PICTURES ON REQUEST. 

EXTERIOR
Color is Dakar Yellow. The body is straight and in great condition. New tires. As far as I can tell, the front bumper was repainted. The very bottom of the bumper is torn from catching on a parking lot stop. According to carfax, there was an accident in 2006. I can say with certainty it was a minor accident, the chassis was never damaged. Mechanics are welcome to confirm.

INTERIOR:
Black Nappa Leather/Cloth seats.  Both front/back seats are in good condition, leather is still soft and not excessively worn like most E46 M3s.  There are some cosmetic issues.  The rear side panels are starting to peel. One side has glue stains in a failed attempt to repair it. The door seals should have felt on them, but it's come off. 

ENGINE:
3.2l 333HP Inline 6 cylinder engine with 6 speed SMG transmission. No clutch pedal. Car was salvaged in 2008 out of San Diego because the engine sucked up water and slightly bent a rod. We chose to swap it with a 2005 S54 motor. 2004 and later engines were updated to fix the rod bearing issues. The engine has 5,412 miles less than the chassis.  Chassis = 66,131 miles, Engine = 60,719  It's reliable and runs great, no codes.  Video of engine running coming soon!

TITLE:
Salvage Title.
  It's important to note the car was not salvaged due to the accident in 2006, it was salvaged in 2008 for engine damage.  It was driven through a puddle, sucked up water and damaged the motor.  Engine was replaced and it now runs great.  Please feel free to bring a mechanic for inspection.  Also, I'm listing this car for a friend.  He has title in hand, and will be handed over upon payment.

2015 BMW i8: Autoblog Technology of the Year finalist

Wed, 19 Nov 2014


Traditionally, nominations for the Autoblog Technology of the Year award are earned for specific developments - a new-think powertrain, a uniquely developed material, a groundbreaking smartphone app, or what have you. In the case of BMW's marvelous i8, it so bristles with novel applied sciences and fresh features that we broke with tradition and nominated the entire car.
We just couldn't help ourselves. Oh, we could've focused on the i8's carbon-fiber monocoque, or its well-resolved plug-in-hybrid powertrain that incorporates a tiny 1.5-liter three-cylinder engine and an electric motor, or its seamless through-the-road all-wheel drive. This is a car that will even have frickin' laser beams for headlights - at least it will for our friends in Europe (and it will in the US, should our legislators ever catch up).

Toyota launches BMW-powered Verso in Europe

Tue, 03 Dec 2013

BMW makes some sweet-revving engines, but its own vehicles aren't the only ones running BMW engines. So do the latest from Rolls-Royce and Mini, of course, as well as a handful of Peugeots and Citroëns thanks to its joint engine program with PSA. Wiesmann uses BMW engines, as did the famous McLaren F1. And now we can add one more to the list.
That would be the Toyota Verso, a Corolla-based minivan which Toyota builds in Turkey and sells in Europe and a few other markets overseas. The Verso is also now officially the first beneficiary of the partnership between Toyota and BMW as the Japanese automaker has released the MPV with BMW's 1.6-liter turbodiesel four.
The 111-horsepower engine is coupled to a Toyota transmission and joins the Verso range as the fourth (and least powerful) engine in the lineup, alongside the 122hp 2.0 diesel and the gasoline options with 1.6 liters and 160 hp and 1.8 for 180. Future collaborations between the two automakers will include fuel-cell development, a new joint sportscar platform, lightweight bodywork research and a new generation of lithium-air batteries. See the press release below for further details.

Mercedes leads in US luxury car thefts

Wed, 31 Jul 2013

Mercedes-Benz makes some fine automobiles. The Silver Arrow'd cars are so good, apparently, that thieves can't help but try to steal them. The German brand is at the top of the charts for luxury car thefts in the US, according to the National Insurance Crime Bureau, with New York City leading the way. (And those New Yorkers complain about Detroit being bad!)
The C-Class was the most stolen model, with 485 ganked between 2009 and 2012 in NYC alone, while the E-Class and S-Class (which also boasted the worst recovery rate, at 59 percent) both finished in the top ten. Following the C-Class was the BMW 3 Series and Infiniti G. Not surprisingly, each of these were the most common models in their respective lineups. Los Angeles and Miami are also prime hotspots for luxury car thefts, according to the Detroit News report.
While getting your car stolen is pretty awful, there was one inspiring statistic compiled by the NICB - the average recovery rate across the board was 84 percent, with the Cadillac CTS getting recovered 91 percent of the time.
