ENGINE: Completely rebuilt with receipts!! Has 2200 miles on it. Complete valve job,gaskets/ seals(top end) -Replaced all piston rings (bottom end) -Replaced all seals/gaskets/fluids in the motor. New metal water pump. Motor was rebuilt as a preventative maintenance since the supercharger was being installed. SUPERCHARGER: Active Autowerke Supercharger installed (not brand new) adding over 100 HP giving the car about 360HP (with outside emblems as well). This supercharger kit costs $5k alone!!! One of the best supercharger kits you can buy on the market. Intercooler/oil cooler(both front mount) Rotrex blower, new Fuel injectors, new Ecu flash from active autowerks, all cooling hoses replaced -No leaks of any kind!! CLUTCH: New clutch installed!! --Shift bushings were replaced --replaced driveshaft and flex disc and driveline mounts.

BMW M3 Contour rims are in awesome shape!! No curb damage or anything like that. Nicer than most M3's out there. This overhaul was done to drive this car for another 100-150k miles because I thought I was going to keep the car but I bought a Mercedes instead. The body has 187k on it but again, mechanically this is a top notch car. Have the car inspected by any mechanic you have and they will tell you this car is bad ass!! Car is so responsive. Really needs someone who knows how to drive. Everything works perfect on the car. Sounds awesome and the supercharger screams!!! Please ask me any questions you have and let me know if you want pictures of anything else. I suggest you do inspections and all that stuff before the auction ends. Selling at no reserve and there are no returns. This car is being sold as is. $500 deposit after the auction. I will probably lose money on the car but that's my problem. Good luck bidding!!!

KBB 2013 Brand Image Awards has some obvious and oddball winners
Sat, 30 Mar 2013The sixth edition of the Kelley Blue Book Brand Image Awards have crowned a wide range of winners - in a couple of cases the recipient of the laurels might say more about KBB users than they do about the actual winner. Compiled from the responses of more than 12,000 shoppers on KBB.com over the past year, there are 13 categories broken into non-luxury, luxury and truck segments "representing the combined wisdom of the American car-buying public."
The award categories have been revamped this year, with some dropping off, some new ones appearing and at least one other given a new term. What isn't surprising is that Honda won Most Trusted Brand for the second year running, Best Value Brand for the third year in a row and took Best Overall Brand, which wasn't on last year's list of awards.
On our own shores, in the non-luxury categories Chrysler got Most Refined Brand and Buick took Best Value Luxury Brand. Neither one of those marques won anything in last year's Brand Image Awards, while Cadillac, which won Best Interior Design Brand and Best Comfort Brand last year - those awards disappeared this year - went home without a single accolade.
BMW i8 wins 2015 Car Of The Year award in UK
Sat, Feb 28 2015Those Brits sure do like those Bimmers, don't they? The BMW i8 plug-in hybrid was recently awarded UK Car of the Year from a group of more than two-dozen British automotive journalists, UK's Telegraph reported. Last year's winner of the first-ever such award? The BMW i3 electric vehicle. The i8 was feted for its combination of performance, styling and fuel efficiency. The car pairs a three-cylinder gas engine with a 96-horsepower electric motor and can go from 0-60 miles per hour in just over four seconds while having a fuel-economy rating of 76 MPGe. Last November, the i8 was given Autoblog's 2014 Technology of the Year award and the 2015 Luxury Green Car of the Year by Green Car Journal, so the British journalists are not alone in their sleek PHEV love. "This is a truly great honor for BMW's visionary car and proof that sustainable mobility can be beautiful and fun," BMW spokesman Kenn Sparks told AutoblogGreen. Other winners for individual categories from the UK this year included the Rolls-Royce Ghost (which won for Best Luxury Car), Ford Mondeo (Best Family Car) and Renault Twingo (Best City Car).

2015 BMW i8 offers you a fast ride to the future for $135,700* [w/video]
Tue, 10 Sep 2013BMW's long-form teasing and rollout of its incredibly cool i8 has put us in a unique position to report from its world debut here in Frankfurt. Typically, an auto show debut marks just the start of the information dump about a new vehicle. The i8, however, is a car that we've already driven and reviewed, so perhaps the biggest news from the show floor is the official price of the thing, as well as getting to see it live and in person, of course.
Arriving in US showrooms in the spring of 2014, the i8 performance plug-in hybrid will carry a price tag of $135,700 (*not including $925 for destination and handling charges). That kind of cash puts the i8 near the very top of the BMW range (slotting just under the top-trim 7-Series models), and will buy a massive amount of new technology.
The four-seat i8 has the look of a true supercar, and its new-tech drivetrain will offer up the performance of a stirring sports car, at least. A TwinPower Turbo, three-cylinder, 1.5-liter engine will make 231 horsepower and 236 pound-feet of torque that's gets sent to the rear wheels, while a 96-kilowatt electric motor doles out 131 hp and 184 lb-ft of maximum torque to the fronts. Total system output of 362 hp and 420 lb-ft allows the i8 to sprint to 62 miles per hour in 4.4 seconds with all-wheels-driven handling, and it still returns an astonishing 94 miles per gallon US.
