*** 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.*** |

BMW recalling 140,000 electric Mini Cooper SEs for battery issue
Tue, Sep 3 2024BERLIN — German automaker BMW is recalling electric Mini Cooper SE vehicles due to problems in their batteries, which could potentially affect more than 140,000 autos worldwide. Included in the recall are 12,535 Mini SEs sold in the United States. Around 39,000 vehicles could be affected in Germany, the company said in a statement on Monday, adding that there are no known accidents or injuries caused by the problem. Problems in the battery system can lead to overheating. "A vehicle fire, even when the vehicle is parked, cannot be ruled out," the statement said. There was such a "thermal event" in the U.S. in October 2023, then another in Germany in January 2024. Both have been under investigation. BMW will install a software update in the EVs. The update contains a diagnostic function that will recognize a malfunction of the battery and alerts the driver. The NHTSA recall statement says the software will then somehow discharge the battery to less than a 30% state of charge. Customers who received the message are asked to visit a Mini partner, the company said.
BMW teases Airtouch gesture-based infotainment ahead of CES
Mon, Dec 28 2015At the last Consumer Electronics Show BMW revealed a gesture control system that employed a 3D sensor in the roof of a car to read hand movements made in front of the dashboard. That appearance in Las Vegas was a tease for the system we'd get in the brand new 7 Series. At next month's CES BMW will showcase a "Vision Car" with a concept interior of the future that incorporates the evolution of the current gesture system. It is called Airtouch. Permitting a wider variety of iDrive control, 3D sensors on the instrument panel read movements made with a flat hand so that driver or passenger can work their way through entertainment, navigation, and communication menus. Users can confirm actions with hand gestures, or with a button on the steering wheel or another in the passenger's door. We'll find out next month what the rest of the Vision Car includes. If this year's template is a guide, we'll also keep an eye on the coming 7 Series flagships to see if they include production versions of Airtouch. There's a press release below for more information. Related Video: BMW Group at the CES 2016 in Las Vegas. BMW presents the principle of the contactless touchscreen with AirTouch.28.12.2015, Munich/Las Vegas. At the Consumer Electronics Show (CES, 6 to 9 January 2016) in Las Vegas, the BMW Group is presenting a Vision Car to demonstrate what the interior and the user interface of the future might look like. The rapid advance of networking between driver, vehicle and environment is becoming increasingly intensive and is facilitating new services. One example of new technologies in seamlessly networked vehicles is provided by AirTouch. This feature empowers intuitive control of entertainment, navigation and communication functions using simple gestures made with a flat hand. AirTouch allows the display in a vehicle to be operated like a touchscreen without actually having to make contact with the surface. Sensors record the hand movements in the area between the central console and the interior mirror. This enables drivers or passengers to change the focus on the surface of the large panorama display. Simple confirmation selects the relevant menu item or activates an icon.Sensors on the instrument dashboard permit 3D control.One year ago, BMW already presented the new gesture control at the CES. This enables simple movements of a finger to carry out actions such as adjusting the loudness or accepting phone calls.
Porsche 911 Turbo and Nissan GT-R Nismo star in World's Greatest Drag Race 4
Fri, 26 Sep 2014We love Motor Trend's annual World's Greatest Drag Race video. Now back for its fourth appearance, the idea of lining some of the world's fastest cars up for a ten-wide, straight-line, full-throttle run is, well... it's pretty freaking badass.
The lineup this year boasts some impressively fast cars to be sure. The group of ten includes the following darlings: Alfa Romeo 4C, BMW i8, BMW M4, Chevrolet Camaro Z/28, Ford Fiesta ST, Jaguar F-Type R Coupe, Nissan GT-R Nismo, Porsche 911 Turbo S, Subaru WRX STI and, last but not least, the Volkswagen GTI. Give us any one of those for the weekend, and we're happy to take the keys.
It must be said though, that for a publication that draws as much water as Motor Trend does, there are some big cars that we might expect to be here instead. The Lamborghini Huracán or Ferrari 458 Speciale would have added some exotic flare to the list, and the omissions of the Chevy Corvette Stingray (for the second year in a row) and the Dodge Challenger Hellcat are real head-scratchers.
