The car has 51,000 miles and a long life ahead of it. There are a few isolated cosmetic damages; the previous owner scuffed the front right of the bumper on a curb, but it is now better-protected by metal skid plates I installed on the bottom of the bumper. The paint is in good condition--no dents or major scratches aside from the bumper--though there are minor imperfections. The interior is in great condition overall, especially the leather throughout, except for some scratches on the driver's side door sill. I have always driven and treated the car with great care for its longevity: minimal engine load until both oil and coolant are fully warmed up (which takes longer with this car than many), carefully avoid potholes and rough roads, used a sun shade when parked to avoid UV damage to the interior, personally cleaned and conditioned the leather, etc etc... The car drives incredibly. Even before modifications, this was one of BMW's fastest and lightest production cars. With the stage-2 supercharger kit, it attains supercar-like performance and high overall refinement for an unbelievable value (at least now that I've spent the money and time tuning the supercharger for you!). Maintenance is completely up to date with a full records history--most importantly, the expensive Inspection II service has been recently performed, which includes a painstaking manual valve adjustment. I personally found the best BMW dealer tech on the peninsula and gave him a cash tip to ensure his work during this important job was of utmost quality. If you buy a lower-milage Z4 M, you'll be looking at well over $2,000 in the near future for this service. Test drives can only be offered to serious buyers. This car is extremely powerful, and while safe and capable (side air bags, stability & traction control, astounding brakes), it needs to be treated with respect. Headline features / improvements: - ESS VT2-500 Supercharger Kit--"stage 2", including a large and extremely effective intercooler. Rated 500 BHP and dyno-tested at corresponding RWHP. Cost over $15,000 with professional installation, testing, and tuning. - High-tech digital gauge system integrated behind the rear-view mirror glass. Invisible with the car off, seen as an overlay on the image in the mirror when the car is running. Air/Fuel ratio and Boost gauges are present on the left and right, as is a GPS-assisted Radar/Laser/Red Light Camera detector. Over $3,500 to purchase and install. I am going to miss this on my new car! This is a really unique feature, but I don't have photos right now (check out radar-mirror.com) - BMW European exhaust manifold. improves performance beyond the standard supercharger kit, and produces a stunning exhaust note. Carefully installed personally (an entire day's work). Over $1,000 in parts. - LoJack Vehicle Recovery system. - Adjustable camber plates in front and lower suspension arms in the rear from the best suspension part manufacturers available for the Z4M. - Full set of expanded-width Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires (considered by many to be the best performance tires available). Plenty of tread left (more than 50%). - Brand new front brakes, less than 1,000 miles on them. The front brakes are about 4x more expensive than the rear, and lasted the whole life of the car, so they will not have to be redone until after 100,000 miles. - High quality window tint on the side and rear glass (no bubbles, looks stock but keeps the heat out! - Numerous dealership-installed replacements, including a new VANOS system (!!! normally $5k+ replacement and the major problem area with factory S54), BMW OEM windshield (original cracked by a rock), navigation system screen, interior trim pieces, and shift knob. - Extensive, detailed service history and full original manual (leather binder). - Tons of extras like BMW perfect-fit sun visor, touch up paint (haven't needed to use it yet), short shift kit, new set of spark plugs (though the currently installed ones will last at least 30k more), the original intake parts from before the supercharger and original US exhaust headers, etc. - Bavarian Soundwerks Speaker Upgrade - Navigation system with Bluetooth connectivity (part of the premium package) - Frequent changes of all fluids, including half the factory required milage on engine oil; supercharger oil, differential and transmission oil, brake fluid. Always top-tier fuel manufacturers. - Much, much more! More details on the powertrain and driving characteristics: - Supercharger is a centrifugal type, basically a belt-and-gear-driven turbocharger compressor wheel. Maximum boost is about 7-8PSI, which builds roughly linearly throughout the RPM band. - In addition to a large intercooler, the oil cooler is tripled in size and keeps oil temperatures slightly lower than stock, even under load. - The S54 motor is a 3.2L inline-6 with a 7,800RPM redline; at the time of its launch it had the highest naturally aspirated output per liter (333HP from 3.2L) of any BMW engine in history, and remains one of very few engines to break 100HP / Liter without forced induction. - The motor's natural tendency to make the greatest power at higher RPM combines with the centrifugal supercharger's own boost profile to produce a truly exceptional surge of power from 5,000RPM-7,500RPM. - S54's have individual throttle valves directly in front of the intake valves for each cylinder, which provides amazing throttle response. Combined with the always-on supercharger that has boost at the ready while driving, at 2,000RPM or above the response is absolutely immediate.

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.
BMW X5 gets full battery of performance visuals
Wed, 12 Feb 2014If you think BMW toned down its third-generation X5 CUV a little too much with its latest redesign, the new M Performance Parts line of optional parts may give you a chance to inject in a new sense of style.
The aesthetic parts include new carbon fiber pieces for the mirror caps, front splitter, rear diffuser and rear aero flaps. There's also a rear spoiler, high-gloss black kidney grilles, M Performance rocker panel decals and double-spoke 21-inch wheels with performance tires. The interior upgrades are similar with an available Alcantara steering wheel with carbon fiber trim, stainless steel pedals and carbon fiber gearshift trim.
Not all of the M Performance Parts are about style. The M Performance Power Kit sharpens throttle response and boosts power of the X5 xDrive35i to 320 horsepower and 332 pound-feet of torque, an improvement of 20 hp and 32 lb-ft, and an optional exhaust with chrome tips improves its sound. For buyers looking for improved stopping power, the M Performance Brake Kit adds six-piston calipers with 19-inch steel rotors.
2016 Mazda MX-5 Miata named World Car of the Year
Thu, Mar 24 2016Kicking off Day Two of the New York Auto Show, the World Car of the Year awards are finally being handed out. The overall winner is, as God himself intended, the Mazda MX-5 Miata. It beat the Audi A4 and the Mercedes-Benz GLC-Class. The unique thing about these awards are that they aren't limited to the US domestic market (that's why they're called the World Car of the Year awards). For example, nominees for the overall award included the Skoda Superb, Renault Kadjar, and Subaru Levorg. In the Performance category, the forbidden fruit was repped by the Honda Civic Type R. But both the Civic and the Mercedes-AMG C63 Coupe were beat out by a far more expensive competitor – the new Audi R8. The fourth-generation Toyota Prius and the second-generation Chevrolet Volt, were two of the big finalists for the World Green Car of the Year award. They both lost out, though, to the Mirai fuel-cell car. Yes, a hydrogen car beat out two of the world's premiere hybrids. The luxury race that was perhaps the hardest to predict. That's because each of the three finalists have received near universal acclaim. In the end, though, the BMW 7 Series beat out the Audi Q7 and Volvo XC90. Finally, we have the World Car Design of the Year, where the overall winner (MX-5) and the Mazda CX-3 faced off against the new Jaguar XE. While both the CX-3 and XE are handsome vehicles, the WCOTY committee realized the answer is always Miata, and awarded Mazda's iconic roadster another 2016 award.

MAZDA MX-5 - 2016 WORLD CAR OF THE YEAR NEW YORK – March 24, 2016 - For Immediate Release The Road to World Car journey ended today with the declaration of the MAZDA MX-5 as the 2016 World Car of the Year. The winner was announced during a press conference hosted by the New York International Auto Show, Bridgestone Corporation and Autoneum. 2016 marks the 10th anniversary of the partnership between World Car and the New York show, and the third consecutive year that the World Car Awards have retained their ranking as the number one automotive awards program in the world in terms of media reach. Mazda Motor Corporation is no stranger to the World Car Awards program – now in its 12th year. The Mazda2/Mazda Demio was the 2008 World Car of the Year. While the Mazda3 (2014), Mazda6 (2013) and Mazda MX-5 have all earned "Top Three in the World" status as voted by our 70 plus international automotive journalists that make up the jury.
