Supercharged E46 M3.
I am sad to sell my midnight blue M3. This car has undergone several track specific upgrades since i bought it 2 years ago when it was in stock condition. I fitten the ESS stage 1 supercharger 6 months ago. It makes 445hp at the crank, 385 at the wheels!!!! Other track upgrades include: A 4.1 BMW racing differential, really tightening the gear ratios for track. A full stainless exhaust system from headers back, which sounds incredible! (I have the stock muffler if it is too loud). A light flywheel & racing clutch system. An upgraded suspension kit (KW v2) with front and rear coilovers, camber plates and H&R sway bars, lowering the car 30mm and making it corner extremely well. Brake rotors have been updgraded to vented rotors. I have 2 sets of brake pads (street / track) Street pads (Hawk) are track rated anyway, and the track pads (performance friction) are incredible. They have had 2 days use and cost $500, but are too squeaky for the street. I currently have Federal SS winter tires fitted for my daily commute. However, I also have a set of 4 Hankook RS3s for the track costing $1200 last fall. They have had 3 days use. The car has been maintained by a BMW specialist mechanic and had routine brake fluid and oil changes after every track event. In the last 6 months I have had all 6 coils and spark plugs replaced. Also as preventative maintenance for the drivetrain, I had the rod bearings, center support bearing and guibo replaced. I have all receipts over the last 2 years. This car's mechanics are like new and is ready to race!! You are welcome to have it inspected by anyone. |

Weekly Recap: The divergent paths of Tesla and Fisker
Sat, 02 Aug 2014
There's no doubt that Tesla is downshifting while Fisker has been grinding its gears. But it wasn't always that way.
In the wake of Tesla's recent success, it's easy to forget that there were once two California electric carmakers with bright futures.
Bunny couldn't out hop a BMW M3 on-track
Mon, 15 Jul 2013Driving a car is a dangerous hobby, and not just because of other drivers or poor roads. Sometimes, it seems like even the wildlife is out to get you, as evidenced here, here, here, here and here. Now, we can add one more unfortunate car-versus-animal encounter to the tally.
Perhaps believing that this bright orange BMW M3 GTS was a very fast, very loud carrot, an unfortunate bunny leaped into its windshield in a brutal accident at a Polish racetrack. Considering the M3's speed at the time, 89 miles per hour, the passengers are lucky to be okay. Obviously, Bugs didn't make it.
The BMW isn't in such great shape, though. The windshield is in a bit of a state, with safety glass sprayed all over the passenger side of the cabin. There doesn't appear to be any sheetmetal damage, at least from what we can tell from the video. Although there isn't any blood, the hit is really hard. The initial point of impact is at 0:57. Check out the video below.
Playboy reveals its 2013 Cars of the Year
Thu, 20 Dec 2012Vaunted men's magazine Playboy knows that its readers are nearly as interested in cars as they are in the female anatomy... sorry, we thought we could write that with a straight face. Anyway, the buff-book does occasionally fill some of its spreads with sexy metal, to accent all the rest of the sexiness.
To wit, the magazine has unveiled its feature on the 2013 Cars of the Year. Without giving us much in the way of criteria for the awards, nor a clear framing of the categories ("Responsible Ride" is a particularly challenging concept, especially when you consider that the Mazdaspeed3 was the winner), Playboy has nevertheless highlighted what we assume to be it's favorite 12 or 13 (depending on how you count) cars from the 2013 model year.
Headlining the class is the Porsche 911, which Playboy writers single out for having "remarkable electronic voodoo." BMW M5 is named "Slickest Sports Sedan" though the Cadillac ATS then follows on because "we couldn't resist giving the new Caddy a shout-out." The rest of the picks are pretty conventional (save, perhaps, the Honda Fit EV as "Ace Electric"), even if the categories and methodology are fairly wonky. Cruise through or gallery for a taste or check out the full list, here. The site is safe for work, and you can legitimately (this time) say that you were reading it for the articles.
