FOR SALE: 1999 BMW M Coupe, Imola Red exterior, black leather interior, manual transmission, sunroof. Clear New York State Motor Vehicle Title, with no liens. I am the third owner, and purchased the car in May 2008 with 117k miles. The car has been sparingly driven since I have owned it, and now shows 136,683 miles on the odometer. The car has BMW’s S52 engine: rated from the factory at 240 hp and 236 ft lbs of torque. (The car’s original owner added a Dinan ECU tune, which added 10 hp, and raised the top speed limit.) The car is in very good overall condition, and accelerates, brakes, and handles the way a BMW M Coupe should. Mechanically, the engine is very strong, and runs great, with no leaks, oil consumption, check engine or other warning lights displayed, and no abnormal noises. The clutch was recently replaced with a Sach oem unit, and works excellent. The oil has been regularly changed using BMW filters and fully synthetic oil. (either Mobil 1 or Amsoil) All fluids have been changed including transmission, brake, differential and coolant. The brakes work great with plenty of pad and rotor life remaining, and no pulsing or squealing. The tires are a set of matching Toyo Proxes 4, with plenty of tread life remaining. The rims are in very good condition. One has minor curb rash, but they are very good overall for the age of the car. The interior of the car is also very good. There are no cracks in the dashboard and no missing trim pieces. The seats are in very nice condition. The shifter knob needs replacement, and I will be including a lighted BMW ZHP replacement shift knob with the purchase of the car. The HVAC system works fine, except that the blower fan will only run on the high and low settings. The CD changer does not work. The glove compartment door sags like they all do and the catch straps need reattachment. Overall, the exterior of the car is in great condition. The paint is excellent, and there are few to no dents, dings, or scrapes. The car did sustain front end damage in a collision with a guardrail. The airbags did not deploy. A professional quality repair was completed, which included replacement of the bumper and bumper cover, hood, radiator, trim pieces including two new headlights, and repainting. The repair looks good, except that the bumper to hood gap is larger than it should be and the hood alignment is slightly off. Also included: car cover, manuals, extra keys. The pictures in this auction are current and of the car for sale. TERMS: There is no express or implied warranty offered with this car. Sold as is. Shipping is not offered, though I am willing to work with Buyer’s shipper to facilitate pickup of the vehicle. PAYMENT: $1000 PayPal payment due within 24 hours of the end of this auction. Balance due in cash, or certified funds acceptable to Seller at time of delivery and transfer of title. Vehicle is located in Syracuse, NY. Please feel free to ask any questions by e-mail, and I will try to answer them. Reason for Sale: buying newer BMW.

BMW patents strange three-cylinder pushrod engines, perhaps for cruiser motorcycle

Thu, Mar 12 2015

For decades BMW's motorcycles were easily identified by the two opposed cylinders sticking out of each side of the bike. While you can still find this layout on some of its products, these days the company also uses a variety of other layouts, depending on the model line. Based on European patents, there might even be a Bimmer in the ranks eventually with an absolutely bizarre-looking W3 configuration. BMW actually has two separate patents on these W3 designs, and both of them have the goal of cramming three cylinders into the space of a traditional V-twin. The first splays the cylinder out into a fan shape with pushrods operating the valves. The description submitted to the World Intellectual Property Organization describes the solution as, "The embodiment according to the invention represents an as of yet unknown type of W-3 reciprocating piston internal combustion engine having cylinder angles which can be largely freely sized." The other solution is more of a modification to the traditional V-twin. Two of the cylinders share a crankpin, but the third has its own and is positioned inside the angle of the V. It's a very odd-looking engine. With BMW's assertion that these designs are meant to fit in place of a traditional V-twin, Jalopnik speculates that they could be for a future cruiser from the company, and that would make sense. While brand offers a line of sport tourers with the K1600 line, it doesn't have something more classic to take on the likes of the Ducati Diavel. Creating such a weird engine would probably grab early interest from riders.

BMW i3 misses top Euro safety rating [w/videos]

Wed, 27 Nov 2013

The Euro NCAP just tested a recent batch of new cars including the 2014 BMW i3, and the EV Bimmer scored less-than-perfect results. Though not horrible, BMW's all-electric/range-extended i3 was given a four-star (out of five possible) crash rating due to concerns with front-occupant whiplash and side-impact protection.
Based on the crash results, the BMW provided suitable protection for occupants in the frontal, side barrier, pedestrian and child-seat tests, but the i3 was tripped up when it came to the more severe side pole test and the rear-impact test. The pole test showed protection to the chest of the test dummy was "weak," and the front seats only provided "marginal" protection against whiplash for front passengers. Scroll down to watch two videos released by the Euro NCAP of the i3 being tested.
