DESCRIPTION

For sale is this 2002 Alpine White BMW M3 with tons of aftermarket components. This car looks and runs great. The vehicle has mostly highway miles due to the previous owner's long work commute, and has been serviced regularly and maintained very well. Never been in an accident, the vehicle and title are both clean and clear. The vehicle recently had a significant amount of work done on the rear suspension, including rear subframe reinforcement, rear subframe mounts replaced, all new rear trailing arm bushings and new upper shock mounts. Other work done recently includes, new battery, new e-brake cable, and two brand new rear Yokohama S Drive performance tires with less than 100 miles on them. This M3 is all tuned up and ready to go and is quite an experience to drive. Big even power band, nice linear torque curve, and handles like it's on rails. 

AFTERMARKET COMPONENTS

This M3 is loaded with tons of aftermarket goodies, including:
- CSL Front bumper
- CSL Carbon fiber trunk
- CSL Style front splitters
- Carbon fiber rear diffuser 
- K&N Typhoon Cold Air Intake
- Aftermarket exhaust (Brand unknown, but is high end with the blue titanium tip. Looks and sounds amazing.)
- Koni Yellow Adjustable Sport Shocks/Struts
- H&R Sport Spring set
- 20" HRE Performance wheels

Aftermarket parts totaling over $10,000 in value. The HRE Performance wheels are top of the line and alone are worth approximately $6,000.

KNOWN ISSUES

There are a few minor issues with the vehicle as-is, but all are accessory related, and in no way effect or relate to the drivability, performance, or mechanical condition of the vehicle, but I am selling the vehicle as-is and in the spirit of full transparency, the issues are as follows:

- Passenger door lock does not operate properly. The door will not unlock via the key, or the lock/unlock button in the center console. It will open from the driver pulling the inside door handle open about 25% of the time. This is undoubtedly a minor electrical issue, and should be an easy/cheap fix. This issue just very recently occurred, and knowing that I was planning on selling the car, I decided to leave it be. 
- Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) function stays off, and can not be turned on via the DSC button in the center console. This does not effect the drivability of the vehicle at all, and I actually prefer to drive the vehicle with the DSC off since it is a sports car, so this was never something I cared to get fixed, but again is undoubtedly a minor electrical issue. 
- Outside temperature gauge reads -40 degrees. Cheap and easy to replace.
- Keyless entry remote batteries are dead. A new one from the factory is all that is needed.
- Minor curb scuffing on the outside edge of the passenger side wheels. Totally normal wear and nothing extreme. 
- Some minor scuffing on center part of rear seats. Minor scuffing of center console around e-brake, and wear on driver's side interior door handle. All average wear and tear for the vehicle's age and nothing unexpected here. 

This car is perfect for the sports car and/or BMW enthusiast. Runs and drives incredibly, handles like it's on rails, and looks fantastic.

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 performance engineering boss wants an M7

Mon, 16 Dec 2013

Audi has the S8, Mercedes has the S63 AMG and Jaguar has the XJR, but BMW has always held that an M7 wasn't justified, leaving its associated Alpina line to tackle that market with the B7 (pictured). The chief engineer at the M division, however, feels otherwise.
Speaking to Autocar, the BMW M development chief Albert Biermann indicated that he would like to see the M division do a performance version of the 7 Series to compete with the above-mentioned models, but that there are no current plans in place to do so. Neither did he specify what kind of engine it would have, or if it would be badged, for that matter, as an M7 or an M Performance model.
The latter is the approach which the M division is reportedly taking with performance versions of BMW crossovers beyond the X5 M and X6 M, such as the X3 and upcoming X4. The division is also said to be developing a performance-tuned xDrive system to compete with AMG's new all-wheel-drive models, as well as a potential M3 GT to join the new M3 sedan and M4 coupe with a slantback bodystyle.

2015 BMW X6 stays the course with more power, RWD model

Thu, 05 Jun 2014

What would this world be without the BMW X6? Oh, sure, the whole coupe-crossover design trend surely would have started somewhere, but BMW was the first, launching its odd duck back in 2008. Much as we like to harp on the X6 (for being less functional and more expensive than the X5 on which it's based), people around the world sure do seem to like the thing, BMW having sold some 250,000 examples since the CUV's birth. And as you first saw thanks to leaked images this morning, the second-generation X6 has just arrived.
The shape is familiar, as are specific styling elements like the larger headlamps (now available with a full-LED treatment) and taillamps, mimicking those found on the X5. Two trims are available - xLine and M Sport - the former taking a more subdued approach, while the latter uses the traditionally bulgy and aggressive M-badged kit, with larger air intakes and matte aluminum grille bars. All X6s come standard with 19-inch wheels, and 20s are optional.
Regardless of trim, BMW will now offer the X6 in three guises here in the United States: sDrive35i, xDrive35i and xDrive50i. Dissecting the nomenclature, that means the first two models will be powered by BMW's 3.0-liter turbocharged inline-six, good for 300 horsepower and 300 pound-feet of torque. The sDrive X6 uses rear-wheel drive, while the xDrive, of course, uses all-wheel drive. Moving up, the xDrive50i uses the same twin-turbo 4.4-liter V8 as its predecessor, though power has been increased to 450 hp and 480 lb-ft. All X6 models are fitted with an eight-speed automatic transmission, and BMW says that the new powertrains are more efficient than before, though official fuel economy numbers have not yet been released.
