This auction is for a single owner, 2004 BMW M3 in excellent original condition!

It's black on black with the optional 19" wheels shod in Continental Extreme Contact DWS tires with plenty of tread left.

This car has always and only ever been serviced at BMW of Towson and strictly by the book. Every service ever called for was performed in sequence and on time including the very expensive valve adjustments and inspections. There were three recalls of which this model year were susceptible - all three were immediately performed, again at Towson BMW. The only service ever not performed at Towson BMW was the brand new OEM clutch assembly that was installed by Pikesville Automotive just two weeks ago! While out, the transmission and flywheel were inspected and found to be in proper operational condition. The SMG ECU transmission control module was reprogrammed following the installation and now the transmission shifts fast and flawlessly through all six gears! They also changed the oil with fully synthetic Castrol 10W60 and replaced the battery. All records are on file back to 2007 at Towson BMW. Apparently their system was purged of everything prior to that year. I can furnish those records as well.

The car does have 163,500 miles so I won't say it's in perfect condition but it is in great condition. The exterior has a couple small minor dings that any decent paintless dent repair guy could easily pop out. No major dents, scratches or scuffs. NO ACCIDENTS!! The wheels are in less than great condition but are perfectly functional - there is a bit of curb rash on each wheel, though no bends or dents. Otherwise, the exterior looks like the garage kept car it is - GREAT!

The interior is also in very good condition. The leather is excellent with no tears, scuffs or wear marks, front or rear. The carpet and headliner are also great. The only issue with the interior is the bit of paint crackling around the shift knob and window switches on the center console and steering wheel...this is strictly cosmetic and really doesn't look that bad at all. Otherwise, the interior is also in very good shape.

Mechanically the car needs nothing to my knowledge. It starts right up and drives the way it was designed to from the factory...like a champ! All the bells and whistle - window switches, sunroof, power and heated seats, door locks, Harmon Kardon stereo, etc - function properly.

The car is in all original condition except for the front corner and side lights which were replaced with the darker euro-style lights that look a lot better next to the factory Xenon lights.

Not much else to report at this point. I encourage any interested bidders to come see and test drive the vehicle but if you'd rather not and just bid, please do so with confidence. Trust me, the car is as described. 

Cash payment is preferred, followed by check and then Paypal if necessary. Title is in hand and clear.

Feel free to call with any question.

Thanks,

JAS

Mini JCW Paceman vs. BMW M135i in family faceoff

Mon, 15 Apr 2013

Over the last year, we've had the chance to drive two of the most exciting hatchbacks in the BMW family - the BMW M135i and the Mini Paceman John Cooper Works - but Autocar has managed to get the two corporate cousins together for a head-to-head comparison. Just like our initial impressions of the Paceman JCW, Autocar has little to complain about this new 215-horsepower hatchback... until it begins to factor in the faster, better-mannered and similarly priced M135i.
Despite laying down an extra 100 hp and delivering a 0-60 time that is almost two seconds quicker, the M135i carries the same price tag of 29,535 pounds in the UK; US pricing for the Paceman starts at $36,200, while it still isn't even clear if the US will be getting the M135i. Even more surprising is the fact that the Paceman falls short of the M135i in regards to rear seat and cargo volume, and just barely squeaks out a win in the fuel economy department. Scroll down to watch the BMW versus Mini hot hatch battle.

BMW X5 driver repeatedly fails to understand big rig braking distances

Fri, 19 Sep 2014

Nobody should be shocked that a big, heavy vehicle like a semi truck takes a longer distance to stop than the average passenger car; it's just basic physics. However, this BMW X5 driver seemingly has a major problem grasping the concept, and it results in some serious damage to the back of his SUV.
The whole incident is very confusing to watch. The BMW doesn't even seem to have a reason to slow down before the semi slams into the back of it at fairly high speed. But to make the situation even weirder, the crashes just keep happening again and again.
To give the BMW driver a little credit, he appears amazingly calm when surveying the damage afterward. But you have to wonder what this guy was thinking when trying a harebrained move like this. Check out the video to watch the carnage unfold.

BMW M4 Coupe laps 'Ring in 7:52, bests outgoing M3

Thu, 19 Jun 2014

Comparing Nürburgring Nordschleife lap times is a bit of a black art, especially when looking at times officially set by manufacturers matched against other sources. Driver skill and weather conditions play a huge roll in determining a quality time. Still, it appears BMW fans have reason to celebrate because the new M4 Coupe beat the previous-generation M3 by 13 seconds in a recent test by Germany's Sport Auto magazine.
Sport Auto conducts what it calls the Supertest, where it runs performance cars around the 'Ring and the short course at Hockenheim to create its own database of comparable times. The M4 with a dual-clutch transmission, ceramic brakes and Michelin Pilot Supersport tires managed a quality 7 minutes 52 second lap around the 12.8-mile course, compared to 8:05 from the last M3, according to BimmerPost. The new coupe also beat the magazine's posted times for the Audi RS5 Coupe, which did it in 7:59, and Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG with an 8:01, but couldn't quite match the 7:44 set by a 911 Carrera S. Still, BMW must be somewhat pleased with these results of its new 425-horsepower coupe because it posted the magazine's cover and an image of the time on its official M Facebook page.
While the M4 apparently stands up to contemporaries and predecessors, new generations of the AMG and RS models are reportedly on the horizon. In other words, more tests will come.
