Vehicle history: Vehicle was custom ordered from Germany according to my specifications/packages/options. Order was placed in May 2014, Vehicle entered production in Germany on the 24th week of 2014 (Early June), on the boat by end June and delivered to me end of July 2014 (2 miles on the odometer). Vehicle was not driven by anyone at the dealership other than myself. All paperwork and service history is included in the sale (even original window sticker). I am very meticulous about it and vehicle history can be traced all the way back to the factory. Oil changes done every 5k miles regardless of cost or free BMW oil changes. Warranty: Vehicle still carries all the original BMW warranties. 2 years left on the cost free maintenance from BMW (brake pads, rotors, motor oil, etc). In order of transparency: One month ago, during the heavy rainfall in Texas, I was driving the vehicle in the suburbs of Austin. One truck kicked up so much water that it entered the intake vent, passed through the airbox and eventually made it into cylinder #4, the water bent the rod on that cylinder. In lieu of repairing the engine, no expenses was spared, engine was pulled out, replaced by a new engine flown from Germany. All work was done by BMW Austin and all BMW warranties, etc still stand. Repairs totaled 19600 USD (receipts included of course). Car drives beautifully, both engines (including the new one) broken in as per BMW procedure. Car has 13613 miles with new engine having 2579. New engine oil changed at 2540 (after break in) at BMW of Portland (again receipts included of course). Title of vehicle is clean and the carfax is also the same. I just like being thorough and honest. Reason for selling: I am really attached to this car and it really pains me to sell it but I am moving back to Canada and does not make financial sense to import it. I would love to pass it on to a good home/owner that would really appreciate the car but also have fun with it. Driving sensation: This vehicle is a beast, you could perfectly drive it in a civil manner around the city but on an open or twisting stretch of road, it handles like it is on rails and keeps on accelerating hard all the way to frightening levels. It also stops on a dime thanks to M performance brakes (4 piston on the front, 2 piston at the rear). Other: Only serious buyers. More pictures can be supplied by request. Shipping: I will help with all vehicle shipping coordination. the expense will have to be covered by the buyer.

Former BMW M boss and Maserati CEO killed in freak motorcycle accident
Mon, 19 Aug 2013It's a tragic coincidence that on the same weekend the BMW M4 Coupe Concept was introduced in Monterey, one of the men most integral to BMW's M and Motorsports divisions, Karl-Heinz Kalbfell, was killed in England. Kalbfell, a vintage motorcycle enthusiast, was set to compete in the Lansdowne Classic Series at Brands Hatch and had an accident during a practice session. After going wide at Druids Corner and falling, he was hit by a competitor following close behind and died of his injuries after being transported to hospital.
Kalbfell, an engineer, began his career at BMW in 1977 in the communications department; a decade later he was chairman of BMW M GmbH, overseeing development of some of the cars responsible for the myth of M. In 1994 he was named chairman of BMW Motorsport, and his cap full of feathers includes getting the BMW V12 into the McLaren F1, getting the BMW V8 into two Morgan cars, along with developing BMW's Formula One engine and return to the sport. Not incidentally, he also assumed leadership of Project Rolls-Royce after BMW bought the British marque in 1998, which means he oversaw the Goodwood factory upfit and the creation of the Phantom.
He left Rolls-Royce for a brief stint at Fiat, heading Alfa Romeo and Maserati, then went into consulting for clients like Lotus and Paragon, who built the Artega GT. As Autocar notes, Kalbfell "had an abiding sense that customers needed to be attracted to cars by their aura and reputation, not just their engineering." He will be missed.
Car and Driver lists 10Best for 2013, same as it ever was
Wed, 05 Dec 2012Forgive us for having the distinct feeling of déjà vu, but it certainly feels like we've been here before. By that we are referring Car and Driver and the announcement of its annual 10Best vehicles for 2013. To be sure, it's an impressive selection of cars that combine heart-pounding performance and frugal sensibilities, but it also represents something of a broken record on the part of C/D. We're not so sure that's a flaw, though, as the resulting list is tough to argue with.
Vehicles like the Ford Mustang, Porsche Boxster, and BMW 3 Series have maintained their high-horsepower spots on this list for several years now. Even on the more practical and nimble end, the Honda Accord, Honda Fit and Mazda Miata have not budged. These continued spots are even in light of redesigns for some vehicles such as the Accord, Boxster and 3 Series.
In fact, the only newcomer to the 10Best list this year are the Scion FR-S/Subaru BRZ twins, which knocked out the Cadillac CTS-V. We think it would have been a huge misstep to have excluded the FR-S/BRZ, even in light of the supercharged Caddy's lamentable departure from 10Best.
BMW i3 configurator is so advanced it's replaced trim levels
Fri, 25 Apr 2014BMW's electric i3 is slowly marching its way to dealers. It might not be happening quite fast enough for customers, though. For you anxious individuals, head over to the BMW consumer website and build your ideal i3 in the new configurator.
Before we talk about all the stuff this build tool can do, we need to address the naming of BMW's trim levels for the EV hatchback. The 328i, for example, is available in Sport Line, M Sport Line and Luxury Line. That's good; it makes sense. The i3, though, has Giga World, Tera World and Mega World. Seriously. We've no idea what BMW was thinking when it came up with this (this is the same company that regularly uses the phrase "Sport Activity Vehicle," so...).
Silly names aside, let's try and translate where each trim fits in. The Mega World is the base trim. The Giga, at $1,700, adds stylish leather-and-wool seats in a clean two-tone color scheme, along with 19-inch wheels and a leather-covered IP. The Tera World demands $2,700, but makes up for it with its own 19-inch wheels and a full leather interior. Both lines (worlds?) add satellite radio and eucalyptus wood trim.
