Riverview, Michigan, United States
|
You are bidding on a beautiful 2004 BMW M3 Convertible with cold weather package with the 19" rims.. Car is bone stock. Has had all major service done recently with receipts included. This car was brought to Michigan from down south, sunny Atlanta Georgia. That means no salt or pot holes. 90 Autocheck which is above average. It shows me as the 3rd owner. This machine drives strong and like a beast. 4 wheel alignment was done about two months ago so it drives straight as an arrow. Newer tires on the rear with about 5k miles on them. Front tires will need to be replaced soon they are at about 20-30%. Has the stock BMW radio with Harmon Kardon speakers. Speakers sound great however the tweeters on the front doors will need to be replaced. I try to be as honest when listing my vehicles on E-Bay so please if there are any questions feel free to contact me before hand. I am willing to do face time or Skype with potential buyers so they can do a walk around. I encourage all potential buyers to come see the vehicle in person. This car is a beauty and must be seen in person to be fully appreciated. Rims have some curb rashes and scratches and could use a reconditioning but in no way affect the drive or performance of this car. Shipping is buyers responsibility. Car has no rattles, squeaks, leaks noises or any issues or indications of issues what so ever. This car has none of those "vanos" or sagging tail end issues. Runs and drives tight as you would expect from a M3. Where ever there was a concern I had it addressed asap. Being a used car I am still selling the car as is with no gaurantees, however with all the service done to it I would consider this to be as clean as they get. Power top works flawlessly. No issues opens and closes with the touch of a button every time. No rips or disfiguration on the soft top either. This car has normal blemishes that you would expect from a car its age, but is in a lot better condition than most. Some of the recent service done include but is not limited to: new gaskets new brakes/rotors/sensors new steering lines synthetic oil change new spark plugs new air filter/cabin filter/fuel filter manual transmission fluid flush (MTF 2) differential fluid flush (redline 75W-140) brake system flush (ATE type 200) power steering fluid (Redline synthetic) valve cover gasket/ gronments/ bushings lower subframe reinforcement plate. 4 wheel alignment All of this service was performed on March 25th 2014 in Atlanta Ga before I picked up the car. I had the car dropped off to a bmw indy shop and told them do whatever they felt the car needed to make it in prime shape. For those collectors, this is it. For any M3 Enthusiast, it doesn't get much better than this. Have the piece of mind of owning a premium car with ALL maintenance up to date. Clutch shifts strong and has no problems. This is one exhilarating car to drive, that begs for more every time. Imperfections: small dent on passenger side door (see pics) front tweeters on the door will need to be replaced soon passenger arm rest is wore out (see pics) rims have curb rash (see pics) some curb rash on the bottom of front bumpers (see pics) Options: Bi Xenon headlights Car has the cold weather package and the seat warmers work great!! Awesome lumbar support on front two seats Smokers package- however never seems to be smoked in has upgraded LED lights on all interior lights and license plate light and inside the trunk stock LED tail lights home link universal garage opening system Have manual/books and 1 key Please see all pictures before bidding and asking questions.

I have the title free and clear ready to go for the new buyer. There are no signs of any accidents on this car and it seems to me to be original paint. There is a small scratch behind the passenger side door I hope it shows up in the pictures. Again if theres any questions please feel free to contact me. No reserve auction Happy Bidding!!! |

This Or That: 1980 Oldsmobile 442 vs. 1989 BMW 635CSi [w/poll]
Thu, 09 Oct 2014The last time I roped a coworker into an automotive debate, I lost. Resoundingly, I might add. Still, 2,385 voters chose to cast their lots for the Fiat 500 Abarth, as opposed to 5,273 choosing the Ford Fiesta ST, and so I can rest easy in the knowledge that at least 30 percent of you, dear readers, see things my way. I still like to think we have more fun, too.
My loss in the first round of our This or That series, in which two Autoblog editors pick sides on any given topic and then attempt to explain why the other is completely wrong, didn't stop me from picking another good-natured fight, this time with Senior Editor Seyth Miersma. Last time, our chosen sides were eerily similar in design, albeit quite different in actual execution. This time, our vehicular peculiarities couldn't seemingly fall any further from one another: A 1980 Oldsmobile 442 wouldn't seem to match up in comparison to a 1989 BMW 635CSi.
How did we come up with such disparate contenders? Simple, really. Seyth and I mutually agreed to choose a car that's currently for sale online. It had to be built and sold in the 1980s, and it had to be a coupe. The price cap was set at $10,000. The fruits of our searching labors will henceforth be disputed, with Seyth on the side of the Germans, and myself arguing in favor of the Rocket Olds. Am I setting myself up for another lopsided loss?
BMW sets Guinness record for longest drift with new M5 [w/video]
Wed, 15 May 2013In September of 2011, Chinese drifter Wang Qi broke the Guinness record for the world's longest sustained drift, doing 13 laps inside the Olympic Center Stadium in Tianlin, China for 5,802.3 meters. That was broken in February of this year by Abdo Feghali in Abu Dhabi drifting a new Chevrolet Camaro around a skidpad for 11,180 meters - almost seven miles. In March, BMW decided it wanted the record "back in the US," and set up a course at its BMW Performance Driving School near Greenville, South Carolina to get the job done. On May, 11 it was Mission Accomplished when Performance Center driver Johan Schwartz drifted an M5 around a skidpad continuously for 51.3 miles.
Despite that accomplishment, we're pretty sure that professional drifter Vaughn Gittin, Jr. isn't impressed. The way Guinness defines "drifting" can also describe a donut, which is effectively the kind of drifting that's been done for these last three records. BMW went even further by watering down the surface of the track, reducing the skill required and the need to change tires during the effort. On the other hand, you can't drift a car for long in a straight line, but perhaps there should be some clarification or classifications added to the milestones.
There's a short video below taken during the record-breaking run, and a press release from the company that did it.
EVO "2012 Car of the Year: The Track Battles" is a sports car salmagundi
Sun, 25 Nov 2012EVO has come out with another gotta-watch-it video, throwing its 2012 Car of the Year contestants around the UK's 1.5-mile Blyton Park track. It's actually a 15-minute teaser for the full-length DVD detailing the magazine's Car of the Year selection, but the tease is worth every penny free second.
Tiff Needell and sports car racer Richard Meaden handle the wheel duties, the two driving five pairs of sports cars: Lotus Exige S vs. Porsche Boxster S, Morgan Three-Wheeler vs. Toyota GT86, BMW M135i vs. Porsche 911, Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Black Series vs. Alpina B3 GT3, the marquee event pits the McLaren MP4-12C vs. the Pagani Huayra. After a head-to-head lap with commentary during drifts, Meaden takes each car out to set a representative lap time.
You'll find the verdicts, lots of tire smoke, and lines like "Anything you can do sideways I can do sideways" in the video below.
