2005 BMW M3 Interlagos Blue Metallic Black Leather with M cloth inserts 50,600 miles * Location: Miami (33133) 6 Speed Manual Transmission ZCP - Competition Package (14.5:1 steering rack, M track mode, special interior trim, larger cross-drilled brake rotors) Manual Seats Heated Seats Xenon Headlights Harmon Kardon Sunroof There is very little to say about this car: You will be buying a car that is perfect externally, perfect internally, perfect mechanically, has low mileage for its age, and will provide years of driving enjoyment without any stress. Due to my free time to tinker and desire to deliver a perfect car, I replaced just about everything rubber underneath the car just in case their 9-year old age might cause issues despite the low mileage. This includes the engine mounts, front control arm bushings, guibo, transmission mounts, driveshaft center mount/bearing, and RTAB. The dust cap had fallen off of the belt tensioner pulley so I replaced the tensioner, bolt, caps, and idler pulleys as well as the belt as a precaution. The car has new air filter, cabin air filter, fluids (all OE except for Motul 600 brake fluid), front tires, lower center dash trim, plastic center console (with an extra armrest), interior bulbs, clean throttle bodies and idle control valve, and new battery within the last few weeks. Other notes: Inspection II with Valve adjustment at 42000; re-inspected valve clearances and VANOS at 50500 Rear tires at 42000 No subframe cracks Rear bumper re-sprayed from small marks made above diffuser during shipping New front brake rotors Curbed front wheel replaced, nicked rear wheel repaired Alignment Never smoked in The car is currently 100% stock with the exception of Koni shocks/H&R springs (which provide a very slight drop and in my opinion ride better than stock), Rogue RSMs, and Powerflex RTAB. If desired, I can return either or both of these to stock. If paid to do so, I can do other work such as subframe reinforcement and/or Beisan VANOS bulletproofing. [Additionally, because I own two other E46 M3s, I have a garage full of parts at my disposal, any of which may be used to sort of build this car to order, if that is desired. I'm speaking mainly of minor visual things like smoked corners, black kidneys and side grilles, matte trunk emblem, but as you can see in a few photos, I've had the car out with my 18x9.5et22 Apex ARC-8 custom gunmetal powdercoated setup while repairing the rear wheel; If you prefer the darker look, we can certainly make that happen. (I personally prefer the contrast of the OE chrome on blue, but this color looks so good it works both ways.) There could be other suspension and exhaust options as well. If you want AKG poly everything or Vibra Technics engine/trans mounts, etc, that can all be done. Just ask.] This car has had three prior owners: Two in the NY/NJ area and one near St. Louis who purchased the car in mid 2012 at 42k miles. It has a clean carfax (I can provide this to you as of February 2014) and no accident history. I purchased the car from him with the intention of driving it to Chicago to replace the 2004 Mystic Blue M3 pictured in my signature, which is about to hit 100k miles (and to take that car's 4.10 differential and a few other things as my "commission.") The buyer for that car didn't pan out, which was a risk that fortunately I was financially able to take. Since then I've kept the car here with me in Miami and gradually combed over every inch of the car taking it from purchase-worthy to collector-worthy. I firmly believe that it fits that description, and I won't sell you anything but the exact car that you expect and demand. I fully intend to own 3 uniquely purposed E46 M3s in the intermediate future, and let me tell you I'm tempted to keep this one every single day, but my plan is very specific, so I'm keeping my Alpine White/LSB 2005 M3 coupe instead. Included below are links to the only two other cars I've ever sold; Since purchasing my first car in August 2000 I have owned nothing but E46s, selling these two only to graduate in 2011 to a 2005 E46 M3 ZCP (this is all detailed in my M3F journal). I know this car inside and out and I link these to illustrate the fact that I have absolutely nothing whatsoever to hide, and I favor honesty, transparency, and an easy sale to a few extra dollars. (Or in the case of the 330Ci, which was later sold dishonestly on eBay for over a $3k profit, many extra dollars.) If you want to know anything about this car's story, my own 14-year E46 history of obsession, or anything else for that matter, just ask. http://forum.e46fanatics.com/showthread.php?t=842315 http://forum.e46fanatics.com/showthread.php?t=700791 As described, in stock form: $28,500 Anything else, we can discuss and arrange. Want a euro tray in the center console? A cinnamon interior? Different wheels? TCK coilovers? Exhaust stuff? Multifunction Steering Wheel Retrofit? Just ask. * - (rising as I drive) |

BMW X1 EV for Zinoro spotted
Tue, 04 Jun 2013BMW has teamed up with Chinese automaker Brilliance Automotive to create a joint venture in China, called Zinoro, and it appears that an all-electric version of the X1 crossover is to be the brand's first model. Spotted testing in Munich, these spy shots show a more camouflaged version of the X1 EV that we saw back in April.
Comparing these latest spy shots, we can see that the Zinoro model will wear a completely unique front fascia that ditches BMW's trademark grille, but few other changes seem to be taking place. Previous reports indicate that this Zinoro EV could go on sale in China early next year.

Comparison test: 2019 Acura RDX vs. compact luxury SUV competitors
Fri, Jun 1 2018Truth be told, if we were to compare the all-new 2019 Acura RDX with those compact luxury crossover SUVs it would most likely be cross-shopped against, you'd be looking at a different list. Even Acura admits that Lexus and Infiniti are the most likely bogies, but with the 2019 RDX, Honda's luxury brand is attempting to attract those customers who think as much with their hearts as with their heads. And for the most part, those folks have been buying from German brands: the Audi Q5, BMW X3 and Mercedes-Benz GLC-Class. So, to show how the new RDX compares to them, Acura actually provided examples of each during the recent press drive along with a Volvo XC60. All were determined to have greater emotional appeal than the last RDX, and we would certainly agree. For, as much as the previous-generation RDX made sense on paper, it was really hard to get excited about it. And when you're paying extra for a luxury vehicle, shouldn't you get a little excited? Well, as luck would have it, Consumer Editor Jeremy Korzeniewski and I were on hand in Whistler, British Columbia, for the press launch. We didn't have an abundance of time in each RDX competitor, but in conjunction with our usual comparison chart, our impressions should provide a good first taste of how the new RDX compares. Performance and fuel economy Contributing Editor James Riswick: On paper at least, the RDX is gutsier than its comparably powered European rivals. It also weighs the same or less, which logically should mean it'll be the quickest in a straight line. During my brief drives, though, I'm not sure it really stood taller than the three Germans. It at least matches them for smoothness, which is something that can't be said about the Volvo. Fuel economy is lower than them all when you consider all but the Mercedes come standard with all-wheel drive. It's also worth noting that all the competitors are available with engine upgrades, and unless Acura's forthcoming resurrection of Type S models includes the RDX, it should stay that way. Consumer Editor Jeremy Korzeniewski: Line 'em all up in a drag race, and I have a feeling the Acura would squirt away to victory. A good bit of that, though, would be due to its 10-speed automatic transmission, which offers a huge spread of ratios and fires off extremely quick shifts. In the real world, I'd guess fuel economy will be similar across the board, so I'm willing to call that category a draw.
