1999 BMW M3 coupe
-Techno Violet exterior on Dove Gray leather interior.
-Fully loaded. 
-Sport package.
-Power Vader seats.
-5spd manual trans.
-78,xxx original miles.
-All original.
-Meticulously maintained.
-Only serviced using OEM BMW parts, including original BMW motor oil since new.
-Only 93octane Super petrol at the pump.
-Never modified or abused.
-Clean and clear history and title.

Mechanicals:
-The car starts on the first turn of the key every time.  Idles perfectly steady with no problems whatsoever.  The motor pulls extremely strong throughout the entire RPM range with full power and proper compression in all six cylinders.
-OEM clutch that feels and performs like new.  Transmission shifts perfectly throughout all gears with a tight and precise throw.  Absolutely no slipping, grinding, crunching, or problems of any kind. 
-Steering and suspension both feel excellent and leave the driver with full confidence.  Very sporty with tight and precise mannerism, although retaining that world renown BMW comfort on those longer drives.    
-Brakes are all newer and work flawlessly.  Hand brake also locks extremely tight.
-All electronics work as they should.  Rare powered Vader seats, original option.  The sought after OEM+ CD43 radio/headunit is installed, however the original tape deck radio is included.  The original CD changer is also still in the trunk and works as it should. 
-All lighting work as they should with no flaws.
-A/C blows ice cold on the hottest of days.  The heat also works flawlessly.  Perfect pixels and fully functioning climate control unit (very common problem with this model is a faulty climate control unit).
-Absolutely no warning lights or CEL on the dash cluster.

Cosmetics:
-Beautiful original Techno Violet paint in immaculate condition.  Before owning this ///M3 the thought of a purple car would have made me cringe, however I must say in full honesty that this is one of the cleanest, classiest, and coolest colors I have ever seen on any car.  The photos do not do justice for the condition of this car's paint, I welcome any serious buyers to come see for yourself.
-All plastic trim is in great shape and still deep black in color with minimal fading.
-All glass is original and flawless.
-The Dove Gray leather interior compliments the Techno Violet paint very well creating a subtle, yet extremely attractive color combination.  The carpets, door panels, and headliner are all in excellent condition with no stains, rips, or tears of any kind.  The dash is excellent as well with no cracks or defects of any kind.  The powered leather Vader seats are in great shape for their age, although they are not in "new" condition.  They are, however, extremely presentable and very in respectable shape giving their age and the nature of such a light color.  There are no stains, rips, tears, or holes in any of the seats.  The rear seats and passenger front seat are a solid 9.5/10 -- however the driver's seat is an 8/10 due to expected and common wear on the bolsters.  In all honesty, a simple "Leatherique" treatment would really bring the Vader seats up to par with the rest of the car.  In no way, shape, or form is any upholstery work required.  Unfortunately I am my own worst critic, but in reality almost everyone who sees the interior in person raves about its condition.
-The original spare tire, jack, tool kit, and entire trunk are in excellent, unmolested condition.
-The engine bay is extremely clean and appears to have been detailed regularly since new.  All plastics and rubber hoses are in excellent shape and are still a very deep black in color.  All fluid reservoirs are clean and presentable with no leakage.  
-Absolutely no leaking fluids anywhere.

Upgrades:
-Stainless steel STROMUNG exhaust.  Super high quality made in Germany and retails for $700 USD.  Looks, sounds, and performs incredible.  In my opinion, the best made and best sounding exhausts for the E36 ///M3.
-New black leather shift boot with tri-colored ///M stitching.
-OEM BMW ZHP weighted shift knob.
-OEM BMW CD43 headunit. 
-High quality aFe air intake which also improves sound and performance.

Disclaimer:
Despite being a meticulously maintained and low mileage example of this German built sport coupe, it is a used 1999 model year ///M3 with 78,xxx miles.  For its age, the car is immaculate, but one cannot expect a brand new car.  It is not without very minor flaws and blemishes, which are inevitable and should be expected on a vehicle that is 14+ years old.  Mechanically the car is without fault, and it is all up to date on any and all services.  Regular care and maintenance is required to keep this car in perfect working order.  Car is sold as-is, where-is.  No warranty is express or implied.  I encourage all interested parties to come feel, see, and hear this beautiful machine in person.

Feel free to email with any questions or concerns.  Good luck bidding!

A few detail I forgot to mention: (1)-The car was bought new in California, and remained in that beautiful warm and dry climate until 2008 where it was purchased in New York. It has always been garaged when not in use since it has been in NY. (2)-Absolutely NO RUST anywhere on this car. Structurally sound and solid. (3)-The original DSII wheels have been refinished in a Nogaro Silver color which compliments the car's color combination perfectly. The wheels are clean, cool, and beautiful. (4)-All four tires are like-new. Goodyear Eagle GT with 225/45 in the front and 245/40 in the rear. Very reliable, grippy, and comfortable tires with no road noise.

I also forgot to mention that the cooling system has been serviced very recently, including a brand new radiator, with receipts.

BMW bringing special Horse Edition 7 Series to Beijing

Thu, 10 Apr 2014

The Beijing Motor Show is just a couple of weeks away, and BMW wouldn't miss out on the opportunity to show off its latest wares to one of its most vital markets. So when the doors open in Beijing, BMW will showcase the new 2 Series Active Tourer, 2 Series Coupe, M3 and M4, 4 Series Gran Coupe and X4. It will also introduce the i3 and i8 to China for the first time. But those are all models we've seen already. What's new is... wait for it... the 7 Series Horse Edition.
Not celebrating horses so much as the Year of the Horse, this special edition 7 Series is based on the long-wheelbase model and comes with all manner of M equipment packages, a special paint job from BMW Individual and unique touches inside and out. BMW isn't saying which engine it features, but it sells the series in China in 730Li, 740Li, 750Li, 760Li and ActiveHybrid forms, with rear- or all-wheel drive. Given that the one pictured is wearing an xDrive badge, it would have to be either the 740Li or 750Li, but buyers will presumably be able to order it in whichever spec they desire.
While it may not be as exciting as the 9 Series concept BMW is rumored to have lined up for the Beijing show as well, you can bet that the Bavarian automaker will find plenty of buyers for this extra-special, extra-Chinese, extra-equestrian luxury sedan, and command a healthy premium from each and every one of them.

BMW 1 Series sedan interior revealed

Sun, 09 Nov 2014

The next BMW 1 Series Sedan has made another appearance following our last peek at it in September, and this time, the gallery of images even reveals part of the new car's interior.
Of course, if these images prove anything, it's that manufacturers take camouflage of the interior just as seriously as they do the exterior. We can see in these images a fairly simple cabin, with what looks like a fixed central display. It's quite small, although the housing itself is rather large, so we could be looking at a more basic form of iDrive rather than the full-featured set. Overall, though, this cabin more or less confirms that the 1 Series Sedan will fit in with the rest of the BMW family quite nicely.
Outside of the interior images, though, there isn't a lot of new stuff revealed by these images. As for when we'll see both the interior and exterior fully undisguised, our spies continue pointing to a 2016 debut with a 2017 on-sale date.

BMW releases complete pricing info on M3 and M4

Mon, 31 Mar 2014

When BMW unveiled the M3 and M4 at the Detroit Auto Show back in January, we told you that the new sportsters were starting at $62,000 and $64,200, respectively. That leaked info, though, only told a small part of the story for the new M cars. Now, we have the complete pricing sheet on the new coupe and sedan, direct from BMW.
The pricing intel that we had at the time was correct - prices start at $62,000 for four doors and $64,200 for two. Those prices don't include the $925 destination charge. Potential customers should also plan on spending an extra $550, as seven of the eight paint options are of the metallic variety. BMW's trademark Alpine White is the only no-cost paint option.
As for the cabin, customers will, interestingly, have the choice of a cloth/leather combination as standard. That's in addition to the standard suite of leather options. There are also extended leather and full leather options, for $950 and $3,500, respectively. There are three option packages available, covering all the extra goodies for the M3 and M4.
