1998 BMW M3 sedan in ultra rare Techno Violet metallic over black leather. NO SUNROOF! You are looking at the very best M3 sedan anywhere, hands down. I bought the car from a fellow BMW enthusiast and BMW CCA member over ten years ago. I subsequently sold it to a friend/client who proceeded to invest over $50k in performance modifications including a complete Dinan S3 kit. All performance work was done at 59,200 miles in May 2003. I re-acquired the car and the reality is that I already have too many cars.

Dinan S3 includes

1. Dinan Supercharger

2. Dinan Throttle Body

3. Dinan Exhaust

4. Dinan Stage 3 suspension including Dinan/Koni shocks and Dinan springs

5. Dinan Front and rear strut and shock tower braces

HRE 547R wheel set with 18x8 and 18x9

Separately, a port and polish on the cylinder head was done to improve air flow. A custom aluminum radiator was also installed. VDO oil temperature, oil pressure, and supercharger boost gauge cluster sit below the on board computer.

Also installed are a Dinan fuel rail cover and engine cover, both in carbon fiber.

Brembo big brake kit, front and rear installed at 59,500 miles in June 2003.

Aftermarket Xenon headlights installed 69,960 miles 11/30/12.

This car as you can see in the pics, it is virtually showroom new. Never tracked or abused. The leather still is still soft and smells new as well. NO leaks!

No expense spared on maintenance. Frequent oil changes and all maintenance and performance work performed at Avus Autosport in Glendale, CA.

I doubt you will find another M3 sedan of this caliber anywhere. This car is for the most discriminating enthusiast. Words and pictures do not do this car justice.

This M3 is for the serious enthusiast. It currently sits in a climate controlled garage among other collectible cars. The price is firm. Please do not ask or offer a lower price. This M3 cannot be duplicated. I will keep it rather than take any less. The car is just incredible, one of the best all around cars I have ever experienced.

BMW confirms M4 DTM for next season

Tue, 20 Aug 2013

Fans of BMW performance had two events to keep an eye on this weekend: the reveal of the M4 Concept at Pebble Beach, and the efforts of the Bavarian automaker's DTM teams at the Nurburgring. What ties them together, however, is what BMW has in store for next year.
The German carmaker has confirmed that it's already working on a new M4 DTM to campaign in the highly-competitive touring car series starting next season. It didn't reveal any details, but we can expect the M4 to make the same jump to competition spec as the M3 did before it. And with some success, we might add: successive versions of the M3 have won 48 DTM races over the years, starting with the checkered flag which Harald Grohs claimed at Hockenheim in 1987 through to the same race which Augusto Farfus won earlier this year. After taking home the title for BMW in its first year back in DTM last season, Bruno Spengler also won at the Red Bull Ring in Austria two months ago, but the Bimmer teams seem to be having a bit of trouble defending its title against fresh assaults from Audi and Mercedes.
BMW undoubtedly hopes the new M4 DTM will help it turn another new leaf, and we're looking forward to seeing how it all shapes up. Read more in the press release below.

BMW says current M3 sold out, no new AWD M models planned

Mon, 06 May 2013

Car and Driver asked the head of BMW M, Friedrich Nitschke, a few questions about what the go-fast division had in mind for the future, and was rewarded with some enlightening answers. The best news to purist ears is that Nitschke said customers don't want all-wheel drive on their M cars, so it's the rear wheels alone that will propel new product into the future. If you want both an M badge and four driven wheels, it's the X5 M, X6 M and M Performance models you're looking for in the catalog.
"Mixed bag" is the phrase you're looking for regarding the other answers. Nitschke said that future M engines "at the core of their architecture" would "be closer to BMW AG engines" that are optimized for M cars, instead of following in the line of unique marvels like the V10 and naturally aspirated V8. They will keep the high redlines, however, with Nitschke saying "there is room beyond" the 7,000 rpm mark in BMW's current V8 turbos.
Managing weight will keep the same priority for M that it is for every other brand, so electrically assisted power steering is coming, as is an "unconventional" materials mix. At the smaller end of the M scale, Nitschke described three-cylinder engines as "attractive," saying that the brand can produce more than 310 horsepower from a three-pot.
