*** This is a relist by eBay user knapp001 via a new eBay account. If for any reason a serious buyer is uncomfortable purchasing the car via this username I have no issue relisting it with my primary username prior to purchase. To find out why I ended up creating new username, please see the bottom of this listing. Thanks for looking! *** This car started life as a stock 1998 BMW M3, but was completely decked out by Active Autowerke to the tune of over $35,000 ($23,650.95 in 1999, $6,851.14 in 2006, and $5,196.33 in 2012). All of the work was done by Active at Active, and it is fully documented. In fact, I have every piece of documentation for this car since the day it rolled of the lot, and all of the work has been done by either Active, BMW or a certified BMW mechanic. This car pushes about 470HP according to Active. It has never been abused or raced. I purchased the car from the original owner who kept it as a Sunday driver, which is represented by the less than 42,250 original miles on the odometer. The beauty of this car is that it drives like stock, albeit with a lot more of a kick. It drives and handles exactly like a BMW M3 should...not like the disappointing 240HP stock M3s that leave you wanting more. The car has received all of its required service and it remains in great operating condition. The tires have about 5,000 miles on them, the rotors and the calipers have a ton of meat on them. This car needs nothing, but a new driver. Here is a list of some of the major mods: AA Turbo Stage 2/Gen 2 Package at 12 psi boost AA Stainless Exhaust AA Stage II Intercooler AA Front Strut Tower Brace Koni Adjustable Shocks and Strut Kit with RD Lower Sports Spring Kit Stand-alone F.I. System High performance Clutch AA Aluminum Flywheel Chrome Air Grill Brembo 2 Piece Racing Brake Kit Eternal Wastegate HKS Turbo Timer HKS Variable Boost Controller AA "X" Brace lower front Chassis RD Swaybar Kit Dual Gauge A Piller with Boost and Air/Fuel OBD II upgrade Aluminum Radiator AA Diff Support Bracket Kit I would rate the interior and exterior at a 7 out of 10. The matching hardtop does not leak, and the soft top has almost never been used. I can provide copies of the documentation and any additional high resolution pictures by request. The car also comes with an additional set of staggered wheels and tires. The wheels are not in the best of shape, but all four of the Perrelli PZERO tires have less than 1000 miles on them (bought and mounted in Nov. 2012). The KBB private party value of the car is: Excellent - $12,103 Very Good - $11,803 Good - $11,628 The Truecar Private Party Sale Price is Low Range: $14,188 Market Average Sale Price: $14,413 High Range: $14,639 Recommended List Price: $16,575 If you include the cost of the car, there is almost $90,000 in this car (all of which is documented). The car has a clean Autocheck and Title. The car and I are in Pebble Beach, Ca. Buyer is responsible for pickup or shipping, but I will help in anyway I can once full payment is received. ***I am not a new eBay user. I have been selling on eBay since 2000 through my other username: knapp001. Please free to message me at that username to confirm ownership. The only reason that I created this new username is due to eBay's vehicle listing policy, which has labeled my primary account as a "high volume seller". As some of you know, eBay users are permitted to list 6 vehicles a year without an insertion fee (instead they pay a final value fee of $125), but if you relist the same vehicle that will count against your 6 listings (i.e. 6 different vehicles each listed one time and 1 vehicle relisted 6 times is the same thing). Despite being unaware of this policy when I relisted a vehicle too many times, I have no issue with it and feel that it is fair. However, if an eBay user ever goes over this 6 vehicle limit the user is permanently labeled as a "high volume seller" and the user is never again permitted to take advantage of the 6 insertion free listings. The alternative is paying a $50 insertion fee for each listing and relisting. This is directly from an eBay customer service rep who stated they do not agree with the policy and that eBay gets a lot of complaints about it. Their recommendation was to either use a friends account or create an entirely new one to circumvent this policy.*** |

2021 BMW M3 and M4 vs all the high-powered sport sedans and coupes
Wed, Sep 23 2020Should you have a found a way to get past that schnoz, you've probably digested some of the basic specs for the all-new 2021 BMW M3 sedan and M4 coupe specs. They're plenty impressive. There's also, basically, two sets of them thanks to the regular and Competition versions that differ in engine output and transmission type. But how do they compare to other ultra sport sedans and coupes? Well, we were wondering that too, so we fired up the Autoblog Comparison Spreadsheet Generator 5000 (aka me chained to my computer in a dark basement). Sadly, there are surprisingly few competitors for the 2021 BMW M3. Rival sedans include the Mercedes-AMG C 63 and the Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio, along with the Audi RS 5 Sportback sedan/coupe/hatchback thing. There's no more Lexus IS F, the Cadillac CT4 Blackwing has yet to arrive and Jaguar doesn't offer a spicy XE R. Happily, there are more coupe rivals for the 2021 BMW M4, including the two-door versions of the AMG and Audi as well as the Lexus RC F. I also included the Ford Shelby GT350 and Chevrolet Camaro SS 1LE. On paper, they align incredibly well. On the street and on a track, I can personally attest that these Americans are fully capable of keeping up and/or bettering the fancy-pants luxury brands (and let's not forget there are even more powerful, hardcore versions available). If they don't align in terms of price or prestige, whatever. OK, let's get to the spreadsheet. Let's start with the coupes and note that I didn't bother listing the dimensions for the M4 Competition and C 63 S as they are identical to their "lesser" siblings. I won't bother burning words explaining what you can see on the chart. Instead, I'll point out a few things that stood out to me. First, BMW M comes awfully close to matching the output of AMG's twin-turbo V8 despite having two fewer cylinders. Similarly, Audi manages to better the 0-60 time of the M4 Competition and tie the C 63 S despite being WAY down on power. It's not like it weighs less. Magic? Second, and speaking of 0-60 times, remember the importance that transmission and drivetrain make with them. It's not just horsepower and torque. An automatic will be quicker and easier to launch than a manual, while all-wheel drive provides more instantaneous and beneficial grip.
BMW 4 Series Convertible basks in the sun
Wed, 07 Aug 2013The BMW 4 Series Convertible will show its non-camouflaged face sometime later this year, but our spies recently caught this nearly naked prototype out getting some sun. As you'll recall, the droptop 4 Series replaces the 3 Series Convertible in the BMW range, and if our recent stint behind the wheel of the new 435i Coupe is anything to go on, this topless 4er should be quite a fun runabout for sun-drenched motoring.
To no one's surprise, the 4 Series Convertible shares all of its design with the 4 Series coupe, save, of course, the obvious roofectomy. Beyond that, the topless 2+2 will use the same engines and transmissions as the coupe, meaning it should arrive in the US in both 428i and 435i guises, powered by a 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-four and 3.0-liter turbocharged inline-six, respectively. Both six-speed manual and eight-speed automatic transmissions will be available.
The car spied this time around has the full M Sport visual treatment, with the revised (and better-looking) front fascia, larger 19-inch wheels, and attractive Melbourne Red paint. Interestingly, it appears this prototype has the standard xenon headlamp setup, rather than the full-LED option that's also available.
Six luxury-car features I'm ashamed to admit I love
Thu, 16 Oct 2014A hot compress felt wonderful on my sore back. The methodical kneading of my shoulder blades loosened the knots that formed over several hours of driving. The Swedish-style pulses firing into my lumbar region released more tension.
I wasn't getting a much-needed massage following a recent road trip. I was getting it during the road trip.
I grew up riding in the back seat of a 1976 Chevy Nova. But once you use these lux features, it's easy to go soft.
