 I am the 3rd owner of this vehicle. It was restored in the mid 90s and I had paper work of engine rebuild etc. but now I have lost all the papers. Car runs great, no smoke, oil leak, weird sounds or feel anything. It rides smooth and with so much torque at any speed and so the engine should have low miles from the rebuilt. It is hardly being driven in the last 10 years or so. I spent a lot of money recently, redoing a lot of stuff like the radiator, starter, new tires, new brakes, new belts, hoses, new bushings, new plugs, wires, oil change, gaskets etc. etc. Car runs fantastic and looks beautiful I have no problem doing 90 in an instant and highly recommend whoever buys the car to come down and drive it back. Just to have the joy of driving this beauty. I get compliments at every traffic light or stop sign, gas station etc. Sometimes people start screaming when they see the car. It is embarrassing how much people like this car even if they don't know what it is. I think it is the home made roof rack that I made for it.

Since I replaced the carburetor to the single side draft setup with a genuine Made in Italy weber 40 DCOE TIPO and Stahl header for better flow of air, I'm getting excellent fuel mileage. If I drive the car everyday a tank of gas lasts me two weeks but I don't ever drive it daily. I did all the maintenance in anticipation of selling the car here on ebay. I don't want to hear any ifs buts oh well etc. I don't want to hear any complaints! this is a 40+ year old car and it is by no means a show car nor a fully restored car! If you are looking for one of those then please quickly look at another one. That will save you and me a lot of headache! If you are looking for a solid rust free daily driver, fun reliable presentable car then this maybe the car for you. The paint is very presentable but by no means it is show quality. It has it's flaws, like nicks, dings, scratches, touch ups etc. I have no idea how old the paint is and I really don't care. It looks decent if you are not picky. So goes the interior. It is nice but has it's flaws like the dash has a few cracks, seats have a few stains, etc. The car has a moon roof. The car was originally a non-sunroof car. The previous owner did the moon roof and still works like new. No wind noise, no water leaks, no dry gaskets etc.

The car starts and runs everytime. No hesitation, no tuning every few thousand miles, no smell of unburnt gas, no eyes burning, no miss firisng, no over heating in 100 degree Texas heat. Just a joy to drive. It has the stock wheels and 4 speed transmission. The CD player does not work. The car has no rusts I can find, I checked the trunk, shock towers etc. Please look at the pictures and the car looks as nice under as over. The car is not a genuine 2002ti. I don't think they made ti in 72. I think ti were made in the late 60s but I could be wrong. Anyway, this is not a real ti just one with a badge but it has some really cool stuff that you won't find on a standard 2002.

Anyway, I'm an individual and can't provide a warranty with anything. Please do all your research, ask many questions, call me, come drive it whatever but please don't say if, buts, oops after the auction ends if you have won the auction. Again, it is a beautiful looking and driving car that is by no means a show quality car but if you don't mind a car that is fun, reliable and presentable as it sits then this maybe the right car for you. You can fly down and drive it anywhere. I would like 1000 as non refundable deposit through paypal and you can pay the difference when pickup the car or whatever we can work out. Again, all sales are final! Please don't waste my time or yours. I love the car but I'm getting rid of it because I have to. I have clear TX title in my name.

Here is a link to a lot of pictures on photobucket since ebay won't allow more than 24 pictures.

BMW M235i in circuit scrap with legendary E46 M3 CSL

Fri, 25 Apr 2014

Earlier this month, we brought you news that BMW's one-year wonder, the 2011 1 Series M Coupe, is actually trading for more money today than it did when new. That sort of short-term appreciation is a major rarity with modern production cars, but apparently it's not the only BMW enthusiast coupe to enjoy far-above-average residual values. The not-for-North America 2004 M3 CSL, itself a single-year offering, apparently also fits that description, as we've just learned from Auto Express.
The M3 CSL ruled overseas BMW showrooms a decade ago, with just 1,400 examples built. Based on the well-regarded E46 M3, the rare two-door was relieved of extraneous bits for improved track work and driver fidelity, coming in at around 240 fewer pounds than a garden-variety M3. With carbon-fiber-reinforced plastic bodywork, thinner glass and a lot less sound insulation, the CSL was one of the more raucous cars of its day. Like the 1M Coupe, it was also one of the more connected cars of the era, with a retuned suspension, quicker steering, and a bit more power than its brethren.
As Auto Express points out, a good used one commands about the same money as a brand-new 2014 M235i - the closest thing BMW makes to a 1M Coupe today - which makes this video track battle an interesting new-versus-used showdown. According to AE, a well-sorted used M3 CSL will run UK consumers anywhere between £30,000 and £35,000 - roughly $50,000 to $59,000 US. That's a massive premium over the $10k-17k British buyers can expect to shell out for a comparable standard M3, similar to the story that plays out for the 1M versus lesser 1 Series variants.

BMW can't build enough M3 wagons, but the U.S. won't see any

Sun, Jul 16 2023

Why, oh why, won’t the automobile companies that supposedly cater to Americans give us a viable touring wagon? Seems that BMW is one manufacturer thatÂ’s aware of the question, but skirts the answer. WhatÂ’s more frustrating is that the German company, and others, have for years been off-handedly tossing out the same refrain: “Maybe weÂ’ll bring a wagon back to the U.S.” Not. All the more irritating then is the news that the Bavarians have increased production in Munich of its M3 Touring longroof version to keep up with demand. The information comes via Bimmer Today, which spoke with BMW M CEO Frank van Meel. He said that the company was surprised by the amount of interest in the M3 Touring since its debut during last year's Goodwood Festival of Speed. In fact, he said, the company had to facilitate a production ramp-up within its Munich facility. Despite that increased production, the backlog of orders means that customers are still on wait lists, he said. Last year, van Peel admitted that demand for M-wagons in the U.S. has been steadily increasing, and exporting a touring example was a concept BMW was "taking into consideration.” Crossovers certainly are this decadeÂ’s version of the wagon, which leaves American enthusiasts will few choices: only expensive versions from Audi, Volvo and Mercedes-Benz and a couple of others. Details that were announced last year — a few months before the wagon went into production for sale in Europe, the U.K. and elsewhere — noted that the M3 Touring was only available in Competition spec with xDrive all-wheel drive and a 3.0-liter twin-turbo inline-six with 503 horsepower and 479 pound-feet of torque. Pricing started at GBP80,550 ($105,000 U.S.) More data on the M3Â’s intro here. Related video:

Mercedes leads in US luxury car thefts

Wed, 31 Jul 2013

Mercedes-Benz makes some fine automobiles. The Silver Arrow'd cars are so good, apparently, that thieves can't help but try to steal them. The German brand is at the top of the charts for luxury car thefts in the US, according to the National Insurance Crime Bureau, with New York City leading the way. (And those New Yorkers complain about Detroit being bad!)
The C-Class was the most stolen model, with 485 ganked between 2009 and 2012 in NYC alone, while the E-Class and S-Class (which also boasted the worst recovery rate, at 59 percent) both finished in the top ten. Following the C-Class was the BMW 3 Series and Infiniti G. Not surprisingly, each of these were the most common models in their respective lineups. Los Angeles and Miami are also prime hotspots for luxury car thefts, according to the Detroit News report.
While getting your car stolen is pretty awful, there was one inspiring statistic compiled by the NICB - the average recovery rate across the board was 84 percent, with the Cadillac CTS getting recovered 91 percent of the time.
