1988 Bmw 535is (e28) Black - Manual 5 Spd - Sedan 4-door 3.5l - No Reserve on 2040-cars
For sale is a 1988 BMW 535is, that I have owned since 2004. It is a blast to drive and has that old rough and tumble BMW feel.
Are you looking for a fun project? Want to own a classic, that is fun to drive and work on? This is the car for you! The interior looks great, but the exterior needs TLC (paint and dents / dings). My priorities have changed, so I don't have time to finish up the exterior work. Tires in great shape, Interior looks great, Car needs exterior TLC. No accidents, clean title & carfax. New battery, most all little stuff works except detailed below. Upgrades performed to the car: - Conforti p chip - Mustang fuel injectors - Bilstein HD struts and shocks - UUC clutch stop - New style BMW rims- Replaced the carpet. - Carpet mats - Wood stick shift - Upgraded stereo and speakers - Key-less entry system - Upgraded vacuum hoses to silicon - Front and Rear Seats replaced and in crack free condition. Issues: - Needs a paint job and ding / dent repair (interior great, but exterior needs TLC) - Original owner had this red car painted black. - Typical 535 (e28) rear bumper crack - Driver side door cannot be unlocked with a key (installed remote keyless system to get around) - A/C leaks so I disabled it by removing the AC compressor belt - light in drive computer has gone out - Odometer gear broke and was repaired in 2007, so the car lost mileage between 2003 - 2007. I suspect it was about 25K since the car was never a daily driver. Speedo needle has a slight kink in it that happened during the change. - I bought the car with the dash cover installed, but I suspect the dash below is cracked. - Car runs fast and has new battery, but has mostly sat idle since 2007. - 535is trunk fin was cracking badly so I replaced it with a 535i trunk lid (without the fin) - 535is front seats were cracked, so I replaced them with 535i seats Please don't hesitate to contact me with any questions. If additional photos are needed or would like to stop by during the 7 day auction time, please email me. |

2014 BMW R NineT
Tue, 26 Aug 2014BMW is taking a page from the Harley-Davidson playbook with its groundbreaking R NineT. A retro cafe racer with an urban hooligan twist, the bike is fully customizable from fork to exhaust. Of course, any motorcycle can be customized, but the fact that BMW has built its newest bike to encourage modification using parts that can be swapped with simple tools is a radical move for a motorcycle maker best known for its plug-and-play touring bikes.
To underscore exactly how radical, BMW has even partnered with custom heavy-hitter Roland Sands Design, which developed the initial concept for the bike and is now manufacturing a full line of parts and accessories for the R NineT, including radial valve covers ($950), retro racing saddles ($400-$420), radial gauge housing ($400) and a radial headlight bezel ($250), among other things, all of which can be swapped with a socket wrench or screwdriver instead of a hacksaw, wire cutters and TIG welder.
Alas, the bike I tested for two weeks was stock, so consider it a blank canvas.
2014 BMW M235i is your Diet M4
Mon, Jan 13 2014Alongside its big brothers, the M3 and M4, the new M235i was rolled out by BMW at the Detroit Auto Show today as the sportiest member of the 2 Series range. The sharp two-door is the replacement for the current 1 Series, meaning the M235i is more or less the equivalent of the old 135is. Underhood sits BMW's venerable 3.0-liter, turbocharged inline six-cylinder engine, complete with 322 horsepower and 332 pound-feet of torque. Power is, naturally, sent to the rear wheels via either a six-speed manual or an eight-speed automatic, allowing the M235i to hit 62 miles per hour in 4.8 seconds when optioned with the automatic. Prices start at $43,100, meaning the M235i should give the $47,450 Mercedes-Benz CLA45 AMG a real challenge in terms of cluck for the buck, provided a second set of doors isn't needed. We've got a full gallery of live images from the floor of the 2014 Detroit Auto Show, along with the stock gallery and BMW's press release from our original post on the 2 Series. Scroll up for the former and down for the latter. The All-New BMW 2 Series Coupe A new dimension for The Ultimate Driving Machine Woodcliff Lake, N.J. – October 24, 2013 – 6:00pm EDT/3:00pm PDT. . . BMW today announced the introduction of an entirely new model series with the introduction of the all-new BMW 2 Series Coupe. This new take on The Ultimate Driving MachineTM will arrive in the US in the first quarter of 2014 as the 228i and the M235i. The BMW M235i, the first M Performance Automobile offered in the US, includes an impressive list of performance enhancing features. This successor to the successful 1 Series Coupe will continue the decades-long tradition of premium sub-compact coupes with impeccable driving dynamics when it makes its world debut at the North American International Auto Show in January 2014. The 2014 BMW 2 Series Coupe will be offered at a Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price of $33,025 for the 228i and $44,025 for the M235i, including $925 destination and handling.
BMW won't bring front-drive 2 Series tourers to US
Wed, Mar 11 2015BMW may have rolled out a new front-drive 2 Series in overseas markets, but according to the latest from Automotive News, it won't be bringing it to the United States anytime soon. The model line consists of the 2 Series Active Tourer – the company's first front-drive model – and its extended counterpart, the 2 Series Gran Tourer, which was introduced just last week at the Geneva Motor Show. Though available with all-wheel drive, their front-drive underpinnings make them a radical departure for the Bavarian automaker, which has made a name for itself on rear-drive architecture. The development is not unlike the path which Mercedes has pursued with models like the A-Class hatchback, B-Class minivan, CLA four-door coupe and GLA crossover. BMW evidently thinks, however, that even in its longer Gran Tourer form, the 2 Series hatchback is still too small for the US market, where minivans have grown far beyond their miniature dimensions. The 2 Series name will continue to be offered on the rear-drive coupe and convertible that were spun off of the 1 Series and which are unrelated to the front-drive hatchback and minivan. The X1, however, is slated to switch to the front-drive platform shared with the company's Mini brand.
