I have a BMW Z3 thats wanting a new home. I love the car, but it is a constant struggle between me and my two teenage boys who are dying to drive it. Time to sell before they can. It is 13 years old, so there're little tidbits that are wrong with it. The doors unlock, but you have to turn the key a hundred times to get it to work. I use the trunk lock as it locks and unlocks the doors when you lock or unlock the trunk. The driver seat is a little worn, but it is not ripped. There is a ding on the trunk lid. The center console speaker is going out.There are minor interior deficiencies, but WELL within the criteria for a 13 year old car. The oil level light comes on, then goes off, so I bought a sensor to fix the problem, see below.
Now the good news:
It has the following recently installed: Windshield (wasnt broken, just pitted), alternator and battery, slot and drilled rotors and brake set on front and back, new guibo (that is the european version of a universal joint, services are up to date with only synthetic oils, and the rear shocks have been replaced. The dreaded valve cover leak that is common for these cars has been fixed, tires are about 70% if not more, A/C is cold, and all filters have been changed (including fuel).This car looks great, drives great and wherever you go, I promise, someone will tell you how cool your car looks. The paint is red, but with a hint of orange and for some reason (which really baffeled but surprised me gleefully) people comment on it all the time.
Parts come with this car as well: Input and output exhaust sensors, oil level sensor, front struts, front and rear wheel bearings, carrier bearing, assorted interior buttons, logo's, and BMW service reset tool. Besides the Oil Level sensor, none of these parts are bad, I just started collecting parts the internet said was common to go out. So you get a head start on any parts. The car also comes with a cover for when the top is retracted.
I am selling this car with NO WARRANTY implied or suggested, is sold (as is) and being sold locally (I reserve to end the auction early unless the buy it now has been used). I try my best to be as honest and upfront with my auctions and I appreciate you doing the same. Ask any question and I will tell you everything you need. This car has ZERO rust!! This IS a southern car.
I will help in the delivery up to 50 miles or to the knoxville, tn station where a pick-up for delivery can occur. Or if you want it picked up at my home I will help in that to. If you are local, feel free to come by and drive the car to see how amazing and happy you'll be. Thank You and happy bidding!
Also: I am selling this car WELL BELOW what its worth. I have a home project that I want to start and I cant do that until this is sold.

BMW starts Apple-like "Genius" program to explain tech
Wed, 20 Feb 2013Even workaday cars are so capable now that even most auto scribes don't truly find out about a car's limits until a professional driver shows them what they are. It's the same with a vehicle's suite of features and the technology inside - there's so much of it that most people will have no idea what their cars can offer them. BMW is the latest company to make a personal effort to change that, introducing "young, tech-savvy employees" to dealerships as part of its "BMW Genius Everywhere" initiative.
Having no part in the actual sale of a vehicle, a BMW Genius is present on the showroom floor only to answer questions about the company's products and their features. If the customer decides to buy, he is transferred to a salesperson. A pilot program in the UK proved its effectiveness, it will now be rolled out across Europe and then come to the United States toward the end of this year in time for the launch of the i3. Details are still being worked out, but each BMW dealer will have at least one Genius.
For assistance that doesn't require visiting the auto mall, BMW is also putting vehicle and feature tutorials on its US website to "make our knowledge about our brand more interesting and more accessible to the consumer." They will appear online sometime in the latter half of the year, and will also be bundled into iPhone and iPad apps.
BMW reclaims US luxury sales crown from Mercedes
Tue, Jan 6 2015The numbers, they are in: BMW has reclaimed the luxury-sales crown from Mercedes by a margin of 9,347 cars. Mercedes donned the king's headgear in 2013 after a strong final quarter of 2013 when the new CLA and S-Class poured out of dealerships. This year, led by the 3 Series/4 Series and X5, BMW sold 339,738 units – a 9.8-percent increase year-on-year. Mercedes, led by the C-Class and M-Class, saw its sales go up by 5.7 percent to 330,391 units. We'll have to wait a bit to see if there's another registrations-vs-sales challenge as in 2012, when BMW was anointed US luxury ruler. Behind them, a dark horse named Lexus nudged closer to the leading Teutons, selling 311,389 cars. The Japanese luxury automaker also had the biggest gain among the top three, its sales rising by 13.7 percent compared to 2013. Audi had the biggest sales of anyone among the top five, though, with a 15.2-percent gain to 182,011, which moved it a spot ahead of Cadillac; the Wreath-and-Crest brand dropped 6.5 percent to 170,750. Acura (167,843), Infiniti (117,300), and Lincoln (94,474) took the final positions. Speaking of Lincoln, sales at the once-mighty luxury marque stand as the mightiest jump of any on this list, up 15.6 percent. That's the power of Matthew McConaughey... and better cars and a new crossover, sure. So now that we're back to Round One of 2015, in case no one else has said it yet: "Ok, fight!"
Alex Zanardi back in the driver's seat with BMW
Tue, 21 Jan 2014If there's ever been an inspirational story in the pantheon of motor racing history, surely it's that of Alessandro Zanardi. The Italian driver worked his way up the motor racing ladder, making it into Formula One and winning two CART championships for Chip Ganassi Racing back before the series re-merged into IndyCars. Tragedy struck in 2001 when he lost both his legs in a crash at the Lausitzring in Germany, but rather than accept his fate, Alex pushed on. Fitted with prosthetic limbs, he learned to drive a racing car with hand controls and got back in the driver's seat.
Zanardi drove for BMW in the European Touring Car Championship and then in the World Touring Car Championship that replaced it, landing on the podium several times despite his physical disadvantage. He left racing in 2009 to train for the Paralympics, winning two gold medals in London, but Alex apparently couldn't shake the racing bug. BMW modified one of its M3 DTM racers with hand controls for him to test later that year. And now he's returning to motor racing full time.
BMW has just announced that Zanardi will be driving a Z4 GT3 in the Blancpain Sprint Series, the successor to the FIA GT Series and short-distance counterpart to the Blancpain Endurance Series. The car has been modified with the hand controls the Bavarian automaker's racing department fitted to the aforementioned M3 DTM and will be fielded by the ROAL Motorsport team with which Alex challenged for the European Touring Car Championship last decade.
