Up for grabs is one very rare 1979 BMW 635CSi. This car is very rare and desirable because of it's unique body work and euro instrumentation. The European bumpers are very difficult to find and were not available in the US. The 635 model was not sold in the US for 1979 making this grey market import very rare. It has a very low 123k miles on it.
A little history about the car... I bought this car while it was in the midst of restoration. The original engine had failed and was being replaced with a very low mileage engine and 5-speed overdrive manual transmission from a wrecked late model 635. The engine is installed in the engine bay, but needs to be wired with it's included harness and computer. The transmission is not installed. This is basically the remaining work to be done to have a running, driving car. I have extensive documentation that came with the donor car stating the fantastic condition of the engine and transmission.
The body of the car is in surprisingly good condition with some minor rust in the usual places around the rear wheel wells. The euro cars always have an amount of rust, this one being one of the least rusty euro BMW's I have seen. The nose does have a dent, but a replacement piece in excellent condition is included, along with the very nice kidney grills. It is very solid overall. The doors open and close with that excellent feel one expects from BMW. Very tight and quiet. The wheels are very rare as well, I will not sell them separately.
The interior is in fair condition. The door panels are very nice as are the rear seats and carpet. The front seat leather is deteriorated but intact, the seats are solid with no degradation of the foam or structure. The headliner is excellent. The dash is cracked in the typical fashion of most 635 BMW's, replacement covers are readily available. The instrumentation is all euro, very unique and in great condition. The rear seats and panels are also very nice.
MANY extra parts are included with the car including but not limited to rear seats, rear center console with climate controls and beverage chiller (rare!), instrument cluster, various engine sensors and parts, wheels, E28 rear subframe with sway bar that will allow the use of larger brakes, and a wide variety of gearing options with the use of a later model differential. A 3.73 limited slip differential is included. Extra tail lights in excellent condition, grills, lenses, nose piece with kidney grills, short shifter, strut tower brace, and much more.
I am aware that this car could be parted out for a sum much greater than my asking price. The wheels, differential and bumpers alone could easily be sold for my asking price, but I would like to see this car go to someone who is willing to restore it. It is an amazing car that should remain on the road. I have seen the European bumpers sell in excess of half of my asking price alone. To the BMW enthusiasts out there, you will recognize the value in this car. Look up the cost of a strut tower brace for a 635 just to give you an idea of the parts value!
Please feel free to ask questions and request pictures. I am available to show the car most any time. I will be posting more pictures later today.

Recharge Wrap-up: BMW tests AdBlue pumps, Drivr is a Tesla taxi service
Thu, Jan 22 2015BMW is testing AdBlue pumps in Germany. AdBlue fluid is used to remove NOx from diesel exhaust, and it is stored in its own tank within the vehicle. Filling AdBlue is easy enough for drivers to do it themselves, and with the proliferation of diesel vehicles in Europe, a pump filling system could make more sense than using the current hand-held containers. BMW is testing AdBlue pumps at three fueling stations in Munich and Berlin to help develop further AdBlue dispenser technology. Read more at Green Car Congress. Drivr Green Personal Transportation is a Tesla taxi service in Cincinnati. Two former employees of Tesla Motors founded the startup, which bills itself alongside ride-hailing services like Uber and Lyft. Customers book a ride online, and are picked up by a Tesla Model S. The ride costs $2.50 per mile with a $15 minimum. Drivr currently operates three cars with seven drivers, with plans to lease another 10 Teslas and employ up to 30 drivers. The service will also be expanding to Denver soon, according to the website. Learn more at the Drivr website, or read more at Clean Technica. Ford is opening a research and development facility in Silicon Valley. The Ford Research & Innovation Center, which will be located less than three miles from Tesla Motors headquarters in Palo Alto, California, is expected to be one of the automotive industry's largest R&D facilities. "We're driving to be both a product and a mobility company, and ultimately to change the way the world moves," says Ford CEO Mark Fields. Read more at Automotive News. Law firms advising Fisker Automotive have been denied a $2.50-million fee enhancement in the car company's bankruptcy. Brown Rudnick LLP and Saul Ewing LLP were denied the extra fees, as a Delaware bankruptcy judge ruled there is "no evidence" that the firms provided anything more than what they originally expected. In denying the fee enhancement, the judge cited a "very high bar" for such awards. Read more at Law360.

Recharge Wrap-up: Hyundai and Kia rethinking diesel for US, BMW i partners with Soho House
Wed, Oct 15 2014Hyundai and Kia are once again considering bringing diesel vehicles to the US. "It's something that's a strong consideration for us at this point," says John Juriga of Hyundai/Kia America. Diesel would help the group meet future fuel economy standards. While the obstacles that previously kept the brands from bringing diesel to the US in the past still exist, Juriga says they see a "more direct path" to making diesel work for them. Hyundai and Kia are also considering introducing cylinder deactivation, plug-in hybrids and 9- and 10-speed transmissions to reach fuel economy targets. Read more at Wards Auto. BMW's i division is teaming up with Soho House as its official automotive partner. BMW will provide i3 EVs for the private club's members and guests to use. The two groups will also host events together focused on art, design and innovation, beginning with an art talk called, "The Naked Truth? Nudity, fashion, and the photographic image today." According to BMW's Steven Althaus, the two brands are a great match. "BMW i and Soho House share a common mindset: both brands strive for innovation, creativity as well as a special sense for aesthetic setting new design standards," Althaus says, "What I look forward to most about our partnership is our determination to create memorable and sophisticated experiences together."

The trikes deliver food to local businesses and restaurants, a job usually done by air-polluting diesel trucks. The electric trikes feature cargo boxes that can hold 47 cubic feet or about 660 pounds of food. The trikes are stored in a shipping container fitted with solar panels, which charges them when they're not in use. By delivering food using solar and human power, Foodlogica is helping taking pollution and traffic congestion out of the "last mile" of food transport in Amsterdam.

BMW launches new M Performance accessories for M5, M6
Wed, 16 Oct 2013Those looking to make their stock BMW look like an M model might be interested in an M Sport package. But those who already drive an M model and want that extra bit of attitude to take it over the top look towards the M Performance Accessories catalog, to which BMW has just added a new range of add-ons for the M5 and M6.
The new range of accessories include a titanium exhaust from Akrapovic that's 22 pounds lighter and an extra bit throatier than the stock unit. BMW's also offering a carbon-ceramic brake kit and 20-inch alloys to accommodate them, as well as a carbon aero kit, carbon interior trim and those trademark stripes for the truly extroverted BMW performance enthusiast.
You can check them out in the gallery above and the press release below to see what Martin Tomzczk, the DTM driver sponsored by BMW M Performance Accessories, chose for his matte black M6 Gran Coupe daily driver.
