I am selling my BMW Z3. It has been my daily driver for the last 4 years. The car has a clean title. Current emissions good through September. 166,571 on the odometer.

The good:

The car runs. It has been driven every day, and has never left me stranded. It also runs at the proper temperature, Always. Strong reliable engine. Car is straight, never had a major accident. No rust. Heat works. AC works. Oil change is current.

The bad:

Check engine light came on about 5 months ago. It's not running any different than usual. Had the code read and it's catalytic related. So it either needs a need catalytic converter, or the sensors replaced. The ABS light is on. It was on when I bought it 4 years ago. Starter teeth worn out and needs replacing sooner or later(Starts the first time sometimes, sometimes takes 3 tries to start). Needs mass air flow sensor. Needs new strut mounts. The pictures look decent, but I'm a good photographer. The car has a lot of cosmetic issues. Front bumper has paint chips and cracks. Rear bumper has a scuffed look. Sides and top have scratches and glue drips and scuffs, etc. Passenger mirror works, but is being held on by duct tape(I drove too close to a recycling bin and it knocked it off). Drivers side seat has a split in the leather. Console has some scratches and discoloration. Steering wheel has some scuffs and discoloration. Needs a new amp hooked up for the stereo to work(other amp conked out). The car needs tires.

What else:

I think the brakes are still pretty decent. Top isn't ripped and doesn't leak. The head unit is nice with Bluetooth and iPhone hookup. Wheels are decent.

That's pretty much it. This is a private sale. I'll take cash, or we can meet at your bank and you can write me a cashiers check. Bill of sale required for my records. Please Feel free to message me with any questions you may have, or to schedule a test drive. I live and work in Roswell, GA.

Thank you.

BMW X2 in the works?

Thu, 20 Mar 2014

BMW could bring yet another niche-busting product to the market in 2017 if a report form a forum is to be believed. According to the BMW X1 Forum of Bimmerpost, 2017 could see the debut of the BMW X2. Yes, X2.
Allegedly, this car will ride on the UKL platform, which is slated to underpin both the next-generation Mini Countryman and BMW X1. The X2, though, will play the role occupied by the X6 relative to the X5 - that means it'll be the same basic vehicle with a more sporting (i.e. less practical) roofline. The denizens of the forum claim the X2 will only be offered with xDrive all-wheel drive, and unlike the X6 and soon-to-arrive X4, it will be available in both three and five-door variants.
We reached out to BMW for comment, and got the typical "There's no plans as of right now" statement, although spokesman Dave Buchko did add that, "It's fun to speculate."

Toyota passes BMW as most valuable car brand

Tue, 21 May 2013

An annual market study of the strongest brands across various industries has seen Toyota leapfrog BMW as the world's most valuable automotive brand. Toyota's 2013 brand value rose to $24.5 billion, up 12 percent versus 2012 numbers according to market research company Millward Brown's BrandZ Top 100 Most Valuable Global Brands list. BMW's value fell slightly; down by 2 percent to a total of $24 billion.
Mercedes-Benz finished in third place in the automotive category, up 11 percent from 2012 for a valuation of $18 billion. Honda ($12.4 billion, down 2 percent) and Nissan ($10.2 billion, up 3 percent) rounded out the top five for the category. Volkswagen was the only other auto brand that finished in the top 100 overall, in 100th place. Audi made the greatest percentage gain over 2012, up 18 percent to $5.5 billion, but finished outside of the top 100.
Technology companies dominated the overall list, with Apple, Google and IBM ranking one through three. Couture brand Prada was 2013's biggest gainer, rising by 63 percent over 2012.

BMW celebrates 30 years of M5 with 600-hp super sedan

Wed, 07 May 2014

It's been 30 years since BMW rolled out the first M5, and while displacement and cylinder count may have fluctuated over those past three decades, output has only increased. The first-generation E28 M5 packed a 3.5-liter inline-six with 252 horsepower and 243 lb-ft of torque. The second-gen E34 model that followed added an extra 100 cc (and later 200 more) to produce 310 hp and 266 lb-ft. The E39 followed with a 4.9-liter V8 churning out 394 hp and 369 lb-ft, replaced by the award-winning 5.0-liter V10 in the E60 with its 500 hp and 380 lb-ft before BMW rolled out the latest model with a 4.4-liter V8, its twin turbos making up for the two dropped cylinders and 600 cc of displacement to produce 560 hp and 502 lb-ft of torque. But even that's being left in the dust by the new special edition you see here.
The 30th Anniversary Edition BMW M5 packs that same 4.4-liter twin-turbo V8, but cranks the output up to a nice, round 600 horsepower and a solid 516 lb-ft of torque to go with it. That makes it more powerful, not only than any M5 that's come before it, but also any of its rivals. The Jaguar XFR-S and Audi RS6 Avant (the latter only available as a wagon and not in North America) both lag behind this ultimate of Ultimate Driving Machines; only the Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG trumps it on torque (but not on power), with 531 lb-ft in stock form and 590 in the S-Model.
As a result, the 0-60 time drops from a quoted 4.2 seconds in the stock M5 to a scant 3.7 in the 30th Anniversary edition (just one tick behind that twistier E63 S). The special M5 also comes with the Competition Package as standard, as well as a dedicated control module for the Active M Differential, a special Frozen Dark Silver matte finish, 20-inch alloys and black chrome badges. Special badges abound inside as well, where you'll also find black leather and Alcantara upholstery and aluminum trim. There'll even be a dedicated one-day course offered to owners at The Thermal Club in Palm Springs, CA, to further sweeten the deal.
