Estoril Blue BMW M3 for sale. Keeping a car in D.C. has become too inconvenient, so here it goes.

Car has been well-maintained since purchase. Regular oil changes only using synthetic oil, all repairs done properly, and all wear-and-tear parts replaced with OEM or parts of higher quality (e.g. all-aluminum radiator fittings to replace the worn plastic ones). Every known common mechanical failure for E36 M3's has been addressed and replaced with a part of better quality (e.g. replacing plastic parts with metal ones.

It has been used as a daily driver since it was bought in 1999, and has been very reliable since. It has been on long road trips, and never left me stranded. Car was never smoked in, and the sedans are rare. They are also lighter than the coupes.

Lots of performance work--to get this work on a stock M3 would cost well over $4,000.

Upgrades include:

Zionsville high capacity aluminum radiator

E46 M3 front rotors (cast with cooling holes)

Forged Porsche/Brembo 911 calipers (last generation 911)

Euro-style front headlights (glass covers instead of plastic)

Composite Hood (professionally painted factory Estorial Blue)

Rear diff brace

H&R Progressive Rate springs (small lower, ~.5”)

Billstein shocks

Front & Rear aluminum tower braces

Custom Volk wheels (including full-size spare)

Schrick cams

CAI

COMFORTI ECU

Re-upholstered front seats (done with leather)

New Bridgestone rear tires

M50 intake mainifold

New radio (AUX input, CD changer, AM/FM)

Front under-panel

Ball-bearing short-throw shifter

There are some problems with the car: damage to front bumper (from wheel dipping into pothole; visible in the pictures); starter motor works better when the car is cold; A/C compressor is disconnected (A/C still works; compressor clutch just needs replacement).

Buyer is responsible for pickup or shipping.

$1000 deposit is due within 48 hours of auction's end and full payment within 72 hours.

BMW's DriveNow car sharing shutting down in SF next month

Tue, Oct 6 2015

BMW's DriveNow car-sharing service is suspending operations in San Francisco next month after more than three years. The culprit? Not enough parking spots in the City. BMW debuted both DriveNow car-sharing and its ParkNow service in the City by the Bay in August 2012, initially launching with the ActiveE plug-in vehicle and later moving over to the i3. While there probably wasn't a shortage of folks looking to drive those cars, it was the ending part of that equation that proved problematic. That's because San Francisco hasn't been able to clear out enough street-parking spots to make the program work properly, despite adding 80 spaces for the 150 cars in the program back in 2014. "We hope to return to San Francisco in the future and will continue to engage with the City on possible solutions that will allow you to experience the full benefits of our one-way car sharing service," said DriveNow CEO Richard Sternberg on the company's website. "In the meantime, we are focusing our efforts on new cities where our transportation solution can flourish. We would like to thank you for your loyal support and embracing flexible car sharing as an alternative transportation method." As far as that expansion to other US cities, BMW hasn't been specific. Bimmer also runs the DriveNow program in three Germany cities as well as Copenhagen, Vienna and London. So, DriveNow apparently has an easier time finding parking spots in London than in San Francisco. Why BMW couldn't use a flexible parking system for its one-way rentals like the similar Car2go program uses remains a mystery.

Recharge Wrap-up: Portland's Electric Avenue, hacking a Tesla

Sat, Aug 15 2015

Portland, Oregon has opened a city block set aside for electric vehicles. Dubbed "Electric Avenue," the EV-only zone replaces one that was taken over by new construction. The new Electric Avenue is an improvement, though, with four universal, 50-kW fast chargers and two Level 2 chargers. Currently, charging is free when customers pay for the metered parking. Portland's original Electric Avenue became a gathering place for EV drivers and an opportunity for companies to test charging technology. Read more at Ecomento. Hackers Kevin Mahaffey and Marc Rogers discussed hacking a Tesla Model S at the Def Con hacking conference. They outlined the car's vulnerabilities, particularly regarding the central information display, instrument cluster and the gateway. The hackers were able to exert control over certain subsystems, but they also pointed out some of the ways in which the car is protected from outside manipulation. Among other things, they were able to turn the car on and off, lock and unlock the doors, control the brakes under five mph, and shift the car into neutral above five mph. Tesla, who was also on hand for the presentation, has patched many of the vulnerabilities. Read more at Tom's Hardware. The BMW i3 is now available through DriveNow in Copenhagen, Denmark. After the carsharing program's success with the electric car in Germany, the UK and US, BMW (which owns DriveNow along with car rental company Sixt) has created a fleet of 400 i3 EVs in the Danish capital. With the help of bus operator Arriva, the BMW fleet is interconnected with public transportation. "Here in Copenhagen we are now already witnessing mobility of the future," says BMW's Dr. Bernhard Blattel. "It is on-demand technology, interconnected, quiet and electric." Read more in the press release below. Four hundred BMW i3 for interconnected mobility in Copenhagen. BMW i supports the improvement of life-quality in cities; Electric car sharing as the key component; DriveNow with the BMW i3 shortly also in Copenhagen, directly interconnected with public transport. Copenhagen. Following the successful introduction of the BMW i3 to the DriveNow fleets in Germany, the UK and the USA, the next major step is being taken with the commissioning of 400 BMW i3 in Copenhagen on September 3rd 2015. What is new here is an all-electric fleet which is also interconnected with public transport.
