1985 BMW 735i For Restoration/Repair or Parts, Much Invested Over The Years!
I have owned this BMW for over 12 years. It used to be my family car and then my daily driver until I received a company car back in 2003, I had it registered until 2006. Since then I would just start it every month or so just to ensure everything was in proper working order. The last time I drove it around my neighborhood was last summer. At this time I cannot get her to turn over and do not have the time or will to do so (I have 4 other cars I currently maintain for the road). The car is in good condition, especially for the age with an average of only~ 5,500 miles per year. (154,696 total). Everything was working fine on the car with the exception of the A/C when I stopped driving it regularly. The car comes with the original metric size rims in addition to the MSW basket weave rims currently installed. I had owned many BMW's over the years and used to be an avid member of the BMWCCA Pocono Region, I have since migrated towards Mercedes and Porsche (PCA club member).
The Good:
I spared no expense back in the day to make this car right for my wife and children. I installed new Bavarian Autosport Springs, new shocks, new airflow meter ($600+) and much, much more. The car has held up very well over the years and still presents nicely, inside and out. Leather is in Good condition as is the wood on the dash and doors. Running on Mobil 1 synthetic since my purchase.
The not so good:
The car has not been running very much over the last 6 years, sitting in either my garage or under my carport. It has a few small rust spots as shown in photos. There is a small split in the drivers seat, radio is missing, a few minor cracks on the dashboard, one of the rims shows some scuffing. The Continental tires have plenty of tread but exhibit dry rot from sitting so long. It is likely other minor issues may surface as a result of the car sitting as long as it has, I did put fuel treatment in to prevent degeneration and oxidation and fresh gas when I ran it last year.
This car is solid and sure would not take very much to make road worthy again, or could be a great source for parts if needed.
I have 100% positive feedback and will do everything reasonable to ensure this continues.
Will only accept bidders with at least 10 positive feedbacks, $300 deposit due with winning bid balance of payment due within 7 days, cash or Paypal..

BMW reveals full details on M235i Racing
Tue, 17 Dec 2013We were suitably excited when BMW first announced the imminent arrival of the M235i Racing. After all, what's not to like about a factory-prepared racecar with 333 horsepower you can pick up for just eighty grand? Now BMW has released the full details on the latest addition to its racing portfolio, where it joins the M3 DTM, M3 GT4, Z4 GTE/GT3 and 320 TC in a growing family of competition machinery prepared by BMW Motorsport.
Based on the new 2 Series coupe, the M235i Racing is the first M Performance model for the track, and boasts the line's most powerful engine: the 3.0-liter twin-turbo straight six has been optimized to 333 horsepower and 332 pound-feet of torque. A mechanical limited-slip differential helps transfer the power to the track surface, along with race-tuned ABS, DSC and traction control.
Four-pot calipers up front and two-pot calipers in the rear shave off speed for the corner and are packed inside the 18-inch alloys, with KW dampers and H&R suspension components. Inside there's a six-point racing harness and Recaro bucket surrounded by an FIA-certified roll cage, and customers can even have an extra seat installed to take passengers for ride-alongs. All of which can be yours for €59,500.00 - equivalent to $82k at today's rates, before taxes.
Audi to spend $17 billion to fight BMW
Sat, 29 Dec 2012It's no secret that VW Group, parent company to not only Volkswagen but also Audi, Bugatti, Bentley, Lamborghini, Porsche and Ducati brands sold in the US, is determined to become the world's largest automaker. Even more impressive is that VW is prepared to spend billions to make it happen.
With that comes word that VW Group will be spending $17 billion on its Audi brand over the next three years to push itself above rival BMW. The money will be invested in both vehicle development (including lightweight auto design and alternative powertrains) and facilities (including expansion in Hungary, China and new operations in Mexico). The luxury brand is focused on global manufacturing infrastructure.
Already Europe's best-selling luxury brand, Audi's objective is to overtake BMW by the end of the decade by selling more than two million cars per year (BMW is shooting for 1.54 million sales in 2013). If those objectives are met, VW Group should be on track to be the industry's volume leader by 2018.
2013 Nissan GT-R and 2013 Alpina B6 mix it up on track and street
Fri, 24 May 2013
Here we have Autocar making an unforeseen comparison: the Nissan GT-R against the Alpina B6 at Brands Hatch and on public roads. Steve Sutcliffe clobbers the circuit in the 3,828-pound, all-wheel-drive sports car, then sees how well the 4,114-pound, rear-wheel drive grand tourer does against it.
Sutcliffe says there are quite a few similarities between the two cars, but that's really only on the spec sheet. The Nissan's got two turbos attached to its 3.8-liter V6, 542 horsepower and 465 pound-feet of torque. The Alpina's got two turbos attached to its 4.4-liter V8, 532 hp and 528 lb-ft. But one's brief is to be a monster on the track, the other on the boulevard, and if there's anything the video demonstrates, it's each car's focus.
