1995 Bmw M3, Turner Motorsports E36 Stage 2, Rust Free Fl Car on 2040-cars
Bradenton, Florida, United States
I’m offering up my 1995 E36 M3 on eBay for your
consideration today because I really don’t drive it as I had intended too. I
bought it last year from a true BMW fanatic in
When I was looking for an E36 M3 to buy, I looked at
several. This one stood out to me though, because it was obviously a car that
had been cared for, was enthisiest owned, and was a rust free While in my posession, I have serviced and maintained the car, replaced a few broken things and basically kept what the previous owner was doing, going. I will describe each area of the car in detail below. I’m sure I will miss something, so if after reading the entire description you have any questions, please feel free to ask. I am very honest in my descriptions and also very picky about my cars. So I note every little imperfection that other sellers may not. I do this so you know exactly what you’re looking at and it’s all out on the table with nothing hidden or held back.
If you’re looking for an honest, genuine E36 M3 of the right year, in the right colors with all the right mods, that you could get in and drive anywhere immediately this is the one for you! Body: This is an accident free car, with a clean Carfax. It was
originally purchased on the east cost of Interior: The interior of this car is amazing. It has manual “Vaders”, that most people seem to like. The dash has no cracks, the seats are all excellent. The door panels were replaced with brand new ones shortly before I purchased the car. The headliner has been replaced and is excellent. All gauges are clear and work as they should. It has an aftermarket Kenwood CD stereo installed with Bluetooth. The power sunroof works great. The carpets are all excellent. The interior is a very nice place to be. Engine: What can I say about the SB50 that hasn’t already been said? Beautiful smooth power all over the rev range. This one has been treated to a stage two Turner Motorsports tune with a Conforti chip, and Turner (aFe) intake. This one is both quiet and smooth, that is until you get on it and then she howls! It has the stock exhaust, so it’s quiet, but when you get it in the upper rev range, you hear the wonderful intake growl, it’s a beautiful thing.. The engine has no knocks, no ticks, no issues. Rock solid cooling system as well. It’s a 1995 model, so it’s an OBDI car. Transmission/clutch: This car has the stock 5 speed manual transmission in it. It shifts smooth with no noises or issues. It has a Turner Motorsports short shift kit installed which really improves the shift action over the stock setup. I do not know what make/model clutch is in the car, but suffice to say, it is very good. It bites hard, with no slip, and excellent pedal feel. Rear axle: The rear diff was replaced when under the care of the previous owner. It has been replaced with a Turner Motorsports E36 Diff upgrade, as well as a slightly shorter set of gears that really wake this car up. I can't quite remember what ratio he told me was in it (3:63 maybe?). Either way, it's a great upgrade that really wakes the car up! Suspension: Stock suspension setups on BMW’s are very good indeed, and unless the owner follows a proven route when modifying it, it can spoil the car completely. This car has what I think is the only suspension setup for the E36 that is an improvement over stock. It has Bilsteins all around, with H&R springs. It has also been treated to an “X”-brace. To say “It’s on rails” is to put it mildly. This thing is so direct and communicative it’s mind-blowing. Brakes: The brakes on this car where the only thing that needed immediate attention when I got it. They worked fine, but the front disks were worn and had begun to warp. So I replaced them with some quality aftermarket disks plus some new StopTech pads. She brakes strong and straight now. Tires: The tires are all matching Nexen N7000. They were installed shortly before I bought it, and I would estimate have about 7500 miles on them. So, they are all excellent. Needs: As with all older cars, it’s not new. The A/C would be the first thing that needs to be done on it. It holds a charge, but does not blow cold. A new compressor with clutch would fix it right up. The power windows both work, however the passenger side can get hung up if lowered beyond half way. This goes hand in hand with a rattle inside the passenger side door. I believe a clip or something has come loose and if retrieved and re-attached all would be well with the window and door. Also, the coolant level sensor is bad. As mentioned before, the cooling system is excellent, but the level sensor indicates to check the cooling system level when starting up and shutting off, Finally, I did not replace the wear sensors then I replaced the front pads, so the “ABS” light is always on. So, there you have it, the good and the bad about the car.
Anyone interested and within driving distance is more then welcome to come and
see it in person. Regarding the sale; I am not interested in trades, and will
only accept cash, or a cashiers check from a well known institution as payment.

BMW expounds on i8 design and performance in new videos
Fri, 03 Jan 2014At this point, there isn't much we don't know about the 2015 BMW i8, so BMW is starting to focus its attention on reassuring consumers that the future of BMW won't abandon the past. In these two recently released videos, BMW answers questions prospective buyers might have about about the new model's design and performance.
In the design video, BMW explains how the i8's styling is intended to be practical, with aerodynamics and fuel efficiency in mind, yet still have a sporty and dynamic look. The performance video aims to show that the plug-in hybrid can be fuel efficient while still delivering plenty of performance, and it shows an animation about how the i8's drive systems work together. Scroll down to watch both videos on this bold green supercar.
Mercedes may be working on a new electric car dubbed 'Ecoluxe'
Fri, Dec 26 2014Automobile has a lengthy piece this month on how the four German mass-market luxury manufacturers each plan to go after Tesla with their own electric vehicles. It was written by Georg Kacher, the magazine's European bureau chief, and the English version came a month after he wrote the German-language original for Autobild. Tesla isn't exactly a threat to the Germans, but, according to the report, the Model S is planting the right kinds of seeds in niches that are important to the luxury players. The thinking is that - in addition to needed electric vehicles anyway for stricter US regulations - it's better to start designing the machinery now. The article posited Porsche's attack would rest on the coming Panamera platform, but a big hurdle would be battery placement. Unable to find one large space for a lithium-ion pack, engineers would instead put batteries everywhere they could, for a supposed tally of some "108 battery pouches" throughout the body. A few days after the Automobile piece, however, Porsche publicly said it had no intention of challenging the Model S, because the enthusiastic driving the brand is known for doesn't jive with useful range. In Kacher's retelling, Mercedes' plans are even more ambitious, supposedly taking aim at the Model S and the coming Model X. It would do this with an investment in excess of $2 billion in a program called "Ecoluxe" – Mercedes has no brand division akin to BMW's i and Audi's e-tron. The new brand would create a four-strong family of bespoke electric vehicles: a smaller platform with a wheelbase around 106 inches and a larger one with a wheelbase around 118 inches. In addition, the range would have "provisions for rear-wheel drive, all-wheel drive, and rear-wheel steering." The numbers are impressive: seating for seven in the larger vehicles, both longer than 16 feet, front and rear storage areas, ratings of up to 610 horsepower and production capacity of 80,000 units per year. When would we see such creatures? Perhaps as soon as 2019. We do know that if Tesla can knock the Model X over the outfield fence, automakers are going to have to do something. We don't know what the chances are that Ecoluxe is Mercedes' first move - but such a plan could help explain the weird Mercedes concept spied in October.
BMW ReachNow just became a full-fledged mobility services program
Tue, Nov 15 2016Since officially opening its doors with 370 cars in Seattle in April, BMW's ReachNow has made little expansions. It stared operations in Portland and grew to 760 cars. Today, it also announced that Brooklyn would join the list, and that the number of available cars to share would climb to 1,030. But the big news is that the scope of ReachNow's efforts has just grown tremendously. Instead of just the original, short-term car rental option ReachNow will now be able to do all sorts of things. These include: ReachNow Ride: Similar to Lyft and Uber, this is a ride-hailing program where someone drives you to your destination. You can request a driver and set personal experience options, like setting a radio station or requesting silence for the ride. A pilot program will start in Seattle. ReachNow Fleet Solutions: BMW's version of Zipcar, but only for residents of specific apartment buildings. This is a station-based, dedicated car sharing plan and the first pilot will be in Manhattan, starting in a few weeks. It will be based at The Solaire in lower Manhattan and will use plug-in i3s exclusively. ReachNow Reserve: Remember good, old-fashioned rental cars? This is like that, but a bit fancier. BMW's longer-term rental service will let you schedule a particular model, which will then be delivered to you. You can keep it as long as you like, but we assume that if you're thinking of not giving it back for a few months, you're doing it wrong. ReachNow Share: BMW saw what Turo (nee Relay Rides) was doing and figured it was a good idea. With this program, you will be able to rent out your own 2016 or 2017 Mini for a minimum of two days, making you a bit of cash from your car when you're not using it. This rolls out in December in Seattle, and ReachNow CEO Steve Banfield said that it may expand to other models in the future. At #AutoMobilityLA, @turo says it has 2 million activated users and 120,000 listed vehicles. Claims the average monthly earning is $536* pic.twitter.com/gWHdrvPRWV — AutoblogGreen (@AutoblogGreen) November 15, 2016 ReachNow currently have 32,000 members, and all of these services are available to them through the ReachNow app. For a "limited time," new users can save the $39 registration fee as part of an introductory offer, and per-minute charges for the regular ReachNow service are 41 cents a minute instead of 49. At #AutoMobilityLA , @reachnow announces third city for @BMW's car sharing services: Brooklyn.
