Car is in excellent shape and has a reasonable 94k. very well built solid convertible, the Germans really know how to build a car. Mechanically awesome, just jump in and cruise your favorite Vista's. No warning lights, everything works, Ice cold a/c power top, top is in good condition. Has aftermarket DVD/Radio/USB/sd card capability. No body damage past less than normal wear and tear, interior really nice as well, no rips or tears.  Has a couple nicks and such but you would expect more, the biggest is between the front intakes (see pic)  Basically I am pointing out stuff that most people would just skip over in their description.

Spiffy 2.8 option fires right up runs and idles smooth, no hesitation or hiccups in the power band, way more fun than the anemic base engine.  This car is surprisingly quick.  No smoke at start up or while driving, check the youtube driving video, you can see how smooth the power delivery is no hesitation hiccups etc.  I've put a piece of cardboard under the car, and had it running in the driveway for half an hour, then off for an hour before I pulled the CLEAN cardboard out from under it, no leaks.

Handles like BMW's are known to. Recent safety inspection/oil change and clean in and out. 5 speed trans shifts good with no clutch slippage, all gears work no grinding Real BMW's are manual.  Lots of tread on all the tires, one had a plug in it so I replaced it with a new matching one.  It has a front plate bracket, which I took off for pics, thats why it has the small holes in the front bumper, you of course get the bracket.


Full power, windows/mirrors/locks etc, Heated seats, A/C Cd/DVD (only problem is radio forgets setting when car turned off who cares It has usb ipod hook up anyhow, who wants to listen to commercials? Power convertible top, Traction Control.

Very fun car to drive.


Here is walk around video of it while it's running, anything I point at is a blemish. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XVa2X2b4K3M


Carfax shows a minor accident as cosmetic all fixed long ago of course. 



Payment to be made in cash if you insist on cashiers check it has to be off a local to me institution, but I really hate checks, title handed over at same time.

No warranties expressed or implied sold as is where is.

If you want to fly in and drive out I will pick you up from Dulles (IAD) for free.

I reserve the right to end auction due to local sale. 

I will not sell it for less than ,minimum bid no matter the outcome. 

Full payment due within 8 days of auctions end, no deposit required when fully paying in the 8 days.

2015 BMW i8: Autoblog Technology of the Year finalist

Wed, 19 Nov 2014


Traditionally, nominations for the Autoblog Technology of the Year award are earned for specific developments - a new-think powertrain, a uniquely developed material, a groundbreaking smartphone app, or what have you. In the case of BMW's marvelous i8, it so bristles with novel applied sciences and fresh features that we broke with tradition and nominated the entire car.
We just couldn't help ourselves. Oh, we could've focused on the i8's carbon-fiber monocoque, or its well-resolved plug-in-hybrid powertrain that incorporates a tiny 1.5-liter three-cylinder engine and an electric motor, or its seamless through-the-road all-wheel drive. This is a car that will even have frickin' laser beams for headlights - at least it will for our friends in Europe (and it will in the US, should our legislators ever catch up).

Recharge Wrap-up: Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV Finishes AXCR, Nissan Leafs drive 528 million collective miles

Wed, Aug 20 2014

The Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV has successfully completed the Asia Cross Country Rally 2014. The plug-in Mitsu finished first in the EV class, and 14th overall, clocking in at 19 hours, 17 minutes and 12 seconds. For its second year in the competition, the Outlander PHEV used a new suspension with more ground clearance to help it tackle the race's treacherous terrain. Besides the glory of taking on the challenging competition, the rally helped Mitsubishi gather valuable data for EV development. The race took place over 1,367 miles of varied terrain from Thailand to Cambodia. Read more at Hybrid Cars, or visit Mitsubishi UK's Facebook page. Nissan Leaf drivers have driven more than 528 million miles worldwide. That accounts for a reduction of 150,000 tons of carbon dioxide emissions since the EV's 2010 launch. Nissan projects that Leaf drivers will surpass a collective 1 billion electric kilometers (621 million miles) by January 2015, or perhaps even sooner if sales keep increasing. The mileage data was collected through the car's CarWings telemetry.

Whether it's battery-electric, hybrid, or plug-in hybrid, electrons will be doing their share to get the well-heeled from place to place. According to an article at The Sydney Morning Herald, PHEVs are "the most promising option." The BMW i8 is a fine example, as is the Porsche Panamera S E-Hybrid, and Audi and Mercedes-Benz have plug-in plans of their own. Lexus, not so much. Read more at The Sydney Morning Herald. PGA golfer Hunter Mahan has taken delivery of a BMW i3 he won by scoring a hole-in-one. BMW offered a free, all-electric i3 to the first player to score a hole-in-one in the 2013 BMW Championship at Conway Farms Golf Club, which Mahan did on the 17th hole. The BMW Championship raised money for Evans Scholars Foundation. BMW Hole-in-One Scholar Melyzjah Smith, who was awarded a full four-year college tuition and housing scholarship in honor of Mahan's slick shot, was on hand to meet the golfer as he received his i3.

Car and Driver lists 10Best for 2013, same as it ever was

Wed, 05 Dec 2012

Forgive us for having the distinct feeling of déjà vu, but it certainly feels like we've been here before. By that we are referring Car and Driver and the announcement of its annual 10Best vehicles for 2013. To be sure, it's an impressive selection of cars that combine heart-pounding performance and frugal sensibilities, but it also represents something of a broken record on the part of C/D. We're not so sure that's a flaw, though, as the resulting list is tough to argue with.
Vehicles like the Ford Mustang, Porsche Boxster, and BMW 3 Series have maintained their high-horsepower spots on this list for several years now. Even on the more practical and nimble end, the Honda Accord, Honda Fit and Mazda Miata have not budged. These continued spots are even in light of redesigns for some vehicles such as the Accord, Boxster and 3 Series.
In fact, the only newcomer to the 10Best list this year are the Scion FR-S/Subaru BRZ twins, which knocked out the Cadillac CTS-V. We think it would have been a huge misstep to have excluded the FR-S/BRZ, even in light of the supercharged Caddy's lamentable departure from 10Best.
