Bmw E30 M-technic S14 Convertible E30 M3 Conversion White Package on 2040-cars
Suwanee, Georgia, United States
This is one of my pride and joys since 1997 when I brought it. This is a rare 1992 e30 325ic M-Technic white package 5 spd car. I am the 3rd owner. Car has never seen snow or salt, always been a California and then Georgia car. NO rust at all. I brought the car from the BMW dealer in 1997 ( I still have the sale flyer) and have been the owner since. In 2008, I converted the car to full E30 M3 spec. It has a S14-4 cylinder engine, S14 5 spd transmission, M3 drive shaft and guibo, M3 shifter, M3 brake system, M3 5 bolt hubs and wheel bearings, e30 M3 struts/Bilstein sport shocks/H&R springs. The S14 has been converted to MAF metering from Split Second, It dramatically made much more torque and more h.p. So why did I replace the M20 6 cylinder engine with a S14 4 cylinder engine: because this is a E30, my other BMW is a 1991 e30 M3 coupe so this made a great companion to that car, and I had all this spare e30 M3 parts to put into this car. So I made this a full e30 M3 spec except for the body. Why didn’t I do a M3 body kit: because I didn’t want to make a e30 M3 cabrio replica exactly like the factory. I have been into E30 M3 since 1991 so I am VERY familiar with E30s and E30 M3s. If you ask around the E30 m3 community, most people know who I am. By starting with the white package M-Technic car, this is also a rare find. The interior was redone in OEM BMW ///M cloth- very rare and expensive as I had to source this fabric from BMW Germany. The steering wheel is very rare from a BMW Z1. You will never find another e30 with this steering wheel. The cluster is from e30 M3 except for the speedometer which is still 325i. Radio is a CD43 in dash CD player from a Z3. There are so many upgrades I have done to this car, some small, some big, some underneath the car, some on the exterior. See all the pictures at my web site. Little details like M-Technic door sills, M-technic badges, M3 EVO 3 hood seals. Samco silicone coolant hoses, real BMW accessory-center console armrest/cup holder, E30 wind deflector, under chassis X stiffener brace..….. The bad stuff: The electric top is now manual as the main rod is bent- I do have a new rod that will go with the car. The top itself is in decent shape, no holes on the fabric- I do clean and treat it every 6 months with special top cleaner and spray. The rear plastic window does have 2 cracks but it is pretty clear as I use plastic polish to keep it clear every year. I am including a brand new top with rear window with the sale of the car. During the previous owner, the left quarter panel has been replaced with factory BMW panel. Paint and fit is perfectly matched with the rest of the car. The car has some scratches here and there. See the pictures on the link below. The BBS RS wheels have all been restored by Metro wheels. ALL 6 wheels were taken apart and each piece polished or painted and re-assembled. All 6 wheels have Khumo tires 225-45-16 tires in decent shape. 2 of the 6 wheels did hit a curb so it has curb rash on the outer rim. I am also including a 7th BBS RS wheel that is un-restored. So you will have 7 BBS RS wheels!!! The gas gauge is not accurate, engine oil leak @ chain tensioner, missing left front brake cooling duct

BMW preparing two concepts for Villa d'Este
Thu, 20 Mar 2014Every spring, the finest automobiles ever to grace tarmac gather on the shores of Lake Como for the Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este. It's a chance for the most beautiful classics to compete for awards and for automakers and design studios to show off their concept cars under the soft light of the Italian sun. But while most of the vehicles old and new that show up for the concours are ones we've seen before, BMW takes things a step further.
As patron of the concorso d'eleganza for the past ten years, BMW regularly cooks up something new for the glamorous extravaganza. Last year it teamed up with Pininfarina for the Gran Lusso Coupé and revealed it alongside the Concept 90 motorcycle. The year before that came the BMW Zagato Coupe, preceded by the 328 Hommage and the M1 Hommage (pictured above) before it.
The theme for this year's event is the Roaring Twenties. BMW may not have been known back then on the same level as Bugatti or Duesenberg, but Rolls-Royce sure was.
BMW broadens engine bolt recall to nearly half-million cars worldwide
Fri, 11 Apr 2014Almost one month ago, we reported on a BMW investigation into a potentially defective bolt that lived in the company's VANOS variable valve timing system. At that point, the potential recall was seemingly limited to Chinese-market cars; the company was filing a recall application with Chinese officials.
Today, Bloomberg is reporting that the engine bolt issue has expanded into a recall for several world markets, involving some 489,000 vehicles. BMW was able to verify that report to Autoblog, while also providing a great deal more detail about the issue and vehicles affected.
The recall affects vehicles powered by N55 inline six-cylinder gasoline engines equipped with VANOS and Valvetronic technologies. 1 Series, 3 Series, 5 Series and 5 Series Gran Turismo, X3, X5, X6 and Z4 models from the 2010 to 2012 model years are included, as is the 2012 6 Series.
Playboy reveals its 2013 Cars of the Year
Thu, 20 Dec 2012Vaunted men's magazine Playboy knows that its readers are nearly as interested in cars as they are in the female anatomy... sorry, we thought we could write that with a straight face. Anyway, the buff-book does occasionally fill some of its spreads with sexy metal, to accent all the rest of the sexiness.
To wit, the magazine has unveiled its feature on the 2013 Cars of the Year. Without giving us much in the way of criteria for the awards, nor a clear framing of the categories ("Responsible Ride" is a particularly challenging concept, especially when you consider that the Mazdaspeed3 was the winner), Playboy has nevertheless highlighted what we assume to be it's favorite 12 or 13 (depending on how you count) cars from the 2013 model year.
Headlining the class is the Porsche 911, which Playboy writers single out for having "remarkable electronic voodoo." BMW M5 is named "Slickest Sports Sedan" though the Cadillac ATS then follows on because "we couldn't resist giving the new Caddy a shout-out." The rest of the picks are pretty conventional (save, perhaps, the Honda Fit EV as "Ace Electric"), even if the categories and methodology are fairly wonky. Cruise through or gallery for a taste or check out the full list, here. The site is safe for work, and you can legitimately (this time) say that you were reading it for the articles.
