Up for bids is a pretty rare color combo, I have been told for M3 Convertibles; bought it from a guy that was strapped for cash; this was his baby and after looking at all the high def pics that I have put up for your viewing it appears that it very well was. As far as service, I know that he had most all of his work done at BMW in Fort Walton Beach, Florida, Orr BMW in Shreveport, LA or at Hixon BMW in Monroe, La. (pics of some of the serviced tickets provided.), LA. When I took possession of this car it was in need of some maintenance issues and I have taken care of all of them. The oil change was done with that expensive Castrol 10-90 and there is about 13k left before it will need it again; the tires on the rear of these cars, I am told, wear out first and I have put new Bridgestone Potenzas on the back; the front ones are Yokahama and the dealer said that they had about 5k more left before replacement; (he said about Christmas time.) The brakes were in need of replacement and I have replaced the front pads and rotors; the rear pads were replaced last year and had well over 3/4 life left in them; the rear rotors, which function as only assistance with braking were inspected by the mechanic and are in very good shape. On the history of this vehicle, he bought it at 31k and drove it the balance of the 69k. 80% of the miles are road miles on I-20 and I-10; I knew that this car was pristine when I bought it due to his attention to maintaining it, caring for the finish and treating the leather. (he said that he used Surf City Garage leather conditioner every 2-3 weeks.). This vehicle may have a warranty in place due to a recall situation thru BMW; that is something that I have been informed of but have no time to research. As far as I am concerned it is sold as is by me. I have not driven this vehicle extensively but I cannot tell you how well that this car handles and performs. It will set you back in the seat on acceleration and stop on a dime and hand you 9 cents back in change. The ride is not smooth but I was told that this is the norm for these vehicles. It is a 6-speed car and not that SMG type that has been giving all the trouble that I have read about. It shifts perfectly and seamlessly and the clutch engages well; a testament to highway driving I guess. There are no service or warning lights on the dash and it has fewer than average front facia road debris chips. The paint, as you can see is a very high gloss finish and it has a set of high end Lorenzo rims that he had a custom paint job done to match the car. This car is a real performer and head turner. I have taken a pic of the new brakes before and after install but none of the rear ones. In the way of add-ons, there are BMW M style pedals installed on the brake, clutch and footrest he put in new BMW M3 floormats and it does have a BMW trunk mat and there are BMW rubber mats with the car for the front only;. It has a high end Alpine stereo along with a Sirrius receiver that has been inactivated; there is an I-Pod cable in the glove box and he had MB Quart speakers put in the doors; I am not a stereo guy but they sound awesome. I may be able to get my hands on the factory one but am unsure if it is in working order; I understand that the Alpine unit is head and shoulders above the BMW one. All interior accessories are in working order and the interior is beautiful with no wear spots or stains; there is some wear on the bolster where you get in and out but I am told this is normal; I did try the sport button,and it turns this car into a rocket; I just can't describe it and you would have to drive it to appreciate it. It comes with a full set of BMW trunk tools, and extra key but I could not locate the service manuals. They are available on E-Bay for about 60.00 if you want them. If you want a well serviced rocket to drive that will turn heads at every corner, this is it; I have a friend of mine that checked the wholesale auction scene on these cars and they are going under the hammer for 13 to 14k wholesale. All I can tell you is bid according to the condition and the info I have provided you. Ask questions if genuinely interested; I am on the road a lot and will try to answer them as best as I can or attempt to find out from the previous owner. Thanks for looking and let the bidding start.

BMW 5 Series future: 3-cyl engines and 600-hp M5

Fri, Jan 9 2015

What if we told you the next BMW M5 would crest 600 horsepower? You probably wouldn't be too surprised, considering the steady increase in output that's accompanied each preceding generation. Now, what if we told you that the next BMW 5 Series would be available with a three-cylinder engine? Yeah, that'd be a surprise. But it may be a reality, according to a new report from Car. In its roundup of information on the next-gen BMW 5, code-named G30, the Brit mag predicts the new sedan will arrive in the summer of next year riding on an all-new platform that trims nearly 180 pounds of body fat through the use of high-strength steel, aluminum and carbon fiber. That platform, called the CLAR, which is short for Cluster Architecutre will give birth to not only a new 6 Series, but (for some reason) a 5 Series Gran Turismo and a Touring model, which won't likely be sold in the US. It will also underpin the 7 Series, eventually. Under hood, the lighter 5er will be paired with a new 1.5-liter, three-cylinder turbodiesel for the entry level 518d. This is the same three-pot oil-burner found in the 2 Series Active Tourer and Mini Cooper D. Of course, considering how little of BMW's actual engine range is sold in the US, we very much doubt the 518d will make it across the pond. More likely candidates for the US market include a range of a 2.0-liter, four-cylinders, such as the 272-horsepower 528i, and potentially a four-cylinder diesel. Naturally, there will be six-cylinder mills, found on the 530i, 530d, 540i and M550d. At the very top of the range, of course, will be a 600-hp M5. There will even be a range of hybrids and plug-in hybrids that are sure to further annihilate the formerly logical BMW nomenclature. Car expects the new 5er to arrive next summer, which we'd wager would lead to a debut at either the 2016 Geneva Motor Show or perhaps next year's Auto China, in Beijing.

Jeep Grand Cherokee, BMW i8, Ford F-150 win 2015 Green Car Awards in DC [w/video]

Tue, Jan 27 2015

There were three shiny trophies handed out at the Washington Auto Show last week by Green Car Journal, and they went to three different examples of what "green" means in the automotive industry today. The Jeep Grand Cherokee EcoDiesel won the award for the 2015 Green SUV of the Year, the BMW i8 was named the 2015 Luxury Green Car of the Year and the Ford F-150 took the 2015 Green Car Technology Award honor. There is a case to be made that the aluminum body of the new Ford truck will make a bigger impact in the overall fuel usage in the US than almost any other vehicle, given the numbers of F-150s that Ford sells each year. The B20 biodiesel-capable Jeep gets up to 30 miles per gallon on the highway. And the i8 puts all sorts of new, fuel-saving technologies into an attractive package. Looking over the winners, and the list of finalists you can see in our photo gallery, and you can see that the definition of green is expanding every year. You can watch Green Car Journal editor Ron Cogan hand out the 2015 awards in the video below and we'll for sure be paying attention to what wins next year. 2015 Luxury Green Car of the Year, Green SUV of the Year and Green Car Technology Winners Announced WASHINGTON, Jan. 22, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Green Car Journal has named the Jeep Grand Cherokee EcoDiesel its 2015 Green SUV of the Year™ and the BMW i8 its 2015 Luxury Green Car of the YearÂ™, with the aluminum-bodied Ford F-150 earning the magazine's 2015 Green Car Technology AwardÂ™. Winners were determined by a jury of Green Car Journal editors and automotive experts. The prestigious awards were announced in Washington, D.C. today at a Green Car AwardsÂ™ press conference held during the Washington Auto Show's Public Policy Day at the Washington Convention Center. "These are truly commendable vehicles representing the 'best-of-the-best' in so many ways," said Ron Cogan, editor and publisher of the Green Car Journal and CarsOfChange.com. "The auto industry's very early focus on small cars and efficiency-for-environment tradeoffs has evolved to now include a more dynamic field of 'greener' models in all vehicle classes. Those wanting greater efficiency or better environmental performance are no longer constrained by limited choices or vehicle types that fall outside their top purchase preferences.

Watch this BMW take flight at Viru Rally

Mon, 20 Oct 2014

An E36 BMW 3 Series might be a good choice for a lot of purposes - a long road trip, a track day, rallycross, impressing your friends... but a full-on rally? It's rear-drive when the best rally machines are front- or all-wheel drive. But that didn't stop Pritt Koik and Alari-Uku Heldna from entering their stripped-out E36 in the Viru Rally in Estonia... or from getting some big air time when they did.
Fortunately the jump was not just caught on video... it was caught on video from three angles: two from the side of the rally stage and one from inside the cockpit. Check out all three below to see how this particular BMW got back into the aircraft business.
