2005 BMW X3 3.0i for sale by private owner, just over 116,000 miles.

This car has received all regular scheduled maintenance and runs like a beast. Rear suspension and transmission have been recently serviced, and the Cooper tires are also fairly new with plenty of tread left.

I have a CARFAX report available for the buyer that shows this car has had three owners total, and that I've owned the car since 58,000 miles. The car has been in one low-speed accident last year that required replacement of the front bumper cover (airbags didn't even deploy). No history of flood or hail damage. Clear title with no issues.

* Black exterior with minimal chips/scratches
* Black leather interior with no damage to seats
* Original BMW floor mats are in great shape, no stains
* Upgraded sound system with Infiniti speakers and AUX jack built into console
* Navigation unit with 7" screen also functions as MP3 player, Bluetooth phone, back-up camera, has DVD add-on option
* Power seats, power windows, power door locks
* Keyless entry
* OEM alarm system with integrated interior motion sensor, vehicle tip-over sensor (alarm goes off if someone tries to steal your wheels)
* Tow kit installed with 2" hitch
* Huge power panoramic sunroof that covers the front and back seats
* Fold down second row seats
* Headliner is clean with no sags
* Cargo area cover included (a $250 value)

The only damage to the car is as follows:

* Rear bumper cover has some scuffs and mild buckling from backing into something (does not interfere with driving or tow hitch, just cosmetic)
* Cargo area has scuff marks from use on the plastic trim panels
* Windshield has two small rock chips (both are about half the size of a dime and have been repaired by SafeLite, so the windshield will pass inspection)
* Center console needs to be recoated with rubber (I will do this for you before selling the car)
* Front right kidney grille has been repaired, is almost not noticeable unless you were looking for it
* This car has been in one accident since I've owned it, but the damage was less than $2,500 (front bumper cover was replaced, airbags didn't deploy)

Please contact me with any questions! Thanks!

Creative minds build lightweight Lambos and Bugattis with cardboard and pedals

Fri, May 1 2020

As manufacturers continue their quests to reduce the weight of their vehicles, they switch out heavy steel for lighter materials such as aluminum, carbon fiber, titanium, and sometimes even magnesium. But they've been ignoring a cheap alternative that is widely available: cardboard. Leave it to two visionaries from Vietnam to crack the code and build supercars and superbikes out of the versatile paper product. Vietnamese YouTube channel NHET TV, via CarScoops, might only have a year under its belt, but in that short amount of time, it has amassed more than 350,000 subscribers. What initially started out as a random collection of harmless pranks, trolls, and makeshift time-killers has blossomed into an entertaining channel of ultra-low-budget car and motorcycle builds.  The first video posted is a paper plane competition, but the second video shows the first appearance of a vehicle, a Ducati Panigale made out of cardboard and a bicycle. This isn't like Paper Mario with a two-dimensional silhouette, it's a close-enough three-dimensional replica. That project was admittedly pretty rough, but the work has only improved as the channel has matured.  Throughout the past year, NHET TV has stuck with high-performance transportation for inspiration. They've built projects that mimic a Lamborghini Sian, a Lamborghini Aventador SVJ, a Ferrari LaFerrari FXX K, a Bugatti Chiron, a BMW S 1000 RR, and a Yamaha YZF-R6, among others. Some of the builds, such as the Bugatti, go beyond the typical cardboard-body-on-bicycle-frame. As seen in the video below, the NHET TV built a tubular frame for the car using spare bike parts that they welded together. The Bug even has a custom steering column and steering wheel, though the high-quality model continues to use bike chains and pedals for power. The SVJ might be the most advanced vehicle, as it has a real engine for power and has custom reverse gearing. These guys are creating fun out of the limited resources they do have, and that's what right now is all about. Enjoy the videos below and watch more on the full NHET TV channel.

BMW M135i vs. Mercedes A45 AMG in Euro small-lux throwdown

Fri, 19 Jul 2013

BMW and Mercedes-Benz - please, please, please bring the M135i and A45 AMG hatchbacks to North America. For as long as we can remember, buyers in the New World have been forced to look longingly at Europe and Great Britain and the excellent super hatches that are so routinely offered there. And while we're quite content with the Ford Focus ST and Volkswagen GTI, having a 360-horse five-door with a premium, content-rich interior sounds quite nice.
Our envy for Europe has grown after watching the latest video from Drive, which stars Chris Harris, the Mercedes-Benz A45 AMG and the BMW M135i. This latest battle between MB and BMW takes place on both road and track, with Harris providing a running commentary. If you're interested in the upcoming Mercedes CLA45 AMG, you should pay special attention to the section on the A45, as the two are essentially fraternal twins. While the video is a bit on the long side, it provides a comprehensive rundown of both cars, giving those of us in North America just a small taste of what we're missing.

Are you the BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe?

Fri, 31 Jan 2014

Thanks to Austrian website Autofilou (via Jalopnik), we now have our first look at what appears to be the upcoming BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe - the four-door version of the new 4 Series coupe, which itself is based on the 3 Series sedan. Makes total sense, right?
Nevertheless, in our First Drive of the 4 Series coupe, we found it to be a much more engaging experience than the 3 Series on which its based. And if this new 4GC follows in those footsteps, it could prove to be a better 3 Series sedan than, well, the 3 Series sedan.
Expect the 4 Series Gran Coupe to come in 428i and 435i flavors, with a 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-four in the base car and a 3.0-liter turbo-six in the higher-end model. Of course, BMW will likely bring a range-topping M4 Gran Coupe to market not long thereafter.
