1987 Bmw M6 on 2040-cars
Valrico, Florida, United States
|
This is a 1987 BMW M6. The M6 was only made in 1987, 1988, and part of 1989, for US consumption. Less than 2,000 total were produced. This is one of the rare survivors remaining on the road! It is the classic supercar of its time. Designed as an Autobahn Prowler, this vehicle was dubbed the "Ferarri Killer" by the automotive press, and by BMW Marketing. This vehicle has approximately 141,000 miles on it. The odometer stopped at 97,196 but I have kept pretty good logs of miles driven. Is it perfect? No, but it is pretty close, and 27 years old to boot! I have owned this M6 for nearly 20 years. It has been maintained over that entire time by the best BMW mechanic in the Tampa area. All maintenance has been done as scheduled and all records of everything done to the car over my ownership are available. The engine was completely rebuilt approximately 40,000 miles ago, so it is just getting broken in. Periodic renewal of all items has also been done. The most recent activity included: flush and renew all fluids, new pads and rotors, renew all air conditioning items, valve adjustment, as well as a series of other items to make sure the vehicle is A1. I also just had a complete, professional detailing done, inside and out. It is gorgeous and runs great. You likely will want to add a new sound system. It came to me with an old, non-OEM system. Really made no difference to me. Engine and exhaust growl was enough music for me! Under my stewardship, it has always been garage-kept, and never driven in the rain. It was mainly my weekend vehicle, and sometimes back and forth to work. It is time for me to allow this vehicle to move along and for a new owner to take over proper care and feeding. I am looking for that person. Thanks! |

Official pics of BMW M235i surface ahead of coupe's debut
Thu, 24 Oct 2013BMW isn't supposed to debut the 2 Series until tomorrow, according to Carscoops, but that hasn't stopped these photos of the 1 Series Coupe replacement from leaking onto the web. First picked up by a BMW 2 Series enthusiast site, the photos eventually found their way around the web, and complement the spy images we showed you of the uncovered 2 Series from almost six months ago.
This particular car is the M235i, and will serve as the range-topping 2 Series. As the number "35" is affixed to this car's tail, there's no question that the engine powering this example is BMW's turbocharged, 3.0-liter six-cylinder. As we reported earlier this month, power for the M235i should sit around 320 horsepower, blessing the 3,240-pound coupe with a 4.8-second sprint to 60 miles per hour when equipped with an eight-speed automatic (a six-speed manual is also available, but drops the time down to an even five seconds).
While this isn't a full-bore M car like the 1 Series M Coupe, it has been touched by the company's in-house tuning division, which means it sports a racier body kit, blacked out grilles and M-labeled interior items, like the steering wheel.
2016 BMW X5 M is big and bold, not beautiful
Wed, 19 Nov 2014Awesome as it is, the BMW X5 M has never really been an attractive machine. Big and bulgy are the themes here, and that's only more pronounced with the X5's most recent refresh. But no matter, the X5 M has never been about looks - for this machine, it's all about performance, and BMW's hi-po crossover absolutely delivers in this regard.
Under the hood is the familiar 4.4-liter, twin-turbo V8, though power has been boosted to 567 horsepower and 553 pound-feet of torque - healthy increases of 12 and 53, respectively, compared to the outgoing model. Hitting 60 miles per hour is said to take just four seconds, which is damn impressive considering this thing weighs well over 5,000 pounds.
But the X5 M has always been shockingly good to drive, with limits you'll never reach except in the most hardcore track scenarios (which we'd really like to see, by the way). It's not the prettiest thing ever, but that's okay. It's not exactly cheap, though, with prices starting at $99,650. Woof.
Coming Toyota Supra to forgo hybrid, get a BMW six-cylinder turbo?
Mon, Mar 30 2015For years, almost all of the talk about the Toyota FT-1 concept becoming a resurrected Supra envisioned a hybrid under the hood. And then the latest take on Future Toyota 1 showed up at the 2014 Detroit Auto Show and - although Toyota wouldn't say a word about any engine at all - horizons began to expand. Imaginary fancies were aided by the news that Toyota had partnered with BMW to develop a sports car on the next-generation BMW Z4 platform, which would necessarily mean an engine bay designed to accept an old-fashioned hunk of gas-burning iron-working solo. Car and Driver now turns the whole thing around, reporting that there will be an inline-six with forced induction provided by BMW under the hood. What about that hybrid, though? The report states, "there's currently no indication that the Silk Road cars will offer hybrid options" - 'Silk Road' being the codename for the jointly-developed vehicles. CD makes a point to note that said tidbit came from Germany, not Japan. However, designers at Toyota's Calty studio did tell Automotive News last year that they designed the body with an inline-six in mind, a nod to the Supra's history. Hybrid rumors aren't dead yet, though - remember, we were hearing about all-wheel drive and supercapacitors in May 2014. The coupe is predicted to be a 2018 model, making its appearance sometime in 2017, and be "about 10 percent" smaller than the FT-1 concept. Related Video:
