2006 Bmw Z4 M Roadster Convertible 2-door 3.2l In Pristine Condition on 2040-cars
Sandy, Utah, United States
Since you are searching for M Roadsters on Ebay, I assume you are aware of this vehicle's pedigree--its famous 330 horsepower 3.2L acceleration, its short-shift six-speed transmission, its razor-sharp suspension, its throaty purr or it's terrifyingly effective 4-wheel slotted disc brakes. I won't bore you by detailing the car's specifications because you already know this car and you know what you want. You want the pure joy of a premium open-air wind-in-your-face thrill ride on wheels, and you have many roadsters to choose from. I won't badmouth somebody else's vehicle here--these roadsters are incredibly well built machines and you would likely be thrilled with any one of them. Still, you have to ask yourself; Which one do I choose? I am a car nut. In the last 10 years I have owned a 2002 Mini S, a 2005 Honda S2000, a 2006 Nissan 350Z, a 2002 M Roadster (the Z3 body) and a 1984 Porsche 911 whale tail, all of them exceptional in their own way and every one of them in terrific condition. None of them, however, were as quick, better looking, powerful, cleaner or refined as this 2006 M Roadster. I searched for more than a year before I found this one, and I bought it after considering several other M's. I bought it because I am faastidious about vehicle condition, and that is the only reason you will buy my car instead of somebody else's. The paint is nearly flawless; there are no dents or dings on the car. There are no scuffs beneath the front spoiler or cracks in the underbody ABS. The 19" wheels and tires have less than 800 miles on them and are in absolutely perfect condition. (Two of the previous smaller wheels had minor curb rash, so I replaced all of them). I also added two billet spacers to the rear wheels, offsetting them by approximately 1 3/4 inches. The spacers reduce oversteer, but I am more impressed with how they shape the back end. There isn't a single chip, crack or discoloration in any of the original windows. There are no tears, thinning or discolorations in the interior leather, including the thick leather steering wheel, heavily bolstered seats or shifter. No one has smoked in this car. I encourage (and expect) you to walk or crawl around the car until you find the slightest blemish in the paint. You will, eventually, because it's a used car, but it is as close to showroom condition as any car being offered for sale on this site or any other. Every switch, dial, knob or control works perfectly. There are zero hidden defects. Full disclosure: Since I have owned the vehicle (one year), I have put less than 2,000 miles on it. Still, I have replaced the engine oil twice, I have replaced the stainless steel head bolt caps (they were faded in color), I have replaced the gas tank leak detection pump, purchased the wheels, tires and spacers, had the car safety checked/emissions tested and purchased a new 960 amp battery (because the original battery was 8 years old) and purchased a car cover. The roadster is garaged and covered. The people at Kelly Blue Book claim that a 2006 M Roadster like mine--with 25,000 miles in excellent condition with every conceivable option--is worth $31,730, and that price does NOT include what I paid for the wheels, tires and spacers. I will use the KBB price as my "Buy it Now" price but I will consider lesser offers. Please bid with confidence. I love talking cars, so please feel free to call, text or email me with your questions about my roadster. Depending on your location, I may be able to deliver the car. Mike 801.891.1938 |

8 automakers, 15 utilities collaborate on open smart-charging for EVs
Thu, Jul 31 2014We're going to lead with General Motors here. GM is one of eight automakers working with 15 utilities and the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) at developing a "smart" plug-in vehicle charging system. Why did we start with GM? Because it's the first automaker whose press release we read that mentioned the other seven automakers. Points for sharing. For the record, the collaboration also includes BMW, Toyota, Mercedes-Benz, Honda, Chrysler, Mitsubishi and Ford. The utilities include DTE Energy, Duke Energy, Southern California Edison and Pacific Gas & Electric. The idea is to develop a so-called "demand charging" system in which an integrated system lets the plug-ins and utilities communicate with each other so that vehicle charging is cut back at peak hours, when energy is most expensive, and ramped up when the rates drop. Such entities say there's a sense of urgency to develop such a system because the number of plug-in vehicles on US roads totals more than 225,000 today and is climbing steadily. There's a lot of technology involved, obviously, but the goal is to have an open platform that's compatible with virtually any automaker's plug-in vehicle. No timeframe was disclosed for when such a system could go live but you can find a press release from EPRI below. EPRI, Utilities, Auto Manufacturers to Create an Open Grid Integration Platform for Plug-in Electric Vehicles PALO ALTO, Calif. (July 29, 2014) – The Electric Power Research Institute, 8 automakers and 15 utilities are working to develop and demonstrate an open platform that would integrate plug-in electric vehicles (PEV) with smart grid technologies enabling utilities to support PEV charging regardless of location. The platform will allow manufacturers to offer a customer-friendly interface through which PEV drivers can more easily participate in utility PEV programs, such as rates for off-peak or nighttime charging. The portal for the system would be a utility's communications system and an electric vehicle's telematics system. As the electric grid evolves with smarter functionality, electric vehicles can serve as a distributed energy resource to support grid reliability, stability and efficiency. With more than 225,000 plug-in vehicles on U.S. roads -- and their numbers growing -- they are likely to play a significant role in electricity demand side management.
10 best new car deals of November 2021
Thu, Nov 4 2021Sales of new cars, trucks and SUVs were drastically affected in 2020 due to the (still) ongoing coronavirus pandemic. The market started to show signs of recovery toward the end of last year before really coming on strong in the early months of 2021. Of course, then pandemic-related parts and worker shortages along with global shipping constraints started running amok and causing a great deal of pricing fluctuation and a limited supply of certain vehicles. Those problems (among other things) have led to record-high new-car transaction prices in the United States. The good news is that there are still plenty of great deals on new cars. Using data provided by TrueCar, we’ve compiled a list of some of the best automotive deals for November 2021. WeÂ’ve noted the original MSRP, the average transaction price, and the total savings in both dollars and as a percentage of the original sticker price. Basically, weÂ’ve done all the hard work for you! So now, all you need to do is compare deals, go on a few test drives, and maybe drive away in a great car (and an even better bargain).
Top Gear drag races the BMW i8 and M4 to decide the future
Thu, Mar 24 2016The BMW M4 and i8 represent two every different expressions of the performance car. The M4 relies on its turbocharged six-cylinder combustion engine to spin the rear wheels. Conversely, the i8 packs a turbo three-cylinder and electric motors for its cutting-edge all-wheel drive system. Top Gear is the latest publication to put the pair together to find out which ethos is quicker. We saw Germany's Auto Bild hold a similar race last year, and the i8 scored a clear victory there. We don't want to spoil the winner of Top Gear's attempt, but we can tease that this sprint ends in a photo finish. Pick your favorite, and then watch the video to see which performance coupe takes the checkered flag. Related Video:
