Super Clean Bmw M3 Autox & Track Ready. Many Upgrades A Muts See! No Rust! on 2040-cars
Galena, Ohio, United States
|
You are bidding on a super clean and completely rust free daily/autox 95 BMW M3. The car is ready to compete in autox & track days. Over $3,000 in suspension alone done recently! Do not let the mileage fool you, this car has been very well taken care of! I have literally a book a receipts for past and recent work done. Pulls really strong, good compression on all cylinders and sounds really nice. Paint shines up really well, zero rust anywhere to be found on the car but the car was keyed in 3 small spots and the previous owned tried to touch it up (pics shown). Other than than, I see no other major defects. Even though it has a roll bar I have kept a lot of the comfort features intact so it could be daily driven. The working onboard computer is still installed, cruise works, power windows, Alpine stereo (speakers sound cruddy) has heat and a/c. I haven't ran the a/c for over 2 years so it may be due for a recharge but will check as soon as the weather breaks. Interior is pretty good but the door cards are starting to show some age and peel at the bottoms but there is a new headliner installed. I believe the clutch may need bled as I noticed some chirp in 3rd gear on my last outing. Seemed to have went away once it warmed up a bit. My loss, your gain! I purchased this car over 2 years ago with the intent over autox and track days only but a busy work schedule has prevented me from enjoying the car. It has literally sat in my garage for almost 2 years with the exception of 4 autox events I attended in 2012. I have listed below all the upgrades/work performed within the last 900 miles as well as anything major repaired in the last 40k miles. In addition to the items below the car includes a fitted car cover and some other small odds and ends. Please feel free to contact me to see the car in person or if you have any questions. As is, no warranty expressed or implied. As always, good luck and happy bidding! **** Please feel free to email me with offers or requesting additional pictures as I have tones of them******

Watch the BMW i8 get wrung out on the Ring
Thu, 24 Apr 2014Been wondering where the heck the reviews of the all-new, plug-in-hybrid BMW i8 have been? After all, the car isn't exactly new, having debuted in concept form way back in September of 2009. In August of last year, we even tested a prototype of the new supercar. Despite that, though, we still haven't gotten a crack at the actual vehicle that will be sold to the public.
Well, we're happy to tell you that we're currently testing the i8 and will have a proper review for you soon. If, however, you're just aching for some coverage of the low-slung plug-in, we have a short video of it in action around Germany's famed Nürburgring.
Despite it's three-cylinder, turbocharged gas engine, the i8 sounds pretty angry as it laps the Ring. That is, until it has a little bit of a breakdown. According to the guys that caught the car on video, it appeared the i8 had a minor brake issue, and was parked on the side of the track for a good 15 minutes, with the driver pumping the brakes. We should probably just take this as proof, then, that manufacturers are actually using the Ring for testing, and not just messing about.
BMW M3 driving off cliff is a chilling PSA
Mon, 10 Jun 2013We're a little shocked that the unnamed owner of this cliff-diving E46 BMW M3 would upload the in-car footage of his accident to YouTube. Not only that, he uploaded two videos: raw footage of his roll down the cliff (it looks like somewhere in the Southwest, maybe Arizona) and a tribute video for his BMW that suffered the most severe consequences of understeer. Not only does uploading the videos leave him wide open for judgment by fellow enthusiasts (just read the YouTube comments), but we imagine if the police and his insurance company somehow don't know about the incident already, they will shortly. Scroll below to view for yourself.
The raw footage shows the sort of driving that led to the M3's violent tumble, and it serves as a good public service announcement reminder for everyone out there: Just like the Spengler's streams, double yellow lines aren't meant to be crossed. Also, hard driving is one thing, but hammering on public roads at speeds clearly above your skill levels as a driver is not only a recipe for legal trouble, it's a script for ruining your car at the very least, if not your life.
BMW i3 to be priced around $40,000
Mon, 06 May 2013According to Automotive News, the BMW i3 electric hatchback will likely be priced around $40,000, or similar to that of a well-equipped 3 Series sedan, when it goes on sale later this year. This information was revealed during an interview where AN spoke to Ludwig Willisch, CEO of BMW North America. The i3 will likely qualify for a $7,500 tax credit from the US federal government, though AN reports that a BMW spokesperson could not confirm this just yet.
In addition to the all-electric i3, BMW will offer a range-extended version that uses a 0.65-liter two-cylinder motorcycle engine and auxiliary generator to charge the car's battery on the go. Automotive News says pricing for this model is still unclear, as is whether or not the range-extended i3 will be eligible for the $7,500 tax credit. Of course, buyers needing a vehicle for longer trips will be able to borrow one from the automaker.
Automotive News also reports that the majority of BMW's 338 dealers in the United States will be able to sell the i3, as well as the upcoming i8 hybrid sports car. Dealerships have until June of this year to opt out of this program, however.
