Beautiful example of a well-loved and continually maintained BMW E36 M3 5-speed manual, black interior with manual Vader seats in stellar condition. Car has been kept most entirely as BMW Motorsport intended, aside from a few minor changes. E36 M3s are getting much harder to find in decent, untouched form. This is your chance to pick up a modern classic at a fair price. 

Complete pre-purchase inspection done 5/15/2014 at European AutoHaus in Airway Heights including test results showing that all compression and leakdown are both well within healthy ranges for an S52. Engine pulls strong, transmission and clutch perform flawlessly.

Clean. Reliable. Fast...///M3

I have spent liberally maintaining this car to the standard to which it deserves and have all maintenance records since the commencement of my ownership in 2009. Over $9,000 invested in maintenance, repairs and quality upgrades under my five-year tenure alone. Car will also come included with a new, unistalled steering rack, reservoir, and line as these are commonly replaced around the 150-160K mark. Sale will also include the Bentley manual for this BMW which is invaluable in understanding the inner-workings and care of any M3.

Title is not in hand, I am currently waiting on a physical copy from the WA DOL which should arrive no later than then the end of August. An Affidavit/Release of Interest form will be signed and notarized for the winner as assurance until the title arrives. Once notarized, this form allows the buyer the legal right of ownership to a vehicle in lieu of physical title.


Please feel free to ask any and all questions regarding the car, if I don't know the answer I'll try my best to find someone who does. Thanks for taking a look!

BMW's new strategy: Electric everything

Mon, Sep 12 2016

Mercedes isn't the only car maker determined to beat Tesla before it gets huge. Sources speaking to German business daily Handelsblatt claim that BMW is in the midst of planning an executive shuffle that will also include a big shift in its electric vehicle strategy. While the company would still offer ground-up EV designs like the i3, the new strategy would greenlight electric versions of some of BMW's most important vehicles, including the 3-series sedan, X4 crossover, and iconic Mini. If the leak is accurate, management is likely to approve the change at the end of September. We've asked BMW for its take on the report, although it declined to comment to Handelsblatt. It wouldn't be shocking to see the Munich crew change tack, though. While Tesla has received hundreds of thousands of Model 3 pre-orders, i3 sales dropped in 2016 – the upscale (if oddly-shaped) EV just isn't as hot as it once was. If BMW electrifies some of its most popular cars, you wouldn't have to choose between a super-efficient, eco-friendly EV and the familiar designs of the brand's mainstream driving machines.The story originally appeared on Engadget, your guide to this connected life.Related Video: Featured Gallery Mini Vision Next 100 Concept View 38 Photos Green BMW MINI Electric Hybrid engadget

BMW M4 Convertible spied with naked top and trunk

Mon, 10 Feb 2014

Our trusty spy photographers have been at it again, snagging these first images of the forthcoming BMW M4 Convertible without camouflage on its retractable roof and rear deck. You'll recall that this is not the first time we've seen the followup to the M3 Convertible, but that the last batch of images we had were encumbered by a lot more camouflage - this car is virtually naked by comparison.
Not surprisingly, the M4 looks to share its folding hardtop design with the standard 4 Series droptop, and it should operate in a similar manner as well. It's no surprise, but it looks like BMW is going to try and make the transition from M4 Coupe to M4 Convertible as effortless as previous efforts converting the M3 to an M3 Convertible. That should mean that below the beltline, this car is nearly identical to the coupe we saw in Detroit.
As for the camo'd features on these spy photos, the hood, front fascia, rear fascia, quarter panels, side sills and mirrors have all been shown on the M4 Coupe, and don't really bear mentioning. There's been no word of just where the M4 Convertible will make its debut, although considering the lack of disguise on this car, Geneva seems like a likely destination.
