1999 BMW M3 coupe
-Techno Violet exterior on Dove Gray leather interior. -Fully loaded. -Sport package. -Power Vader seats. -5spd manual trans. -78,xxx original miles. -All original. -Meticulously maintained. -Only serviced using OEM BMW parts, including original BMW motor oil since new. -Only 93octane Super petrol at the pump. -Never modified or abused. -Clean and clear history and title. Mechanicals: -The car starts on the first turn of the key every time. Idles perfectly steady with no problems whatsoever. The motor pulls extremely strong throughout the entire RPM range with full power and proper compression in all six cylinders. -OEM clutch that feels and performs like new. Transmission shifts perfectly throughout all gears with a tight and precise throw. Absolutely no slipping, grinding, crunching, or problems of any kind. -Steering and suspension both feel excellent and leave the driver with full confidence. Very sporty with tight and precise mannerism, although retaining that world renown BMW comfort on those longer drives. -Brakes are all newer and work flawlessly. Hand brake also locks extremely tight. -All electronics work as they should. Rare powered Vader seats, original option. The sought after OEM+ CD43 radio/headunit is installed, however the original tape deck radio is included. The original CD changer is also still in the trunk and works as it should. -All lighting work as they should with no flaws. -A/C blows ice cold on the hottest of days. The heat also works flawlessly. Perfect pixels and fully functioning climate control unit (very common problem with this model is a faulty climate control unit). -Absolutely no warning lights or CEL on the dash cluster. Cosmetics: -Beautiful original Techno Violet paint in immaculate condition. Before owning this ///M3 the thought of a purple car would have made me cringe, however I must say in full honesty that this is one of the cleanest, classiest, and coolest colors I have ever seen on any car. The photos do not do justice for the condition of this car's paint, I welcome any serious buyers to come see for yourself. -All plastic trim is in great shape and still deep black in color with minimal fading. -All glass is original and flawless. -The Dove Gray leather interior compliments the Techno Violet paint very well creating a subtle, yet extremely attractive color combination. The carpets, door panels, and headliner are all in excellent condition with no stains, rips, or tears of any kind. The dash is excellent as well with no cracks or defects of any kind. The powered leather Vader seats are in great shape for their age, although they are not in "new" condition. They are, however, extremely presentable and very in respectable shape giving their age and the nature of such a light color. There are no stains, rips, tears, or holes in any of the seats. The rear seats and passenger front seat are a solid 9.5/10 -- however the driver's seat is an 8/10 due to expected and common wear on the bolsters. In all honesty, a simple "Leatherique" treatment would really bring the Vader seats up to par with the rest of the car. In no way, shape, or form is any upholstery work required. Unfortunately I am my own worst critic, but in reality almost everyone who sees the interior in person raves about its condition. -The original spare tire, jack, tool kit, and entire trunk are in excellent, unmolested condition. -The engine bay is extremely clean and appears to have been detailed regularly since new. All plastics and rubber hoses are in excellent shape and are still a very deep black in color. All fluid reservoirs are clean and presentable with no leakage. -Absolutely no leaking fluids anywhere. Upgrades: -Stainless steel STROMUNG exhaust. Super high quality made in Germany and retails for $700 USD. Looks, sounds, and performs incredible. In my opinion, the best made and best sounding exhausts for the E36 ///M3. -New black leather shift boot with tri-colored ///M stitching. -OEM BMW ZHP weighted shift knob. -OEM BMW CD43 headunit. -High quality aFe air intake which also improves sound and performance. Disclaimer: Despite being a meticulously maintained and low mileage example of this German built sport coupe, it is a used 1999 model year ///M3 with 78,xxx miles. For its age, the car is immaculate, but one cannot expect a brand new car. It is not without very minor flaws and blemishes, which are inevitable and should be expected on a vehicle that is 14+ years old. Mechanically the car is without fault, and it is all up to date on any and all services. Regular care and maintenance is required to keep this car in perfect working order. Car is sold as-is, where-is. No warranty is express or implied. I encourage all interested parties to come feel, see, and hear this beautiful machine in person. Feel free to email with any questions or concerns. Good luck bidding!

It has always been garaged when not in use since it has been in NY. (2)-Absolutely NO RUST anywhere on this car. Structurally sound and solid. (3)-The original DSII wheels have been refinished in a Nogaro Silver color which compliments the car's color combination perfectly. The wheels are clean, cool, and beautiful. (4)-All four tires are like-new. Goodyear Eagle GT with 225/45 in the front and 245/40 in the rear. Very reliable, grippy, and comfortable tires with no road noise. On Oct-21-13 at 20:12:49 PDT, seller added the following information:I also forgot to mention that the cooling system has been serviced very recently, including a brand new radiator, with receipts.

BMW i3 misses top Euro safety rating [w/videos]
Wed, 27 Nov 2013The Euro NCAP just tested a recent batch of new cars including the 2014 BMW i3, and the EV Bimmer scored less-than-perfect results. Though not horrible, BMW's all-electric/range-extended i3 was given a four-star (out of five possible) crash rating due to concerns with front-occupant whiplash and side-impact protection.
Based on the crash results, the BMW provided suitable protection for occupants in the frontal, side barrier, pedestrian and child-seat tests, but the i3 was tripped up when it came to the more severe side pole test and the rear-impact test. The pole test showed protection to the chest of the test dummy was "weak," and the front seats only provided "marginal" protection against whiplash for front passengers. Scroll down to watch two videos released by the Euro NCAP of the i3 being tested.
Behind the Scenes of BMW's 'Drift Mob,' Part 2 [w/video]
Tue, 01 Jul 2014After spending four days practicing about a dozen drift stunt moves in a parking lot for an upcoming BMW "Drift Mob" internet mini-film, Rhys Millen, Sam Hübinette, Dai Yoshihara, Rich Rutherford, and Conrad Grunewald are finally ready for show time. We are brought to the huge urban traffic circle to see the stunts performed midway through the day to observe for a couple of hours.
The undertaking is massive, with multiple cameras set up, scores of crew members, a helicopter filming from above, a rigged pickup for car-to-car shots, sidewalks lined with security and plenty of curious onlookers, and oh, yeah, a major intersection of a top world city shut down for an entire weekend.
The five drifting legends are nestled in their identical red BMW M235i coupes, which have been modified with special handbrakes but essentially nothing else you can't get on a stock version, and are listening to direction from director Mic Rodgers and stunt coordinator Riley Harper. We're basically given free rein of the set, to shoot the cars, the drivers, and at one point, even hopping in with Yoshihara for one of the admittedly more tame stunts. Even then, the g-forces are so severe that they flip our cameraphone's video recording from landscape mode to portrait. Yes, this is a pretty cool day to be reporting on cars, and as we said during our first installment of our behind the scenes coverage of Drift Mob, we're honored to be the only US media outlet here to tell the tale.
Watch Emily Blunt and John Krasinski prank Jimmy Kimmel's SUV
Thu, Dec 18 2014Jimmy Kimmel has a bit of a rivalry going with Emily Blunt and John Krasinski. Not like the "I'm on television, you're on the radio" one he has with his former Man Show co-host Adam Carolla (who of course has more to do with cars than the last name he almost shares with a Toyota economy sedan). With Blunt and Krasinski, it's more of a prank rivalry. The Hollywood couple, you see, live across the street from Kimmel, and they're all good friends. But come the holiday season, things get a little competitive. One year they broke into Jimmy's house and left an illuminated snowman and some sort of santa bear in his foyer. Jimmy retaliated, the Krasinskis escalated, and up and up things went until Jimmy had their entire house wrapped like a gift. John and Emily weren't going to leave it at that, though, and took things in a decidedly more automotive direction. They gift-wrapped the host's BMW X5 and filled it with balls. But they didn't stop there. You'll want to watch the footage above to see how things ended, just take note of the roll cage visible as Krasinski-Clause stumbles out of the car in that last scene and remember that, while we couldn't say no vehicles were actually harmed in the making of this segment, at least it doesn't appear to have actually been Kimmel's.
