Bmw M3 E36 Sedan Very Rare! on 2040-cars
|
I'm finally selling my e36 m3. I love this car but I've had my fun with it and it time for someone else to enjoy this beauty. here's what you get: engine; mostly original s52 engine. New starter, New spark plugs, New valve cover gasket, k&n intake. ( also had active autowerkes cat back exhaust.) engine starts up and runs perfectly. Car was dyno'd about 6 months ago, it made 218 hp and 222lb/ft of torque at the rear wheels which is awesome considering they were rated at 240hp and tq from the factory at the flywheel! drive train; the drive train is all original except for a new clutch master cylinder. transmission shift good into all gears. feels kinda clunky but they all do. the diff and everything else work perfectly chassis; suspension was completely re done with bilstein shocks and tein s tech springs and polyurithane bushings on the front control arms.ride is firm but not uncomfortable. the brakes are Turner motorsports drilled rotors and stoptech pads and we're done in June. exterior; paint is in relatively good considering the age. had the normal chips you'd except from being driven. there is no rust anywhere, I bought the car in Orlando 2 years ago so no rust from road salt. interior; this is the cool part. this car has the 2 tone blue swade /black leather Vader seats. this interior package in a 4 door with a manual transmission is a very rare trim package. there are very few with this combo. the driver seat is a little worn out from all the miles but all the electronics in the seat work. now for the cons: the front power windows don't work but the rears and sunroof still do. there is also a power steering fluid leak. it still works it just means out fluid slowly. the rear tires are bald ( result of offset tire sizes that can't be rotated) I replaced the front tires less than a year ago. also the are stereo doesn't work. the Kenwood head into does but it isn't connected tho the speakers. there was an amplifier in the trunk that powered them but it was stolen. aside from that the car is in great shape. if you have any question feel free to ask away. if you would like more i can still e-mail more detailed pics of any part of the car you would like to see. |

BMW adds new entry-level 320i model, priced from $33,445*
Mon, 14 Jan 2013Fans of the new BMW 3 Series here in the US have likely been waiting for one of two models to arrive: the new M3 or the diesel-powered 335d. Well... keep waiting just a little bit longer. Here at the Detroit Auto Show, BMW is showing off the new entry-level 320i that will join the 3 Series lineup this spring, and rather than bringing added performance or efficiency, this car is boasting affordability above all. The 320i has been on sale in other markets since the current-generation 3 Series was introduced, but it goes on sale in the US with a starting price of $33,445 (*)including $895 for destination, which is $3,405 less than the current starting price of BMW's well-liked sedan.
In other countries, the 320i uses either a 1.5- or a 2.0-liter inline-four (both turbocharged), and the US version of the car will be getting the latter engine producing 180 horsepower and 200 pound-feet of torque. For comparison, the current 328i, which uses this same engine, produces 240 hp and 255 lb-ft of torque. As expected, performance of the 320i will suffer with BMW estimating a 0-60 mile-per-hour time of 7.1 seconds, but it still has the same 130 mph top speed as the 328i. Oddly enough, despite the lower output, BMW's expected fuel economy for the 320i equipped with rear-wheel-drive and the eight-speed automatic transmission actually matches that of the current 328i with 23 miles per gallon city and 33 mpg highway, and those numbers are actually lower than the 328i with the manual gearbox.
It sounds like most of the usual 3 Series options will be available on the budget-minded 320i, including the choice of xDrive all-wheel drive, BMW Assist and numerous packages including a Sport pack and Premium pack. For a lot more information on the 320i, most of it general information on the F30 3 Series, scroll down for BMW's press release.
Are you the next BMW X5?
Tue, 15 Jan 2013Who knew that diecast model makers could be such a good source of leaks? Less than a month after a diecast model 2014 Mercedes-Benz CLA in China, someone overseas at Diecast Empire or Jadi Modelcraft could get a bath in boiling oil for leaking uncamouflaged images of the next-generation BMW X5.
Naturally, that assumes that this image from a brochure from a Jadi brochure is indeed the F15 BMW X5 - it was posted to Diecast Empire's Facebook page. In its favor, the lines all add up if we compare it to the most revealing spy shots we have of the coming crossover - the headlight corners, the metal trim separating the kidney grille from the opening just above the license plate, the cut of the swage line, and the fact that the model picture reveals all of the most important character pieces that BMW has kept covered.
There's something written on the door of the model image that isn't in the spy shots, but that could be an xDrive badge. We will see the genuine article soon enough and we'll know for sure. For now, we might have already seen its facsimile in miniature.
BMW 2 Series Convertible goes for a drive in the cold
Wed, 13 Feb 2013The BMW 2 Series is the car that will eventually replace the 1 Series here in the United States (remember: the 1 Series moniker will live on to describe the hatchback models in other markets), and while we've seen the new coupe out on the prowl, we're now seeing the droptop version out on the road. We don't have much information about the new 2er models, only that they are expected to bow sometime in 2014.
Dimensionally, the new 2 Series convertible looks very similar in size to its outgoing 1 Series kin, with things like the roofline and roof shape looking nearly identical. Of course, reworked front and rear fascias are immediately noticeable, and judging by what little we can see, it appears as though the small BMW will take many of its design cues from the larger 3 Series rather than the oft-awkward-looking 1 Series hatch that's currently available in Europe.
Assuming things are still on track for 2014, we won't rule out a possible debut in Geneva, though the Frankfurt expo in September makes even more sense.
