2003 Bmw M3 Coupe Laguna Seca Blue, 6 Speed, 97,000 Miles, Loaded, Excellent on 2040-cars

Year:2003 Mileage:97800
Location:

United States

United States

 This is a totally original and mechanically unmodified M3.  The Laguna Seca Blue paint is all original and has no dents or scratches.  The front areas that are typically subject to tiny stone chips are covered by a thin clear material (I believe made by 3M) that is nearly invisible and was installed by the dealer when purchased new.  The car had a total service at 94,000 miles and will need nothing for many more miles.  This service included changing the following: transmission fluid, differential fluid, power steering fluid, brake fluid, coolant, engine oil and filter, cabin microfilter, air filter, fuel filter, vanos filter, spark plugs, and valve adjustment.  I know the history of the car and am the 3rd owner. The original owner sold the car to his niece at 40,000 miles and she sold it to me at 93,000 miles.  The carfax shows 5 owners due to state registration/title changes and a divorce name change.  Also, the carfax shows an accident report which was only a parking lot incident that caused the tail light assembly to be replaced.  In the 2 years I've owned the car there have been absolutely no maintenance issues and everything works on the car as it should. The interior of the car has no rips or tears as my pictures hopefully show. The significant options on the car are zenon headlights, Harmon Kardon stereo, and cold weather package which includes heated seats.  The only non stock additions are tinted windows and an I-phone adapter cord which is between the seats.  At 94,000 miles I installed BFG G-force sport tires that still appear new.  I also have the car manuals, 2 sets of keys, and maintenance records back to 40,000 miles.  Records prior to that can be gotten from a BMW dealer.  If a prospective bidder wants, I'd be happy to have the car inspected at a location of your choice and at your expense.  I am also willing to drive the car to an auction winner living in any major city in the country for .75c/mile (I'm retired and have lots of free time). If you have any questions, I'm available anytime at 678-570-3986.

2015 BMW i8 configurator is ready to show the future

Mon, 22 Sep 2014

Good news if you're one of the lucky few that can afford the new BMW i8. The high-performance hybrid's configurator has gone live on BMW USA's consumer website, meaning you can head in and customize till you drop.
If you've ever played with a BMW configurator, you'll instantly feel at home with the i8's. You have the choice of four trim packages (your author refuses to use BMW's pretentious "World" trim names), followed by wheel and exterior paint options. The interior choices are fixed to the trim level, so aside from trim, color and the choice of two wheel options, there isn't a lot to pick out on the i8.
Head on over and take a look.

2015 BMW X6 keeps it weird

Thu, 02 Oct 2014

Say what you will about the BMW X6 - odd and ugly as it may be, it's actually been sort of successful for the German automaker. BMW has now sold some 250,000 examples of the X6 since its launch, and the company's fastback-crossover-coupe-whatever-thing gets a host of meaningful updates for the 2015 model year while not straying from its original mission.
Aside from its revised styling, most noticeably set apart by its larger, X5-inspired headlamps, the biggest update for the US-spec X6 is the addition of a rear-wheel-drive model, the sDrive35i. This trim joins the all-wheel-drive xDrive35i and xDrive50i, and since you should all be capable of decoding BMW's weird naming structure by now, you know this means the X6 will be offered with a choice of 3.0-liter turbocharged six-cylinder and twin-turbo 4.4-liter V8 engines. Fuel economy figures have not been released yet, but BMW says the new powertrains are more efficient than before, mated exclusively to an eight-speed automatic transmission regardless of cylinder count.
Look for the updated X6 to hit US showrooms this fall, following its debut this week in Paris. Expect pricing to be revealed closer to the model's on-sale date. Have a look below for all of the details.

BMW 1 Series getting a small nose job

Tue, 06 Aug 2013

As BMW prepares to launch its new 2 Series lineup, it appears that the current 1 Series is going to get a little attention for itself. Based on these spy photos, the 1 Series hatchback (F20/F21), which is not offered in the US, will be getting a minor facelift in the near future.
From what we can see in these images, the updated 1 Series will definitely be getting a tweaked front end, with most of the attention focusing on the air intakes and grille. Our shooter tells us that it is possible that the headlights may yet be reworked in some way by the time we see this car in production form. It still isn't clear if we'll ever see this bodystyle or the next-gen 1 Series in the US, but our most recent report seems to indicate that the car's fortunes will depend somewhat on how well the Mercedes CLA-Class and Audi A3 sell.
