 I am selling my project because I simply don't have the space and time. I specifically purchased both of these vehicles to tailor a very cool car, one car is in mechanically good shape with thousands of dollars invested in the mechanics; about $4,000 in 2001 and an additional $1,700 in 2012. I have a video of the 1968 running on youtube which I am working on making visible. The vehicle has some rare parts including the rare shorty bumper and Euro lights and just those two parts would sell for close to $2,000 alone. The 1974 runs and is an automatic with a straight body and I was going to transfer the engine into the 1974 along with the exterior parts and make it a roundie. The 1974 has bilstin shocks and a nice interior. My intention which can be done by the purchaser is to finance the project by selling the parts you don't need such as the interior, dash, metal and so on. The 1974 will need its driver side base boards replaced but I have a contact in Colorado who has a complete undercarriage ready to sell for $500 that will fit the car. The 1974 apparently has less than 67,000 original miles but the undercarriage I would replace with the contact in Colorado who can take car of you. I have also found a rear roundie metal if you want to convert the 74 to make a roundie. The smart thing about this purchase is you can tailor the car you want and sell off the parts you don't need and it will turn into a rather inexpensive project because the parts are worth quite a bit, the automatic transmission for example would sell for $300 and the bumpers would sell for an additional $300 so you can see how the project can self fund itself and you could even purchase both cars to simply make a profit by parting them out and making a considerable amount more that the reserve price. The shipping will also be cheaper as you can get a great discount and getting both vehicles shipped which should cost you about $300-$400.

A few things to note: do not ask if I will sell one of the vehicles or ask if I am interested in selling a part. Also, please don't ask the reserve price.  I am only interested in selling both vehicles at once to one party. My reserve price is very reasonable and I could make quite a bit more if I had the time and space available. The 68 runs very well and would look great if the cover was replaced for about $70 but other than that the motor runs well and so does the transmission on both cars. The wheels on the 1974 are very sharp and would look great if they are cleaned up a bit and the headliner and interior is in pretty good shape. I don't really need to explain what you can do and how much money you can make if you are the type of buyer who would buy these cars, you already know what you have in mind but feel free to give me any questions.

Thanks and good luck

 In addition, the 68 has a trunk full of parts. I am going to throw in likely several hundred dollars worth of parts. I have new belts, rubberized stripping for the doors, brand new set of spark plugs, I have shocks, I even have some parts that are still in plastic, brand new blue coil from a MSD Package...I have owned several 2002 's and one had performance parts so they are not related but I have some Dual Spark Package Parts. Performance Spark Plug Wire Set, Extra Distributor, Brand New Battery, Brand New Battery Harness, there are extra moldings (you can see how the 68 does not have the metal strap but most of it is in the trunk and there are parts missing on the 74 but there should be more than enough to work with. The tires are also in pretty good shape. There are 6 X 9 speakers, an amp, the AC Unit has shocked lots of people. I have been told it can be easily fixed (however I did not look into it). Whoever buys this is probably going to feel like I am a fool but honestly, I don't care, I just don't have the time, I am running a business right now and I just don't have he time to deal with all this stuff but I would not be surprised if you could milk $15,000 + out of this. The AC Central Console is in good shape and sturdy which is important if you are going to work with it to put some gauges in there. Even the dash on the 74 isn't so bad, its actually in pretty good shape and has the standard one crack and a hairline crack. The 68 interior itself, if restored could be sold for a considerable amount of money. That 68 is a gold mine if you know what you are doing simply because people looking for 68 original parts are going to be after them and my whole plan was to restore as many of those parts and sell them to finance the project. The speedometer is fine in the 74 but it is not working in the 68 but the other gauges are working and the lights are fine. I am trying to think of as much stuff as I can. I am still trying to get the Youtube Video of me driving around the 68 so you can hear the engine and the car shifting. As soon as I can figure out how to get the video from my phone to youtube I will post it.

BMW 2 Series Coupe priced from $33,025* ahead of Detroit debut

Fri, 13 Dec 2013

BMW is definitely going to have its hands full at next month's Detroit Auto Show. The big news might be the debut of the M3 and M4, which were previewed in our Deep Dive, but joining those performance cars under the bright lights will be the all-new 2015 BMW 2 Series Coupe.
While we already know most of the details about the 2 Series and its available M Performance parts, BMW has now announced that the Coupe will go on sale in the first quarter of next year with a starting price of $33,025 (*plus $925 for destination) for the base 228i. This price is about $1,500 more than the current 1 Series Coupe, which starts at $31,500, while the M235i's starting price of $44,025 is almost $500 more than the existing 135is Coupe. There is still no indication as to when we'll see 2 Series Convertible unveiled.
In addition to new M cars and the 2 Series, BMW's display will also reveal another new color-theme package for the Z4. Last year we saw the Hyper Orange package, and this year will give us the Ivory White Burnt Sienna Z4 available in an exclusive Sparkling Brown Metallic exterior paint color. Scroll down for the full press release of production vehicles BMW has planned to showcase at Detroit's Cobo Hall next month.

Honda scores big in Automobile Advertising of the Year Awards [w/videos]

Wed, 15 Jan 2014

This year the Detroit Auto Show didn't just celebrate the automobile, it celebrated how we find out about the automobile, too. Partnering The One Club, this year introduced the 2014 One Show Automobile Advertising of the Year Award to Cobo Hall, celebrating winners in five different categories of advertising: broadcast television, online, interactive, experiential, and print/outdoor. Winners in those categories were judged by 50 creative directors and journalists, while a Public Choice category was chosen from among nearly 20,000 online votes.
Honda walked off with three of the six awards, its Hands spot taking Broadcast honors, its Sound of Honda getting the Online category and Illusions winning Public Choice. Hyundai made the grade in Interactive with Driveway Decision Maker, Fiat captured Print/Outdoor with its "Letters" ad, and Toyota's Tundra Endeavor Campaign spot and BMW's A Window into the Near Future were co-winners for Experiential.
You can watch all of the press release and winning videos below or check out all of the finalists, announced last month, for a refresher.

Hyundai poaches another BMW M exec to run high-performance N division

Fri, Mar 2 2018

Hyundai has poached a third executive for its N high-performance division from the ranks of BMW's M department. Thomas Schemera, a 31-year BMW veteran, will head the High Performance Vehicle & Motorsport Division that Hyundai just inaugurated on March 1. Schemera's job will be to "oversee strategy, product planning, sales and marketing for the new division." He will make the most of the transfer from Hyundai Motorsport to the road cars developed by the N division, and work to boost the brand. Schemera has the same boss at N that he did at M: Albert Biermann, the first M exec Hyundai snagged in 2015. After Biermann came Fayez Abdul Rahman, installed at the Genesis brand, who had previously developed platforms for the BMW 7 Series, X models, and M vehicles. Rahman spent the last phase of his BMW tenure in charge of M Equipment, M Sport Packages, and BMW Individual. Although he's undoubtedly busy with his VP job in charge of Genesis architecture development, we hear Hyundai plans to develop some kind of "N Sport" appearance and performance items for release later this year — a middle step in the same vein as M Sport and Audi S-line — and Rahman could certainly help. Schemera brings proven chops when it comes to moving standard and specialty hi-po offerings; as VP in charge of sales and dealer development in China, Schemera oversaw a four-fold increase in BMW and M sales in the four years from 2005-2008. He ended his run as head of BMW M and BMW Individual in the Americas. Although there's but one N product for sale now, the slate is full, and Hyundai looks ready to spend the time and money to seize every opportunity. BMW on the other hand, might soon turn into that tormented significant other regarding its M personnel: "So ... why did you let Hyundai like your Instagram post? Do you like Hyundai? Do you follow them back?!"
