This is a very fine condition 2000 model year BMW M Roadster. It is not a concours winner, but is in very well maintained condition and all the important stuff is right, such as:
- No rust ever anywhere
- No dents or dings
- Shiny/glossy, well maintained original paint
- Interior does not look tired or worn, very fresh, no rips/tears
- New Dunlop Direzzas all around; (255/40) rears within last 1,000 miles, (225/45) fronts within last 10K.
- I believe the last owner put a new cloth top on just before I bought it, because the condition is excellent. Only minor fold scuff on plastic window. You can see top and window condition in photos, very good condition.
- New sway bar links/bushings (checked rotors and pads while I had everything off, and they look fine for another 10K anyway.
- Polished head light lenses last fall
- New emblems on hood and decklid, as they were starting to fade a little
- 3 owner car, all BMW enthusiasts who took good care of it, including frequent synthetic oil changes and all filters.
The car's few imperfections
- small piece (about 3'8" long) of driver's door tweeter bezel missing, I took a picture of it
- normal stone pecking and curb rash for a vehicle its age (worst of it in the photo)
- Analog electric clock does not keep accurate time
- Windows go down somewhat slowly, but go up normal speed. Might need some lube on weatherstrips.
- Shift knob emblem has air bubbles under the acrylic. It didn't bother me enough to replace it with a non-original part
While this car is not concours condition, it is a well maintained driver, that has NEVER seen snow, and rarely been in rain. I only goes out from May to October after all the salt has been washed off the road. You could take this car to your local car show and be very proud of her. If you have been following these cars values, you know that the M roadsters have already begun to appreciate (not so the normal Z3s yet); so it is a decent investment as well. I love this car and do not want to sell it, but need to make room in the garage. The car doesn't need anything, it is ready to give years of pleasure and reliable driving.
The car is priced very fairly with the buy it now very close to blue book, and the reserve below book. If you are realistic, a very fine car is waiting for you. All funds must clear before I will release vehicle, and I will support whoever you choose for shipping, but shipping is buyer responsibility. Have fun, and good luck!

BMW-Toyota partnership to spawn hybrid supercar
Wed, 06 Nov 2013BMW and Toyota inked a partnership some time ago to develop green technology, and while we were excited by the idea of a reborn Supra with BMW's carbon fiber reinforced plastic slashing the curb weight or an ultra-efficient, hybridized 1 Series, the joint efforts have been rather limited. That's set to change, though, according to a report from Australia.
Motoring reports that the partners have come to terms on a sports car. And not just any sports car, but a lightweight, hybridized model, with a six-figure price tag. Lending a bit of street cred to that idea is the site's claim that Toyota is currently carrying out durability testing on the BMW i8. According to the site, the new model will slot into the spot left by the Lexus LFA, although based on the language used, it's unclear if this is the Tokyo-bound vehicle we mentioned several months ago.
Details on this potential car are limited, although Motoring claims it will use a Toyota hybrid system mated up to a BMW gas engine - likely the 4.4-liter, twin-turbo V8 found in the M5 and M6. That sounds pretty amazing to us, but we'd still advise taking this with a grain of salt. What would you like to see out of a joint-venture supercar from Toyota and BMW? Let us know in Comments, and have your say on the prospects of a hybridized, twin-turbocharged V8.
2015 BMW Alpina B6 xDrive Gran Coupe priced from $118,225* [w/poll]
Wed, 05 Mar 2014If you're in the market for a high-performance BMW and you live in Europe, you've typically had two range of options at your disposal: you could go for one of BMW's own M models, or turn to Alpina. Though technically independent of BMW, Alpina is about as close to the manufacturer as a tuner can get, and many of its models are offered through BMW's own dealer network.
That's overseas, but in the North American market, BMW has typically taken a different approach, offering just one Alpina model - the B7 - to fill in for a lack of M7 performance sedan. That all changes, however, with the debut of the BMW Alpina B6 xDrive Gran Coupe.
Slotting in alongside the M6 Gran Coupe, the Alpina B6 xDrive Gran Coupe is marginally more expensive and slightly less powerful, but makes up for those relative (and negligible) shortcomings in spades. Both are based on the 6 Series Gran Coupe and both pack a 4.4-liter twin-turbo V8, but with key differences. Where the M6 produces 560 horsepower, the Alpina offers 'only' 540. But where the M6 channels 500 pound-feet of torque to the rear wheels through a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission, the Alpina drives 540 lb-ft to all four wheels through an eight-speed automatic.
BMW hires Ferrari chief engineer Fedeli
Wed, 08 Oct 2014There's going to be a little bit more Prancing Horse in some future BMWs because the Bavarian brand is hiring Ferrari chief engineer Roberto Fedeli to join the company in November. Fedeli's new position is still somewhat of a mystery though, and he reportedly might be lending his talents to the high performance M division or possibly even Rolls-Royce. When asked by Automotive News Europe, BMW said that it "currently can't say what his role will be."
Regardless of his new job, Fedeli was a big get for BMW because of his strong résumé. He has been with Ferrari since 1988 and led the engineering for the famous Italian automaker's vehicles since 2007. Fedeli tendered his resignation in September at around the same time that chairman Luca di Montezemolo announced his decision to leave the company. However, Ferrari told ANE that there was no connection between the two events.
