1996 BMW Z3 Roadster Convertible, 5 Speed Manual Transmission, Custom 19" Wheels, Red & Black, Very Low Miles, Collectors Car .... This is a very beautiful example of the first year BMW Z3. It has been a 'Garage Queen' for many years. I have owned the vehicle for several years. It had 27,900 miles on it when I purchased it and the vehicle now has 30,942 miles. The wheels and tires were new less than 4,000 miles ago. The exhaust pipe system was recently replaced and the battery was also recently replaced. An aftermarket WowAuto sound system has been installed with CD, Radio, TV and IPOD type musical connectivity. The last picture shows the retractable WowAuto flat panel control screen and also the TV / mirror adapter.
This is a highly collectible vehicle that is also very enjoyable to drive. The overall condition of this vehicle is superb. Maintenance has been performed at BMW Dealerships. The interior leather and exterior paint and convertible top are all in very good condition. This vehicle drives wonderfully and there are no mechanical or driving issues.
I am in the process of a pending move and so I have decided to sell this classic BMW Z3. I recently took the car in for California smog certification and was advised by the smog technician that the emissions are very clean, however, the 'drive cycle ready monitors' are not setting so the final step of the smog certification could not be passed. They provided a drive cycle sequence of speeds and RPM's that the vehicle should run in order for the drive cycle ready monitors to set.
This vehicle is being sold without meeting the "CA Smog Certification" requirement. "The purchaser will be required to sign an agreement that the CA Smog Certification responsibility will be assumed by them".
If you need additional pictures of any particular portion of this vehicle I will provide them. The car is located in Temecula, CA and you are welcome to have a mechanic of your choice evaluate the vehicle before you bid.
Pick-up is in Temecula, CA.
Payment by cash or cashiers check only.

Six 'shut up and take my money' cars
Tue, 11 Nov 2014Any time you see this iconic moment in pop culture - Shut up and take my money! - posted in response to a new car reveal, rumor for an upcoming model or even lip-service to a vehicle that should exist, you can bet there's some intrinsic good in the idea. Though depending on the person offering up the cash, that good could take the form of extraordinary form, functionality, weight savings, power, handling, etc. You get the idea.
In fact, when I first proposed this list, I reached out to the Autoblog staff to help me brainstorm. Here are some of the ideas they offered up that I ultimately didn't use: Jaguar XE Coupe, Pagani Huayra Roadster, Mercedes-Benz S-Class "parade car" (cabriolet), Morgan 3-Wheeler with Ducati V-twin, Ford Transit Connectamino (pickup), Mercedes CLA63 AMG, Ford Fusion 5.0, BMW i8 Spyder, Lexus RC-F Shooting Brake, Volvo XC90 Polestar. Oh, and things we collectively wanted to stick Dodge's Hellcat in were almost as numerous as models that Fiat Chrysler Automotive currently makes (though none quite so compelling as the Grand Cherokee you see above.)
Ultimately though, while I used a couple of ideas from my colleagues, the list of cars I'd shell out for unquestionably is very personal. Though it isn't complete, what follows is a selection of cars whose very existence would prompt me - or the trust-fund-baby versions of me - to utter without hesitation: "Shut up and take my money."
Toyota launches BMW-powered Verso in Europe
Tue, 03 Dec 2013BMW makes some sweet-revving engines, but its own vehicles aren't the only ones running BMW engines. So do the latest from Rolls-Royce and Mini, of course, as well as a handful of Peugeots and Citroëns thanks to its joint engine program with PSA. Wiesmann uses BMW engines, as did the famous McLaren F1. And now we can add one more to the list.
That would be the Toyota Verso, a Corolla-based minivan which Toyota builds in Turkey and sells in Europe and a few other markets overseas. The Verso is also now officially the first beneficiary of the partnership between Toyota and BMW as the Japanese automaker has released the MPV with BMW's 1.6-liter turbodiesel four.
The 111-horsepower engine is coupled to a Toyota transmission and joins the Verso range as the fourth (and least powerful) engine in the lineup, alongside the 122hp 2.0 diesel and the gasoline options with 1.6 liters and 160 hp and 1.8 for 180. Future collaborations between the two automakers will include fuel-cell development, a new joint sportscar platform, lightweight bodywork research and a new generation of lithium-air batteries. See the press release below for further details.
2014 BMW 328d rated at 32/45 mpg
Wed, 31 Jul 2013BMW still hasn't released official fuel economy numbers for its diesel-powered 2014 328d, but now, those mileage ratings have been posted on the EPA's FuelEconomy.gov website. As expected, the 328d is quite an efficient little machine, with the rear-wheel-drive sedan good for 32 miles per gallon in the city and 45 mpg highway. That even bests the 30/42 mpg of the smaller Volkswagen Jetta TDI.
The last time BMW offered a diesel 3 Series in our market, it was the six-cylinder 335d, which - while mighty quick and excellent to drive - was only offered as a rear-wheel-drive sedan and was rated at 23 mpg city and 36 mpg highway. For 2014, BMW will offer the 328d with optional xDrive all-wheel drive, though that reduces the fuel economy numbers to 31/43 mpg. Beyond that, the BMW will even sell you a 328d xDrive wagon, which nets the same 31/43 mpg rating, according to FuelEconomy.gov.
Look for the 2014 BMW 328d to hit dealerships this fall, and when it launches, it will be the only diesel offering in its class (until the next Mercedes-Benz C-Class arrives, anyway). Lexus and Infiniti will offer hybrid versions of the IS and Q50, respectively, but we've always had a taste for torque, and the 328d's 2.0-liter engine with 180 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of twist shouldn't disappoint.
