Estoril Blue BMW M3 for sale. Keeping a car in D.C. has become too inconvenient, so here it goes. Car has been well-maintained since purchase. Regular oil changes only using synthetic oil, all repairs done properly, and all wear-and-tear parts replaced with OEM or parts of higher quality (e.g. all-aluminum radiator fittings to replace the worn plastic ones). Every known common mechanical failure for E36 M3's has been addressed and replaced with a part of better quality (e.g. replacing plastic parts with metal ones. It has been used as a daily driver since it was bought in 1999, and has been very reliable since. It has been on long road trips, and never left me stranded. Car was never smoked in, and the sedans are rare. They are also lighter than the coupes. Lots of performance work--to get this work on a stock M3 would cost well over $4,000. Upgrades include: Zionsville high capacity aluminum radiator E46 M3 front rotors (cast with cooling holes) Forged Porsche/Brembo 911 calipers (last generation 911) Euro-style front headlights (glass covers instead of plastic) Composite Hood (professionally painted factory Estorial Blue) Rear diff brace H&R Progressive Rate springs (small lower, ~.5”) Billstein shocks Front & Rear aluminum tower braces Custom Volk wheels (including full-size spare) Schrick cams CAI COMFORTI ECU Re-upholstered front seats (done with leather) New Bridgestone rear tires M50 intake mainifold New radio (AUX input, CD changer, AM/FM) Front under-panel Ball-bearing short-throw shifter There are some problems with the car: damage to front bumper (from wheel dipping into pothole; visible in the pictures); starter motor works better when the car is cold; A/C compressor is disconnected (A/C still works; compressor clutch just needs replacement). Buyer is responsible for pickup or shipping. $1000 deposit is due within 48 hours of auction's end and full payment within 72 hours. |

Dinan S3-R BMW 1M Coupe
Wed, 02 Apr 2014I nearly shed tears a few years ago upon learning that BMW was only planning to produce a very limited quantity of its then-new 2011 1 Series M Coupe. In simplest terms, the two-door was a 1 Series fitted with a modified version of the automaker's twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-six, and the running gear (gearbox, driveshaft, axles) from contemporary M3 models. It was also a return to form for the brand. Aggressively short and stubby in stature but packing telltale flared wheel arches that hinted at its potential, the four-seater was a spiritual successor to the original (and much loved) E30 M3 from decades earlier.
After spending a day with the original high-performance 1 at New York's Monticello Motor Club, I declared, "The little coupe with the big flares is old-school retro cool and deliciously fun to drive ... the new BMW 1 Series M Coupe doesn't target boy-racers, it targets enthusiasts." Yet sadly - and despite strong demand - BMW limited the model's production to just one year. All told, only 740 units made it to the States, and each was gobbled up at a starting price of $46,135, a price tag history will show to be a bargain.
Since I had little hope of even driving one again, I deliberately pushed all memories of BMW's 1 Series M Coupe from my mind - until my phone rang recently. On the other end was a representative from Dinan Engineering who wanted to know if I would be interested in driving the company's new S3-R BMW 1M. A quick Google search revealed it to be a heavily modified version of the discontinued 1 Series M Coupe. As if they needed an answer...
Even 'Ring taxi drivers need to respect the Green Hell
Wed, 06 Aug 2014The Nürburgring Nordschleife has the reputation as one of the most difficult tracks in the world to master - deservedly so. With 14 miles of roadway and about 160 corners over a massive amount of elevation change, the amount of grip can change from turn to turn. As the driver of the famous BMW Ring Taxi learned this weekend after a shunt into the barricades, the 'Ring can bite unsuspecting pros just as easily as amateurs.
The video of the incident below shows the M5 oversteering right into the wall as a phalanx of Porsche models arrive behind it. According to Bridge to Gantry, a website that specializes in news about the 'Ring, the taxi's passengers were picked up by another Ring Taxi and driven off with a fantastic story to tell their friends back home. "The accident happened at low speed, there were two passengers in the car, but no one had at any injuries," said BMW spokesperson Cypselus von Frankenberg to Autoblog via email.
The crash also closed track for over an hour to clean up and to haul the stricken BMW away. When a driver making a living from driving lap after lap at the Nordschleife has a crash even as seemingly minor as this one, it just goes to show why the course has the nickname 'The Green Hell.'
Next BMW X1 caught on flatbed
Tue, 17 Sep 2013The X1 had been around for four years before it was added to BMW's US lineup, so it isn't all that surprising that a new version of the company's smallest Sport Activity Vehicle is already in the works. Captured in transit on the back of a flatbed truck, these spy shots give us our first look at the next-gen X1 - codenamed F48 - which is expected to debut around 2015.
While the camouflage does a good job of obscuring most of the styling elements, we definitely see evidence of the X1's new platform. Elements like the loss of the long nose and a noticeably shrunken dash-axle gap (just compare this spy shot picture to this one from our X1 review), are good indicators that the next X1 will move to the new front-wheel-drive platform BMW is using for the new Mini and 1 Series GT. Aside from this, the overall shape is very similar to the current design, but we're sure it will pull many cues from the updated range of BMW products.
