THIS IS A NO RESERVE AUCTION, PLEASE BE PREPARED TO PAY IF YOU BID!

Up for sale is my 1988 M6. I am the 3rd owner and have owned this car for about 8 years. I originally bought this beautiful car as I was lucky to find an original Texas car that was very well cared for, in great shape, and very important had all of the service records since new. I have the original window sticker and dealer invoice as well as the certification from BMW Group Classic Archives-Munich Germany.

Shortly after I bought the car I started to de-cosmoline & clean up the engine bay and that turned into a full cosmetic restoration. I went through just about everything and either replaced, re-plated, or powder coated all parts. Here is some of what has been done:

ENGINE:

Removed all cosmoline from engine bay.
Replaced all hoses; power steering, heater, fuel lines, etc. All replacement parts are OEM BMW down to the hose clamps. I also had the air box, valve cover & air plenum soda blasted and powdercoated.
Replaced coolant resevoir/cap & washer resevoir/cap along with new windshield washer lines and clamps.
Mechanical work included fresh oil & filter, new power steering fluid & filter, flush and refill coolant (OEM BMW), checked valve lash (All within spec).
Very rare, impossible to find new original black Purolator air filter, shown in the pictures.

BODY:

This is an original TX car which, to my knowledge, has always been garaged and never smoked in. I have never driven it in the rain. There is absolutely no rust and the paint is in excellent condition with just a few nits and picks around the gorgeous body. No accidents or body work, however the previous owner had the front airdam and hood repainted due to stone chips. The repaint looks excellent and is two stage with clear coat.

INTERIOR:

The interior was in excellent condition when I bought it with only some minor wear on the drivers seat. The original dash is in excellent condition with no cracks. The rear deck & speaker pods are also in excellent condition with no warping. There are only slight signs of wear on the front drivers seat and there is a small tear on the drivers side door armrest. The rest of the interior is in immaculate condition.
I replaced the original airbag steering wheel with a period correct and much better looking M-Tech II 385mm wheel (I have the original steering wheel which will go to the new owner). Also, I added a euro ashtray delete/storage tray (I have the original ashtray which will go with the car).

DRIVETRAIN:

The drivetrain is in excellent condition with a smooth shifting Getrag 280 5 speed and limited slip differential. Trans. & Diff. fluid is fresh with Redline oils. New clutch and Auto Solutions shift kit (reduces throw distance by about 30%).

SUSPENSION & STEERING:

Completely gone through. Front suspension has new upper & lower control arms, center link, bushings and struts (Bilstein). Also, the steering box was upgraded with Ed Reather's (M Wrench) steering box reinforcement kit professionally welded in. Rear auto leveling suspension was rebuilt with new accumulators and lines and works perfect. Originally I was going to delete the original self leveling rear suspension but the original SLS shocks were in great shape with no leaks so I kept it original. I do however have a rear suspension SLS delete kit with M-Tech springs, Bilstein shocks, and hardware that will go to the new owner if he/she wants it.
Period correct and very rare BBS RS wheels in 16"x7" wrapped in Bridgestone Potenza RE750 225/50 tires. The BBS's are show quality condition and the Bridgestones have less than 1,000 miles on them. I also restored the original TRX wheels wrapped in the original style Michelin TRX GT tires (about 25% tread left) and these are included with the car to the new owner.

BRAKES:

Brakes have been freshened with new front rotors, Pagid pads and Stop Tech SS brake lines. Front calipers were rebuilt and re-plated in original cadmium plating. Accumulator (AKA Brake Bomb) was replaced. Rear brakes are stock and in excellent condition.

One note about the air conditioning. It does work however, the coolant leaks out after about a month. If I recharge it the vents blow @ 34 degrees but for full disclosure the system will need a going through.

So there you have it. This has to be one of the best documented, cleanest, M6's in the country and is in excellent condition throughout. I have all the receipts/service records and lots of the original parts and spares that will go to the new owner. I have the clear TX title in hand. This is a no reserve auction please be prepared to pay if you bid. A $500 security deposit is required within 48 hours of auction end with the balance due within 72 hours of the auction end via cash or certified bank money order/cashiers check. Buyer is responsible for shipping arrangements and I can offer limited assistance with meeting your shipper at my door. Please let me know if you have any questions and good luck!

BMW to unveil X4 in March

Mon, 04 Nov 2013

It's been about half a year since BMW unveiled the X4 concept in Shanghai. But if you've been waiting for news on when it will reach production, the latest intel indicates it'll be announced next March.
Just when in March? That's the strange part. Inautonews reports having been told by BMW that the new X4 will be announced on March 14. So, the Geneva Motor Show, then? Not quite: although that show will still be going on then, the doors open to journalists like us on March 4, not 14. So either someone has got some details mixed up, or BMW - for some reason - is planning on waiting until after Geneva to reveal the production X4.
Whenever it does, we'll be looking at a slantback version of the X3, much like BMW did with the X5 and X6, giving Bavaria a rival to the Range Rover Evoque and Porsche Macan.

Next-gen Mini could sire 10 different models including PHEV

Sat, 12 Oct 2013

The first generation of the reimagined, BMW-backed Mini was a simple things, confined to two body styles - hatchback and four-seat convertible. It wasn't until the second-generation platform came along that Mini began truly expanding, offering a long-wheelbase model, a roadster, a coupe, a five-door crossover, and a three-door, um, thing?
BMW is aiming for 10 to 12 different vehicles from just two brands off one platform.
According to an interview between Automotive News Europe and the BMW board member that oversees Mini, Peter Schwarzenbauer, the funky British brand will be expanding far beyond the seven body styles it currently offers. "With the new ULK architecture, we currently have in mind eight to 10 models," Schwarzenbauer told ANE. That architecture he mentions, will also underpin the BMW 1 Series GT and the BMW X1, meaning that BMW is aiming for 10 to 12 different vehicles from just two brands off one platform (and that's only what we know about).
