Supercharged E46 M3.
I am sad to sell my midnight blue M3. This car has undergone several track specific upgrades since i bought it 2 years ago when it was in stock condition. I fitten the ESS stage 1 supercharger 6 months ago. It makes 445hp at the crank, 385 at the wheels!!!! Other track upgrades include: A 4.1 BMW racing differential, really tightening the gear ratios for track. A full stainless exhaust system from headers back, which sounds incredible! (I have the stock muffler if it is too loud). A light flywheel & racing clutch system. An upgraded suspension kit (KW v2) with front and rear coilovers, camber plates and H&R sway bars, lowering the car 30mm and making it corner extremely well. Brake rotors have been updgraded to vented rotors. I have 2 sets of brake pads (street / track) Street pads (Hawk) are track rated anyway, and the track pads (performance friction) are incredible. They have had 2 days use and cost $500, but are too squeaky for the street. I currently have Federal SS winter tires fitted for my daily commute. However, I also have a set of 4 Hankook RS3s for the track costing $1200 last fall. They have had 3 days use. The car has been maintained by a BMW specialist mechanic and had routine brake fluid and oil changes after every track event. In the last 6 months I have had all 6 coils and spark plugs replaced. Also as preventative maintenance for the drivetrain, I had the rod bearings, center support bearing and guibo replaced. I have all receipts over the last 2 years. This car's mechanics are like new and is ready to race!! You are welcome to have it inspected by anyone. |

Cafe racer motorbikes storm Japan
Fri, 22 Nov 2013Japan may be best known, at least among motorcycle enthusiasts, for its sport bikes. But as we found at the Tokyo Motor Show this year, Japanese motorcycle manufacturers are capable of producing all kinds of motorbikes. And to our delight, that includes cafe racers.
Along with the myriad electric bikes, dirt bikes, crotch rockets and scooters, the halls of Tokyo's Big Site convention center this year were full of the retro-infused rides we love. Chief among them was the Bolt (shown above) which Yamaha exhibited alongside their various electric two-wheelers, sporting a delicious metallic blue paintjob, inverted handlebars and hanging mirrors, machined metal bits, blacked-out trim and saddle brown leatherwork.
Honda was also on hand with a new EX version of its '70s-style CB1100 retro roadster in sinister and low-key matte black. And this was our first chance to check out BMW Motorrad's new birthday present to its 90-year-old self, the R NineT, a model recently unveiled at the EICMA motorcycle show in Milan. But one of the most amusing retro rides we came across was the Honda Monkey Limited, a mini bike that makes the new 125cc Grom (which was displayed alongside it) look positively gigantic.
Alpina B3 Bi-Turbo burns all the midnight oil
Wed, 11 Sep 2013We've got good news and bad news for you, boys and girls, from the floor of the Frankfurt Motor Show. The good news is that the BMW M3 has come early, with a diesel, in wagon form - albeit with a different name. The bad news is that it will in all likelihood never make it to America. Which is a shame, because it's awesome.
What we're talking about, of course, is the new Alpina D3 Bi-Turbo. BMW's wickedly talented but lesser know stepchild has created a 3 Series with a 3.0-liter twin-turbo diesel six packing 345 horsepower and 516 pound-feet of torque. You - and by "you," we mean overseas buyers - can choose between sedan or wagon, as well as rear- or all-wheel drive. But the bottom line is a 4.6-second 0-62 time and a 173-mph top speed... from a diesel.
We scoped out the rear-drive wagon Alpina brought to the show, decked out in its signature blue. And you can, too, in the gallery of live shots above, along with the freshly assembled stock photos of both sedan and wagon versions in the gallery below.
2015 BMW X6
Mon, 13 Oct 2014Most everyone would agree that BMW offers a range of very attractive and well-proportioned coupes, sedans, crossovers and wagons. Yet there is one member of its family that has always struck us as a bit odd: the X6.
Proudly coined "The world's first Sports Activity Coupe" by its German maker, the X6 features a wedge-shaped body with a characteristic sloping roofline that appears to squash the heads of its second-row occupants. The crossover rides high off the ground, with a pronounced gap between its chassis and oversized wheel/tire package, capped by short overhangs on both ends. Although curious to the eyes, its overall styling is masculine, and its stance aggressive.
Whether you consider the X6 to be attractive or an eyesore - opinions seem about equally divided - there is nobody at BMW questioning its business model. As of today, the automaker has sold more than 260,000 copies of its five-door crossover, which is why it has flown us to Spartanburg, SC, to sample its second-generation 2015 BMW X6.
