1997 Bmw Z3 Convertible Project - Just Needs Paint on 2040-parts.com
Petersburg, Michigan, US
This was my project car - scuff sanded the body after filling all nicks, but that was over a year ago, so it will need prepped again before paint. The car runs and drives great - 1.9 liter 4 cylinder and 5 speed transmission, miles are just under 140k. Maybe 1000 miles on a new clutch. The car has been sitting, so rust will need knocked off from the brakes, but other than that, nice little car. The wheels are pitted and a tire or two has a slow leak, but I have replacement tires if you want them (used). Everything is present to reassemble, minus the interior door panels (they were not given to me from my buddy when I received the car as payment on a loan). As it sits, the front support and radiator are out (they were removed as the engine was going to be pulled for the engine bay to be painted along with the rest of the car). Clean and clear Michigan you know what. A $500 deposit is due within 24 hours of offer acceptance. Remainder due within 7 days of offer acceptance. The car can sit on property for 30 days free of charge, after that, you will be responsible for $200 a month storage. Local pickup only -

80mph limit plans 'to be revisited'
Mon, 30 Sep 2013SHELVED PLANS to raise the motorway speed limit to 80mph will need to be revisited, a transport minister said as he declined to say whether he ever broke the current law to drive at that speed. Stephen Hammond said ministers were split on the move - which was unveiled with a fanfare by Philip Hammond in 2011 but then axed from the agenda by successors as transport secretary. Polling suggests a 10mph increase in the maximum allowed on the network would be extremely popular among motorists - and the transport minister recognised "a lot" already drove at the higher speed.
BMW ActiveHybrid 3 (2012 / 2013): New 3 Series Hybrid details revealed
Tue, 18 Oct 20112012 BMW ActiveHybrid 3 - on sale late 2012 BMW hasn’t had the most astonishing success with its hybrid offerings to date, but despite that, and following the reveal of the 2012 3 Series last week, they have announced details of the 3 Series hybrid – the BMW ActiveHybrid 3. Just like the recently revealed ActiveHybrid 5, the BMW Active Hybrid 3 will get a 302bhp twin-turbo six-pot (the same engine as the 335i) together with an electric motor which throws an additional 53bhp in to the mix. That should mean a 0-60mph of around 5.5 seconds (although BMW has given us no performance figures) and it will give 44mpg, exactly the same as the bigger ActiveHybrid 5 – and not exactly spectacular.
Possible Ferrari F70 tester spotted
Thu, 07 Jun 2012The above photos of what very well might be a development mule for the next primo Ferrari —likely to be called the F70—were recently posted on the Ferrari 4/5 Competizone Facebook page. The future F70 is expected to be a front-runner in the competition between the very best cost-no-object supercars. The F70 will feature a 7.3-liter V12 coupled to a kinetic-energy-recovery system, a combination that will be good for 920 hp.
