Completely Rust Free. Absolutely Solid HIGHLIGHTS - No Accidents - Vin tags on every panel except passenger side front panel. Vin tags everywhere else including above the tool set and behind both the driver side and passenger side rear side markers. SUGGESTIONS - Suspension could use tightening. Drives fine but if you really want to let it rip you would benefit from having the suspension upgraded. - Interior is 100% original and hasn't been re-tinted. Depending on how original you'd like to stay you may or may not want to touch the interior. - Super Sprint exhaust is currently installed. You may want to go back to the original exhaust if you prefer. This is a 1988 E30 M3 and is eligible for historic registration. Please check with your local DMV for guidelines. I have tried to outline the car the best I could however I realize that you may have questions. Please ask as many questions as you'd like before bidding. As this is a classic I definitely recommend a PPI before purchase, this is an AS IS sale and all sales are final. You are more than welcome to setup a time with me to see it in person and take it for a test drive (deposit required before driving). ** Please note the Autocheck in not accurate, apparently there was some documentation confusion back in the late 90's. This is a no accident vehicle. The Carfax is 100% clean, feel free to run a report or email me for mine ** |

Road & Track names its 2013 Performance Car of the Year
Thu, 14 Nov 2013Road & Track recently staged its first annual Performance Car of the Year test, pitting 13 new and updated performance cars against each other on track, then graduating the top six to a road test before picking a winner. Additionally, the magazine staff picked the best automobiles of the year in eight categories.
But first, let's cover the PCotY segment. Here's the list of cars brought to the comparison test: Audi R8 V10 Plus; BMW 435i; BMW M6 Competition Package; Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Z51; Ferrari F12 Berlinetta; Ford Fiesta ST; Jaguar F-Type V8 S; Jaguar XFR-S; Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG S-Model Wagon; Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black Series; Mini John Cooper Works GP; Nissan GT-R Track Edition; and Porsche Cayman S.
To find out the results of the comparison, head over to Road & Track's website or check the press release below, where you'll also find the magazine's top-rated vehicles in eight categories. Want more? Head over to the 2013 PCotY hub. But before you do that, take a stab at guessing the winner of PCotY (we'll give you one hint: it isn't a Porsche).
VW Golf R pitted against BMW M235i in enthusiast's choice battle
Fri, 15 Aug 2014Most people don't have two, open spots in their garage to fit a practical daily driver and a fire-breathing performance car for the weekends. That's what makes vehicles like the latest Volkswagen Golf R and BMW M235i just about perfect for the average person. Both of these Germans can lope around as a commuter 90 percent of the time and be perfectly comfortable. However, when you want to walk in the door with a big smile on your face, you can take the back roads home and get a real thrill from them.
In his latest short video, Chris Harris from Drive tests these surprisingly comparable German performance cars. Both of them offer buyers in the neighborhood of 300 horsepower, with the BMW winning out with 320 hp. However, the Golf R gets standard all-wheel drive, which is now an option on the M235i. Harris has quite positive things to say about these Europeans, but you're going to have to watch the video to hear just what he thinks.
BMW i3 EV continues to shed camouflage
Thu, 11 Apr 2013As BMW gets closer to introducing the production version of its plug-in i3, we keep seeing the hatchback being tested with lessening degrees of design-obscuring camouflage. Last we heard, BMW is expecting to have the i3 ready by the end of this year, and the swirly, blue camo does little to hide its basic design in these latest spy shots.
We get our first clear look at almost everything above the wavy beltline including the silver roof edges and matching mirror caps, and it can't hide the dip in the beltline behind the B-pillar - matching what we've already seen on the i3 Coupe Concept unveiled at the LA Auto Show last year. Another change we notice is the lower portion of camo removed from the front fascia allowing us to see the air opening and the black, vertical inserts leading up to the fog light bezels. Judging by the "Hybrid Test Vehicle" stickers on the side of this prototype, we can only assume that this is the optional range-extended model.
