Bmw M3 Base Coupe 2-door on 2040-cars
Evadale, Texas, United States
1998 BMW M3. I am the sixth owner, and I have used this car as my weekend cruiser/backroad corner carver. The engine sounds very healthy, delivers power very linearly, and is very smooth with oil changes every 6500 miles using Castrol Edge 5W-30 full synthetic motor oil and OEM filters. The clutch feels solid, and the transmission shifts very smoothly. The entire cooling system was replaced at 122,000 miles in mid February 2011 including a new water pump with a metal impeller. There are also rear shock tower reinforcement plates installed. This month I replaced the final stage unit and the AC compressor belt. The car has been to one track day, and two auto-x events in its life. I have service records from the point it was bought by the second owner as a CPO in 2000. This M3 does have some tasteful modifications to improve its handling capabilities.

BMW i3 misses top Euro safety rating [w/videos]
Wed, 27 Nov 2013The Euro NCAP just tested a recent batch of new cars including the 2014 BMW i3, and the EV Bimmer scored less-than-perfect results. Though not horrible, BMW's all-electric/range-extended i3 was given a four-star (out of five possible) crash rating due to concerns with front-occupant whiplash and side-impact protection.
Based on the crash results, the BMW provided suitable protection for occupants in the frontal, side barrier, pedestrian and child-seat tests, but the i3 was tripped up when it came to the more severe side pole test and the rear-impact test. The pole test showed protection to the chest of the test dummy was "weak," and the front seats only provided "marginal" protection against whiplash for front passengers. Scroll down to watch two videos released by the Euro NCAP of the i3 being tested.
Watch this BMW take flight at Viru Rally
Mon, 20 Oct 2014An E36 BMW 3 Series might be a good choice for a lot of purposes - a long road trip, a track day, rallycross, impressing your friends... but a full-on rally? It's rear-drive when the best rally machines are front- or all-wheel drive. But that didn't stop Pritt Koik and Alari-Uku Heldna from entering their stripped-out E36 in the Viru Rally in Estonia... or from getting some big air time when they did.
Fortunately the jump was not just caught on video... it was caught on video from three angles: two from the side of the rally stage and one from inside the cockpit. Check out all three below to see how this particular BMW got back into the aircraft business.
