1998 Bmw Z3 Isr-3 Roadster on 2040-cars
Brownsville, Vermont, United States
This Estoril Blue Roadster BMW Z3 is the ultimate performance version of that car, an BMW/Dinan ISR-3 Roadster. Less than 100 BMW Dinan ISR-3 were ever produced. I am told that the actual number was 46. ISR-3 roadster stands for Intercooled Supercharged Roadster. Each ISR-3 made is unique, they are numbered. Each has a prominent number plate under the hood. And this one bears the number “07”.
The ISR-3 Package, which stands for Intercooled, Supercharged Roadster, adds virtually every high-performance upgrade that Dinan offered for the E36/7 M Roadster. The S52 3.2L inline-six engine now features a Dinan/Vortech belt-driven supercharger that delivers 10lbs of boost, with a Dinan air-to-air intercooler to prevent heat soak. To best utilize the added power from the supercharger, the engine also features Dinan performance software, high-flow intake, high-flow throttle bodies, high-flow fuel injectors and a low-pressure Dinan Free Flow exhaust system. The 5-speed manual transmission is also upgraded with a lightweight clutch and the OEM rear end has been replaced by a 3.38 limited slip differential. The car rolls on lightweight 18″ Dinan wheels and the suspension has been improved with an aluminum & carbon fiber strut tower brace, Koni dampers, performance springs and larger sway bars. All said and done, this M Roadster pumps out incredible horse power and torque in a 3,100lb package that will rocket to 60mphin the low 4s and pulls .91gs on the skid pad and touch a top speed near 160mph.
Factory features of this M Roadster include a premium Harman/Kardon audio system, heated sport seats, optional AM/FM radio with CD player, a sport steering wheel, power-operated soft top, roll bars and air conditioning.

2014 BMW M6 Gran Coupe
Wed, 30 Oct 2013One of the many perks of this job is, not surprisingly, the cars. It's relatively easy to snag the keys to a vehicle for a special occasion, whether that be for a road trip, tailgating or helping a friend move. And while sometimes the tailgating might happen with a Ford F-150 instead of a Range Rover and the road trip might be in a minivan rather than a Mercedes-Benz S-Class, occasionally the stars align and a special vehicle arrives for an equally special time.
That's exactly how I found myself dressed to the nines and behind the wheel of the BMW M6 Gran Coupe, a $135,375 (as-tested) rocket ship, en route to a rare multi-wedding weekend to celebrate with two pairs of my closest friends on the biggest day of their lives (a very special congratulations to Kara and Zach, and Laura and Andrew). Continuing with our nuptial theme, the M mechanicals and the 6 Series Gran Coupe body are a match made in heaven.

BMW brings burlesque, Warhol, M1 and 6 Series Grand Coupe to Paris Photo LA
Mon, 22 Apr 2013BMW has worked with Paris Photo for ten years. This year, the photography exposition lands in Paramount Studios in Los Angeles for the first time, and BMW is not only coming with it, the Bavarians are bringing the Art Car that started it all: the 1979 M1 painted by Andy Warhol. For those attending the show, there will also be making-of video of Warhol working on the car - but if you remember the mini lecture that EVO magazine's Henry Catchpole gave on the Art Cars, you'll remember that Warhol finished the car so quickly that the cameraman barely had time to get the film rolling.
With that will also be a series of photos of the BMW 6 Series Gran Coupe dropped into noir scenes accompanied by burlesque models, all taken by photographer Uwe Düttmann. It's the first time they'll be exhibited at Paris Photo. You can check out a few of them in the high-res gallery above, and there's a press release below with more info.
