For sale is my 2003 BMW m3.. It is a very clean car.. gets looks everywhere I go.. I am the 2, 3rd and 4th owner let me explain.. I purchased this car used gosh years ago.. Had a divorce and sold it to my father for safe keeping, I still drove it, and then once done I purchased it back from my father.. So hope that clears up confusion if you do a car fax.. I have the documents to prove this as well..
Mechanically its sound, all inspections are uptodate, including inspection 2 was performed just this may at a certified dealer (I have documentation). SMG pump, Clutch, Flywheel, gear selector system was all replaced last year at again the same certified BMW dealer and I have reciepts to show it.. So you have a year left on the warranty of those parts if needs be..
While inspection 2 was being done, I replaced the waterpump, radiator, coil packs, plugs, transmission fluid, rear differential cover and fluid, of course motor oil TWS 10w60 and mann filter like the car always has had via the dealer only. power steering hoses are new as the pressure had a slow drop to it this spring, so during inspection I had it replaced also. Belt etc all brand new.. as of this spring... Car runs like a dream!! No subframe issues were found when inspected.
Car has new suspension bushings, brakes have around 6K miles on them as they were replaced last year ar around 88K miles give or take a few.. Tires are new as of this spring so 90% tread left on them..
Wheels are 19" CSL wheels staggered fitment, OEM suspension, CSL replicated Carbon roof, Carbon GTR hood (its painted to match the car minus the vents), Carbon trunk lever, and carbon diffuser.. It looks great off the matte black paint.. which was done in the spring also.. again I have reciept from the body shop who did it.. The color is Duport Hot Rod Black.. surprisingly very easy to clean... soap and water and microfiber towel dry and your done for the paint.. that simple!! Looks supurb, and def gets attention!! Also has the CSL front bumper lip..
Interior is in excellent condition also, leather has always been conditioned and cleaned. floor mats are in great shape and are the orginials. Stereo is only thing not OEM, but if buyer demands I have the OEM hardon Kardon stuff I can toss back in and keep my upgraded stuff but price of vehicle will not change due to this, and buyer only gets one..
I have 6.5" Alpine type R component sets in the doors, and the rear deck lid, and a layer of dynamat in the trunk, floor, and doors of this car.. It has a sony HD headunit for HD radio listening or for your Ipod which I use a lot.. I even have a 12" Sub that is in the trunk and easily removeable... The stereo completely rocks, No you wont win car shows with the stereo, or a competition with it.. But It sure the heck beats OEM by a heck of a lot.. Its boarder line too loud if you want it.. But it is super clean and crisp... I listen to rock and country often (yes odd mix) but it plays mudvayne exceptional then I toss brad paisley in and it sounds just as good.. and rumbles the mirrors without distortion..
Lights on the car all all HID 6000K, and are the auto adjustible versions.. meaning they align themselves automatically.. You can see it once you first power up the car.. the headlights will move up and down and find the center.. its kinda cool but ive grown used to it..
Exhaust is OEM, and the o2 sensors I replaced this spring when I did the inspection just cause they claim 90-100k is average life of a sensor, so I just went ahead and put new ones in while I was there.. it didnt need it but i did it anyways.. I am kinda picky on this car, and any sign of trouble it goes to the dealer asap... but i never really had any issues with it.. and its in my view in excellent condition.. all the major if;s on the m3 cars I have either replaced, or upgraded already with documents to show it... so the new owner should have years of driving pleasure with no concerns..
drives straight, handles amazingly like any m car should, and it isnt the fastest off the line but it does well.. It shines in the upper rpm range and on the highway... I never had it going to 160+ but i bet it will do it no doubt about it.. the car shocks lots of stangs and camaros when they toy with it.. lol... that being said its been my m3 for years, if you want a car that never once in its life been ran hard keep looking.. I have redlined it before and gotten on it and drove it like it should, but 80% the time I drove it like it was a metro haha!! so No it was not abused.. it was never on the strip or any track for that matter.. and if anyone who owns a sports car says they never got on their car to see some power they are liars... I have and will admit to it, and darn its fun!!! But it was never anything i did on a daily basis by any means..
car never was driven in snow or salt.. heck i barely drive it in any bad weather.. once in a while rain if i get caught in it.. but normally it sits in my garage on bad days.. but when its sunny I drive it, and i like to drive it a lot... I put a years worth of mileage on it in 4 months every year cause I try and drive it that much.. but once weather comes.. its in the garage with a cover over it, and tis started here and there just to keep it going well and not to drain the battery..
Ohh that reminds me the battery is new last fall too, its a OEM BMW battery that I wish i went to autozone for as it cost me around 300 dollars and i could did it myself for around 70.. ohh well, least its new...
questions please ask away.. ill be happy to answer them, and sales are final.. I wont do joy rides with you etc.. if you buy it ill take you around the street, on the highway etc.. but till its paid for i wont let you drive it.. sorry I had a supra i sold once and god knows how many kids tried to buy it and just wanted to drive it then was like well i cant afford it.. so no no joy rides.. if you cant show me your serious your not getting in it to drive till its in your name, or you serioulsy convince and show me a bank check/cash that you are serious.. sorry thats just the rules...
PS.. I am not intrested in trades... I want the good ole dollar bill for this car, and not a civic and wheels and cash, nothing of that sort... I have other cars so none of that BS about winter and you will trade me a 4x4 to drive cause its better in winter.. If you read this far i think you can read above i dont drive it in weather so its obvious I already have a 4x4 i daily drive year round if im not in the m3... so no i dont need another car, or anything else..
Buyer will pick up the car, and if you are flying in to drive it home, i can arrange to get you from the airport, then to the bank to grab the title, and you can then drive it home or load on t trailer, or whatever... Or I can arrange with your shipping company to pick it up for delivery.. whatever you choose.. enjoy!!
******To note if buyer wants I have agentcy headers, resonated midpipe, and exhaust system for this car I just never installed.. If buyer would want these also I will let them go for 2000.00 extra the exhaust and midpipe alone sell for that new, the header is around 1100 dollars by itself new.. and my stuff has never been used or installed.... But these items are not included with the sale of this auction but can be added if the buyer wishes to purchase them from me upon pickup of car.. email/contact me and I can provide photos of them all..

The mysterious and elusive Quandt family is in hot water again, nearly two years after its Nazi connections during World War II were exposed. The German family's patriarch, Herbert Quandt, nearly single-handedly saved BMW from being bought out by Daimler-Benz in 1959. Now, three living family members own nearly half of the German brand, and stand accused of buying votes with donations to the party of German Chancellor Angela Merkel, mere days ahead of a European Union vote that would cap vehicle emissions.
Merkel's conservative Christian Democratic Union accepted three donations, one from each shareholding member of the Quandt family.
Merkel's conservative Christian Democratic Union accepted three donations, one from each shareholding member of the Quandt family, totaling 690,000 euros ($935,000), on October 9. The CDU, for what it's worth, claim the donations weren't related to any political decisions and that the family have been donors for years. A Quandt family spokesperson, meanwhile, said that the family had been waiting for Germany's September 22 elections to pass before making a large contribution to the CDU.

The 2015 BMW X4 configurator is ready for your special touch. Starting with the 300-horsepower xDrive35i that starts at $48,925 after destination, our special touch aimed at a luxury cruiser and added $9,250 to proceedings for a final tally of $58,175. That got us the Technology, Lighting and Driver Assistance packages, navigation and enhanced USB and smartphone integration. We were tempted to go for the Dynamic Damping Control for just $1,000 and a set of 20-inch M Double Spoke Wheels, but the configurator didn't want to mix the M Sport Line with our Sparkling Brown metallic exterior hue so we skipped it.
We've covered the details on pricing and the breakdown of the order guide elsewhere, so you can always click through for refreshers. Or you can skip all those words and dive straight into trying to build an X4 that makes you say, "Yeah, now I get it."

The second-generation BMW X3 launched in late 2010, and while it's never really wowed us, it's still a solid offering in a highly competitive class. In an effort to keep things fresh, BMW has given its X3 a nip/tuck for the 2015 model year, but perhaps the biggest news (for the US market, anyway) involves what's found underhood.
In addition to the 2.0-liter turbo-four and 3.0-liter turbo-six, BMW will now offer an X3 xDrive28d, fitted with - you guessed it - the 2.0-liter turbodiesel inline four-cylinder engine found in the 328d sedan. Output for this engine is rated at 180 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque, and BMW says this oil-burning mill will help the X3 reach 60 miles per hour in just under eight seconds. The automaker hasn't released any information about real or predicted fuel economy figures for the diesel X3, as yet.
What's more, BMW will once again offer a two-wheel-drive X3 in the States - the sDrive28i. Pricing for the refreshed 2013 X3 starts at $39,325, not including $925 for destination. Opting for that diesel will set you back $42,825. Scroll down for the official press release, and check out a new brace of shots live from the soft-roader's Geneva Motor Show debut.
