1995 Cosmos Black E36 Obdi(s50) Bmw M3 Base Coupe 2-door 3.0l on 2040-cars
Dupont, Washington, United States
|
Hello fellow enthusiasts/E-bay surfers, I'm
putting my prized OBDI E36 M3 up for sale for the sole reason that I am
moving to Germany in 3 months and I cannot take it with me. That is
also the reason I am asking for such a low price, because I don't have
much time haggle prices. Shoot me an offer! Runs and drives like a dream, and the exterior is in amazing condition, especially for it's age! Just a few minor chips and scratches. Nothing major, all from age and previous owners. No missing parts. Surprisingly well kept leather interior all around. The driver seat is pretty much the only seat that shows age wear and it's not by much. The last owner ran a garage, so he had everything he needed to take really great care of it. I am the third owner and I have put just as much pride into the M3 as the previous ones. For most of the time I've owned it, it has been stored in the
garage when not driven. It was at 218,XXX miles when I bought it. It is currently at 233,107 miles and well maintained and kept.
Obviously being almost 2 decades old took it's naturally expected toll
on a handful of the OEM parts and workings, so I did a few good system
overhauls and part replacement/upgrades! If anyone has any questions on
what OEM/aftermarket work and tuning has been performed please feel free
to ask. That being said I'll get into the pros and cons lists of my
baby. PROS: -New rear tires: 235/40ZR-17 Sumitomo HTR Z II (500 miles) (Super Grabby!) -UUC steel clutch line (3,XXX miles) -UUC delrin clutch pedal bushings (3,XXX miles) -Cross-drilled rotors (19, XXX miles) -Bilstein shocks from TMS (19,XXX miles) -New slave AND master clutch cylinders (3,XXX miles) -Radiator (5,XXX miles) -Water pump (5,XXX miles) -Alternator (5,XXX miles) -Fan Delete "Mod" (800 miles) -Low temp thermostat (800 miles) -Both belts and all pulley wheels (800 miles) -Euro Air Box w/ snorkel -Euro 3.5" MAF (10,XXX miles) -TMS engine chip (500 miles) -SSI Stealth Undershield -Euro clear corner lights, tail lights, and side markers -Stealth Auto's chromed light bulbs in all turn signals -Self made clutch stop -Euro Samco intake boot (500 miles) -New OEM hood shocks -Brand new OEM fog lights (glass) -Newer style BMW Badges (painted) for both hood AND trunk (no more pesky sticker emblems that chip away) -Recently replaced headlight control switch -Freshly painted valve cover (Flat Black/High Temp) -Heated/ Fully Automatic Seats -Automatic Sunroof -OEM Wood Interior Trim -Original BMW multi-disc CD changer w/ spare disc cartridges -All interior lights recently replaced, including odometer, radio, A/C controls, and OBD -I just removed all the old faded tint from probably 1995, so the windows are fresh and clear -A LOT of extra goodies come with it. -OEM Spare M-Contour Rim (no tire/never used) -Euro 3.5" Comforti C/F Intake -US Air Box -US MAF -Extra ///M badge -OEM Engine Fan -US intake boot(x2) -All original Manuals, window sticker, and leather bound BMW binder for all your paperwork CONS(not many): -Paint: just a few minor chips/scratches, nothing major -Driver seat release cable is broken at the very end, so it doesn't manually release forward. It has been this way since before i owned it. It's an easy fix, but I haven't had any need to get around to it. -JUST recently the passenger side window motor has decided to work when it wants to. The window only gets stuck up, not down. Super annoying, but all it needs is a new passenger window motor and it'll be fine. As far as shipping goes, buyer are responsible for pick up/transportation. If buyer is within a 150 mile radius, I am willing to arrange a meeting/drop-off. I can work with pretty much any mode of payment. Cash in hand is ALWAYS preferred though. |

Former BMW M boss and Maserati CEO killed in freak motorcycle accident
Mon, 19 Aug 2013It's a tragic coincidence that on the same weekend the BMW M4 Coupe Concept was introduced in Monterey, one of the men most integral to BMW's M and Motorsports divisions, Karl-Heinz Kalbfell, was killed in England. Kalbfell, a vintage motorcycle enthusiast, was set to compete in the Lansdowne Classic Series at Brands Hatch and had an accident during a practice session. After going wide at Druids Corner and falling, he was hit by a competitor following close behind and died of his injuries after being transported to hospital.
Kalbfell, an engineer, began his career at BMW in 1977 in the communications department; a decade later he was chairman of BMW M GmbH, overseeing development of some of the cars responsible for the myth of M. In 1994 he was named chairman of BMW Motorsport, and his cap full of feathers includes getting the BMW V12 into the McLaren F1, getting the BMW V8 into two Morgan cars, along with developing BMW's Formula One engine and return to the sport. Not incidentally, he also assumed leadership of Project Rolls-Royce after BMW bought the British marque in 1998, which means he oversaw the Goodwood factory upfit and the creation of the Phantom.
He left Rolls-Royce for a brief stint at Fiat, heading Alfa Romeo and Maserati, then went into consulting for clients like Lotus and Paragon, who built the Artega GT. As Autocar notes, Kalbfell "had an abiding sense that customers needed to be attracted to cars by their aura and reputation, not just their engineering." He will be missed.
Porsche tops JD Power APEAL study for 12th time
Wed, Jul 27 2016JD Power's 2016 Automotive Performance, Execution, and Layout (APEAL) study hasn't changed much this time around with Porsche coming in at No.1 for the 12th consecutive year, while BMW was close behind in second. Jaguar and Mercedes-Benz tied for third with Land Rover, Lexus, and Lincoln tied for No.5. The APEAL Study, according to JD Power, measures owners' level of excitement and emotional attachment across 77 parameters. Brands and cars are rated on a 1,000-point scale. The study found that new cars with modern safety features including low speed collision avoidance and blind spot monitoring have higher APEAL scores than vehicles without the features. The overall industry score increased from 798 to 801, which JD Power claims was helped by the launch of a variety of new vehicles. This year, 22 out of 30 new or redesigned cars received a higher score than the vehicle's respective segment average. Porsche is once again at the top of the list as the automaker's score increased by three points to 877. BMW outscored Jaguar to take second place with a score of 859, while the British automaker dropped three points from last year with 852 points. Volkswagen overtook Mini to become the top-ranked non-premium brand with 809 points, while the latter automaker trailed behind by one point. At the end of the scale, Smart came in at the very bottom for the second year in a row with a score of 745 points, which represents an increase of 62 points over last year. Fiat's score increased by six points to 755, but still confined the automaker to second-to-worst place for a consecutive year. Mitsubishi's score increased to 770, up from 755, to become the fourth-worst brand, while Jeep fell to third-worst with a decrease in seven points to 756. General Motors received six segment-level awards, followed by Hyundai with five, and BMW and VW earning four apiece. Surprise segment victories include the Chevrolet Camaro, which outscored the Dodge Challenger, and the Lexus RC which ranked above the BMW 4 and 3 Series.

BMW Motorrad celebrates 90 years with new R nineT roadster [w/video]
Wed, 16 Oct 201390 years is a heck of a long time by any standard, and as good a cause for celebration as we've ever seen. That's how long BMW has been making motorcycles for, and it's celebrating with the retro cafe racer you see here - as promised and previewed.
Dubbed the R nineT (for 90 years), the latest product from BMW Motorrad traces its roots back to the original 1923 BMW R 32. And like the original, it's powered by a boxer twin - in this case, a 1,170cc air- and oil-cooled unit delivering 110 horsepower and 88 pound-feet of torque. All that muscle is packed into a classically-styled roadster that looks ready to line up next to a Moto Guzzi Griso, Triumph Thruxton or Ducati SportClassic.
The neo-retro styling drapes a unique tubular steel spaceframe chassis that uses the engine as a stressed member. The inverted telescopic front fork is borrowed from the S 1000 RR superbike and a paralever swingarm with spring strut suspends the rear. That's where you'll find a removable rear pillion for an extra passenger and dual tailpipes mounted on the left side, swappable for a titanium Akrapovic exhaust - just one of many customization options BMW Motorrad is offering for the R nineT.
