The overall condition of this M3 is super nice inside and out! This car has been properly cared for and well maintained since it was new by a fellow BMW CCA club member. This car has always been serviced and was in fact a former BMW CPO car. Everything is up to date including the inspection II, the wheels and tires have been replaced, brakes and rotors have plenty of life on them, as they were recently replaced, and most importantly all the dealer recommended inspections have been completed on time when they were due. 

Please note that this is not your typical 01' E46 M3, I was in search of this car for over a year, my last E46 M3 was an SMG 04' with 50k, but  I really wanted to purchase a 6 spd manual. As i started searching I started running into the same issue over and over again of most of the cars were beat and abused, many were tracked and many owned by younger individuals, which made them rougher cars in general. The main thing that attracted me was that i was purchasing from someone i knew.

Most of these cars due to the age they have a very limited amount of information available in regards to how they have been taken care of and how it was driven. This car has always waxed, garage kept, never driven in chicago winters. 
I really don't want to part with the car but recently I had the opportunity to be able to purchase an EVO E30 M3 and I need to make room in my garage. 

Please note this car is in great condition but being a used car please have realistic expectations. Exterior condition I would rate a 9/10 only flaws are some some rock chips in the front bumper clear bra, always minor ding in front passenger fender, and very minor scratch on rear deck-lid, the front clear bra also shows wear due to its age but it has done phenomenal job of protecting the car. Tires id say they have plenty of tread left they were only put on a few months ago, rims are brand new as well, there are no rock chips on the hood, rear bumper is in excellent shape.  To my knowledge this car has absolutely no paint work. You must come see this car to really appreciate it.  Feel free to schedule a time to come by my office and check out the car, i'd love to show it to any serious buyers, please do any inspections, or test drives prior to purchasing the car.

2014 BMW X5

Wed, 18 Sep 2013

Is Better Than Ever Still Good Enough?
By now, all but the staunchest of traditionalists have moved past the shock and horror of seeing their favorite automotive brands branching into categories and segments that break with their previously accepted norms. In other words, you and I don't really care all that much if the BMW M3 is powered by an inline six or a V8, or whether it boasts a turbocharger, just so long as the end result is an awesome car. Similarly, we don't get all hot under the collar seeing that same M3 share space on the showroom floor with a brace of SUVs and crossovers... or, as BMW continues to insist, Sports Activity Vehicles.
Time, as they say, heals all wounds, and the BMW X5 has been around long enough, having first seen the light of day in 1999, that anyone offended by its existence has since gotten over it. Plus, the X5 is a legitimately nice vehicle to drive, offering such desirable qualities to family men and women as seating for up to seven, all-wheel drive and a commandingly tall view of the road. For the enthusiast set, the X5 serves up a taut chassis and powerful engine options.

Tesla, BMW and Nissan meeting in secret to discuss charging tech

Tue, Jun 17 2014

It's interesting what's happening in the electric vehicle field. It used to be that BMW and Tesla were competitors. Then – and of course they're still competing, especially in the public mind – they were working together on ... something. Maybe. And now, the Financial Times reports that the two luxury automakers are meeting with Nissan. Again, maybe. The scuttlebutt is that the three companies are interested in working together on something to do with charging electric vehicles, potentially a global recharging standard. Currently, when it comes to fast charging, BMW uses the SAE Combo standard, Nissan uses CHAdeMO and Tesla uses its own Superchargers. The meeting was prompted by Tesla opening of all of its patents the other day, FT says. Speaking during the recent annual shareholder meeting, Musk said he was "more than happy to have other manufacturers" use Tesla's Superchargers but that, "there is no other electric car that can accept anything close to 135 kilowatts." Let's assume the technical hurdle can be overcome. With any potential patent/licensing problems out of the way, these discussions with BMW and Nissan might be revolving around this other angle that Musk mentioned: "They (other automakers) just have to contribute to the capital cost, so figure out what percentage of the time are their cars using the Supercharger network and then they can make a contribution proportionate to their customer usage of the Supercharger network." That certainly sounds like something that could take some time to figure out.
