Check out the unbelievably beautiful photos, complete with lots of detail close-ups at very high resolution (much higher than eBay offers), especially of the amazing customizations. All told, more than $100K went into making this one-of-a-kind supercar. Right from the factory, it came fully loaded with literally every option:
Dinan, the world's best BMW customizer, has done everything possible to this car - it's a Stage 3 R (S3-R) mod with:
This specific Dinan E46 S3-R configuration has been lovingly reviewed by:
I'm the original owner and all service has been done by the dealer (Steven's Creek BMW in San Jose) and Dinan. I custom ordered it from the factory and had it delivered with the Dinan Supercharger, suspension, etc already installed. It's never been in an accident, and I've loved & babied this car like it was part of the family. It spent most of its life in a garage, with frequent detailing & waxing. Originally intended to be an occasional track car, it turned out to be an amazing daily driver and never actually made it to the track. I made one further modification, which is to install an iPod dock in the center console. It interacts properly with the on-board computer & audio systems so you can play your favorite music from an iPod rather than CDs. I have an InspectMyRide Premium Vehicle Report that confirms just how amazing this car truly is. The vehicle report includes photos of all the very few tiny nicks & scratches in the paint, with rulers so you can see their exact size. It just had its regular service and passed California Smog last year so you'll be screaming along immediately. I'd still be driving this amazing car if I hadn't fallen in love with all-electrics and gotten myself a Tesla. I've invested more than $100K in the car & modifications, loved every second of owning it, and can't wait to find a great new home for it. Will it be yours? |

EVO "2012 Car of the Year: The Track Battles" is a sports car salmagundi
Sun, 25 Nov 2012EVO has come out with another gotta-watch-it video, throwing its 2012 Car of the Year contestants around the UK's 1.5-mile Blyton Park track. It's actually a 15-minute teaser for the full-length DVD detailing the magazine's Car of the Year selection, but the tease is worth every penny free second.
Tiff Needell and sports car racer Richard Meaden handle the wheel duties, the two driving five pairs of sports cars: Lotus Exige S vs. Porsche Boxster S, Morgan Three-Wheeler vs. Toyota GT86, BMW M135i vs. Porsche 911, Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Black Series vs. Alpina B3 GT3, the marquee event pits the McLaren MP4-12C vs. the Pagani Huayra. After a head-to-head lap with commentary during drifts, Meaden takes each car out to set a representative lap time.
You'll find the verdicts, lots of tire smoke, and lines like "Anything you can do sideways I can do sideways" in the video below.

Husqvarna sold to KTM CEO Stefan Pierer
Fri, 01 Feb 2013A couple of days ago the UK's Motorcycle News reported that BMW was in the final stages of selling Husqvarna to KTM, with a deal potentially confirmed as soon as this week. Following that came reports that Husqvarna Motorcycles wasn't sold to KTM but to a Pierer Industries, the company owned by KTM CEO Stefan Pierer. Turns out the advance report was true, as was the follow-up: BMW has just announced a "strategic realignment" of its Motorrad division, explaining that it sold Husqvarna to Pierer Industries in order to focus on the urban and e-mobility segments. Husqvarna's off-road machines, obviously, don't fit into those categories.
BMW bought the Italian-based bike maker with centuries-old Swedish roots in 2007 - the rest of the Husqvarna company remains based in Sweden - and has invested huge sums to integrate the smaller company into the larger parent. Six years later, just when dividends should begin to truly pay off, the brand is sold.
Before BMW made its announcement, one of the theories that forum members put forward for Pierer's interest in purchasing Husqvarna was that he wants his own business to run his own way. The parent company of KTM, Cross Industries, is 47.27-percent owned by India's Bajaj Automotive, with Pierer the majority shareholder, and is on a quest for global growth, taking the fight to BMW in Europe and launching new bikes and technology into the Indian market. Compared to BMW's and KTM's 2012 sales of around 100,000 bikes each in 2012, Husqvarna sold 10,751 bikes, which was a 15.7-percent increase over the previous year. Pierer would have a lot more freedom in the running of a company of that size.
