So car fax will show two owners but its always technically been me. New paint this summer, new near everything, all inspections to date, lots of new!!"

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..

Zombie cars roundup: Dodge has sold 3 new Vipers this year

Thu, Jan 6 2022

Car models come and go, but as revealed by monthly sales data, once a car is discontinued, it doesn't just disappear instantly. And in the case of some models, vanishing into obscurity can be a slow, tedious process. That's the case with the 12 cars we have here. All of them have been discontinued, but car companies keep racking up "new" sales with them. There are actually more discontinued cars that are still registering new sales than what we decided to include here. We kept this list to the oldest or otherwise most interesting vehicles still being sold as new, including a supercar. We'll run the list in alphabetical order, starting with *drumroll* ... BMW 6 Series: 55 total sales BMW quietly removed the 6 Series from the U.S. market during the 2019 model year. It had been available in three configurations, a hardtop coupe, a convertible and a sleek four-door coupe-like shape.   BMW i8: 18 total sales We've always had a soft spot for the BMW i8, despite the fact that it never quite fit into a particular category. It was sporty, but nowhere near as fast as similarly-priced competitors. It looked very high-tech and boasted a unique carbon fiber chassis design and a plug-in hybrid powertrain, but wasn't really designed for maximum efficiency or maximum performance. Still, the in-betweener was very cool to look at and drive, and 18 buyers took one home over the course of 2021.   Chevy Impala: 750 total sales The Impala represented classic American tastes at a time when American tastes were shifting away from soft-riding sedans with big interior room and trunk space and into higher-riding crossovers. A total of 750 sales were inked last year.   Chrysler 200: 15 total sales The Chrysler 200 was actually a pretty nice sedan, with good looks and decent driving dynamics let down by a lack of roominess, particularly in the back seat. Of course, as we said regarding the Chevy Impala, the number of Americans in the market for sedans is rapidly winding down, and other automakers are following Chrysler's footsteps in canceling their slow-selling four-doors. Even if Chrysler never really found its footing in the ultra-competitive midsize sedan segment, apparently dealerships have a few leftover 2017 200s floating around. And for some reason, 15 buyers decided to sign the dotted line to take one of these aging sedans home last year.

In-demand BMW i8 deliveries start in June, and it's more efficient than we thought

Thu, Mar 13 2014

Memo to Elon Musk: objects in the rear-view mirror may be closer than they appear. In this case, it's a couple of plug-in BMWs. And they represent the closest thing to a true competitor for Musk and the Tesla Motors electric vehicles. The German automaker re-confirmed that demand for its upcoming i8 plug-in hybrid will exceed the initial supply batch, though BMW didn't release any specific numbers, Reuters says. BMW will start production next month with deliveries commencing in June for the 362-horsepower i8. The news is consistent with a November estimate from BMW that indicated that the first year of i8s were essentially spoken for in advance. We learned in late January that the number of i3 battery-electric vehicles imported to the US won't meet demand during that vehicle's first year of sales either. Here's the thing: all these people were interested in the i8 when BMW said the car got the equivalent of 94 miles per gallon. Turns out, those calculations were a bit off. Reuters also notes that the new numbers show the i8 gets 112 MPGe. That's on the lenient European cycle, but if anyone was holding out for an i8 with triple-figure fuel economy, your time (to get on the waiting list) has come.Motley Fool proposed late last month that BMW is positioned to be Tesla's only real competition when it comes to high-performance plug-in vehicles. The reasoning was that the BMW plug-ins, like the Teslas, are being built from scratch and don't just have EV powertrains dropped into existing vehicle platforms. Whether or not the competition is truly a two-team race is something we're not sure is completely decided yet, but we know it'll be fun to watch unfold either way. Want proof?

2014 BMW i3

Mon, 15 Jul 2013

A Purer Than Ever Sort Of Driving Pleasure
This all started back in 2007 when the megacity urbanization trend hit full stride and BMW began brainstorming the 2020 future of mobility. The product was thus originally called the BMW MegaCity vehicle. Then the 'i' division of BMW was officially born in 2011, and we have since been exposed to various "leaked" images and official prototype unveilings of both this i3 and the i8 eco sports car. The latter (called i12 in the halls of Munich) was originally called the Concept Vision Efficient Dynamics and presented as a diesel-hybrid.
The time is now upon us for the market launch of the plug-in i3 (called i01 internally). The wider motoring public already has its opinions and BMW is listening to all of them, so there's a bundle of nerves around these limited drives of the i3 for a select few members of the media, Autoblog included. We came to an airfield outside of Munich and were handed an i3 test car to drive around a set course filled with blue- and white-striped cones. BMW tech experts were everywhere and some of the discussions around the various technical displays even got a little heated.
