Up for auction is a very nice 2001 BMW 330xi. The previous owner of the vehicle was a young businessman who bought the car when it was new. I purchased the vehicle from him. As the owner of an automotive detailing company, I detailed the vehicle twice yearly since 2007. In 2010, I purchased the car, knowing it was well cared for. I am selling it to reinvest the money into the detailing business.

Despite the high miles, the BMW is in great shape. The paint looks great. The interior is in very good condition. Mechanically, the car runs flawlessly. The car performs and handles well, while getting about 28-mpg highway.

This is the 330 with all wheel drive and an automatic transmission. It has the sport package and is fully loaded, with the exception of the cold weather package. It has memory seats and mirrors. I have every service record, since the car was new. The BMW has been garaged since new.

The Pros:

The car drives tight and has no squeaks or rattles.
The BMW is well equipped.
The paint looks good.
The interior is in great shape.
It has been very well cared for with two meticulous owners.
The brakes and disks are newer.

The Cons:

The sunroof sun shade does not slide smoothly.
The passenger power window goes up slowly.
The paint is original and has some imperfections, like some rock chips on the front and several small dings in the RR door.
The tires have 15000 miles on them.

I hate to sell my BMW. Despite the high miles, it was well cared for and is in mechanically excellent condition. The reserve is $5300.

EVO "2012 Car of the Year: The Track Battles" is a sports car salmagundi

Sun, 25 Nov 2012

EVO 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.

BMW 4 Series configurator comes online

Mon, 08 Jul 2013

The best money in the world might be configurator money - you never run out of it and you can never spend it the wrong way. We hope you're ready to dip into your configurator savings account, because it's time to start speccing out the 2014 BMW 4 Series, the coupe having just arrived in the virtual world.
There are four possible opening gambits: the 428i for $40,500, the 428i xDrive for $42,500, the 435i for $46,000 or the 435i xDrive for $48,000. After you've chosen your first move, there are three trim options: the $1,400 Luxury Line that features lots of chrome and wood (shown), the $1,700 Sport Line that adds lots of gloss black and contrasting trim color and stitching, or the $3,100 M Sport that offers the M Estoril Blue hue and lots of M-division specific accessories.
Starting with the 435i xDrive and M Sport, we then added items like the 19-inch wheels ($900), the Dynamic Handling Package ($1,000), Cold Weather Package ($700), Premium Package ($2,200), Tech Package ($3,150) and the Lighting Package ($1,900) on top of any other box we could check. The total, after the $925 destination and handling charge: $66,749.

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.
