1998 BMW M3 sedan in ultra rare Techno Violet metallic over black leather. NO SUNROOF!  You are looking at the very best M3 sedan anywhere, hands down.  I bought the car from a fellow BMW enthusiast and BMW CCA member over ten years ago.  I subsequently sold it to a friend/client who proceeded to invest over $50k in performance modifications including a complete Dinan S3 kit.  All performance work was done at 59,200 miles in May 2003.  I re-acquired the car and the reality is that I already have too many cars.  


Dinan S3 includes

1.  Dinan Supercharger
2.  Dinan Throttle Body
3.  Dinan Exhaust
4.  Dinan Stage 3 suspension including Dinan/Koni shocks and Dinan springs 
5.  Dinan Front and rear strut and shock tower braces

 HRE  547R wheel set with 18x8 and 18x9

Separately, a port and polish on the cylinder head was done to improve air flow.  A custom aluminum radiator was also installed. VDO oil temperature, oil pressure, and supercharger boost gauge cluster sit below the on board computer.

Also installed are a Dinan fuel rail cover and engine cover, both in carbon fiber.

Brembo big brake kit, front and rear installed at 59,500 miles in June 2003.

Aftermarket Xenon headlights installed 69,960 miles 11/30/12.


This car as you can see in the pics, it is virtually showroom new.  Never tracked or abused.  The leather still is still soft and smells new as well.  NO leaks!

No expense spared on maintenance.  Frequent oil changes and all maintenance and performance work performed at Avus Autosport in Glendale, CA.  

I doubt you will find another M3 sedan of this caliber anywhere.  This car is for the most discriminating enthusiast.  Words and pictures do not do this car justice.

This M3 is for the serious enthusiast.  It currently sits in a climate controlled garage among other collectible cars.  The price is firm.  Please do not ask or offer a lower price.  This M3 cannot be duplicated.  I will keep it rather than take any less.  The car is just incredible, one of the best all around cars I have ever experienced.

2015 BMW i8 Prototype

Wed, 07 Aug 2013

M Meets Edison
The real telling moment for the new BMW i division will be seeing how the recently tested 2014 i3 sells in its various markets, since that is the car that changes how we perceive our expectations of the brand. But this 2015 BMW i8 green supercar has all the earmarks of a slam-dunk project, we just needed to drive it and make sure for ourselves.
BMW has a spectacular test facility in southern France, called Miramas, and that's where we just had our first brief go behind the wheel of the i8. There were three cars for us there and they were dressed up in exactly the same paisley camo that we've all seen in the spy photos published everywhere for the past year. The interiors, though swathed in masking to hide all the details, varied in their color.

BMW planning smaller Z2 roadster

Sat, 10 May 2014

It's been a few years since we heard about the BMW Z2, a compact, two-seat convertible that would slot in below the aging Z4 (shown above). Now, though, the crew at Car and Driver are back with details on the oft-rumored roadster.
The big shock for enthusiasts on this one is C/D's report that the Z2 will spin its front wheels, rather than its rears. A front-drive roadster is strange enough, but a front-drive BMW roadster? It's apparently true, though, as the new model would share its platform with the front-drive Mini and 2 Series Active Tourer rather than with the racier 228i or M235i coupes.
According to C/D, the rumored Z2 could be powered by a range of three- and four-cylinder, turbocharged engines, although it's more likely to be a four-only affair. Power should range from 160 to 230 ponies, while an M variant could arrive with 300 horsepower (that's a whole lot of power for front-wheel drive...).

Audi leading rival BMW in worldwide luxury sales race

Tue, 11 Mar 2014

If you thought competition among the German luxury automakers was hot before, it looks like things are just getting started. For the first two months of the year, Audi has sold more cars than BMW worldwide by just 383 cars.
Audi claims to have sold 242,400 vehicles through February, up 9.3 percent from last year, compared to 242,017 units from BMW, up 8.9 percent, in the same period. While the advantage is tiny, its implications could be huge because Bimmer has been the leader in the premium car segment for the last nine consecutive years. Mercedes-Benz lags behind them somewhat at 229,630 vehicles through February. According to Bloomberg, at this time last year Audi had sold 429 fewer cars than BMW.
The growth is all part of Volkswagen Group's goal to become the world's largest automaker. It currently ranks in second when its heavy truck businesses are considered. The German automotive giant also wants to be the world's leading premium carmaker. "Competition in the premium segment is more intense than ever," said Audi CEO Rupert Stadler to Bloomberg.
