2001 Bmw Z3 Roadster Convertible 2-door 3.0l on 2040-cars
Dresden, Maine, United States
Condition: New paint on front bonnet. Had minor damage which has been repaired to driver's side engine vent area. I took the opportunity to repaint the entire hood and it came out sparkling. This is a very good looking car which gets lots of attention, especially since it looks like the same one used in the James Bond film that made it so famous. The DSC (dynamic stability control) does not seem to have any effect when driving, so it may not engage. Power windows are in need of lubrication maintenance and go up and down with a little manual assistance now. Power assist on the convertible top motor is not working and has not worked since I bought the car 6 years ago. The roof is not heavy so there is no reason to use a motor to put the roof up or down. The boot cover was also missing when I purchased the car. You can buy them for about $200. There is minor damage to the passenger seat leather where the seam separated at the cushion corner near the door, about three inches, currently covered with a strip of black tape. The leather looks like faux ostrich to me, but I am not sure. The trim molding has a small two inch split near the windshield in the very center. Near the side glass the dash material has come unglued slightly due to the heat. Neither of these things are very noticeable. The stereo is not original, and the subwoofer has been replaced in the center console, as these often wear out. The tires are in good shape, but have been used one season. This car has always been covered, stored and well-cared for. |

Watch a trio of Santas ride up Mulholland Drive
Wed, 25 Dec 2013Santa Claus might have his eight reindeer - or nine, when it's foggy - to help him deliver presents in most parts of the world, but in southern California, it looks like he's traded up from Dasher, Dancer, Prancer and company to BMW, Yamaha and Ducati. RNickeyMouse is usually the place to check out spectacular motorcycle crashes on video along LA's Mulholland Drive, but a recent video caught a trio of Santas carving up the iconic, twisty road.
The three Santas are together, riding what appears to be a BMW S1000RR, Yamaha R1 and a hard-to-tell custom bike that could be a Ducati 1098. The video, which is posted below, also catches a bonus Santa riding solo on another S1000RR. Happy Christmas to all, and to all a cool bike!
BMW could add all-electric Mini, X3 SUV
Tue, Oct 4 2016BMW's Mini sub-brand will add a battery-electric variant as the company looks to meet stricter emissions mandates around the world, according to an interview Bloomberg News conducted with CEO Harald Krueger. BMW is also planning an all-electric version of its X3 SUV and may start greening up models as large as its 7 Series sedan, though that prospect is far cloudier. The all-electric Mini will be available to the public as soon as 2019, while the battery-electric X3 SUV will likely start sales the following year. BMW didn't offer specifics about how much those models would cost or far they will be able to travel on a full electric charge, with Krueger only saying single-charge ranges would be "competitive" with other all-electric models. BMW this summer upgraded the battery in its i3 electric vehicle and boosted its single-charge range by about 40 percent to 114 miles. As for demand for BMW's i sub-brand vehicles, US sales of the i3 through September fell 27 percent to almost 5,800 vehicles, while sales of the i8 plug-in hybrid are down 19 percent to about 1,100 units, BMW said on Monday. Meanwhile, word got out earlier this year that BMW may dedicate the Rocketman concept hatchback as Mini's entrant to the electric-vehicle sector. BMW actually used a Mini as its first electric testing vehicle. The Mini E was produced in 2009 and 2010 before giving way to the BMW ActiveE, which was actually a converted 1-Series vehicle. Eventually, BMW started producing the i3. Related Video: Featured Gallery Mini Rocketman Concept View 25 Photos News Source: Bloomberg News Green BMW MINI SUV Electric
