1999 - Bmw M3 on 2040-cars
Holiday, Florida, United States
I am selling my 1999 BMW M3 Convertible. I put in a lot of money and time, and the car is running perfectly. I've included a list below. I knew the previous owner who had it for years before me. Both of us love cars and have taken excellent care of the car. All maintenance is up to date with recent tune up. Everything listed below was performed within the last 1,000 miles. I just bought a 2003 M3 that I couldn't pass up so it's time to sell this one. All parts were exchanged with high quality replacements, no cheap parts. Please feel free to come see the car in person prior to making offer. The car is still very strong, fast, and reliable. Tires have about 60-70% tread left on them. The top was not working properly when I received the car, now it is. The heated seats both work and they are better than the heated seats in any of my other cars. Everything in the car works well. Tune up work: - Window tint 5% all around (except plastic in rear window area) - New brake pads all around - Rotors resurfaced - Oil change with mobil 1 synthetic oil and filter 700 miles ago - All gaskets on engine block/head replaced - Master clutch cylinder - Slave clutch cylinder - Hydraulic fluid changed - VANOS unit recalibrated - Adaptation values reset - New Spark plugs - Bosch Icon wipers - Radiator fluid changed - Convertible top fixed with new struts and calibration - Convertible top replaced within last 2 years - Smoke lens fog lights (error free) - Euro smoke/red tailights (error free) - Projector HID headlights with angel/halo eyes running as DRLs. Low beams are 6K HID Volt kit. Very good looking lights. - All interior lights replaced with high quality hyperwhite lights from superbrightleds.com with remaining warranty - New color matched floor mats Currently, the BSW Soundplicity Control II is installed but that is not included with the vehicle at this time. It integrates an iphone/ipod with the BMW head unit. If the buyer is interested, then they can contact me to work something out to leave the Soundplicity unit in the car with the phone holder. The stock CD changer does come with the car. Please contact me with any questions. It is a very clean car in excellent shape.

2015 BMW i8 offers you a fast ride to the future for $135,700* [w/video]
Tue, 10 Sep 2013BMW's long-form teasing and rollout of its incredibly cool i8 has put us in a unique position to report from its world debut here in Frankfurt. Typically, an auto show debut marks just the start of the information dump about a new vehicle. The i8, however, is a car that we've already driven and reviewed, so perhaps the biggest news from the show floor is the official price of the thing, as well as getting to see it live and in person, of course.
Arriving in US showrooms in the spring of 2014, the i8 performance plug-in hybrid will carry a price tag of $135,700 (*not including $925 for destination and handling charges). That kind of cash puts the i8 near the very top of the BMW range (slotting just under the top-trim 7-Series models), and will buy a massive amount of new technology.
The four-seat i8 has the look of a true supercar, and its new-tech drivetrain will offer up the performance of a stirring sports car, at least. A TwinPower Turbo, three-cylinder, 1.5-liter engine will make 231 horsepower and 236 pound-feet of torque that's gets sent to the rear wheels, while a 96-kilowatt electric motor doles out 131 hp and 184 lb-ft of maximum torque to the fronts. Total system output of 362 hp and 420 lb-ft allows the i8 to sprint to 62 miles per hour in 4.4 seconds with all-wheels-driven handling, and it still returns an astonishing 94 miles per gallon US.
Police arrest 'Fastest Lap Around Manhattan' driver [w/video]
Fri, 06 Sep 2013Don't speed. Don't drive recklessly. Don't try to break the unofficial record for a lap of Manhattan. And if you go against this reasonable advice, do not, under any circumstances, record it and post the video on YouTube. If you do, you'll end up like Christopher Adam Tang - under arrest and facing a bevy of charges relating to the video.
Tang posted the video, which showed him lapping Manhattan in 24 minutes last Wednesday, and it quickly went viral. Now Tang, who went by the online moniker AfroDuck, is in cuffs. According to a local CBS affiliate, he was picked up at his home on Wednesday evening by police, who also seized the car used in the video, a 2006 BMW Z4.
What isn't clear is how Tang was caught. His video seems carefully done in that there are no outwardly visible signs that point to him, while the video itself is clearly sped up. While the NYPD hasn't come out and said that Tang was caught due to its extensive surveillance systems around the city, police commissioner Ray Kelly did point out that the new systems "will assist in this type of investigation." Let that serve as a warning to anyone that tries to break the 24-minute barrier. Scroll down to watch the full video.
BMW reacquires original factory as classic center
Thu, 27 Feb 2014BMW was barely two years old when it started manufacturing airplane engines in a factory on Moosacher Strasse in Munich. Two years after that, it sold the factory to Knorr-Bremse AG, a leading manufacturer of brakes for trains and commercial vehicles, and BMW moved into a new facility on Lerchenauer Strasse. There it expanded into the industrial giant we know today, building engines for cars, trucks, motorcycles, boats and planes. It's taken the better part of a century to get that original factory back, but that's exactly what BMW has done, reacquiring the expanded facility from Knorr-Bremse this month.
The factory on Moonsacher Strasse will now serve as the headquarters for BMW Group Classic, the division that handles archives and historical vehicles for BMW, Mini and Rolls-Royce. From there, just a stone's throw from corporate headquarters and its main plant (as well as BMW Welt and the BMW Museum), the classic division's operations will include a restoration workshop, vintage parts store, the company's archives, administration as well as a place to hold events. In addition, there will be an exhibition space for historical vehicles from the company's considerable collection.
At the heart of the new/old campus is the gatehouse, which is a protected heritage site and will serve as a gateway into the company's history. Read the full details in the press release below.
