1996 - Bmw M3 on 2040-cars
Malone, Washington, United States
Hello there, I have a 1996 E36 M3 for sale that is in fantastic condition! The car has only had a few owners, one of which was a former Stanford student and her father who is an auto enthusiast. I'm putting her up for sale because I plan on moving soon and won't have the garage space for the car and I don't want to leave it on the street or exposed to the weather. I have not been using this as my daily driver. It's been my weekend nice-weather fun car and when not in use, it sits in a fully covered garage (4 walls and a roof). It's mostly stock except for the 1900 ground control suspension system and a lightweight M5 clutch and flywheel that was installed by the previous owner. I guess he intended for the car to be his track car but never got around to actually doing it. When I bought it, he had a SPAL high performance electric fan kit that IS NOT installed that he gave me. I still haven't installed it (and never intended to) so I can include it with the purchase of the car. After I bought it and had it inspected, I put 1500 into it to fix the following at Strictly BMW in Bellevue: Replaced drive belts and pulleys Replaced valve cover gasket and 6 spark plug boots Replaced pedal travel sensor for ABS (to fix ABS warning light being displayed on dash). The previous owner has replaced/repaired: At 104,758 miles, replaced clutch/flywheel with M5 one, Install short shifter kit, changed transmission/engine/differential lubrication, replaced air boot. On 11/02/2010, the timing chain, guides, and tensioners were all replaced. Also, the VANOS unit was rebuilt. New tires as of 92,000 miles. New front brake pads and rotors at 95,000 miles. Coolant expansion tank replaced at 100,231. and the service records that show all this are included too. Like I mentioned earlier, this car has not been destroyed by a dumb 17 year old living out fast and the furious fantasies. Because the E36's have pretty much bottomed out in price, it's really hard to find one that isn't all messed up with stupid sound systems and ugly rims. It's been owned by adults with the exception of the Stanford student who just used it as her daily commuter. It's condition reflects the extra care it's been given.

BMW R1200 GS Adventure is made for epic roadtrips
Tue, 08 Oct 2013BMW Motorrad has taken the wraps off of its newest GS Adventure model. Based on the R1200 GS, the Adventure trim makes an already tough bike just a bit tougher, thanks to a number of technical changes that improve off-road capabilities without sacrificing any of the R1200 GS' riding manners.
The most noticeable change might be the larger fuel tank, up in size from 5.3 gallons to 7.9 gallons, although this largely due to the Adventure's lower fuel economy - it loses about three miles per gallon to the regular R1200 GS. BMW claims that the larger tank won't inhibit riding comfort, thanks to its narrow design and placement in the bike's frame. The spring travel is 0.8 inches longer, while there's nearly half an inch of extra ground clearance, which is largely responsible for its improve off-road talents. A new, larger seat promises a more comfortable ride and a greater range of adjustability, while a few tweaks within the engine offer an even smoother delivery of the bike's 125 horsepower and 92 pound-feet of torque.
We have a full gallery of images of the R1200 GS Adventure available up top, along with the entire press release from BMW, which can be found by scrolling down.
Hamann BMW M6 Mirror can now cash the checks its body writes
Wed, 05 Mar 2014Anyone remember the Hamann Mirror? Need a refresher? The Mirror is German tuning company Hamann's idea of a BMW M6. It was shown at the 2013 Frankfurt Motor Show as an M6 Gran Coupe, sporting a ridiculous paint job and some meaty, multi-spoke 21-inch wheels.
Consider this car the Mirror Mark 2. Based on the M6 Coupe, Hamann has applied a similar visual theme, using the same 21-inch wheels from 2013. Whereas the Gran Coupe rode around with a stock powertrain, though, there's been no such restraint with the two-door Mirror. A fine 620 horsepower is available from the 4.4-liter, biturbocharged V8, an increase of 60 horsepower. Torque is up as well, from 501 pound-feet to a whopping 560, meaning this M6 has speed to match its looks. Hamann claims the Mirror's newfound grunt allows it to hit 62 miles per hour faster than the standard M6 (we'd certainly hope so), although it won't mention a specific number.
The suspension, meanwhile, has been dropped 1.37 inches, or about a third of an inch lower than the Frankfurt Mirror. That drop is complemented by the Mirror's bodywork, including the exposed, carbon fiber hood and the flared fenders, which can now accommodate the enormous 305/25 rear rubber. Hamann has also paid some attention to the front and rear aerodynamics.
BMW i8 official images leak ahead of Frankfurt [w/video]
Tue, 03 Sep 2013The new BMW i8 plug-in electric supercar isn't set to make its official debut until September 10, when it will glide onto the Frankfurt Motor Show stage amidst a sea of flash photography. Of course, that isn't so true in today's world, where debuts are always preceded (often carefully) by "leaks."
Take this trio of images of the BMW i8 - there's just enough of the exterior on display in the profile shot to draw attention, without showing important styling points that might be present on the front or back of the car. The same goes for the video attached below. The cabin shot is cool, but isn't particularly earth-shattering when it comes to BMW interiors. As for the skeletal shot, we can see the 1.5-liter, turbocharged engine positioned between the rear axles, the battery pack found in what would be the transmission tunnel and the front-mounted electric motors.
We'll have a full set of live images when the BMW i8 makes its debut in Frankfurt next week. Until then, have a look in the gallery and at the video below, and let us know what you think of BMW's next big thing.
