I hate most mods on cars, I really do. You never know who pieced something together in the backyard with duct tape and superglue, but again. . .one look at the receipts assured me all work was done by either a BMW dealership or BMW performance shop. My first 3 minutes driving the car also confirmed it! I know these cars well, have had several and driven many, and this is by far the finest riding and driving E36 I have every been in. The engine is smooth and really takes off especially above 3500 RPM's and 2nd and 3rd gears are amazing! The ride is flat, precise, handling is terrific and surprising the ride is no-where near stiff and very comfortable from the performance adjustable shocks. Again, a lot of money has been spent on this cars handling and you can feel it. Brakes great, tracks straight with No shimmies or shakes. NO Check Engine lights either. Its sounds fabulous too with the (expensive) Scorpion exhaust. . .not too "ricer-ish "or loud. . .just right.
You can see by the pictures, and the video I made a while back the excellent condition of the exterior. This car obviously gets a lot attention. There is a small bubble is forming over the driver rear wheel well and has very minor road wear in the front, but again-I'll let the visuals speak for themselves. Its looks great even from 10 feet! It's not perfect but I'll say this. . .if you found 10 of these cars and lined them up. . .this 325IS would be in the top 3 in condition INSIDE & OUT and it wouldn't surprise me if it were to be the best running of the bunch! The M rims look great-are in good condition and sport tires that are EXCELLENT in looks and feel. . ..85-90% tread.
If you like the exterior then you'll love the interior. The car was mechanically near perfect when I got it, and since I have freshened up the interior to match the rest of the car. It's near flawless. Seats, doors, dash. . .all EXCELLENT. You will think "WOW".
How about COLD AC, working sunroof, strong power windows, FULLY working trip and info computer (not one pixel is out!) working cruise control, 3 keys and manual in the glove box. . .with fresh battery to boot.
Two small things I haven't been able to figure out:
One turn signal bulb won't blink on the dash. . .The outside lights-front and rear work fine. . .the blink sound is normal. . .Its working-just not blinking on the dash (yes, I changed the bulb)
2nd: u can only lock and unlock the doors electronically all at once, using the trunk lock. (A common problem on these BMWs if you believe the Internet) Again, u just have to get out-walk to the back, insert the key and turn it once to lock or unlock the doors.
With all the great things I have to say. . .it is a 19 year old car and its not showroom & obviously sold as is. Understand this. . . I am very particular about my cars and I have found that my "NICE" equals most folks "EXCELLENT!!!". I just don't see how you could be disappointed in this car. A E36 M in this condition would cost close to twice as much and trust me, you'll be pleased with the performance.

Thermal imagery of BMW M4 DTM pit stop is red hot
Wed, 28 May 2014A pit stop is a pit stop, right? The race car pulls in, the crew changes the tires, pumps in some fuel, maybe swaps out a busted body panel or squeegees the windshield, and off it goes for another heat. Only pit stops have become the focus of news lately for a number of reasons, whether it's because of mishaps (like the ones that prompted F1 to ban mid-race refueling), new time records (due largely to said ban) or interesting new ways to film the fast-paced action.
A few weeks ago we brought you footage of an IndyCar pit stop filmed from multiple angles courtesy of Google Glass. Now BMW has released a brief clip of one of its M4 DTM racers coming in for fresh rubber, all filmed by infrared camera. Its the kind of technology BMW uses to help optimize its German touring cars for competition, and now the Bavarian outfit has released some footage for fans to enjoy.
The resulting thermal imagery gives you an idea of how hot the car runs (and where the heat is emanating from), how warm they get the fresh rubber before they get it onto the car, and what kind of temperatures the pit crew is subjected to. Look closely enough in the 25-second video below and you'll even see the heat sputtering out of the exhaust pipes as the M4 downshifts into its pit box. (Just don't try adjusting your speakers, the clip is without audio.)
2015 BMW X4 slides in on the diagonal starting at $45,625 in the US
Wed, 05 Mar 2014If BMW has shown us anything, it's a knack for creating niches and expanding its product portfolio. Go back to the early '90s and it had essentially four models: the 3 Series, 5 Series, 6 Series and 7 Series. End of list. Since then, the Bavarian automaker has not only taken on Mini and Rolls-Royce, but has expanded its own range of models exponentially. You can chalk a big part of that up to crossovers, and another sizable chunk to giving existing models a different roofline and calling it something new. What we have here is a prime example of both.
Previewed in concept form the better part of a year ago at the Shanghai Motor Show, the slantback version of the X3 (and the baby brother to the X6) is now here in full production guise. Mechanically it's essentially the same as the new X3 on which it's based, but amps up the "sport" at the expense of the "utility" part of the SUV equation.
BMW will undoubtedly offer a wide range of powertrain configurations in markets around the world, but back in the United States it'll be offered in two specs: the X4 xDrive28i, packing a 2.0-liter inline-four with 240 horsepower and a $45,625 sticker price (including destination), or the X4 xDrive35i with the 300hp 3.0-liter six and a $48,925 MSRP. Either way, you're getting an eight-speed automatic and all-wheel drive.
Audi investing $30.3 billion through 2018 for product expansion
Sun, 29 Dec 2013How does Audi plan to reach two million units in annual sales and pay for the 11 new models it's adding to its lineup - an expansion that may include models named SQ2, Q9 and F-Tron? By increasing its investment to 22 billion euros ($30.3 billion US) between now and 2018. That figure represents an increase of about 500 million euros over the previously planned outlay, according to a report by Automotive News, and that could be due to Audi wishing to goad the momentum that pushed it to 1.5 million annual sales two years ahead of schedule.
It's also about staving off the challenges from BMW and Mercedes-Benz. Now that BMW has been able to turn some of its attention away from its "i" series of Megacity cars, it will reportedly spend more than planned in 2014 as it continues the rollout of ten all-new vehicles and 15 new-generation vehicles through the end of next year. Mercedes, having been dropped to third in the sales race, is preparing to add 13 new cars over the next six years.
Audi's money is going into technology, into product like the next-generation TT and the Q1 and production expansions and upgrades all over the world. The expenditure represents just under a fourth of Volkswagen's 84.2 billion-euro ($115.7 US) outlay devoted to taking the number-one global automaker title away from General Motors and Toyota by 2018.
