So I’m not going to dwell into the history of M Motorsport or why the M3 is a worthy investment. I figure if you’re looking at this ad you pretty much know what the car is and why you should buy it. Let’s address what I believe to be problem areas with my car.

The CON’s:
- Temperamental sunroof.
- Coffee stain on carpet behind driver’s seat.
- Alignment.
- 3 minor dings on hood.
- 1 paint chip on front right fender.
- Scratches on front bumper and 5" scuff to the left rear bumper.*
- Weathered rear spoiler, paint cracking.*
- Missing 1” tow hook cover, (Purchased replacement cover needs only repainting.)*
- Aged front original seats, worn not torn.
- 136,837 miles on original motor.
- Aftermarket Alpine radio.
- Aftermarket Nardi steering wheel.
- Aftermarket AC Schnitzer pedals.
- Irritating young photographers if you don’t like the attention.

*- can have bumpers, rear spoiler, and replacement tow hook cover repainted for additional $900. I left them unpainted so as not to deceive the new buyer.

The PRO’s:
- California Car from Day 1.
- Clean title.
- No Rust.
- Smogged and Registered.
- Bonafide 1990 M3. Factory 212hp. The last of the E30 M3's sold in the state of California. 91’s never brought into CA.

- Chassis straight.
- No accidents.
- Original matching VIN stickers to the left and right doors, left and right fenders, hood, and rear trunk all intact and documented.

Ebay might prohibit links to the video and photos but feel free to contact me at Cal90M3@gmail.com with any other photo and I can arrange for you.

Please do not:
1. Bid on this vehicle if you first need to sell your old car to then transfer funds to pay for this one (reason why I am forced to re-list this vehicle)
2. Ask me what the buy it now price to have me take the vehicle off of this auction. I've received offers higher than my asking and if the auction ends with a price below what I've been offered, I am completely happy with that. I just want everyone to have a fair chance bidding this vehicle. For this exact reason I am not setting a reserve on the vehicle.
3. Ask me to accept a deposit or trade for your vehicle.
4. Expect me to release the vehicle before full payment.
5. Ask me to drive 50 miles away for you to test drive.

Thank you for viewing and bid with confidence.

BMW 2 Series caught uncovered during shoot

Thu, 16 May 2013

Before we know it, the BMW 1 Series will be no more in the United States. Well, sort of. The current six-year-old coupe and convertible will be replaced by the fancy new 2 Series you see here, spotted completely uncovered during a photo shoot, with the 1 Series nomenclature being reserved for the hatchback and GT models that might not ever make it Stateside.
The roofline of the new 2 Series doesn't appear to have to changed all that much from the current 1 Series coupe, but the front and rear fascias have indeed been smoothed out. (Truth time: As much as your author adores the 1 Series, he's always found its rear end to be, well, weird.) It looks good, seen here in M235i guise, with large wheels, slimmer headlamps and large air intakes on either side of the front fascia.
The 2 Series is expected to come to the States, likely in M235i and 228i variants, though rumors suggest that we won't get a non-M 235i model. The M235i is expected to be powered by the N55 turbocharged inline-six that we currently enjoy in the 335i sedan, producing something like 320 horsepower. The 228i, unsurprisingly, should use the 2.0-liter turbo-four from the 328i, making around 240 hp. Both engines will almost certainly employ eight-speed automatic transmissions and six-speed manuals.

10 best new car deals of November 2021

Thu, Nov 4 2021

Sales 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).

Giles Taylor succeeds Ian Cameron as head of Rolls-Royce design

Thu, 28 Jun 2012

Back in the day, a Rolls-Royce looked pretty much the same as a Bentley, but with a different grille. Once BMW took over Rolls-Royce, however, it was faced with the challenge of visually separating itself from its former sister brand. And most would agree that it did so pretty well. But its cars have looked pretty much the same ever since. What Rolls-Royce needs, then, is a bit of a design shake-up. And that's just what this latest appointment could bring.
After a baker's dozen years as design director at Rolls-Royce (and twenty years designing for the BMW Group altogether), Ian Cameron is retiring from his post. In his place, Rolls-Royce has named Giles Taylor as its new director of design. In his new capacity, Taylor will report directly to BMW Group chief designer Adrian van Hooydonk, and be responsible for all design matters related to the Rolls-Royce brand and its products.
Taylor was promoted to the role from his previous position as head of exterior design for the marque, a position he's held for barely more than a year. We'll be eagerly watching to see what the veteran British car designer has in store for the future of Rolls-Royce. In the meantime you can read the full announcement below.
