For sale is my beloved 02 M3, I have a 6 month old and another one on the way. So, I unfortunately have to sell to get a 4 door. It has been meticulously cared for by me and the sole previous owner. 

Small back story, my family owns (where I work) a German auto repair facility in New Orleans. So all work has been done by me and my father, using only OEM parts or better.

My intent was to restore it to look and feel brand new because the e46 has been my favorite car for a while and I was too young to afford it when it was new. I did almost the entire interior, most of the suspension components, brakes, and new engine gaskets and seals.


Interior:

 The car comes equipped from the factory with:
-heated seats
-electric adjustment w/ for/aft, lumbar, etc
-Harmon / Kardon sound system
-Weather Tech Digifit Floormats (purchased new on 10/13)
-oem zhp weighted shift knob
-ultra white led light kit in all the interior lights 

The interior plastics have been replaced all within the last 3 months with brand new factory pieces:
-all center console pieces
-ash tray
-pocket
-cup holder
-arm rest
-all with zero nicks or scratches - the interior looks brand new
-trim has been painted oem titanium silver to match car
-the door cards are flawless
-passenger seat and rear seats are immaculate
-driver seat has small wear from getting in and out - no tears/rips/etc 


Suspension / Brakes / Wheels:

I installed Turner Motorsport drilled rotors front and rear w/ ceramic pads January 2013, virtually zero dust. Looks Great - low maintenance - excellent performance.

In March and April, I replaced all the front bushings, rear trailing arm bushings with the urethane limiters, upper strut mounts, strut bearings, rear strut mounts, and all components associated with shocks and springs. That was done when I installed H&R sport springs and Koni yellow shocks. When I did that I also installed 18x8.5 and 18x10 BBS RXII wheels, refinished right before installation - polished lips and centers refinished in BMW DGII (dark graphite metallic) and wrapped in Bridgestone RE760s.

-H&R Sport Springs (3/2013)
-Koni Yellow Adjustable Shocks (3/2013)
-Front / Rear Strut / Shock Mounts (3/2013)
-BBS RXII (2-Piece) 18x8.8 , 18x10 refinished with BMW Dark Graphite Metallic and Polished Lips (3/2013)
-Bridgestone RE760 Sport Tires (3/2013)
-Rear Trailing Arm Bushings (3/2013)
-Front Control Arm Bushings / All Swaybar Bushings (4/2013)
-Engine/Transmission Mount (6/2011)
-Guibo (6/2011) 

All the corner markers and turn signals are new OEM amber ones, except tails which are OEM non led clear and red, all bulbs are the "no show" chrome bulbs.

Exterior paint has zero scratches or dings except the typical pepper on the hood and bumper, I have the hood and bumper scheduled to be painted 2nd week of January. If the car goes for the buy it now price I will get it painted at no additional cost to the buyer, so at that point the exterior will show zero scratches or dents/dings. (that process will take 3-4 days).The car gets clayed once and year, and waxed twice a year.


Engine:

Engine and exhaust are stock with zero oil/fluid leaks.

Engine is strong with recent services within last 9 months of:

Green Performance Air Filter
Valve Adjustment
Spark plugs
A/C cabin filter
6 ignition coils
Valve cover gasket
Oil relief valve
Front crank seal
Oil pan gasket
New starter
New battery 
Alternator (November 12')
Transmission fluid service
Rear end oil service

- probably forgetting something - but I have all the service records dating back to at least '08

Vanos and rod bearing service has both been completed (rod bearing done in '04) by previous owner.

Never Tracked or Wrecked!!!! Zero Subframe Issues!!!!

Over $7K spent in wheels, struts/shocks, springs, and brakes in the last year.

Buy with full confidence.

Car will receive a full detail before delivery.

If necessary, please contact me through ebay. Then we can exchange phone numbers to get into a more detailed conversation.

2015 BMW X3 gets a new nose, diesel power

Wed, 05 Mar 2014

The second-generation BMW X3 launched in late 2010, and while it's never really wowed us, it's still a solid offering in a highly competitive class. In an effort to keep things fresh, BMW has given its X3 a nip/tuck for the 2015 model year, but perhaps the biggest news (for the US market, anyway) involves what's found underhood.
In addition to the 2.0-liter turbo-four and 3.0-liter turbo-six, BMW will now offer an X3 xDrive28d, fitted with - you guessed it - the 2.0-liter turbodiesel inline four-cylinder engine found in the 328d sedan. Output for this engine is rated at 180 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque, and BMW says this oil-burning mill will help the X3 reach 60 miles per hour in just under eight seconds. The automaker hasn't released any information about real or predicted fuel economy figures for the diesel X3, as yet.
What's more, BMW will once again offer a two-wheel-drive X3 in the States - the sDrive28i. Pricing for the refreshed 2013 X3 starts at $39,325, not including $925 for destination. Opting for that diesel will set you back $42,825. Scroll down for the official press release, and check out a new brace of shots live from the soft-roader's Geneva Motor Show debut.

Forget about greenlighting it, BMW is already testing the M2

Thu, 08 May 2014

One week ago, we reported, with some skepticism, that BMW had greenlit a car we've been waiting for since the 1 Series M Coupe was discontinued - the M2. Now, we have the first images of that new hotshot underoing testing in Germany.
What's our reasoning here? After all, this just looks like an M235i. Well, that camo is disguising swollen fenders designed to conceal wider tires. Now, these aren't production changes, and it's very likely that the eventual M2's fenders will look quite a bit different. According to our spy, the front fenders have been borrowed from the M235i Racing, while the rears are from an unknown source.
Our spies are also quick to point out a few other high-performance items on this mule. The cross-drilled brakes and blue M calipers are one such item, although we aren't sure how much they differ from the optional stoppers on the production M235i. The black wheels are borrowed from the M3 and M4, and are shod in what look like a sticky set of Michelin tires.

BMW recalls diesel X5 models over fuel filter heater

Mon, 19 Aug 2013


BMW has announced that it is recalling 1,540 examples of its 2009 and 2010 X5 xDrive35d crossovers produced between June 13, 2009 and November 9, 2009.
According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the model's fuel filter heater, which warms up the diesel fuel at low outside temperatures, can experience an electrical overload condition that may cause it to become permanently activated. This means the fuel filter heater could remain activated even when the ignition is off, which could lead to a dead battery. It could also lead to overheating, possibly resulting in a fire.
