More infos regarding my car at: isaiasiddrumheiser@cobblers.org .

The Quick Version:
1990 BMW M3 (E30)
Original Paint = BrilliantRot; Repainted HennaRot 1-year ago ($5000).
I've owned the car for the last 12-years
Original 2.3L S14 Engine
Original transmission (all gears shift smoothly!)
Recently had $5000 worth of engine maintenance done by certified BMW Mechanic
Setup with Ground Control Coil-Overs; Racing Dynamic Sway Bars and Strut Braces
Sparco Race Seats; Momo Race Wheel; UUC Short Shifter
4.10 Rear Diff
Lightened Flywheel + BMW "HD Clutch"
Resonator and Stainless exhaust
Rebuilt Dash Cluster; all gauges work!
Bolt-in Roll Bar / Half-Cage; Rear seat delete
All lights work; On-board Computer works; power windows & sunroof work
Discontinued SSR Wheels (17x7.5) with Toyo Rubber
Setup and maintained by certified BMW/Porsche mechanic for the last 10-years
Never Driven hard or raced, only taken out for the occasional "Track Day"
Always stored in a heated garage, always babied, never smoked in
NEVER in an accident / No body or frame repairs
This is a VERY clean example of a BMW E30 M3 with very minimal modifications; all of which were designed to improve
the driving experience. (reliability was ALWAYS the focus!)
This car would be a great candidate for a total restoration, OR as a dedicated track car.
Currently it's setup to be the best of both worlds as she corners COMPLETELY flat, yet is comfortable enough to
take my 70-year old mother for a drive.
The Long Version:
Ah- The E30 M3!
A car that you literally want to live in! Once you start driving you just want to keep going forever.
This particular car was setup to be reliable and drive as tight as possible while still being comfortable on
typical city roads.
Originally I had big plans to turn her into a replica, Group A BTCC track car, but had so many other projects
always going on that I never wanted to rip apart my beloved M3. As mentioned on Wikipedia & Top Gear (S03E02), this
is THE most successful road-going race car EVER!
Personally, I think it's a bit sad the current trend of meticulously restoring these cars and turning them into
museum pieces. The original S14 engine in this car needs to be heard at race tracks for generation after generation
so car enthusiasts never forget the sound of what many consider the best car ever built! The handling differences
between a stock M3 and one with a stiffer coil-over suspension / proper setup & damper adjustments is absolutely
NIGHT and DAY!
Suspension upgrades make this car handle completely flat through the turns while still being soft enough to take my
mom for rides. Remember: this is The Ultimate DRIVING Machine, not the Ultimate Original Condition Machine. Haha!
;-)
Completely clean chassis / CarFax / AutoCheck! No accidents or repairs! All maintenance was done with OEM parts by
the best BMW mechanic in WI. That includes:
- Main Seals,
- Main Bearings,
- Rebalanced Crankshaft
- New Rod Bearings, Cam Bearings
- New Slave Cylinder
- New Timing Chain, Timing Rail, and all other important bits.
Revs and runs like it's still 1989!!
Her name is Lily, but I'm sure she'd be OK with you renaming her ;-) I've had her for almost 15-years and it's been
an amazing journey, but now it's time to sell her and move onto the next chapter of life. It's important for me
that she goes to a good home; somebody who will drive her and baby her; not let her sit year after year.

The List: The Red BMW - A Retrospective

Mon, 23 Dec 2013

We can't help but use this time of year to look back at the days before and reminisce about friends who are no longer in our lives. For The List, Jessi and Patrick were often joined by a little, red BMW 3 Series that, at times, felt like a third host of the show. Having been bought used for just a thousand bucks, the red BMW proved to be surprisingly durable. Through jumps, dunks and monster trucks, it remained our little trooper 'till the very end, and on the way taught us all how important a faithful four-wheeled companion is to the life's work of completing one's automotive bucket list.
For our last episode of The List in 2013, we give you The Red BMW - A Retrospective.

2013 Nissan GT-R and 2013 Alpina B6 mix it up on track and street

Fri, 24 May 2013

Here we have Autocar making an unforeseen comparison: the Nissan GT-R against the Alpina B6 at Brands Hatch and on public roads. Steve Sutcliffe clobbers the circuit in the 3,828-pound, all-wheel-drive sports car, then sees how well the 4,114-pound, rear-wheel drive grand tourer does against it.
Sutcliffe says there are quite a few similarities between the two cars, but that's really only on the spec sheet. The Nissan's got two turbos attached to its 3.8-liter V6, 542 horsepower and 465 pound-feet of torque. The Alpina's got two turbos attached to its 4.4-liter V8, 532 hp and 528 lb-ft. But one's brief is to be a monster on the track, the other on the boulevard, and if there's anything the video demonstrates, it's each car's focus.

2015 BMW M4 Coupe ditches some doors, gains some grunt

Mon, 13 Jan 2014

If you saw our earlier post about the hot new BMW M3 Sedan and were about to call blasphemy for no coupe version, just settle down, silly. Remember: BMW now badges its two-door 3 Series models with the number four, and thus, meet the 2015 M4 Coupe. Looks hot, right?
So yeah, it's pretty much just the M3 with two less doors, but that doesn't make it any less important - or potent. Power comes from a turbocharged, 3.0-liter inline six-cylinder engine, sending 425 horsepower and 406 pound-feet of torque to the rear wheels via either a six-speed manual or seven-speed dual-clutch transmission. You know, the usual.
Not only is the M4 more powerful than the M3 Coupe it replaces, it's a good deal lighter, too. BMW has managed to cut 176 pounds of weight out of the M4, and that means, with the increased output numbers, that the M4 will scoot to 60 miles per hour in 3.9 seconds with the DCT or 4.1 seconds with the do-it-yourself tranny. Either way, that's not what we'd call slow.
