The original owner was located in Kingston TN. I have driven this car up until a couple of months ago when it quit unexpectedly on the interstate. AAA towed it to my long-time mechanic where it is currently residing. We suspect a fuse needs to be replaced or the gas filter, but cannot confirm. It has been housed in my garage until a couple of months ago. Some things you should know about this car: In 1994 the car was repainted and chrome moldings were replaced; the odometer does not work (last reading was 241,648 miles); there is a small dent in the hood which occurred when my house was being reroofed and the car was sitting in the garage; there are a few minor scraps on the paint; red leather Recaro seats; the radio has been replaced; the cracked dash has been covered with a plastic molded dashboard cover; tear in the driver's seat (shown); manuals and service records available. See below."

I purchased this car in 1992 from Thoroughbred Motorcars in Nashville TN. I am the second owner. The original owner was located in Kingston TN. I have driven this car up until a couple of months ago when it quit unexpectedly on the interstate. AAA towed it to my long-time mechanic where it is currently residing. We suspect a fuse needs to be replaced or the gas filter, but cannot confirm. Not going to figure out what's happened, so just selling it. It has been housed in my garage until a couple of months ago. Some things you should know about this car: In 1994 the car was repainted, chrome moldings, and bumpers were replaced; the odometer does not work (last reading was 241,648 miles); there is a small dent in the hood which occurred when my house was being reroofed and the car was sitting in the garage; there are a few minor scraps on the paint; red leather Recaro seats; the radio has been replaced; the cracked dash has been covered with a plastic molded dashboard cover; tear in the leather on driver's seat (shown); AC system upgraded in 2002 to accept R134; manuals and service records available.


This is a classic 1987 BMW 535is manual 5-speed rocket. It has been our "baby" since 1992 and we hate to sell it. But it needs attention and we'd like to send it to a good home. Mostly kept in the garage and smoke free.

Thanks for looking and let me know if you have any questions.

BMW working on 2 Series Active Hybrid Tourer

Wed, 14 May 2014

The cover may have officially been pulled off the BMW 2 Series Active Tourer at the Geneva Motor Show, but BMW has apparently continued working on other variants behind closed doors. While at first glance this prototype looks like any other Active Tourer, the "Hybrid Test Vehicle" stickers on the passenger door and rear bumper give it away as something a little different.
Details about the hybrid Active Tourer are somewhat sketchy at the moment, but BMW indicated its likely direction for the electrified hatchback in the earlier Concept Active Tourer. It used a hybridized 1.5-liter turbocharged three-cylinder engine coupled with an electric motor with a total system output of 190 horsepower and 147 pound-feet of torque. The company claimed that it had a roughly 19-mile electric range and could hit 62 miles per hour in under 8 seconds. However, the Bavarian automaker hasn't said yet whether this powertrain would be used in the production version.
The internal combustion 2 Series Active Tourer is rumored to come to the US in 2015. Given the nearly complete look of the test car, the hybrid might not be too far behind.

Next BMW 6 Series, M6 to take aim at Porsche

Tue, Dec 2 2014

Since BMW reintroduced the 6 Series line back in 2003, the big two-door has happily sat as the brand's de facto grand tourer. That will allegedly change come 2017, as Car is reporting that Munich will put its coupe on a diet with the so-called G15 generation, allowing the 6 to go after the likes of Porsche. All three of the current 6's body styles will be carried over for 2017, with the base 640i Coupe trimming over 500 pounds of body fat, to around 3,450 pounds. Even the droptop is getting some lipo, dropping from 4,255 to around 3,750 pounds. It's unclear how much the Gran Coupe will be lightened, as it will be the only member of the 6 Series family that's growing in size. BMW will stretch the wheelbase of its fullsize, four-door coupe, which should make it decidedly more sedan like. The weight savings come thanks to a new modular architecture that promises a "more advanced material mix." That means carbon fiber, high-strength steel and aluminum elements, and even some titanium and magnesium bits. Along with xDrive all-wheel drive, Car is promising new six- and eight-cylinder engines, with the 640i's 3.0-liter, turbocharged gas engine producing 347 horsepower while the diesel mill turns out 333. The 4.4-liter V8 of the 650i will deliver 476 ponies, while the range-topping M6's twin-turbo V8 will reach the magical 600-hp figure. Of course, we can expect to hear more about the next 6 in the coming months and years. In the meantime, though, let us know what you think of Car's positing below, in Comments.

Orlando Bloom gets custom BMW S 1000 R by Deus Ex Machina

Tue, May 19 2015

Gearheads can meet in the most unlikely of places. Take Orlando Bloom and Michael "Woolie" Woolaway. One was starring in a film where the other was working as a gaffer – we'll let you figure out which was which – and a friendship was kindled over their love for motorcycles. As it turns out, Bloom is a bit of a BMW bike enthusiast, and Woolie is the head of the famous Deus Ex Machina custom shop in Venice. The pair teamed up to create a custom four-cylinder Bimmer bike for Bloom based on the S 1000 R, and took it into the Malibu Hills for its first shakedown. Considering the Hollywood setting where they met, it should come as little surprise that they brought a film crew along to artfully document the experience, which you can watch in the four-minute clip above. BMW Motorrad and Orlando Bloom present the BMW S 1000 R Custom. Michael "Woolie" Woolaway from Deus Ex Machina turns Orlando Bloom's vision of a custom bike into reality. Munich/Los Angeles. Everyone knows Orlando Bloom as a successful actor, but not everyone knows about his passion for motorbikes. As a long-standing fan of BMW motorcycles, Orlando Bloom owns and rides a number of BMW models, including old classics. For his own custom bike project he specifically chose the BMW S 1000 R. He asked his good friend, Michael "Woolie" Woolaway, head of the Deus Ex Machina custom shop in Venice, CA, USA, to work with him to bring his custom S 1000 R vision into reality. The result of the cooperation, is a stunning one-off 4 cylinder bike. The S 1000 R Custom and Orlando Bloom had their first test ride in the Malibu Hills while shooting "4CYL", a production by Arthur de Kersauson and Clement Beauvais in cooperation with BMW Motorrad.
