 Very Rare 1995 E36 BMW M3 - ENGINE has only 78,000 miles on it, Avus Blue, Lt Gray Leather Interior w/ Vader Front Seats VIN- WBSBF9327SEH00883

Clean Title, Heavily Modified and Finely Tuned.  I have the CARFAX also.  To answer the first question on everyone's mind, I am posting this because it is becoming impractical for me and my family to have it.  My family is growing, I need a four door vehicle or a house with more garage space.  Since the later is less realistic for me, the car can be replaced for something the whole family can use.  This car has been a joy to build and use.  I've owned it for about 6 years and have clocked less than 6,000 miles per year on it.  It has been babied.  Any little tick or sound has been remedied and fixed about the moment I notice it.  I have documents and receipts totalling over $27,000 in repairs and modifications not including what I paid to buy the car.  I'm sure there are several hundreds of dollars more I don't have receipts for repairs and modifications.  Repairs were to replace worn out parts, like the alternator and water pump, and modifications are a plenty.  I bought this car from my best friend who needed the money at the time.  Besides the engine swap, I did the rest of the modifications. 
The only thing that is left original on this car, basically, is the drivetrain and disc brakes. 

Here is a list of the changes made to this car from stock:

3.0 motor replaced with a new 3.2 liter motor at 111,246 miles

There are most likely parts i've missed listing, but the major stuff is there.  I have tons of extra parts too.  The A/C blows cold and everything works.  I have a sub-box and amp in the trunk too.  The little computer in the center console had some pixels not working so I just unplugged it.  From what you could read, it worked just fine, it just annoyed me.  There are some paint blemishes on the front from regular driving on the crappy Utah roads, tiny rocks and stuff are unforgiving.  There is also a crack in the LF headlight casing and bumper cover in the center area.  There are minor scratches here and there, but barely noticable.  I tried taking pictures of them, but they just don't show up well enough, that is how minor they are. 

This baby dynoed at 302 rear wheel horsepower at 6 psi of boost.  I'm sure if you drove it down to sea level it would dyno around 375 rear wheel horsepower and be pushing around 9 psi.  I have a group of friends with a similar setup on their M3's and they are at sea level and that is what their power and boost levels are at.  She is a sleeper for sure.  I pass the emissions tailpipe sniffer and inpection every year with flying colors.  This car is fully street legal and safe with a CLEAN title.  I drove it to work and back for the last 6 years which is why you will only see about 5-6,000 miles per year on it.  My bride hates driving the clutch and we hate packing the family in the smallness of it when we take it out.  Like I said before, it is impractical for me and my family. 

I am looking for the right buyer.  I have it listed locally (and reserve the right to end the listing early).


The car is genuinely for sale and I am not up a creek if it doesn't sell so, p
lease, no low ball offers and if you come to see it, no joy rides.  I respectfully ask for serious interest only.  Obviously nobody can buy this car with a conventional auto loan, you'll need more than that.  Thank you for reading this far.  Please email me with ANY questions before you bid or offer.  I will be happy to talk over the phone too, just email me if you're interested.  The car is sold AS-IS with no warranty expressed or implied.  I'll only accept cash or a cashiers check from a reputable bank or credit union.  Once payment has cleared I will give up possession of the car.

Translogic 182: CXC Motion Pro II Racing Simulator

Thu, Aug 13 2015

Translogic gets some seat time in the CXC Motion Pro II to test if the high fidelity racing simulator can impact our host's real-life track times. Host Jonathon Buckley hits the track at Auto Club Speedway of California in a 2015 BMW M4 to put down a baseline lap time before his virtual training session in the Motion Pro II. After learning the lines of the track in a simulated setting, Jonathon returns to the track to put his skills to the test. "We designed it, originally, as a professional training tool for race car drivers," says CXC Simulation's founder and president Chris Considine. "Make it authentic. Make it real." The Motion Pro II boasts "thousands of cars and track models," ranging from street cars, to rally and off-road vehicles. Will this hyper realistic racing simulator help Jonathon improve his lap time?

A BMW i3 will cost you $100,000 in Brazil

Wed, Oct 1 2014

Brazil is a long way from the US, and the price of the BMW i3 in that South American country is even further away from what Americans pay for the same electric vehicle. But that hasn't stopped a few wealthy Brazilians from taking the plunge. The BMW i3 REx – i.e., the one with the gas-powered range-extender – is the first mass-produced vehicle of its kind to be imported to Brazil (there are a few Nissan Leaf vehicles in fleet use), and those intrepid buyers are forking over about $100,000 to own the vehicle, according to Just-Auto. The country's first 100 i3's were recently received in Sao Paolo, and about 30 of them have been sold. That pricetag is a wee bit higher than in the US, where the i3 starts under $42,000. BMW did open a $261-million factory in Brazil this year, but the i3 continues to be produced exclusively in Germany. It's not just fancy new plug-in cars and World Cup tickets that cost a lot in Brazil. The Volkswagen Golf, which retails for less than $18,000 in the States, costs about $23,000 in Brazil and the Economist ran a series of articles last year explaining how currency changes have resulted in the dollar-to-Brazilian real exchange rate surging in recent years.

BMW apparently still undecided about future i project electric vehicles

Wed, Jan 29 2014

Coaches like to say that there's no "i" in team. At least one BMW executive is saying the company's not sure if there are any more "i"s in its near future. BMW executive Harald Krueger indicated that the German automaker is holding back on any i-project plans besides the i3 city car and i8 plug-in hybrid sports car until the company gets a better idea of how those models are selling, Reuters says. Bimmer has spent about $2.7 billion on the plug-in sub-brand and says it's taken more than 11,000 orders for the i3 since the model was first shown off at German dealerships last fall. Additionally, BMW has no plans to make the i3 in China (BMW makes versions of its 3- and 5-series sedans there). As we all know, should the brand expand, BMW has already trademarked the "i" badge from i1 through i9. There are a lot of mixed messages on the BMW i project front. For example, early indications are that i3 demand has been higher expected. BMW North America chief Ludwig Willisch indicated earlier this month that US demand for the electric city car, at least for the near future, will likely to outstrip supply. Bimmer dealers in the US will start getting the $41,350 i3 in May. Additionally, fellow BMW executive Jacob Harb said the company was already starting to work on its next EV, to be larger than the i3, though he didn't give many details and was later somewhat refuted by another BMW spokesman.
