2002 Bmw E46 M3 Coupe on 2040-cars
Las Cruces, New Mexico, United States
You’re looking at a 2002 Titansilber Metallic/Imola Red BMW
E46 M3 Coupe. This car was originally
manufactured in 11/01 at the Regensburg, Germany factory and purchased new from
Ralph Schomp BMW in Denver, CO. It remained
in Denver until the beginning of this year when it came to southern New Mexico. This is an extremely clean Mountain
West/Desert Southwest non-smoker car. It currently serves as my daily driver and I’ve had no issue with it. Ithas always been garaged and is in beautiful condition! I’m selling it because I now need a truck.
If you’re specifically looking for an E46 you already know how awesome these cars are. For those who may not be a familiar with it, the E46 was developed as an evolutionary replacement for the BMW E36 chassis and is the fourth generation of the 3 Series compact executive cars produced by BMW. The E46 M3, first introduced in October 2000, appeared worldwide with the new 3.2 L S54 M-tuned engine. At the time of the car's introduction, this engine had the highest specific output naturally aspirated of any engine ever made by BMW (except in the McLaren F1). Here are some general specs if interested: · 333 hp (248 kW; 338 PS) · Torque: 262 lb·ft (355 N·m) · 0-60 mph (97 km/h) — 4.6 s for SMG · 1/4 mile – Coupe: 13.0 s @ 104 mph (167 km/h) · Top speed – Coupe: 155 mph (250 km/h) (electronically limited), 170 mph (270 km/h) (delimited) · Skid pad – Coupe: 0.89 g I’ve included the VIN (WBSBL934X2JR14099) if you'd like to decode it or running the carfax. The car is in amazing condition for its age, but there are a few things that need to be mentioned. I'm not a fan of surprises, so I'd hate to do that to you. Exterior: The paint is not sun damaged and the clearcoat is shiny. There are a few rock chips on the hood which have been touched up. I recently picked up a rock in the windshield, so that needs to be replaced. Also, there is one minor dent on the driver side front fender flare. All of this is shown in the pictures. I’m happy to answer any questions, but in general the exterior is in great condition. Interior: Leather is in great shape. The only notable item is some MINOR wear on the driver side seat leading edge from getting in/out of the car. No cracks, fade, or abnormal wear. Mechanical: This car is all original with no aftermarket modifications…bone stock. Always maintained per the manual. No ominous dash lights remain continuously on. Regular oil changes with mfg recommended Castrol Synthetic. The car has laser sharp handling and is generally very tight all the way around. All pictures were taken the day before this listing was posted and reflect the current condition of the car. |

BMW will electrify all brands and model lines, including Mini
Tue, Jul 25 2017BMW has announced that it plans to produce a fully electric version of the three-door hatchback Mini. The car will go into production in 2019, and the battery electric drivetrain will be produced at BMW's Bavarian facilities, then transported to Plant Oxford where it will join the cars. BMW says there will remain a diesel variant in addition to the petrol, plug-in hybrid, and EV versions of the Mini. No prototype shots have been released of the upcoming cars; the current one was unveiled in late 2013. The UK production location isn't the only place where BMW builds Minis, as the former Volvo/Mitsubishi/Smart NedCar plant in the Netherlands has been tooled to build some of the 360,000 Minis built yearly. According to the BBC, UK Business Secretary Greg Clark considers the choice to build EV Minis in Britain a "vote of confidence" despite Brexit, and that it would see battery technology development boosted in the UK. By the time the EV version starts production, UK will likely have already left the European Union. The electrification of the Mini is part of BMW Group's continuing addition of full-electric or plug-in versions to all its brands and model series. Of all the vehicles it will sell in 2025, 15-25 percent will be electrified in one way or the other. Similarly to Volvo, BMW sees flexible production to be in a key position in the future: The facilities would have to be able to build all versions at the same time, as markets fluctuate depending on incentives and infrastructure. If EVs sell strongly, the production process can quickly respond to the demand. An electric Mini underwent trials back in 2008, so the full-scale production vehicle would have over a decade's worth of engineering behind it. Green BMW MINI mini ev bmw group
Project CARS vs reality at Laguna Seca shows amazing potential
Mon, 28 Apr 2014Project CARS is aiming to be the next great racing sim. Offering a mix of modern and classic cars on famous tracks, developer Slightly Mad Studios is trying to inject a fresh energy into the genre, and at the moment its game looks ready to take on Forza and Gran Turismo.
The game is still about six months from release, and the graphics already look practically photorealistic. The video below shows side-by-side laps of Laguna Seca in a BMW - real life on the left and the game on the right. It's absolutely astounding. Other than some changes to the sponsorship around the track, they are almost identical.
Of course anyone with quality seat time in a racing sim knows that graphics are just one factor. How the game feels is even more important, and without getting hands on, it's impossible to judge yet. However, consider our interest piqued. Project CARS is scheduled to launch in November on the Sony PlayStation 4, Microsoft Xbox One, Nintendo WiiU, Windows PC and Steam OS. Scroll down to check out the video.
