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 planning six-cylinder i9 hybrid to celebrate centenary?

Mon, 28 Jul 2014

On the prospect of a new BMW M1 based on the company's new i8 hybrid, the jury has been in and out so much that we can't even tell which way it's likely to go. However, the latest reports coming in from Germany suggest that BMW may have something else up its sleeves. Rather than make a conventional gas-powered version of the i8, Germany's Auto Motor und Sport says BMW will make a more powerful one.
Tentatively dubbed i9, the hybrid sports car is rumored to pack a six-cylinder internal-combustion engine instead of the i8's turbo three. Coupled to more potent electric motors, it would figure to produce even more than the 357 horsepower and 420 pound-feet of torque already on tap in the i8, with further weight reductions to offset the bulkier engine.
Auto Motor und Sport says the mooted model will be produced to celebrate the Bavarian automaker's 100th anniversary and eclipse the i8's performance, with a projected 0-60 run in under four seconds en-route to taking the gloves off to crunch the Autobahn in electric bliss. The new i flagship would be another member of the company's growing electrified family, joining the existing i3 hatchback, upcoming i5 minivan and possible i8 Spyder down the line.

BMW NA chief: US won't get enough i3 EVs to satisfy demand

Mon, Jan 27 2014

Nothing boosts the mystique of a new product like a "sold out" sign, and it appears likely that BMW will go that route with its first plug-in sold in the US. The German automaker won't likely import enough of its new i3 plug-in vehicles to meet US demand, Bloomberg News says, citing BMW North America chief Ludwig Willisch. Willisch added that once everything is up and running, the US will be the world's largest market for the i sub-brand of plug-in vehicles, which we know will also include the far racier i8 plug-in hybrid and likely other models as well. The i3 will arrive at US dealerships by the end of May and US dealers are investing $2.5 million in upgrades in part to accommodate the new i sub-brand. Last summer, BMW said its i3 would have a starting price of $41,350, not factoring in government tax credits nor the gas-powered range extender (which tacks on another $3,950). Both versions will be allowed into the high-occupancy-vehicle lanes, even with only one driver, in California though battery-powered version will get the unlimited white sticker (as opposed to limited green one). Check out our review of the i3 here.
