The overall condition of this M3 is super nice inside and out! This car has been properly cared for and well maintained since it was new by a fellow BMW CCA club member. This car has always been serviced and was in fact a former BMW CPO car. Everything is up to date including the inspection II, the wheels and tires have been replaced, brakes and rotors have plenty of life on them, as they were recently replaced, and most importantly all the dealer recommended inspections have been completed on time when they were due. 

Please note that this is not your typical 01' E46 M3, I was in search of this car for over a year, my last E46 M3 was an SMG 04' with 50k, but  I really wanted to purchase a 6 spd manual. As i started searching I started running into the same issue over and over again of most of the cars were beat and abused, many were tracked and many owned by younger individuals, which made them rougher cars in general. The main thing that attracted me was that i was purchasing from someone i knew.

Most of these cars due to the age they have a very limited amount of information available in regards to how they have been taken care of and how it was driven. This car has always waxed, garage kept, never driven in chicago winters. 
I really don't want to part with the car but recently I had the opportunity to be able to purchase an EVO E30 M3 and I need to make room in my garage. 

Please note this car is in great condition but being a used car please have realistic expectations. Exterior condition I would rate a 9/10 only flaws are some some rock chips in the front bumper clear bra, always minor ding in front passenger fender, and very minor scratch on rear deck-lid, the front clear bra also shows wear due to its age but it has done phenomenal job of protecting the car. Tires id say they have plenty of tread left they were only put on a few months ago, rims are brand new as well, there are no rock chips on the hood, rear bumper is in excellent shape.  To my knowledge this car has absolutely no paint work. You must come see this car to really appreciate it.  Feel free to schedule a time to come by my office and check out the car, i'd love to show it to any serious buyers, please do any inspections, or test drives prior to purchasing the car.
 
This is a true enthusiast owned M3, I am part of BMW CCA, Bimmerforums, M3forums.net, and all the other clubs.

FAQ: Has the Rod bearing recall been performed? Yes, 16,000 miles

Volvo S90 Recharge, Lexus RX 350 and spring beer picks | Autoblog Podcast #679

Fri, May 21 2021

In this episode of the Autoblog Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by Consumer Editor Jeremy Korzeniewski. They start off discussing the Volvo S90 Recharge and wonder out loud why the brand's plug-in technology isn't also offered with a wagon body style. They then discuss the Lexus RX350 and why it's likely an ideal premium crossover for a large percentage of buyers. From there, Greg and Jeremy cover some recent news items, including the current state of BMW's coupes and rumors that Toyota's next Land Cruiser will lose its V8 engine in favor of a turbocharged V6. Then it's time to go over some of our current favorite spring beers before turning to the mailbag and spending some listener's money.

BMW recalls 6,073 units of i3 and Minis to replace airbag

Tue, Oct 20 2015

BMW is replacing the passenger's side front airbag module on 6,073 vehicles in the US because of a supplier's manufacturing issue with the part. The affected models include the: 2014-2015 i3; 2014-2016 Mini Hardtop 2 Door Cooper and Cooper S; 2015-2016 Hardtop 2 Door John Cooper Works; and 2015-2016 Hardtop 4 Door Cooper and Cooper S. Because the airbag components aren't made correctly, they might not deploy with enough restraint in a low-speed collision. BMW isn't aware of any accidents or injuries from the problem, but this is still obviously a safety concern. According to company spokesperson David Buchko to Autoblog, customers will be notified about the issue by mail in November. As always, dealers will perform the replacements at no cost to owners. Related Video: RECALL Subject : Passenger Frontal Air Bag May not Deploy Properly Report Receipt Date: OCT 07, 2015 NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V628000 Component(s): AIR BAGS Potential Number of Units Affected: 6,073 All Products Associated with this Recall Vehicle Make Model Model Year(s) BMW I3 2014-2015 MINI COOPER 2014-2016 MINI COOPER S 2014-2016 MINI JOHN COOPER WORKS 2015-2016 Details Manufacturer: BMW of North America, LLC SUMMARY: BMW of North America, LLC (BMW) is recalling certain model year 2014-2016 MINI Cooper S and MINI Cooper two-door vehicles, 2015-2016 MINI John Cooper Works and MINI Cooper S and MINI Cooper four-door vehicles and 2014-2015 BMW i3 vehicles. Due to a manufacturing error, the passenger frontal air bag may not deploy properly in a low speed crash. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 208, "Occupant Crash Protection." CONSEQUENCE: In the event of a vehicle crash, an air bag that does not deploy properly increases the risk of injury to the front seat passenger. REMEDY: MINI and BMW will notify owners, and dealers will replace the passenger frontal air bag module, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin on November 20, 2015. Owners may contact MINI customer service at 1-866-825-1525 and BMW customer service at 1-800-525-7417. NOTES: Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov. BMW Statement: BMW has informed NHTSA of its intention to voluntarily recall approximately 923 BMW i3 vehicles to replace the passenger-side front airbag module.

BMW 1 Series sedan prepares to fight Mercedes CLA, Audi A3

Thu, 04 Sep 2014

The entry-level premium sedan segment is pretty hot right now, with the Audi A3 and Mercedes-Benz CLA-Class doing well for their respective automakers here in the US. Of course, BMW has its 2 Series, but that's currently only available as a coupe, with a convertible bodystyle forthcoming. That all looks to change, however, as our spies recently caught BMW testing a four-door 1 Series sedan that seems to have the A3 and CLA clear in its sight.
BMW's entry-level four-door is expected to ride on the same front-wheel-drive UKL platform that we recently spied in Mini Countryman form. We're pretty sure this thing will launch under the 1 Series line (odds for sedans and wagons, evens for coupes and convertibles), but it's anyone's guess with BMW - after all, the five-door, front-drive Active Tourer wears a 2 Series nameplate.
Look for the 1 Series sedan to launch sometime in 2016 as a 2017 model. Better late than never in the entry-lux segment, we suppose.
