The time has come to part ways with my Avus M3. I have always wanted one of these and found this one just over a year ago. The only reason I am selling is that I have a company car and this one unfortunately just sits in the garage. I have 5 cars in my driveway, a camper and a trailer. I just don’t need it sitting anymore and want to stop hearing my wife ask “Why do you have that car?” I am a BMW nut, have had over 14 and will never sell my ’76 2002. While this car is not a cream puff by any means, it has a lot of good points and is a lot of fun to drive. I wanted a car I wouldn’t be scared to daily drive to work, and did that until I was offered my company car.


The Good:

Clean TN title

Sunroof works smoothly in both tilt and all the way open

Windows that auto adjust when you open/close the doors works

A/C blows cold

Alpine CD player Rear speakers have been upgraded to 6x9s with aftermarket adapter plate.

Previous owner installed staggered M Contour wheels in 7.5s front and 8.5s rear

New Headliner

Rear 3.15 differential was replaced with a smoother 3.23 unit out of a later model E36 M3 - new Mobil 1 fluid was installed.

Parts replaced in the last year:

Front struts were replaced with brand new Koni Sports

Rear shocks were replaced with brand new Koni Sports

New RTAB bushings were installed along with UUC limiters

UUC Tuned Sport springs were installed. These are comparable to H&R Sports in stance and ride

New tie rods

Lower cross brace from a Z3 was installed

New rear shock mounts with upper shock reinforcements installed

New upper strut mount rubber

New front sway bar links

New Clutch pedal with UUC anti-squeak/rattle clutch pedal bushings.

New thermostat and water pump installed with metal blade. Metal thermostat housing installed.

Kadunza Motorsport custom engraved valve cover with ///M logo and then powdercoated by Renewed Finishes. This is a thing of beauty and dresses up the engine bay nicely. New valve cover gasket installed at time of installation.

New coolant expansion tank

New clutch arm

New UUC clutch arm bushings

New radiator hoses

New cabin filter

New reverse light switch

New M3 bumper lip

Regular Mobil 1 oil and filter changes

Michelin Pilot Sports front and rear. Fronts are 225/45ZR17 and rears are 245/40ZR17. Tires are still good, however the car has been sitting for a few months and need to be driven. If anything, these will need to be replaced somewhat soon. The rears have the typical lowered BMW edges wearing.


The bad:

No fog lights included. I was going to make fog light delete covers, but never got around to it. Fog light wiring is still there and switch on dash works.

Car does have 1 accident in the rear from its past. Rear was repaired well and it is hard to detect.

*****Read the following paragraph as I am fully disclosing everything about the car...

CAR DOES HAVE HAIL DAMAGE on hood, roof/sunroof and trunk lid. From 10’ away you wouldn’t see it and the paint shines up nicely. Up close you can definitely see the dings. The rest of this car is so clean, I didn’t let it bother me. A lot of the dings could be cleared up with PDR, or just do like I did and not even notice it from the driver’s seat! I tried to take photos of this but with the glare and shine it is hard to notice. I will try to add more photos later.

BMW launches new M Performance accessories for M5, M6

Wed, 16 Oct 2013

Those looking to make their stock BMW look like an M model might be interested in an M Sport package. But those who already drive an M model and want that extra bit of attitude to take it over the top look towards the M Performance Accessories catalog, to which BMW has just added a new range of add-ons for the M5 and M6.
The new range of accessories include a titanium exhaust from Akrapovic that's 22 pounds lighter and an extra bit throatier than the stock unit. BMW's also offering a carbon-ceramic brake kit and 20-inch alloys to accommodate them, as well as a carbon aero kit, carbon interior trim and those trademark stripes for the truly extroverted BMW performance enthusiast.
You can check them out in the gallery above and the press release below to see what Martin Tomzczk, the DTM driver sponsored by BMW M Performance Accessories, chose for his matte black M6 Gran Coupe daily driver.

BMW announces M235i xDrive, 7 Series Exclusive among summer upgrades

Tue, 13 May 2014

Like any automaker worth its lug-nuts, BMW is constantly striving to improve its products. And so it has announced a series of upgrades for the summer - none of them revolutionary, but a couple of them notable.
For one, the Bavarian automaker has announced that is is offering xDrive traction on the M235i coupe, a model that has been available until now only in rear-drive configuration. The all-wheel drive version comes with the same 3.0-liter twin-turbo inline-six with 326 horsepower (320 in the US market) and eight-speed automatic transmission as the rear-drive version, but now channels that power to all four wheels for a 0-62 time quoted at 4.6 seconds - two little ticks quicker than the existing version. It's the first time that all-wheel drive is being offered on the 2 Series, and will also be fitted on the convertible - at least, that is, in Europe. We're waiting on confirmation of North American availability.
Among the other announcements is a special edition of BMW's flagship luxury sedan. The 7 Series Exclusive Edition upgrades with metallic paint, 19-inch V-spoke alloys, Nappa leather upholstery and a leather-trimmed instrument panel. Buyers will also be able to opt for the Merino fine grain leather and Alcantara roof lining from the BMW Individual catalog, and choose between any available engine or either wheelbase lengths.

BMW adds on-street parking to DriveNow carsharing in SF

Sat, May 10 2014

BMW is putting a new spin on the concept of the San Francisco treat. The German automaker cut a deal to clear out 80 street-parking spaces for its DriveNow car-sharing program in the notoriously parking-constrained City by the Bay. Bimmer is also more than doubling its all-electric ActiveE car-sharing fleet in San Francisco to 150 vehicles from 70. Starting later this month, customers will be able to access the DriveNow website or app to find, reserve and park the electric Bimmers on certain streets in San Francisco's Mission district. Once the car is ready to be turned back in, the vehicle's in-car screen will also indicate what "drop-off" zones the driver can use to end the reservation. It's all very high-tech, and BMW is looking to expand the program to other San Francisco neighborhoods like Bernal Heights, the Haight, Noe Valley and Potrero Hill. There's also a contest for users to name the 80 new vehicles, but it involves a really complicated lettering system. "New" here means new to DriveNow, since these ActiveE electric vehicles are really those that were, until recently, used by the Electronauts in BMW's EV leasing program. Since those leases are ending, the cars need to go somewhere. We think carsharing is a great home for them. BMW, which also runs DriveNow in the German cities of Berlin, Hamburg, Cologne, Munich and Dusseldorf, said in March that it was looking to add the service to as many as 15 more cities in Europe as well as another 10 in the US. BMW debuted DriveNow in San Francisco in August 2012, though parking the cars has always been an issue. Check out BMW's press release below. BMW Group's DriveNow Car-Sharing Service Expands to Street Parking in San Francisco. San Francisco Mayor Ed Lee and BMW Group board member Dr. Ian Robertson provided details about DriveNow at a news conference on ... Eighty All-Electric BMW ActiveE Vehicles Added to the DriveNow Fleet to Increase the Convenience of Finding and Parking Emission-Free Cars. San Francisco, CA – May 8, 2014... BMW Group subsidiary DriveNow, a flexible, premium car-sharing program, will expand to offer street parking in multiple neighborhoods in San Francisco, beginning in select areas of the Mission District and will add 80 electric BMW ActiveE vehicles to the existing fleet, increasing the total number of ActiveE vehicles in the San Francisco Bay Area to 150. DriveNow members will have the opportunity to name the 80 electric vehicles in a two-week social media challenge.
