For sale is my 2003 BMW m3.. It is a very clean car.. gets looks everywhere I go.. I am the 2, 3rd and 4th owner let me explain.. I purchased this car used gosh years ago.. Had a divorce and sold it to my father for safe keeping, I still drove it, and then once done I purchased it back from my father.. So hope that clears up confusion if you do a car fax.. I have the documents to prove this as well..
Mechanically its sound, all inspections are uptodate, including inspection 2 was performed just this may at a certified dealer (I have documentation). SMG pump, Clutch, Flywheel, gear selector system was all replaced last year at again the same certified BMW dealer and I have reciepts to show it.. So you have a year left on the warranty of those parts if needs be..
While inspection 2 was being done, I replaced the waterpump, radiator, coil packs, plugs, transmission fluid, rear differential cover and fluid, of course motor oil TWS 10w60 and mann filter like the car always has had via the dealer only. power steering hoses are new as the pressure had a slow drop to it this spring, so during inspection I had it replaced also. Belt etc all brand new.. as of this spring... Car runs like a dream!! No subframe issues were found when inspected.
Car has new suspension bushings, brakes have around 6K miles on them as they were replaced last year ar around 88K miles give or take a few.. Tires are new as of this spring so 90% tread left on them..
Wheels are 19" CSL wheels staggered fitment, OEM suspension, CSL replicated Carbon roof, Carbon GTR hood (its painted to match the car minus the vents), Carbon trunk lever, and carbon diffuser.. It looks great off the matte black paint.. which was done in the spring also.. again I have reciept from the body shop who did it.. The color is Duport Hot Rod Black.. surprisingly very easy to clean... soap and water and microfiber towel dry and your done for the paint.. that simple!! Looks supurb, and def gets attention!! Also has the CSL front bumper lip..
Interior is in excellent condition also, leather has always been conditioned and cleaned. floor mats are in great shape and are the orginials. Stereo is only thing not OEM, but if buyer demands I have the OEM hardon Kardon stuff I can toss back in and keep my upgraded stuff but price of vehicle will not change due to this, and buyer only gets one..
I have 6.5" Alpine type R component sets in the doors, and the rear deck lid, and a layer of dynamat in the trunk, floor, and doors of this car.. It has a sony HD headunit for HD radio listening or for your Ipod which I use a lot.. I even have a 12" Sub that is in the trunk and easily removeable... The stereo completely rocks, No you wont win car shows with the stereo, or a competition with it.. But It sure the heck beats OEM by a heck of a lot.. Its boarder line too loud if you want it.. But it is super clean and crisp... I listen to rock and country often (yes odd mix) but it plays mudvayne exceptional then I toss brad paisley in and it sounds just as good.. and rumbles the mirrors without distortion..
Lights on the car all all HID 6000K, and are the auto adjustible versions.. meaning they align themselves automatically.. You can see it once you first power up the car.. the headlights will move up and down and find the center.. its kinda cool but ive grown used to it..
Exhaust is OEM, and the o2 sensors I replaced this spring when I did the inspection just cause they claim 90-100k is average life of a sensor, so I just went ahead and put new ones in while I was there.. it didnt need it but i did it anyways.. I am kinda picky on this car, and any sign of trouble it goes to the dealer asap... but i never really had any issues with it.. and its in my view in excellent condition.. all the major if;s on the m3 cars I have either replaced, or upgraded already with documents to show it... so the new owner should have years of driving pleasure with no concerns..
drives straight, handles amazingly like any m car should, and it isnt the fastest off the line but it does well.. It shines in the upper rpm range and on the highway... I never had it going to 160+ but i bet it will do it no doubt about it.. the car shocks lots of stangs and camaros when they toy with it.. lol... that being said its been my m3 for years, if you want a car that never once in its life been ran hard keep looking.. I have redlined it before and gotten on it and drove it like it should, but 80% the time I drove it like it was a metro haha!! so No it was not abused.. it was never on the strip or any track for that matter.. and if anyone who owns a sports car says they never got on their car to see some power they are liars... I have and will admit to it, and darn its fun!!! But it was never anything i did on a daily basis by any means..
car never was driven in snow or salt.. heck i barely drive it in any bad weather.. once in a while rain if i get caught in it.. but normally it sits in my garage on bad days.. but when its sunny I drive it, and i like to drive it a lot... I put a years worth of mileage on it in 4 months every year cause I try and drive it that much.. but once weather comes.. its in the garage with a cover over it, and tis started here and there just to keep it going well and not to drain the battery..
Ohh that reminds me the battery is new last fall too, its a OEM BMW battery that I wish i went to autozone for as it cost me around 300 dollars and i could did it myself for around 70.. ohh well, least its new...
questions please ask away.. ill be happy to answer them, and sales are final.. I wont do joy rides with you etc.. if you buy it ill take you around the street, on the highway etc.. but till its paid for i wont let you drive it.. sorry I had a supra i sold once and god knows how many kids tried to buy it and just wanted to drive it then was like well i cant afford it.. so no no joy rides.. if you cant show me your serious your not getting in it to drive till its in your name, or you serioulsy convince and show me a bank check/cash that you are serious.. sorry thats just the rules...
PS.. I am not intrested in trades... I want the good ole dollar bill for this car, and not a civic and wheels and cash, nothing of that sort... I have other cars so none of that BS about winter and you will trade me a 4x4 to drive cause its better in winter.. If you read this far i think you can read above i dont drive it in weather so its obvious I already have a 4x4 i daily drive year round if im not in the m3... so no i dont need another car, or anything else..
Buyer will pick up the car, and if you are flying in to drive it home, i can arrange to get you from the airport, then to the bank to grab the title, and you can then drive it home or load on t trailer, or whatever... Or I can arrange with your shipping company to pick it up for delivery.. whatever you choose.. enjoy!!
******To note if buyer wants I have agentcy headers, resonated midpipe, and exhaust system for this car I just never installed.. If buyer would want these also I will let them go for 2000.00 extra the exhaust and midpipe alone sell for that new, the header is around 1100 dollars by itself new.. and my stuff has never been used or installed.... But these items are not included with the sale of this auction but can be added if the buyer wishes to purchase them from me upon pickup of car.. email/contact me and I can provide photos of them all..

Addressing the safety concerns of its customers, BMW Motorrad is co-developing a rider suit with Dainese to feature something that's much more common in automobiles: airbags.
Starting with Dainese's D-air Protect System, which is made up of inflatable protectors that deploy in 15 milliseconds, the two companies will integrate the technology into a BMW Motorrad brand, one-piece racing suit, the DoubleR RaceAir. Later a different, street-oriented airbag system that can be retrofitted to bikes will be offered to Beemer riders.
The DoubleR RaceAir is expected to be presented at the EICMA motorcycle show in Milan in November, after all required crash testing has been completed.

The recall of faulty airbag inflators supplied by Takata has exploded today to grow to seven automakers. In most cases, only models in certain high-humidity regions were affected because the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration found in its investigation that moisture played a roll in determining whether there would be a problem. However, some companies opted for national campaigns. The exact number of affected models for these campaigns isn't yet known at this time.
BMW is recalling an undisclosed number of 325i, 325Xi, 330i and 330Xi models from the 2001 through 2005 model years and the 2001-2006 model year versions of the 325Ci and 330Ci for the driver side and passenger side inflators. Only vehicles currently registered in Florida, Puerto Rico, Hawaii and the US Virgin Islands are covered under this recall.
Neither Chrysler's filing with NHTSA nor its press release list the specific models affected, but a company spokesperson told Autoblog that at this time it only covers the driver and passenger side inflators for the 2006 Dodge Charger in Florida, Puerto Rico, Hawaii and the US Virgin Islands

Apple unveiled details about its long-awaited Apple Watch yesterday and we now know that the $349, er, watch will be released to the public early next year. Amid the millions of features the watch has is the ability to provide real-time information on the battery charge level in a BMW i3 or i8 plug-in vehicle. The watches can also help locate the vehicles if, say, they're parked in a crowded lot. Because so many of us lose our Bimmers on a daily basis. BMW spokesman Dave Buchko confirmed the integration of the Bimmer-centric features on Apple Watch to AutoblogGreen, and noted that the product will let users monitor heating and air-conditioning as well as remotely unlocking the car. "This latest device has the potential to change how owners interact with their BMW, paving the way for a new level of personalization and immediacy," Buchko said. The new wrist-based connection allows for a nice bit of exposure for the German company's new i series. As of the end of last month, BMW had sold 2,082 i3 battery-electric vehicles in the US since starting domestic sales in May. It also sold nine of i8 plug-in hybrids in August, the first partial month for US sales.
