Gorgeous 2002 Bmw E46 M3 With Many Tasteful Upgrades! Not Driven In Winter! on 2040-cars
Brookfield, Wisconsin, United States
|
Hello all. Thanks for the interest in my M3. I purchased this M3 almost a year ago exactly. I purchased it with the intension of it being a fun summer car. I knew full well that it would not be driven in the winter because I had a Toyota Landcruiser for that part of the year. I enjoyed it greatly for the warmer months and put it away before the first snow last fall. My current though is to attempt to consolidate down to one car and purchase a BMW 335xi. I thought I would attempt to sell the M3 with this plan in mind. Please note that I am not in a hurry to sell. In fact, I love this car. If I end up keeping it for another year, I will do so gladly. Therefore, please don’t send me any lowball offers. I know how hard it is to find a well maintained E46 M3 6-speed, especially one with all of these nice upgrades (it took me about a year to find this car). In addition, this car is not wintered! No salt and muck. I kept it in the garage under car cover up on jack stands all winter long! I have just been waiting for all of the salt and snow to be off the roads before I take it back out. The buyer should know that this is a very well maintained car, and I
have a two inch thick folder full of receipts for the car totaling over $15,000
in repairs and maintenance! Some very high dollar fixes / replacements have
been completed including a NEW BMW transmission and clutch done about 2.5 years
ago to the tune of $7,500. Apparently some of the syncros had started to
complain a bit, so the previous owner had a factory replacement transmission
installed, and then sold the car… bad for him. Great for me (and you). All of
the normal BMW M3 issues have already been addressed. Wheel bearings, bushings,
etc all upgraded and/or done. Bilstein coil-overs CSL front bumper CSL rear spoiler CSL Diffuser BMW 330d short throw shifter Powercoated black 19"s with NEW Conti DW Tires Magnaflow catback stainless steel exhaust - sounds awesome! AFE intake New Stoptek Slotted rotors with red calipers and Hawk pads Angel eyes Other really cool add-ons : Dice Ipod hook up in glove box ZHP Alcantara steering wheel ZHP Alcantara shifter boot with ZHP knob Carbon fiber Dinoc trim Carbon fiber side gills Black Kidney grills Professionally Tinted windows Some additional items within the last year: New rear trailing arm bushings and alignment New differential pinion and output shaft seals New thermostat and Coolant flush Please forgive the somewhat random photos. I still have the car in storage and just pulled these together from my phone pics. Please feel free to Call or text with questions 4I4-587-I789 or email:

BMW 5 Series wagon makes incognito grocery run by way of the 'Ring
Mon, 21 Jul 2014With a debut in 2009, it's high time that BMW delivered the world with the standard mid-cycle refresh of its popular 5 Series. While we aren't expecting to see it here in the United States, that freshening will include the vehicle shown above, the 5 Series wagon.
This is only the second time we've spotted the camo'd, long-roof 5er in the past year, and while it was chained to a flat-bed in those snaps, today, we can see it lapping the Nürburgring. In addition to the images from the track, we also have our first look at the cabin of the freshened 5 Series, although even it is covered in camouflage, making it quite difficult to spot anything of substance.
As for the exterior, expect modest changes for the second-half of the F10 5er's life, with typical tweaks like new headlights and taillights, and perhaps a freshened front fascia. Considering we last saw the upcoming 5 Series just over a year ago, we'd expect an auto show debut for this smoothed-over model in the not-so-distant future, with Paris a leading candidate.
The Homer to contest 24 Hours of LeMons
Thu, 27 Jun 2013It's finally happened. A 24 Hours of LeMons team has built the definitive interpretation of The Homer from The Simpsons for competition in an upcoming race. As you may recollect, The Homer is the fictional car designed by Homer Simpson for his brother's car company. Designed with a separate compartment for screaming children and other Homer-centric goodies, the animated machine bankrupted its parent company and put Homer's brother out of a job. Now we get to watch it race other crap cans as it tackles Southern California's Buttonwillow Raceway on June 29. Scott Chamberlain, Kris Linquist, Reid Conti, Ben Reilly and Mike Yepes will helm the machine, and Jeff Herman serves as the team's creative director.
The racer is the latest incarnation of a well-abused BMW 3 Series. The team campaigned the same E30 under the "Prickstine" banner as a Chrysler Imperial tribute and "Porcubimmer," the latter being a riff on the ever-popular joke about the difference between porcupines and BMW models. Never gets old. You can check out a video of the finished Homer below, and be sure to like the team on Facebook to see updates from the race. Now, about that Canyonero...
2014 BMW 2 Series configurator drifts online
Wed, 15 Jan 2014Monday marked the official, live unveiling of the 2014 BMW 2 Series. Not a company to rest on its laurels, BMW has unveiled the online configurator for the replacement to the much-loved 1 Series. Potential customers can select from either the 228i or go all-out and get the M235i. We shouldn't have to explain which car we've been building all day.
As a recap, a base 228i starts at $32,100 not counting a $925 destination charge. It includes 240 horsepower, 258 pound-feet of torque and, when optioned with the six-speed manual rather than the eight-speed automatic, a perfect 50/50 weight distribution (the 8AT balances at 50.3 in front and 49.7 in back). The M235i, meanwhile, starts at $43,100 (although you can't actually buy one for that, because the configurator forces you into a $1,450 Dakota leather interior). It offers up significantly more grunt, with 320 hp and 320 lb-ft from its 3.0-liter, turbocharged straight six.
