BODY:Recently painted in its original salmon silver (lachsilber) color. The paint is in excellent condition, virtually
all of the trim, badges, grills, window seals, wiper arms, antenna, etc were replaced with new OEM parts. All
original body panels with matching VIN. Absolutely no rust. The rear wing has no cracks. There are a few blemishes
I will try to describe. I bumped into a parked car and sustained a small dent to the drivers side front quarter
panel, about 4” across, and in the same area the front corner of the hood is bent, about 1a body shop.

INTERIOR:
The original cardinal red interior was completely replaced with an all black interior from a low mileage (50k) E30
M3. This included all of the door cards and handles, rear panels, front and rear seats. All of the seats have their
original leather and are in great condition no tears or splits with the normal patina and wear you would expect in
a car of this vintage. The dash was replaced and is in excellent condition with no cracks or fading but it does
have a small blemish, 2” long, above the glove box probably from someone forcing the latch open. the steering
wheel is the evo 3 type small size 270mm M-tech 2, the shifter is the Evo 3 type. The radio and speakers are all
original but not working because I don’t have the code. The sunroof works as it should. It has new OEM floor
mats. The carpet is in good condition with one small blemish in the back footwell which is under the floor mat.
WHEELS:
BBS style 5 17” with mirror polished split rim, silver centers and spokes, and gold plated hardware. They have a
few stone chips and very minimal scuffs on the rim. Overall excellent condition. Tires are Khumo Ecsta 21/40 ZR 17.
SUSPENSION:
Bilstein shocks and springs, lowered about an inch.
EXHAUST:
Strömung stainless steel
ENGINE:
The original S14, 2.3 L, 4 cylinder with matching VIN. Starts easily every time and runs strong with no issues.
Always used Mobil 1 full synthetic

2015 BMW 228i xDrive

Wed, Apr 22 2015

Has BMW lost its edge? The answer to that depends on what vehicle you're discussing. The company's products, while still quick and agile, are softer and more forgiving than they've ever been. And while this change may be worrying if we're talking about an M3 or an M5, is it necessarily a bad thing for more mainstream models? That's our question after a week behind the wheel of the BMW 228i xDrive, a vehicle that succeeds the beloved, driver-focused BMW 1 Series. In some ways this new car is a let-down, but in many other areas the new 2 Series is just plain better. The latter is particularly true if we're talking about the new sheet metal. While the 1 Series was a great source of compact, rear-drive entertainment, it wasn't a pretty car. The new 2 still isn't a stunner, but it benefits from BMW's latest design language. It looks wider and more muscular than the squat 1 Series, although certain elements, like the daylight opening and rear taillights, look like they were plucked right from the old car. Overall, BMW has crafted a more premium aesthetic for the exterior of its entry-level coupe. A weak spot for the 1er, the 2 Series cabin sports a similarly upscale redo. Like the last-gen car, the top of the dash is home to a master display for the iDrive system (a neutered, non-navigation version on our test car), while the lower half of the center stack is dedicated to analog controls for the HVAC and audio. The dash layout is similar to the 1 Series, but the execution feels more upscale. The trim around the radio and climate controls includes aluminum and gloss accents. The passenger side dash and center console ditch soft-touch plastic for authentic materials – our car uses real brushed aluminum, although piano black and wood are also available. As with all recent BMWs, the combination of the automatic gear lever, the knob and buttons of the iDrive system, and the toggle switch for the Driving Dynamics Control system mean there's a lot of clutter where the driver's right hand falls. What hasn't changed with the 2 Series is the excellent relationship between the driver and the primary controls. Our test car wears the Sport Line package, which does without BMW's obnoxious, too-large-diameter M Sport steering wheel. Instead, there's a thick-rimmed wheel with textured leather and red contrast stitching. It feels more natural than the oversized M wheel, while this car's large paddle shifters have a solid, well-damped action.

BMW may be planning AMG Black Series competitors

Fri, 01 Feb 2013

Word has it BMW has its heart set on giving the Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Black Series a run for its money in the US. According to BimmerBoost.com, the German automaker has been making more and more noise about offering a number of specialty models aimed specifically at enthusiasts. While at the Detroit Auto Show this year, the BMW PR machine revealed 2013 will be "an interesting year" and that buyers can expect one or two products aimed specifically at swiping buyers from the clutches of the C63 AMG Black Series. The news came courtesy of Automobile writer Marc Noordeloos' Twitter machine.
Noordeloos reportedly interviewed several executives familiar with the M models while in Detroit, and says the M division would like to offer hardware like the M3 CSL, GTS or CRT to buyers here in the States. That sounds great to us, but saying something doesn't make it true, and manufacturers rarely find it in their hearts to bring money-losing machines to our green shores. Still, that won't stop us from crossing our fingers.

There's no substitution for BMW's E30 Mmmmm3

Mon, 17 Jun 2013

If you told someone that you had a friend with a four-cylinder BMW who "would let me wash the car," and in exchange for the privilege then let you drive that clean BMW once around the block, your first question would probably be "What kind of BMW is this?" There's a chance you wouldn't be surprised once you found out the coupe in question was the E30 M3, a car our own Zach Bowman dubbed the "Mmmmm3."
Petrolicious talks to Gabor Mester about the car he fell in love with, a black version of the original "Munich mauler" that was owned by the parents of a high-school friend - oh, and Mester was also in high school when this washing and driving took place. When the original owners were ready to sell, Mestor was ready to buy, and he hasn't had a single regret about it since.
You can enjoy his story in his words in the video below.
