1997 Bmw M3 Sedan on 2040-cars
Marshfield, Wisconsin, United States
I am the 3rd owner of this Bimmer. I have had it for about a year and a half. Now I'm looking to upgrade to a E46 M3 or a used late 90's Corvette. It runs great. Gas mileage is 31 while going 55 mph. The car is very solid, fast, and fun to drive. It will get sideways when you ask it to. I have multiple tickets for sliding. I believe the 0-60 brand new for this car was around 5.4 seconds. It still throws you back in the seat. The lights are also upgrade as of last year. The brakes were done last summer by me, I didn't buy a sensor though so that light is on, and the airbag light has been on since day one. So don't crash it. The car has great reviews on Edmunds and Car and Driver. This car was just serviced by Belden's Automotive in San Antonio. I have all receipts of maintenance since I owned the car.
It is a 1997 though, so it isn't perfect. It has some quirks, but nothing major. The AC is a little loud when not on full blast, the right side front door doesn't auto lock like it supposed to. You need to manually do it. The driver side seat is fairly worn. If you have any questions you can contact me whenever. Do not contact me if you aren't serious. Price is firm. I am in no hurry to sell. Nick |

BMW 1 Series getting a small nose job
Tue, 06 Aug 2013As BMW prepares to launch its new 2 Series lineup, it appears that the current 1 Series is going to get a little attention for itself. Based on these spy photos, the 1 Series hatchback (F20/F21), which is not offered in the US, will be getting a minor facelift in the near future.
From what we can see in these images, the updated 1 Series will definitely be getting a tweaked front end, with most of the attention focusing on the air intakes and grille. Our shooter tells us that it is possible that the headlights may yet be reworked in some way by the time we see this car in production form. It still isn't clear if we'll ever see this bodystyle or the next-gen 1 Series in the US, but our most recent report seems to indicate that the car's fortunes will depend somewhat on how well the Mercedes CLA-Class and Audi A3 sell.
BMW M3 driving off cliff is a chilling PSA
Mon, 10 Jun 2013We're a little shocked that the unnamed owner of this cliff-diving E46 BMW M3 would upload the in-car footage of his accident to YouTube. Not only that, he uploaded two videos: raw footage of his roll down the cliff (it looks like somewhere in the Southwest, maybe Arizona) and a tribute video for his BMW that suffered the most severe consequences of understeer. Not only does uploading the videos leave him wide open for judgment by fellow enthusiasts (just read the YouTube comments), but we imagine if the police and his insurance company somehow don't know about the incident already, they will shortly. Scroll below to view for yourself.
The raw footage shows the sort of driving that led to the M3's violent tumble, and it serves as a good public service announcement reminder for everyone out there: Just like the Spengler's streams, double yellow lines aren't meant to be crossed. Also, hard driving is one thing, but hammering on public roads at speeds clearly above your skill levels as a driver is not only a recipe for legal trouble, it's a script for ruining your car at the very least, if not your life.
2015 BMW i8: Autoblog Technology of the Year finalist
Wed, 19 Nov 2014
Traditionally, nominations for the Autoblog Technology of the Year award are earned for specific developments - a new-think powertrain, a uniquely developed material, a groundbreaking smartphone app, or what have you. In the case of BMW's marvelous i8, it so bristles with novel applied sciences and fresh features that we broke with tradition and nominated the entire car.
We just couldn't help ourselves. Oh, we could've focused on the i8's carbon-fiber monocoque, or its well-resolved plug-in-hybrid powertrain that incorporates a tiny 1.5-liter three-cylinder engine and an electric motor, or its seamless through-the-road all-wheel drive. This is a car that will even have frickin' laser beams for headlights - at least it will for our friends in Europe (and it will in the US, should our legislators ever catch up).
