-1995 BMW M3-

3.0L OBD1 w/5 spd manual

The Good:

Black Vader seats in excellent condition, sunroof, cd, A/C, power windows, everything works. 

It has Koni adjustable shocks on all four corners.

It has been fitted with 255's in the rear and 225's in the front on E46 M3 wheels.(Stock 95 M3's came with 235's on all four) The rear fenders have been rolled to fit the tires, and I have had adjustable rear control arms installed to correct the stance. It looks great.

I also rebuilt the VANOS system using the Dr. Vanos kit recently.

The not so good, but not bad:

The brake pad wear indicator light is on, I cant figure out why, and I don't really care. Pads are fine.

The heater core may be about to leak, I can smell coolant occasionally through heater vents. No overheating problems, no coolant leaks as of yet.

Power steering pump has a slow leak, but still works.

The Carfax shows a fender bender, but I have never been able to find any damage other than a scuffed front clip. Other than that the car is beautiful, and drives great.

 

I looked for a long time to find this car. It is in great shape for an 18 yr old car. It is very tight, no wobbles, no funny noises. My plan was to do an LS1 swap, and I wanted to start with a good platform, however I just can't bring myself to tear a perfectly good drivetrain out of this car.

This car is for sale locally, so I reserve the right to end the auction early. I will not ship the vehicle anywhere, so don't ask. I will not cash checks for foreign princes or anybody else. I am going to require a $500 deposit via Paypal, and the rest in cash when the vehicle is picked up.

Mazda CX-5 named Japan's Car of The Year, Subaru BR-Z wins "Special Award"

Mon, 03 Dec 2012

The Mazda CX-5 stamped its Kodo design and SkyActiv technology authority all over the Japan Car of the Year awards, taking the top prize ahead of the Subaru BRZ/Toyota GT 86. It is Mazda's second victory in the last ten years, the 2005 MX-5 claiming the same trophy, and the fourth time the Hiroshima company has won.
The award is decided by 60 local "automotive experts and journalists," and open to any passenger car released in Japan from November 1, 2011 to October 31, 2012 that has sold more than 500 units. Each judge gets 25 votes, his or her top vote getting 10 points, the rest of the points being spread among the judge's choice for the next best four cars.
The second-place getters were the Toyobaru twins with 318 votes, the surprise being they didn't beat or get any closer to the crossover. The Subaru BRZ did claw some mojo back, earning the Special Award given to cars that have made "an exceptional impact." The BMW 3 Series was third overall and won the Import Car of the Year award with plenty of room between it and the second place Range Rover Evoque.

2015 BMW 2 Series Convertible will flip its lid for $38,850

Tue, 09 Sep 2014



For the most part, they look almost identical to their coupe versions, except that they now boast an electrically folding soft top.
BMW is dropping the top of the 2 Series in early 2015 in the US with convertible versions of the 228i and M235i. They'll make their world debut at the Paris Motor Show later this year and will show their faces on this side of the pond at the 2014 Los Angeles International Auto Show.

Recharge Wrap-up: BMW i3 Super Bowl ad, Tesla updates backup camera

Sat, Jan 17 2015

For the fourth year in a row, fuel economy is the biggest factor in buying a new vehicle. A new report from JD Power and Associates found that, despite cheaper gas, customers still sought out fuel-sipping cars. 14 percent of survey responders cited mileage as the biggest concern when shopping for a new car, and the second most important reason to reject a vehicle. The biggest deal-breaker, though, when it comes to buying a new car is much more superficial: 30 percent of shoppers cite appearance as the main reason to avoid buying a particular vehicle. Read more at Automotive News, or in the press release below. Tesla's 6.1 Firmware update for the Model S makes maneuvering the car in reverse a bit easier. The update includes reverse guiding lines for the rear-view camera when backing up. Combined with the parking sensors, the new lines in the display make it easier to place the car into parking spots by showing where the car will be positioned based on the angle of the steering wheel. Two white lines curve with the steering to show where the car is going. Check it out in the video below or read more at Teslarati. BMW will air a new ad for the i3 during Super Bowl XLIX. The 60-second commercial will play during the first quarter of the game on Sunday, February 1. BMW didn't give the whole idea behind the TV spot away, but did hint at the concept behind the ad. "Big ideas like the BMW i3 take a little getting used to, and the creative idea surrounding our spot will play on this analogy," says BMW's Trudy Hardy. Despite Cheap Gas, Fuel Efficiency Still a Primary Concern Exterior Look/Design Top Reason Buyers Don't Even Consider a Vehicle WESTLAKE VILLAGE, Calif.: 14 January 2015 - Despite gas prices falling to their lowest levels since 2010, fuel economy-for a fourth consecutive year-remains the most influential factor among the majority of new-vehicle buyers in determining which vehicle they select, according to the J.D. Power 2015 U.S. Avoider StudySM released today. The study, now in its 12th year, examines the reasons consumers purchase, reject or do not consider-or avoid-particular models when shopping for a new vehicle. According to the study, 14 percent of new-vehicle owners cite gas mileage as the most influential reason for selecting the vehicle they ultimately purchased. At the segment level, gas mileage is the primary purchase reason among buyers of compact, small and midsize cars and compact MPVs.
