1995 Bmw M3 - Bostongrun/champagne, 36.5k Miles on 2040-cars

US $17,500.00
Year:1995 Mileage:36500 Color: /Champagne leather interior

Hello!  Regretfully selling my 1995 M3 Boston Green/Champagne coupe with only 36.5k mi.  Here are the specs:

- Boston Green exterior/Champagne leather interior
- automatic transmission
- luxury package (includes luxury seats, wood dash panels and different front bumper)
- brand new floor mats (I have the originals - still in great shape)
- currently ~36,500mi

The car is completely stock and 100% original- it has never been tracked, raced, or modified in any way. I am the third owner, although CarFax shows a 4th due to the car being transferred to an estate following the death of the original owner. The car was originally purchased as a custom order in Palm Springs, CA and driven in both California and Arizona. I purchased the car from an enthusiast who sold to to make way for his new Nissan GT-R.

The car has always been garaged, and the paint is excellent. The body is very straight and without any dings, dents, or scratches. Their is, however, a minor etch in the clear coat from a bird dropping on the roof- approximately the size of a nickel. All moldings, corner indicators, fogs, taillights and headlights have remained crystal clear and the plastic guards beneath the front bumper cover are all intact. The wheels are in average shape due to parallel parking mishaps from the original owner.

The interior in this car is in unbelievable condition. Champagne leather is fairly unique/rare and goes well with the luxury seats (these are not "Vaders") and the Bostongrun exterior. The leather is in remarkable shape and feels very soft- no cracks, discoloration or scuffs. Rear and passenger seat are in nearly unused and perfect condition. Some small wear exists on the driver side seat bolster (please see the photos)- I use a seat cover and regularly clean the seats. Headliner, carpets and mats (brand new, but I have the originals) are in top shape and without any stains or markings. Further, all the electronic components on the dash function and automatic seats adjust in all directions.

The engine is very smooth and quiet and the VANOS engages and disengages properly. The car handles well and the automatic transmission shifts perfectly and each mode- sport, economy, and manual. Comes with a cover, all factory tools, and the original spare. The car has always been maintained properly and all fluids are current.  R
ecent maintenance with all OEM fluids/parts (except as noted): engine oil (Redline 10W-40) and filter, intake filter, coolant, water pump (Stewart, aluminum impeller), thermostat, both accessory drive belts, power steering (Redline ATF), differential fluid (Redline 75W90), brake fluid flush, and fuel filter.  I have records dating back to the second owner, but nothing prior except the original keys (including valet), owners manual, and demo cassette tape.  All early records were lost during the transfer to the estate. The tires are Yokohama S Drive with ~30% remaining.

Inspections, at buyer expense, are welcome. If you are local, I would encourage you to come to see the car in person. Will ship anywhere. If you are looking for a very well cared for, low mileage, outstanding E36 M3, this is it.
Car is located in beautiful, sunny San Diego, CA.  Many thanks for your interest!

BMW i3 REx rated at 117 MPGe, 39 mpg with 72-mile EV range

Thu, May 22 2014

The numbers haven't made their digital way to the EPA's website yet, but we can now confirm that the BMW i3 with range extender will be officially rated at a combined 117 MPGe with 39 mpg once the battery runs out. That puts the amazing little city car just ahead of the pure-electric Fiat 500e (116 MPGE, combined) and behind the Honda Fit EV (118) and the Chevy Spark EV (119). In the plug-in hybrid category, it's at the top of the class, beating out the Honda Accord PHEV, which is rated at 115 MPGe but is also a much bigger vehicle. The i3 REx also has an official all-electric range of 72 miles and can go another 78 on gas (for a total of 150). When it's not carrying around the extra fuel tank and engine, the all-electric i3 gets 124 MPGe (combined), which is the currently the highest in the US. The i3 EV also has an all-electric range of 81 miles. BMW expects to deliver the first i3 REx in the US this week and delivered the first all-electric version earlier this month. There was a bit of a hold-up on the range-extender version thanks to a delay with getting these EPA numbers. Now that all the bureaucratic boxes have been checked, it's off to customer driveways they go.

BMW i3 configurator is so advanced it's replaced trim levels

Fri, 25 Apr 2014

BMW's electric i3 is slowly marching its way to dealers. It might not be happening quite fast enough for customers, though. For you anxious individuals, head over to the BMW consumer website and build your ideal i3 in the new configurator.
Before we talk about all the stuff this build tool can do, we need to address the naming of BMW's trim levels for the EV hatchback. The 328i, for example, is available in Sport Line, M Sport Line and Luxury Line. That's good; it makes sense. The i3, though, has Giga World, Tera World and Mega World. Seriously. We've no idea what BMW was thinking when it came up with this (this is the same company that regularly uses the phrase "Sport Activity Vehicle," so...).
Silly names aside, let's try and translate where each trim fits in. The Mega World is the base trim. The Giga, at $1,700, adds stylish leather-and-wool seats in a clean two-tone color scheme, along with 19-inch wheels and a leather-covered IP. The Tera World demands $2,700, but makes up for it with its own 19-inch wheels and a full leather interior. Both lines (worlds?) add satellite radio and eucalyptus wood trim.
