1988 BMW E30 ///M3 ~PLEASE READ BEFORE BIDDING~ -Re-listed due to a childish bidder- If you need to ask permission before bidding, don't waste your time- Will provide more pictures upon request! This beauty is at 85% full restoration (RUST FREE), Engine is out of vehicle and is awaiting a valve adjustment.
This 1988 E30 M3 Painted Speed Yellow! Pictures do not do the vehicles color justice! Exterior of the vehicle has been painted while the door jams, under the hood and under the trunk are still Dakar Yellow. Vehicle's original color is Salmon Silver Metallic, the original owner had the vehicle painted when the Dakar color was released, There is no sign of the original paint color anywhere except a little behind the rear seat (seat has to be removed enable to see this color) Original black interior. Well Maintained with an 1 binder filled with records that go back to the 90s for this vehicle! This vehicle was not abused it was passed down from family member to family member then I had the lucky chance to purchase it.
Vehicle is in great physical condition with 202,286 miles on the chassis, and 0 miles on rebuilt motor, Car has been prepped and restored ground up, NO EXPENSES SPARED at this time, by a local BMW shop that has been specializing in bmws for the past 20+ years. Interior of the vehicle is in decent clean shape this was my next adventure for the vehicle, their are a few cracks in the dash (a very common e30 problem) Nothing that a dash cap couldn't fix, as well as normal wear throughout the interior, Driver seat has a few tears, rest of the seats are tear free. Interior is clean otherwise. Vehicle does not have a stereo! Why would you need one in a vehicle like this?!?! Vehicle has the following mods; - Jim Conforti Chip - H&R Springs - Racing Dynamics Adjustable Anti Roll bars F+R - Momo Steering wheel - Short Shifter Items Installed around 196k Miles - Sachs clutch/pressure plate/ clutch master cylinder/ clutch slave cylinder - Lower control arms and control arm bushing - Racing Dynamic sway bar bushings - Urethane Transmission Mounts - Distributor Cap + Distributor rotor These are just some of the mods and new parts, I know I am forgetting others.
No Shortcuts were taken in this project, My intentions were to make it perfect to my liking and keep the vehicle for as long as I could. Original motor threw a rod so i had to purchase a new block, crankshaft, rods and pistons. Engine has been fully rebuilt from ground up meaning there is 0 miles on the motor painted dakar yellow, its just paint obviously you as the new owner can paint it as you please, ALL OEM parts were used, Only thing that is needed is a valve adjustment, then you would have a perfect s14 engine. Crankshaft polished, complete valve job, ALL new gaskets, New head bolts, new oil pump, new oil pump shims, New rod bearings, new connecting rod bolts, new main bearings, few thousand miles on water pump, new piston ring set, ALL SIZES ARE STANDARD. New timing chains, new timing guides except one (still in perfect condition). (I'm probably forgetting somethings) Vehicle and Engine sold together, once again engine is out of vehicle awaiting a valve adjustment and installation. I do not have the tools nor capital to continue this adventure. Vehicle is sold AS-IS where is, no if ands or buts! Vehicle is located in Montclair, California with a CLEAR New Mexico Title. Buyer is responsible for all shipping and transportation needs for this vehicle.
DO NOT waste my time or yours. Do your research and ask questions. If you are bidding on this vehicle please have a feedback of at least 3+ if you are below this amount please email me ahead of time, there is to many scams going on and fake bidders. Also HAVE your FINANCES in order before bidding.
This could be a fun quick project for the right person or family. The value of this vehicle is only rising by day. I want this vehicle to go to someone that knows what the true meaning of the e30 m3 is and will care for it and love it as much as I did. Trust me if I didn't have to sell it I wouldn't sell it. -Vehicle is also sold locally- ~Happy Holidays~ |

BMW 8 Series coming in 2020
Tue, Feb 23 2016As good as the BMW 7 Series may be and trust us when we say it is very good indeed  it just can't compete with the marketplace juggernaut that is the Mercedes-Benz S-Class, at least not where global sales are concerned. And with sales come profits, especially at the six-digit price point many of these high-end luxury cars sell for. Put simply, Mercedes is cashing in on the S-Class, and BMW wants a bigger piece of that pie. It comes as little surprise, then, that Autocar reports BMW is currently considering two proposals for a new 8 Series that would slot just above its current 7 Series. One option is the currently-en-vogue four-door coupe. The other option is a more traditional two-door coupe, likely with a cabriolet option. The last time we heard such rumors, BMW was dismissing them back in 2013. Whichever way BMW decides to take its 8 Series plans, Autocar suggests that a concept vehicle ought to hit the show circuit in sometime in 2018, with a production model following in 2020. The car would be based on the underpinnings of the latest 7 Series, with a price considerably less than the Rolls-Royce Ghost (which also falls under the BMW umbrella). Considering BMW's penchant for multiple model variants, we won't be surprised if all three options get the green light, with a Gran Coupe version standing as the flagship. With the 6 Series Gran Coupe currently priced just below the 7 Series (and at a hefty premium to a comparable 5 Series four-door), an 8 Series would likely brush up against $100,000 for a base price. That might not take much out of S-Class sales, but it would make some tidy profits for BMW. Related Video:
Alpina bringing new B4 Bi-Turbo Cabrio to Geneva
Mon, 24 Feb 2014Interested in picking up a new BMW 4 Series with a turbo six? You've got options: you can get the 435i with 300 horsepower or spring for the M4 with 425 hp. But if it's the convertible model you want, we're afraid you'll be limited to the latter as the M division can't help you (at least not for the time being). But that's where Alpina comes in.
The aftermarket tuner closely associated with BMW offers the B4 Bi-Turbo (at least in Europe) with that same 3.0-liter twin-turbo inline-six massaged up to 410 horsepower that starts to pose a threat to the M4. What's more is that the Alpina's 442 pound-feet of torque eclipses the M4's 406 lb-ft, to say nothing of the 435i's 300.
Best of all, Alpina just confirmed via Facebook that it'll offer the B4 in convertible form, bringing the resulting BMW Alpina B4 Bi-Turbo Cabrio to the Geneva Motor Show. We'd expect the weight penalty to knock it slightly off the coupe's quoted 4.1-second 0-60 time, but not by much. If only BMW were to bring this one Stateside like it does with the B7 sedan.
BMW Films are on the way back [w/videos]
Mon, 17 Feb 2014The BMW Films series caused a stir in 2001 and 2002 by combining top-quality cinematography, Hollywood names and driving excitement to sell its sporty wares in a whole new way. By arriving five years before YouTube, they ranked as some of the earliest viral videos on the internet. By now, these sorts of films are almost commonplace, but back when BMW hit upon the idea, the idea of brand-integrated short films on the internet was still a novelty. Now, for the first time in over a decade, the German automaker is planning on bringing back BMW Films for a new season.
Trudy Hardy, BMW North America Vice President of Marketing, announced the series' return at the 2014 Automotive News World Congress in Detroit, according to Ad Age. However, neither the German brand nor Anonymous Content, the original production company, have been willing to comment further on when the new videos are coming.
The original series of eight films starred Clive Owen as the Driver (back then, Owen was largely unknown to American audiences), a mercenary who would take a variety of jobs and always drive a BMW. David Fincher executive produced the first season and directors included top names like John Frankenheimer, Ang Lee and Guy Ritchie. All of the second season movies had Owen driving a Z4, but in our estimation, the quality had fallen off a bit compared to the outstanding first season.
