VIN WBSBR93403PK03671 93/100 Autocheck/Pristine Carfax upon purchase. Purchased 07/13 at 66.5k, selling 01/14 as I’m moving back up to MI and it isn’t fit as a DD in the cold north. Third owner. Maintained to a tee as per Mike Miller’s Old
School BMW Maintenance Suggestions. Never smoked in. Never tracked. Interior is pristine for the mostpart, minus a small thread tear in the driver's seat side bolster. Zero subframe issues with me or any previous owners. Typical, as the convertible contains extra reinforcement all around. Rod bearing recall performed by first owner. Inspection I/II completed at
67k, even though the PO stated Inspection II was done on time before 60k. TWS Changes every 5k actual miles throughout the vehicle's history. Recent maintenance history: Spark plugs, cabin air filter, intake filter, wiper inserts, engine oil change, both serpentine belts, differential oil, transmission oil, brake fluid, clutch delay valve deleted, convertible top locks replaced after fault with driver side, rear shock mounts replaced/upgraded, front control arm bushings replaced, rear trailing arm bushings replaced/upgraded, thermostat and o-rings replaced along the cooling system. 4 wheel alignment performed by Collin at Soulspeed. Highly recommended. Upgrade/mod history: Nothing major. E60 545i shift lever upgrade, acts as short-shifter inside the E46. Feels great, nothing like the pick-up truck sloppiness that comes from the factory. Upgraded “fat boy” clutch stop. RSM/RTABs are urethane. No NVH increase, and the rear end is planted and safeguarded from future failures. Minor aesthetic mods – matte black hood grilles/side gills and upgraded embossed hood roundel. Full paint correction performed, and the CBM is in great shape minus a couple hood dings. Upcoming maintenance needed: Rear tires are @ 40% tread. Fronts 80%. Suspension performs well and doesn’t need to be replaced for another 15-20k. Nothing needs to be done right now. Minor infamous rattle @ 1.9k rpms, suspected to be exhaust gaskets between section one and two. Not VANOS related.
All in all, this E46 is prime. Fully automatic top in excellent condition. The carbon black metallic + cinnamon two-tone interior is very desired, especially around the ATX/UT crowd. Gets compliments and thumbs up from enthusiasts everywhere. No-fuss 6 speed manual, always taken care of and maintained over and above BMW recommendations. Not my first Bimmer. Harmon Kardon premium factory upgrade sounds great with the top up or down, and the heated seats make year-round topless fun very enjoyable. Bought an OE wind deflector ($550) that I’m throwing in, as well. The car drives beautifully, and it crushes me to have to let her go. Haven’t spent much time behind the wheel, but I simply cannot keep it when I’m going to be relocating back up to Michigan in the next month. Any questions/concerns? Let me know. No joyrides without verifiable funds in hand. Looking for an owner who will take care of the vehicle. |

Which car companies are creating new jobs in America?
Fri, Sep 22 2017Since January, automakers have announced investments totaling $9.5 billion in U.S. plants, creating or retaining more than 12,000 jobs. Some of those companies have yet to announce just how many jobs will be created given their investments, with the location of many of those jobs still to be determined. Specifically, the 4,000-job Toyota-Mazda joint venture plant still hasn't announced its location, with numerous states jockeying for it. Hyundai has plans to invest $1 billion but has not announced a jobs number yet. And likewise Ford is investing $1.2 billion in Michigan without specifying a number of jobs. Volvo this week announced plans to add a second line to its factory under construction in South Carolina, spending another $500 million and adding 2,500 jobs to the 2,000 it was already trying to fill. Then Thursday, Daimler announced a $1 billion expansion to its facility in Tuscaloosa, Ala., to produce EV batteries and electric SUVs, a move that will add 600 jobs to its hiring this year. Above, we've created a handy pie chart showing you which companies have announced new jobs and how many there will be.

Mercedes could make EV batteries with Audi, BMW
Mon, Sep 21 2015It's not a big leap from digital maps to batteries, it turns out.The head of Mercedes-Benz parent Daimler said recently that he envisions his company working together with German automotive competitors BMW and Volkswagen to further accelerate electric-vehicle battery technology. The three automakers recently worked together to enhance their in-car maps systems. Daimler CEO Dieter Zetsche talked about "commonalities" between automakers, not the least of which is the need for all of them to achieve increasingly stringent fuel-economy requirements in the European Union, at the Frankfurt Auto Show last week, according to Reuters. While these companies have made their own inroads as far as plug-in vehicles go, they are all behind the Renault-Nissan Alliance when it comes to public deployment of electric vehicles. This summer, Daimler, Audi and BMW hooked up to acquire the Nokia Here digital-mapping service for about $2.8 billion. The triad of automakers beat out companies such as Apple and Uber to buy the entity, which was founded in 1986 as Navteq. Nokia bought the company in 2007. The acquisition makes sense as the automakers work on improving their products with features like cloud-based data to warn drivers of icy roads and traffic jams. The technology will likely also eventually be used in autonomous vehicles. Automakers working together for a common goal of improved technology is nothing new, of course. General Motors and Honda agreed in 2013 to work together to accelerate hydrogen fuel-cell drivetrain development. Earlier that same year, Daimler said it would work with Ford and Nissan in a separate collaboration to speed up the development of hydrogen fuel-cell technology. Related Video:
