2003 BMW E46 ///M3- Alpine White/Black Nappa Leather
Rare Example of a clean super low mileage E46 ///M3. Only 47K Miles! Southern Car! No Accidents! 1 Owner! BMWCCA
Member. Clean Car-fax! Hard to Find Rare Combo! Alpine White Over Black Nappa Leather! Well-Maintained M3! Fluids
Regularly Flushed! Inspection I Completed. Subframe Inspection Completed. Rod Bearing Recall Performed. Always
Garage Kept. Non Smoker Owned.
This is a turn key E46 M3. I have been collecting cars for years and it is tough to find another one like this one.
I have most service records, books, and (2) keys. You will be hard pressed to find another E46 M3 like this one. I
would rate the Interior a 9.0/10 the Front seats are in good condition, the side bolsters do not have any wear on
them, all functions work and operate on the M seats as they should. The Front dash is very clean no cracks, the
Rear seats are excellent, and Rear deck-lid has no sun damage. The Exterior of the car is a solid 9.0/10 the front
bumper cover as minor stone marks from driving. Front bumper has not been drilled for license plate, the lip
spoiler on the back is all factory and original. The rare color combination looks very sharp with the 19"
Competition Package ZCP Style wheels. The wheels are curb and rash free, tires have only 5K miles on them.
Under the hood the car features the revolutionary S54 Power Plant (3.2L 333HP). These engines have been noted to be
one of the best M engines produced by BMW M GmbH. The E46 ///M3 in the early 2000's was known to be the car out
performing every car in its class and is one of the most recognized M cars in the market place today. Whether you
are buying this for yourself or your son/daughter, this ///M3 is a real head turner. This car is all stock. It has
never been modified. Tasteful cosmetic upgrades include 19" Competition Package ZCP Style Wheels, AC Schnitzer Roof
Spoiler, IND Painted Bumper Reflectors and 3M Tinted Windows. Recent Oil Service has been performed at BMW.
No expense has been spared to properly store, maintain and address preventative maintenance on this M3. I do not
need to sell this car and would prefer to keep it, but if this M3 goes to the right home I will be happy. This is a
true collectable as these cars age it is very difficult to find another one in with low mileage.

2013 BMW M3 Coupe Lime Rock Park Edition

Thu, 25 Jul 2013

Sic Transit Gloria
I like difficult cars. I like turbo "moments," dramatic weight distribution, low-grip, peaky power delivery, and overly quick steering, along with ultra-short wheelbases and any number of other non-racecar-perfect dynamic foibles. I love the newest generation of BMW cars and engines - all turbo'd up with tons of torque and power everywhere in the rev range, too. But what I think the enthusiast community will miss when this 2013 M3 Coupe becomes the 2014 M4 Coupe - replacing its idiosyncratic, small-displacement, revvy V8 for something like a triple-turbo, directly injected, inline six-cylinder powerhouse in the process - is the work it takes to drive the car fast and perfectly. Sometimes small flaws just make things better; my mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun, and all that.
The idea of this E92 M3 going away then, magnified by the loss of the M3 badge for the coupe, is at best bittersweet for me. This generation of M car is already surpassed in terms of raw thrills by the better-than-ever Mercedes-Benz C63, a car that doesn't ask its driver to sacrifice low-end grunt or the very latest in amenities in return for stellar backroad performance. Yet any time I've been lucky enough to lap a track in the M3, it has quickly become clear that the Bimmer is the better on-edge tool. With the freedom to wring the neck of the 4.0-liter V8 and room to exercise the lovely balance of the car, the E92 is hard to match (even six years after its debut).

NHTSA urges owners of recalled Takata airbag vehicles to take immediate action

Mon, 20 Oct 2014

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the Department of Transportation are taking the unusual step of issuing a followup press release urging owners of certain recalled vehicles "to act immediately" to fix their cars and trucks. The problem in question concerns the repair campaigns for rupturing Takata airbag inflators issued in June and covers a long list of models from Toyota, Lexus, Honda, Acura, Mazda, BMW, Nissan, Infiniti, Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet, GMC, Oldsmobile and Pontiac.
While NHSTA doesn't specifically say why the recall is vital in the new release, Toyota's own explanation in its newly announced renotification campaign earlier today sheds some new light on the topic. According to the Japanese automaker, in testing, Takata found a possible link between the rupturing airbag inflators and high humidity. NHTSA is advocating that all owners pursue repairs immediately if they haven't already done so already. This is especially crucial for those drivers especially in Florida, Puerto Rico, Guam, Saipan, American Samoa, Virgin Islands and Hawaii because of the humid conditions there.
We don't need to tell you how dangerous an inadvertent airbag deployment could be - even in a stationary vehicle - but adding to the Takata issue is fears that the deployment could lead to shrapnel being sprayed into the cabin.

Mazda CX-5 named Japan's Car of The Year, Subaru BR-Z wins "Special Award"

Mon, 03 Dec 2012

The Mazda CX-5 stamped its Kodo design and SkyActiv technology authority all over the Japan Car of the Year awards, taking the top prize ahead of the Subaru BRZ/Toyota GT 86. It is Mazda's second victory in the last ten years, the 2005 MX-5 claiming the same trophy, and the fourth time the Hiroshima company has won.
The award is decided by 60 local "automotive experts and journalists," and open to any passenger car released in Japan from November 1, 2011 to October 31, 2012 that has sold more than 500 units. Each judge gets 25 votes, his or her top vote getting 10 points, the rest of the points being spread among the judge's choice for the next best four cars.
The second-place getters were the Toyobaru twins with 318 votes, the surprise being they didn't beat or get any closer to the crossover. The Subaru BRZ did claw some mojo back, earning the Special Award given to cars that have made "an exceptional impact." The BMW 3 Series was third overall and won the Import Car of the Year award with plenty of room between it and the second place Range Rover Evoque.
