REAL DEAL DINAN STROKER SUPERCAR DONE AT DINAN SHOP

This is the HOLY GRAIL of E34 M5'S. As per Dinan only a handful ever done and maybe 1 of 1 in color and options.  This is not a mats and accy's Dinan badge car. This is a car that was taken to Dinan at approx 38k to be turned into a super car with 4drs. In 1991 dollars almost $90k was spent on this car inc purchase price. Thats Ferrari money in 1991.

 Was taken to Dinan to have a Stage 2 Dinan stroker, complete suspension with SLS delete and their brake upgrade. Also has Dinan camber plates. Stroker included new engine and 1 camshaft. Orig docs state stage 1 but orig owner states stage 2. I was told this was done for smog purposes. I have pics of cams and was told not stock as lobes have chamfer on edges. Honestly there is no reason he would lie as he provided every receipt and invoice for the car. Also one drive and you will be convinced. Suspension includes springs, shocks, struts, SLS delete and adjustable sway bars. Brakes include Dinan upgraded calipers and lager rotors. At 4k she just gets going, suspension will hang with 911's and was one of the best braking cars of it's era.

  Car comes with 1" of receipts from almost day one. I am not that great at keeping part receipts so if I say it is new you can obviously see they are new. No I don't have a stamped book on a 25 year old car. Basically everything that can be a wear item has been addressed at least once if not 2x's if needed. This is a car you get in, turn the key and drive across country with no issues.

 That said it is a 25 year old car that was BMW'S hot rod. These cars are noisy, shake, smell just like a real Hot Rod. It is a raw driving experience and is why purists pay premiums for them. Be realistic in your expectations. I am honest seller that uses car DAILY! Ask any of the other car owners for sale if their car can be used daily. There is a HUGE difference in a car that is worked out and one that is dolled up but has hidden issues.

  Below is list of items changed in approx last 10k miles. Please note add up the cost even if you did yourself and you almost have the asking price of the car. 

Tires BF Goodrich under 500 miles. 245 fronts and 275 rear 17x8.5 and 17x10 rear rims. Rims through F Fahey and he clearenced rear and rolled lips. They fit perfectly and have perfect tire wear on old and this set. FFahey also did an alignment.
MK Motorsport wheels. I know chrome is not everybody's deal and isn't mine. They are light and fit pertly. You can have powder coated.
Hood and trunk shocks all 4
Radiator, ALL hoses, water pump, thermostat, BMW anti freeze (vac drained and filled) 
fan clutch
valve adjustment
valve cover gaskets
spark plugs, rotor and cap
TPS switch
all vacum hoses
tb sync'd
oil , tranny and rear fluids changed Kendal and Royal purple. Oil recommended by F Fahey.

Fuel sender, fuel filter, hoses, Injectors new matched and flowed set, 
engine mounts
tranny mount
oil pan gasket and main seal
blueprinted oil pump Fahey
Lower engine bearings Fahey
crank saver $450 part F Fahey
Short shifter FAHEY bush upgrade
clutch master and slave
brake fluid flush
all belts
all belt tensioners
a/c service NOT a Pep Boys $5 can redo. A/C Is cold and doesn't leak.

  Also recent complete rontrt end and brakes maybe 20k miles. Car has been well maintained and drives super nice with no e34 wander on suspension brake shudder. All windows operate. No seat twist. I use car daily to take kids to school. No drama just turn key and go. 

 What car needs: paint, it has clear coat fade and lifting. All panels have vin except hood but it's number has fallen off and by the looks of it I would say orig one, lower engine shields put back on. Have new hardware. Front piece has torn hole installs with zip tie, about time for chain tensioner new upgraded one is included but not installed, radio does not work and i have no idea why as it just shut down. i have code card. Couple exhaust hanger rubber I have new ones from BMW. SRS light cam on when I was cleaning car. I accidentally caught sensor on cloth and it undid connection. I will have rest or credit $100. There are NO issues it is the sensor being unconnected. Has rear oil drain small leak, $5 part or $200 repair. They all leak do research.

  CA buyers, it has passed smog every year since new in CA. I have tons of regi's and smog receipts. It is currently has a 2015 refi tag. That said I hate smog or anything to do with it. It has passed for 25 years and will be delivered AS IS. NOTHING was done to car to indicate it wouldn't pass today but at this price I would rather not get involved. Any other state zero issues. Also I do not have front plate and have to go to DMV to get front plate. I WOULD RATHER DO OUT OF CA SALE AND WILL DISCOUNT FOR THAT.  If you live in CA you understand.

  Nice car that can easily compete with the $25k cars with a paint job.Always a CA car.  I have been quoted $3500 and $5000 to have painted. Price reflects this. Again this is not a stock M5. It is not a backyard install it was done at Dinan and is not just a badge car it is the real deal all you can get Dinan super car. There is no other car that is as road and track capable as this car for the money.

  Why am I selling? I have medical issues that do not allow me to enjoy the car anymore. Time to pay 5x's for a car that is half as capable.

  PLEASE SERIOUS ONLY.  You win, you own end of story. i DO NOT ACCEPT ANY EXCUSES I DO NOT CARE WHAT IT IS IF YOU HIT BUY IT NOW. IT IS A LEGALLY BINDING CONTRACT. I will gladly assist any serious buy in any way I can but do not assume anything if you have a special request. 

This is a $12k car not a $120k new one please be respectful and read above before asking questions. Long winded?? Yes, but it should answer. 99% of questions.

WITH BUY IT NOW I WILL THROW IN A RADAR DETECTOR (CAR WIRED FOR IT), A $300 CAR COVER AND A CASE OF OIL. Thats about a $800.00

  Thanks and get to bidding!!!

Jalopnik and Consumer Reports see who can pull off the best snow drift

Fri, Feb 20 2015

The weather throughout much of the United States is pretty awful at the moment with some combination of extremely low temperatures, inches of snow and maybe some ice underneath it all. The folks at Jalopnik and Consumer Reports are making the absolute best out of a difficult situation by heading to CR's snow-covered test track and attempting to make the longest drift in a quartet of very different performance vehicles. Jalopnik brought along a Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG S Wagon, a Subaru WRX STI, a BMW 228i and a 1973 Volkswagen Baja Bug (heck yeah!) for the challenge. Also, the track was perfect for this group, with a mix of packed snow in places and still a few inches of unsullied powder in spots too. Ostensibly the goal was to get the tail to step out through a particular corner, but in reality this was more about having hilarious fun in the snow with fast cars. The result just looks like the best time humanly possible in this weather.

BMW X4 Concept images leak ahead of Shanghai debut

Thu, 04 Apr 2013

Last month, BMW confirmed that its long-awaited X4 crossover would debut next year, but other than imagining a smaller X6-shaped crossover, we really had no idea what the new niche model would look like. That is until a Russian website, Autowp, leaked a handful of embargoed images this morning showing the X4 Concept that will be unveiled in a couple of weeks at the Shanghai Motor Show.
From what we can see of this concept's styling, there are more elements shared with current BMW models than not. The face of the concept is an attractive blend of the current 3 Series sedan and the X3, while the roofline has definitely plucked right from the X6. This thinly veiled concept should carry over almost untouched when it enters production with the exception of the door handles and the overly stylized fascias and side mirrors. According to CarScoops, it will measure the same length as the current X3 and use the same engine lineup as well. Stay tuned, as we'll have more information on this concept shortly.

Check out 90 years of BMW Motorrad in 90 seconds

Tue, 12 Mar 2013

After ninety years in business and first-to-market motorcycle innovations like the one-piece 'tunnel' crankcase, hydraulically dampened front forks and full fairings, as well as that trademark boxer engine, BMW Motorrad is celebrating its nonagenarian status with a video: You can follow the ride on BMW motorcycles from 1923 to now in just 90 seconds.
Okay, so there's more than a video - some anniversary-themed bikes and a new retro boxer model celebrating the R 32 "airhead' from 1923 also commemorate the occasion. But you can start with the video, and that's below.
