1999 Bmw Z3 2.8 Roadster on 2040-cars
Hamden, Connecticut, United States
I inherited this car from my father 3 years ago which he has owned since 2005. Everything works, not issues at all. Car drives great and handles great. Engine is stock and was never modified. Tires have about 3,000 miles on them which they have plenty of tread still on them. Convertible roof was replaced a few yeas ago which still looks new. When my father had this car it was very well taken care of and stored in a covered location during the winters. When I inherited it I only drove it on sunny days and stored it in my garage during the winter which it was covered the entire winter. It's been in the rain maybe 2 time since I've owned it. Paint is in good condition. The car is red, the yellowish hue is from the sun. Please reference all pictures to compare. I did upgrade all 6 speakers to Polk Audio and there's also an 8 1/2 Kicker sub. The sub is not currently hooked up because I put the stock stereo back in. These is a small cut out for the USB connection which is located in the center console tray. This car is fully loaded. You can switch from automatic to manual at the touch of a button on the center console. Power windows, power mirrors, power convertible top, heated seats etc. The only reason I'm selling this car is to purchase a jeep. I'm not really into sports cars. Anyone that's local please feel free to contact me if you'd like to see the car. Vehicle is also for sale locally. Milage will vary slightly as I will drive the car if someone wants to see it. Buyer is responsible for shipping and/or pickup. Title will be given once full amount is securely deposited into my bank account. Check out Edmunds review on this car. |

2014 BMW M6 Gran Coupe
Wed, 30 Oct 2013One of the many perks of this job is, not surprisingly, the cars. It's relatively easy to snag the keys to a vehicle for a special occasion, whether that be for a road trip, tailgating or helping a friend move. And while sometimes the tailgating might happen with a Ford F-150 instead of a Range Rover and the road trip might be in a minivan rather than a Mercedes-Benz S-Class, occasionally the stars align and a special vehicle arrives for an equally special time.
That's exactly how I found myself dressed to the nines and behind the wheel of the BMW M6 Gran Coupe, a $135,375 (as-tested) rocket ship, en route to a rare multi-wedding weekend to celebrate with two pairs of my closest friends on the biggest day of their lives (a very special congratulations to Kara and Zach, and Laura and Andrew). Continuing with our nuptial theme, the M mechanicals and the 6 Series Gran Coupe body are a match made in heaven.
Permanent erection lawsuit against BMW thrown out
Wed, 19 Mar 2014The California man who claimed that he suffered from a 20-month erection after a four-hour ride on his BMW K1100RS motorcycle (similar model pictured above) has had his case dismissed. It seems the court found his claims too hard to believe.
Henry Wolf filed a product liability lawsuit against BMW and seatmaker Corbin-Pacific in the California Superior Court in April 2012 after he claimed a motorcycle ride in September 2010 caused a long-term case of priapism from the "ridge-like" saddle design. He asked for compensation for lost wages, medical expenses and emotional distress from both companies.
Nearly two years later, according to Visor Down, Judge James J. McBride decided that the case didn't have enough supporting evidence. A urologist testified that the plaintiff had priapism, but the court rejected the testimony of a neurologist who claimed the motorcycle's vibration caused the disorder. The defendants presented testimony from the bike's former and subsequent owners. Corbin-Pacific CEO Mike Corbin also spoke in the company's defense.
BMW i8 with 500+ horsepower in the cards?
Wed, 22 Oct 2014While BMW makes plenty of machinery to keep enthusiasts interested, its most enticing models are often based on more ordinary ones. That's what made the arrival of the i8 so captivating, emerging as the first stand-alone BMW sports coupe since the M1. But if its dual purpose - trying its best to both embrace the earth and traverse it rapidly - somehow left you disappointed, the next development could prove to fix that.
According to Automobile, BMW is working on a more potent i8S model. The hardcore version of the hybrid sports car would offer more power and a stiffened chassis to make it that much more aggressive. The Bavarian automaker is reportedly still evaluating two potential powertrain options: The first would pair a 2.0-liter twin-turbo four-cylinder good for 320 horsepower to an electric motor with another 204 hp. The second would use a 3.0-liter straight six with 480 hp and an electric motor with 109 hp. Both would be mated to a nine-speed dual-clutch transmission and an integrated starter motor packing an extra 27 hp.
Either way, we'd be looking at a combined output well in excess of 500 horsepower - far more than the existing i8's 228-hp turbo three and 129-hp electric motor - dropping the 0-62 time down from 4.1 seconds to an estimated 3.5. Couple that to a more advanced carbon chassis, wider tires and other goodies, and the i8 would be transformed into a far more capable performance machine than it already is.
