Condition: UsedA vehicle is considered used if it has been registered and issued a title. Used vehicles have had at least one previous owner. The condition of the exterior, interior and engine can vary depending on the vehicle's history. See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"Very good condition. Paint shows normal stone pits and minor scratching. There is a small crease on the passenger front fender (deer strike) and some small door dings. One of the side skirts has a deep scratch about 1" long. The wood veneer on the center console cracked in several places but still looks OK."
I'm selling my 1996 M3, Cosmos Black with black leather and 155,000 miles with 5 speed manual. This is a luxury package car which means sport seats, some wood and chrome trim, and non-twisty side skirts. I am the second owner, having bought this car Certified Pre-Owned back in January 1999; I've owned this car for over 14 years and have maintained it very well.
The car is mechanically in excellent condition. Everything works like it should with the single exception of the sunroof tilt feature; that still tilts, but the inside panel isn't moving with it so it won't vent; this started after I replaced the headliner and I assume I forgot to hook something up. It's probably an easy fix but I haven't found the time to fix it.
Mods are very limited: Koni SA shocks, Powerflex control arm bushings front and rear, VDO Gauges (Oil Pressure, Oil Temperature, Volts), HID Low Beams in glass lenses (can't remember which brand - been too long), keyless entry, Euro wiper control module (sets intermittent wiper interval), BSW Speakers front and rear (Stage 2), OMP aluminum pedal covers, and I modified the stock radio to accept an iPod, etc. via an auxiliary cable that comes out of the center console.
The car does have a 6 CD changer, but I removed it from the trunk to make more room. It will be included in the sale.
The interior including the leather seats are in above average condition. There is very little bolster wear and no rips or tears. I have religiously treated the leather since I have owned the car. There is a worn spot on the steering wheel that was there when I bought the car and the wood on the center console is cracked in two spots. On the exterior, there are what I would call normal paint chips and scratches, and several small parking lot dings. There is a crease on the passenger front fender where I hit a deer last year.
Recent mechanical work: I replaced the clutch at 135,000 miles, and the starter and rear shock mounts at 150,000 miles. I have always run Mobil 1 in the engine. It burns about a quart of oil every 1,000 miles which BMW calls normal. I have all the maintenance records that I have kept in a book and most of the receipts. All preventative maintenance is up to date.
Tires: The rears are nearly new Continental Extreme Contact DWS and have plenty of tread left. The fronts are Dunlop SP Sport Signatures.
Clean title in hand, all keys (Lighted Key, Spare Key, Valet Key, Wallet key)

BMW names new head of M division
Wed, 24 Sep 2014BMW's performance division has been run by Dr. Friedrich Nitschke since 2011, developing, among other products, the new M3 and M4. But soon the good doctor will be retiring, and BMW has just named his successor.
Taking Nitschke's place as chairman of BMW M GmbH will be Franciscus van Meel (pictured at right), who until recently served as managing director of Audi Quattro GmbH - the rival outfit that makes Ingolstadt's performance models, including the R8 supercar and RS line of performance models.
Van Meel will join BMW on October 1, presumably to learn the ropes from Nitschke before the 59-year-old executive steps down at the end of the year. Back in January, Audi named Heinz Peter Hollwerweger as head of Quattro GmbH and reassigned van Meel to its Beijing R&D center, a role which evidently didn't suit him as well as creating Autobahn-storming German muscle cars.

Next BMW X5 caught testing in the snow
Wed, Jan 20 2016That's not taken long at all. Less than three years after BMW introduced the current X5, the German automaker has already kicked off winter testing for its replacement. The new Sport Activity Vehicle (that's BMW for crossover) has been spotted in snowy terrain, complete with heavy camouflage and extra driving lamps. Now, this is a mule, which means we're absolutely not looking at production sheetmetal. Instead, we'd wager the next X5 is hiding well beneath this swirly camouflage. Compared with images of the current car, it looks like we're seeing a longer front overhang, a shorter rear overhang, and a tighter dash-to-axle ratio. That makes us think the next X5's exterior dimensions might be just a smidge smaller than the current model. And that gels with at least some of what our spies are telling us. For one, they're reporting that the new X5 will be significantly lighter, as is the trend nowadays. It will also be more comfortable and techy, both of which would put it in line with the new 7 Series. Beyond that, though, we're in the very earliest days of BMW's next SAV. The debut of the fourth-generation X5 will likely come in 2018 as a 2019 model. Related Video:
