Rare Bmw L6 635csi on 2040-cars

The L6 was a super luxurious version of the E24 635CSi. Available in the US in 1987 only, it featured leather on virtually every surface of the interior, including the dashboard and headliner. All L6s came through with automatic transmissions.

The L6 cost around $50,000.00 when new. That was a ton of money in 1987. For that money you got every option BMW had to offer (along with the hides of 100 cows - give or take a few).

This was not a performance version of the E24. In fact, the L6 is slightly slower than the standard 635CSi because of the extra weight the luxury items and extra soundproofing added.

The exterior is in very good condition for a 27 year old car...paint looks very good, body is straight, lenses and gaskets all look very good. The wheels are the metric TRX rim and wheel combo, while the tires are still available in this size I would recommend upgrading to a 16" or 17" standard wheel. The wheels are pitted and the tires are worn and cracking due to age.

Interior is fair, the dash will need to be replaced and I think the leather seats can be re-finished. The headliner, door panels and rear seat are in average shape. The car has the stock radio and it works, clock and on board computer also work. AC needs to be recharged and the odometer does not always register mileage.

Engine runs good, trans shifts smooth, battery was recently replaced.

This is a very nice older car that has been sitting for a few years, I feel this is one of the classic BMW designs and with being a rare L6 will be more desirable as time goes by, I just have too many projects going on to spend the time this car deserves.

2016 BMW X1 will be second model on company's front-drive platform

Fri, 08 Aug 2014

BMW is putting a lot of its chips on the success of its forthcoming front-wheel drive models, and it's making a big bet on the company's future in hoping that customers will accept them. Its front-driving UKL platform is underpinning not just the current crop of Minis but a host of BMW vehicles too. The rollout starts with the 2 Series Active Tourer in Europe later this year. But the Bavarian brand confirms to Automotive News Europe that the next one is the X1 crossover, slated to come to Europe next June. It will also be joined by the X2 next summer, confirming earlier rumors about the fashionable CUV's existence.
As the previous spy photos suggest, the X1 is even smaller than the current model, and it supposedly uses the same crop of turbocharged 1.5-liter three-cylinder and 2.0-liter four-cylinder engines as Mini. But according to Automotive News Europe, the little guy is getting an extended, three-row version for the US, Russia and China. Like with the X4 or X6, the X2 shares most of the mechanical parts with its more conventional-looking sibling but features sleeker styling.
To make all of these UKL-based models possible, BMW is sharing development among them as much as is practical. According to Automotive News Europe, the next generations of the Mini Countryman, Clubman, X1 and X2 share the same electrical systems, drivetrains and more. Adding in the Active Tourer and still mysterious Family Active Sports Tourer to the mix, and the result is a big gamble that needs to go Bimmer's way.

BMW working with Dainese to put airbags in motorcycle suits [w/video]

Fri, 19 Jul 2013

Addressing the safety concerns of its customers, BMW Motorrad is co-developing a rider suit with Dainese to feature something that's much more common in automobiles: airbags.
Starting with Dainese's D-air Protect System, which is made up of inflatable protectors that deploy in 15 milliseconds, the two companies will integrate the technology into a BMW Motorrad brand, one-piece racing suit, the DoubleR RaceAir. Later a different, street-oriented airbag system that can be retrofitted to bikes will be offered to Beemer riders.
The DoubleR RaceAir is expected to be presented at the EICMA motorcycle show in Milan in November, after all required crash testing has been completed.

BMW releases complete pricing info on M3 and M4

Mon, 31 Mar 2014

When BMW unveiled the M3 and M4 at the Detroit Auto Show back in January, we told you that the new sportsters were starting at $62,000 and $64,200, respectively. That leaked info, though, only told a small part of the story for the new M cars. Now, we have the complete pricing sheet on the new coupe and sedan, direct from BMW.
The pricing intel that we had at the time was correct - prices start at $62,000 for four doors and $64,200 for two. Those prices don't include the $925 destination charge. Potential customers should also plan on spending an extra $550, as seven of the eight paint options are of the metallic variety. BMW's trademark Alpine White is the only no-cost paint option.
As for the cabin, customers will, interestingly, have the choice of a cloth/leather combination as standard. That's in addition to the standard suite of leather options. There are also extended leather and full leather options, for $950 and $3,500, respectively. There are three option packages available, covering all the extra goodies for the M3 and M4.
