This is a gorgeous 1999 BMW Z3. It is an excellent example of a well-maintained car that has been taken care of its entire life. It currently has a little over 102,000 miles on it. A ton of great maintenance has been done by me and also by the previous owner. This car is completely stock.  All VIN-stamped body panels are present.  I really like this car, but I've purchased a 6-speed 2006 Pontiac GTO (which is really an Australian Holden Monaro!) and do not have inside storage for both cars.

Highlights of the vehicle:
-ABS module rebuilt by ModuleMasters.com (Has 5-year warranty).
-Brand-new rear tires and tons of tread left on the fronts tires.  All tires are matching and are Pirelli's PZeroNero. 225/45/17 front and 245/40/17 rear.
-Includes 17-inch BMW 330CI wheels.
-Approximately 2,000 miles on the last oil change with Mobil 1 0W-40.  I only use Mann oil filters.  The car uses no oil.
-Valve cover gasket was replaced relatively recently.
-Transmission fluid and differential fluid have been replaced with full synthetic fluids.  Amsoil full synthetic ATF is in the transmission.
-Brake fluid and clutch fluid have been replaced with BMW DOT 4 brake fluid. 
-Four brand new Sensen shocks all around. With that, the rear shock mounts were also replaced.
-Powerflex bushings on front lower control arms (purple street version).
-Seat bushings have been replaced with Whalen Delrin seat bushings (no more rocking seats!).
-Both seat belt guides have been replaced with BMW OEM parts.
-Both front and rear brake pads were replaced with BMW OEM pads, and the E-brake shoes were done as well.
-I also replaced the stock rubber clutch line with a Rogue Engineering stainless clutch line.
-The Glove box sag fix has been performed on this car, too.  It will not sag!
-The power top is completely functional, but the top cylinder was leaking.  So, I just installed a manual gas-assist shock to replace it.  It is very easy to pull up manually while seated in the car.  I will be including the old hydraulic top cylinder as well.
-Main serpentine belt replaced.
-Trunk struts replaced.
-3 true BMW key sets are included with the car.

- I also have a few spare parts for the car including a brand new expansion tank and new tie rod ends.  These convey to the new owner as well.

Minor flaws:
-A couple minor dents on the fenders.  Very small but mentioned for accuracy!
-A few scratches and chips on the front.  Nothing unusual, and far less than what you'd expect on a 100,000-mile, 15-year-old car.
-Driver's seat has 2 inches of stitching missing, but no rips in the leather, and nothing is coming apart.
-CARFAX included with car.  Clean EXCEPT for an accident in 2004 where it is noted in the CARFAX as "Damage to front."  

This car is very, very clean and well-maintained.  Everything is functional with the car and the A/C is ice cold.  I will accept a $500 deposit with PayPal,  with the balance to be paid in cash or with a cashier's check on a nationally-recognized bank.  I have the title in hand.  Feel free to ask any questions.  The car is also for sale locally and is subject to prior sale--but if you still see it listed here, don't worry; that means it's still available!  Please contact me if you have any questions or would like to see the car.  I'll respond quickly.  The car is located about 4 miles from Orlando International Airport in a residential subdivision.  Thank you for your time!

    Recharge Wrap-up: Eigg's renewable energy grid, Wulin City Car EV looks like i3

    Fri, Sep 12 2014

    Scotland's Isle of Eigg's electrical grid relies solely on wind, hydro and solar power. It's the first grid of its kind after switching to renewable energy from noisy, unreliable diesel generators. Scotland's renewable resources are fodder for supporters of independence form the UK, and Eigg is a perfect example of that potential. Besides being a responsible community, it also seems like a lovely place to visit. Read more at Reuters. London Mayor Boris Johnson is calling for incentives for diesel vehicle scrapping. The goal is to improve London's air quality, encourage the purchase of clean vehicles and offset the inconvenience of charging diesel cars to enter the city's proposed Ultra Low Emissions Zone. Read more at Green Car Congress or in the press release below. BMW, Nissan, Renault and Volkswagen are teaming up to create a better EV charging infrastructure in the UK and Ireland. As part of the Trans-European Transport Network (T-ENT) program, the group aims to create extended EV-friendly roadways with the UK Rapid Charge Network, connecting major cities on the islands. Plans for the network include 70 rapid chargers along 684 miles of road. The four manufacturers also want to extend the project to mainland Europe to encourage the adoption of EVs. Read more at Hybrid Cars. Wuling is working on an EV, called City Car, which liberally takes visual cues from the BMW i3. The City Car EV concept is slated to make its debut in November at the Guangzhou Auto Show, while a production version could make its way onto Chinese roads next year. We might have to wait until the debut to know what powers the City Car, as those details haven't been released yet. General Motors is a 43-percent stakeholder in Wuling. Read and see more at Car News China. Taxi customers in New York will enjoy greater payment flexibility with the new interoperability between RideLinQ and Way2ride apps. Now customers will be able to use either app to pay in any of the city's 20,000 green and yellow taxis. There's no need for separate apps for separate cabs, and no need for drivers to install any new equipment. The groups behind the apps hope to expand this functionality to other cities across the country. Read more in the press release below.

    2014 BMW X5

    Wed, 18 Sep 2013

    Is Better Than Ever Still Good Enough?
    By now, all but the staunchest of traditionalists have moved past the shock and horror of seeing their favorite automotive brands branching into categories and segments that break with their previously accepted norms. In other words, you and I don't really care all that much if the BMW M3 is powered by an inline six or a V8, or whether it boasts a turbocharger, just so long as the end result is an awesome car. Similarly, we don't get all hot under the collar seeing that same M3 share space on the showroom floor with a brace of SUVs and crossovers... or, as BMW continues to insist, Sports Activity Vehicles.
    Time, as they say, heals all wounds, and the BMW X5 has been around long enough, having first seen the light of day in 1999, that anyone offended by its existence has since gotten over it. Plus, the X5 is a legitimately nice vehicle to drive, offering such desirable qualities to family men and women as seating for up to seven, all-wheel drive and a commandingly tall view of the road. For the enthusiast set, the X5 serves up a taut chassis and powerful engine options.

    BMW X3 spied with nip and tuck nearly complete

    Fri, 18 Oct 2013

    With the style-driven BMW X4 coming along in development, it looks like some of the forthcoming crossover's design could trickle over to its utilitarian sibling, the X3. Captured in these spy shots, it appears that the 2015 BMW X3 is preparing for a minor facelift, and from what we can tell, the biggest change will center on the CUV's headlights.
    There is plenty of camouflage on the front and rear fascias to suggest updates will occur there, too, but we can definitely tell that the X3 will be getting LED-equipped headlights - at least as an option, anyway. The halos are slightly different from the current offering and there is also an LED strip above the headlights used as turn signal indicators. Another interesting thing we notice in these pictures is the nub at the bottom of the grille (also visible in recent X4 spy shots). While this could be some sort of test sensor for this prototype, it could also be a front-mounted camera for a possible parking assist system.
    We don't expect any changes to the powertrain and we're not sure what updates could be in store for the interior, but we're guessing that that the 2015 X3 will debut shortly after the X4 goes on sale next year.
