2004 BMW M3 E46 with SMG transmission for sale. Imola Red (color exclusive to M vehicles). 90,500 miles on the odometer. I purchased this car in August 2011 with approximately 84,000 miles. Vehicle is in excellent running order. Car has been well maintained, garage kept, weekend driven only, never a daily driver vehicle. It has always been a non-smoker's vehicle. I never raced it, and it was always driven carefully.

What's Right:
• Car is mechanically sound and is an excellent example of an E46 M3. It is extraordinarily fast and performs as it was intended. It shows some minor signs of wear and tear, but the important things on this car work very well.
• When I bought the car I had the usual filters, drive belts, spark plugs and fluids inspected and swapped. I have had the car professionally maintained since then and have copies of these records.

What's wrong:
• The cigarette lighter is missing. The socket still works for phone chargers, etc.
• The driver's side power door lock has never worked for unlocking. It does work for locking. I simply use the key to unlock the driver's side door after I disarm the alarm.
• There is a trim rail missing on the roof. This rail conceals mounting holes for a ski rack.
• The tire sensor light on the dash board is always on, no matter how the tire pressures are set.
• The body and wheels have some scratches from the previous owner. Some of them were repaired, and evidently not by a professional.
• The driver's floor mat was missing when I purchased this car. Same for some of the factory tools in the car's trunk lid.
• The fuel gauge is consistent, but a little off. This is apparently common for this vehicle. When the gauge reads 1/4 full, I start looking for gas stations.
• It leaks windshield wiper fluid.
• Both fog lamps have cracks on the lenses. They both work fine despite the cracks.
Rear tires will need to be changed soon. Front tires are in great condition.

Aftermarket parts:
• The front struts were replaced. Initially I was going to buy stock struts, however Koni adjustable struts were available and actually cheaper than factory stock. They work amazingly well. The softest setting performs like the factory struts, leaving room to tighten them up for a more performance oriented feel.
• The factory stereo was pretty pathetic, and was replaced with a Kenwood CD player (Excelon KDC-X796), professionally installed by CARTOYS. CARTOYS also hardwired and routed a radar detector cord to the top of the dashboard, so that a cord would no longer be required at the cigarette lighter or draped across the heater and stereo controls. CARTOYS also installed an aftermarket alarm system (Clifford Model 320.3X).
• The factory auto-dimming rearview mirror was replaced by a more reliable and safer electronic version. The stock mirrors have a tendency to fail, and leak corrosive liquid.

Included:
• Full set of Cooper studded snow tires mounted on 17" alloy wheels. 225 45 R17 tires, the size recommended by BMW for winter tires.
• 2 BMW keys.
• 2 alarm remotes and instructions for alarm system.
• Box for the Kenwood stereo system, remote and instructions.
• Koni front strut adjusting knob.
• Instructions for alarm system
• Original BMW Business CD player/radio
• Bentley Mechanic's Manual

Features:
• Power Steering
• Power Door Locks
• Cruise Control
• Traction Control
• Anti-Lock Brakes
• Keyless Entry
• Power Windows
• Automatic Climate Control
• Leather Seats
• Stability Control
• Limited Slip Differential
• Lightweight Domed Aluminum Hood
• 3.2L Inline 6 cylinder engine; 7900 Rpm Redline and 333 Horsepower
• Steering column mounted Shifting Paddles, in addition to the center console mounted gearshift.
• Automatic shifting mode

Options:
• Heated Seats
• 19" Alloy "M" Wheels
• Power Sunroof
• Bi-Xenon Headlamps
• M Leather Steering Wheel
• Front Center Armrest
• Auto-Dimming Interior Mirror
• Park Distance Control
• Rain Sensor Windshield Wipers
• Auto Headlights
• Six-speed sequential manual gearbox (SMG II), an electronically shifted version of the M3's standard six-speed manual.

Thanks for looking!

BMW shows up-armored X5 concept and we can't get near it

Wed, 11 Sep 2013

BMW has brought a slightly different concept vehicle to the 2013 Frankfurt Motor Show. Rather than something that foreshadows a future product or a new design direction, the Munich-based manufacturer has brought an X5 that's designed to be shot at. It's called the Concept X5 Security Plus. The Concept X5 name is a bit misleading, though. It's based on the 2014 X5, while BMW already builds an armored CUV, called the X5 Security. The concept tag has to do with the "Security Plus" part.
Engineered to be compliant with VR6 security standards - the current X5 Security is for VR4 standards - the Concept X5 will quite happily shrug off direct attacks from an AK-47. Thanks to sealed joints, high-strength steel moldings, high-performance steel body panels and special, polycarbonate-coated security glass, Kalashnikov's finest, whether used as a firearm or as a melee weapon, would be useless against this X5.
Built alongside the standard X5 in BMW's Spartanburg, SC factory, the X5 is shipped to a BMW facility in Toluca, Mexico for installation of the armor and security features. The company claims this delivers a more thoroughly engineered protective solution than aftermarket retrofitting.

BMW, Mini to offer Amazon Alexa in all models beginning next year

Fri, Sep 29 2017

Voice recognition has been available in cars for years now, but the technology has improved, and found its way into our pockets and our homes. With applications like Siri and gadgets like the Amazon Echo essentially acting as digital personal assistants, the ways we interact with technology through our voice have advanced significantly in recent years. BMW plans to take advantage of the evolved voice technology, and will offer Amazon Alexa in every BMW and Mini model beginning in the middle of 2018. Drivers will be able to use the usual Alexa features (or "skills" in Amazon speak) to get the latest news and weather, provide entertainment, or remotely control their smart home gadgets. Alexa will also perform car-specific duties, such as navigation or locating nearby businesses. Users can also check on movie times, request specific playlists or even order products from Amazon through Alexa. View 5 Photos It's the logical next step for BMW, which has allowed owners to check the status or control features of their car through Alexa's BMW Connected skill since last year. Users won't need to bring their smartphone along for the Alexa to work, as BMW and Mini models will be equipped with their own SIM cards. Alexa will be available in cars in the United States, United Kingdom and Germany. As our friends at Engadget point out, the timing is important, as Amazon risked being left behind by the likes of Apple and Google, which offer their technology in vehicles via Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Amazon would do well to expand access beyond the three markets in-car Alexa will launch in, for exactly the same reason. Check out the video above for how BMW envisions users interacting with Alexa. We really hope some lucky M4 owner does, in fact, actually order a pizza while drifting on the deck of an aircraft carrier. That's a future we want to live in.

Forget about greenlighting it, BMW is already testing the M2

Thu, 08 May 2014

One week ago, we reported, with some skepticism, that BMW had greenlit a car we've been waiting for since the 1 Series M Coupe was discontinued - the M2. Now, we have the first images of that new hotshot underoing testing in Germany.
What's our reasoning here? After all, this just looks like an M235i. Well, that camo is disguising swollen fenders designed to conceal wider tires. Now, these aren't production changes, and it's very likely that the eventual M2's fenders will look quite a bit different. According to our spy, the front fenders have been borrowed from the M235i Racing, while the rears are from an unknown source.
Our spies are also quick to point out a few other high-performance items on this mule. The cross-drilled brakes and blue M calipers are one such item, although we aren't sure how much they differ from the optional stoppers on the production M235i. The black wheels are borrowed from the M3 and M4, and are shod in what look like a sticky set of Michelin tires.
