United States

 This is a totally original and mechanically unmodified M3.  The Laguna Seca Blue paint is all original and has no dents or scratches.  The front areas that are typically subject to tiny stone chips are covered by a thin clear material (I believe made by 3M) that is nearly invisible and was installed by the dealer when purchased new.  The car had a total service at 94,000 miles and will need nothing for many more miles.  This service included changing the following: transmission fluid, differential fluid, power steering fluid, brake fluid, coolant, engine oil and filter, cabin microfilter, air filter, fuel filter, vanos filter, spark plugs, and valve adjustment.  I know the history of the car and am the 3rd owner. The original owner sold the car to his niece at 40,000 miles and she sold it to me at 93,000 miles.  The carfax shows 5 owners due to state registration/title changes and a divorce name change.  Also, the carfax shows an accident report which was only a parking lot incident that caused the tail light assembly to be replaced.  In the 2 years I've owned the car there have been absolutely no maintenance issues and everything works on the car as it should. The interior of the car has no rips or tears as my pictures hopefully show. The significant options on the car are zenon headlights, Harmon Kardon stereo, and cold weather package which includes heated seats.  The only non stock additions are tinted windows and an I-phone adapter cord which is between the seats.  At 94,000 miles I installed BFG G-force sport tires that still appear new.  I also have the car manuals, 2 sets of keys, and maintenance records back to 40,000 miles.  Records prior to that can be gotten from a BMW dealer.  If a prospective bidder wants, I'd be happy to have the car inspected at a location of your choice and at your expense.  I am also willing to drive the car to an auction winner living in any major city in the country for .75c/mile (I'm retired and have lots of free time). If you have any questions, I'm available anytime at 678-570-3986.

BMW X4 M40i caught production-ready

Wed, 22 Oct 2014

It seems like BMW is pretty committed to this whole X4 thing. Aside from the current xDrive28i and xDrive35i, we've captured a round of spy photos showing what our spy shooters tell us is a more dynamic M40i model.
The higher-performance hunchback follows in the footsteps of BMW's other sub-M cars like the M235i. In fact, much like the high-po 2 Series, the M40i is expected to make use of a 3.0-liter, turbocharged six-cylinder, developing 365 to 375 horsepower.
Aside from that, the rest of the X4 M40i fits the brief of other near-M models, with a more aggressive body kit, larger wheels, firmer suspension and brawnier brakes. Expect some mild tweaks inside, too, including sportier seats and an M-specific steering wheel.

Hamann M6 Gran Coupe is all flared and shiny

Tue, 10 Sep 2013

Oh, Hamann. After rolling out the ridiculously pink Mystère at this year's Geneva Motor Show, the tuning company has worked its mirror-finishing magic on the BMW M6 Gran Coupe, debuting this, the aptly named "Mirror" at the Frankfurt Motor Show. It sure is shiny, and a full 40 millimeters wider than the standard M6 GC.
Hamann says that the, um, "tailor-made suit" exterior treatment is made up of a new front bumper spoiler with large air intakes, side skirts, a new rear spoiler, and wing extensions out back. And the end result is... well, let's just call it noticeable. The special BMW rides on unique 21-inch wheels and sits a full 25 millimeters closer to the ground, as well.
As far as we can tell, Hamann hasn't upgraded the M6's 4.4-liter twin-turbo V8 at all, though there's a new sport exhaust system that "depending on the application area, either noisily announce its presence or purr sportily." Sounds like it's as loud as its newfound appearance.

Are you the 2016 BMW M2?

Wed, 21 May 2014

From the looks of these spy shots, BMW is back testing the hotter version of the M235i, the M2. We first brought you pictures of the lightly disguised coupe a few weeks back. While those original shots were on the road, it would seem that BMW has transitioned its testing to the Nürburgring.
Here, we get a better look at the M2 prototype's M-spec wheels. This particular car is missing the traditional quadruple exhausts that serve as an easy identifier for BMW M products, although our spies report that the tips, along with a more assertive front fascia, will arrive when the M2 makes its production debut.
We can't yet confirm any powertrain details, but previous rumors had the M2 getting its go from a tuned version of the brand's N55 turbocharged inline-six. Take a look up top for this latest round of spy photos of the BMW M2.
