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 and Samsung enter expanded battery agreement [w/video]

Fri, Jul 18 2014

What's good for the goose is good for the gander. In this case, the goose is BMW and the gander is Samsung. And their five-year plan has worked out well. The German automaker this week expanded its current agreement with the South Korean battery-making giant. BMW and Samsung SDI reached a memorandum of understanding for Samsung to keep making batteries for BMW's growing stable of i3 battery-electric and i8 plug-in hybrids as well as yet-to-be revealed hybrid models. No dollar amount or new time frame was revealed, but with BMW already moving about 5,400 i3 vehicles during the first six months of the year, there should be a substantial amount of funds changing hands. BMW started working with Samsung in 2009 when it began buying batteries for its Megacity electric vehicle from SB LiMotive, a 50-50 joint-venture between Samsung SDI and Bosch. Things have been looking up for Samsung since last August, when Tesla Motors decided to diversify its battery supply chain by branching out beyond Panasonic and buying some of its lithium-ion batteries from Samsung. Feel free to check out the Samsung-Bimmer press release, along with a video report, below. BMW Group and Samsung SDI expand partnership BMW Group and Samsung SDI expand partnership: Signing of a memorandum of understanding for delivery of further battery cells in signing of MoU for delivery of further battery cells Seoul. The BMW Group and Samsung SDI plan to expand their supply relationship for battery cells for electro-mobility. The two companies signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to this effect today in Seoul. Samsung SDI will supply the BMW Group with battery cells for the BMW i3, BMW i8 and additional hybrid models over the coming years. The most important elements of the agreement are the increase in quantities delivered over the medium term, in response to growing demand for electro-mobility, and further technological development of battery cells. Dr. Klaus Draeger, member of the Board of Management of BMW AG, responsible for Purchasing and Supplier Network: "Our partnership with Samsung SDI is a good example of successful Korean-German cooperation on innovative technologies. The battery is a key component in every electric vehicle – since it basically determines the range and performance capabilities of the car.
