All maintenance records:

I keep all of my cars in excellent mechanical condition and this one is no exception. Maintenance includes oil/filter every 10,000 miles with synthetic oil. Most recent oil change was at 131,000 or 5,000 miles ago. Major service was at 120,000 with spark plugs changed at that time. The battery was changed at 118,000. Rear brakes, always with new rotors, at 111,000. New wiper motor at 105,000. Convertible hydraulic pump is brand new ($1000 repair)

This was my daughter’s car when she attended graduate school. It has been in two minor accidents, once when a landscaper’s trailer backed into the front when she was stationary at a gas station and the second when she backed into a pole, also at a gas station. Both have been successfully repaired. The convertible top had two small tears/holes, but no water seeps in at all. The rubber gasket around the windshield has hardened and cracked from age. The interior driver’s door handle shows wear as does the leather steering wheel, the gear shift knob and the area under the handbrake. I have tried to show all of this in the pics. If you need more pics, just let me know. The interior is in remarkable good shape. The exterior has one headlight that has fogged and needs a clean. The paint is reasonable for its age. There is some paint missing from passenger mirror and driver’s front spoiler.

This is still one of the best looking cars BMW made and it is a delight to drive. Get it before it goes.

A look back on BMW, South Carolina and Southern manufacturing

Sat, 29 Dec 2012

It has been 20 years since BMW broke ground on its Spartanburg, SC manufacturing facility, and while the automaker doesn't have any plans to mark the moment, economists and industry analysts have taken a closer look at the facility's impact on South Carolina, the South and global manufacturing. As of November, the Spartanburg plant's 7,000 employees cranked out 25,000 vehicles per month, and BMW has poured some $6 billion into the state since the plant opened in 1993. While that figure nearly matches the state's proposed budget for next year, some say there have been drawbacks.
To begin with, South Carolina provided BMW with hundreds of millions of dollars worth of public money and tax breaks with little public oversight, setting a precedent that would repeat itself with other corporations. The Detroit News reports that a Pew Center evaluation found 26 states didn't have a sufficient system for evaluating tax incentive performance. But BMW opened the door for a Southern manufacturing renaissance, with automakers from Mercedes-Benz to Hyundai and Volkswagen opening plants in the Deep South.
While states have raced to offer ever sweeter tax and cash incentives for big manufacturers, officials say BMW is proof the system can pay dividends. You can read the full piece here.

Xcar celebrates 100-year anniversary with Model T tribute

Fri, Jan 9 2015

Never mind the fact that XCar hasn't been making videos for the last 100 years, the British duo have gone all silent-moving-pictures in order to make their centenary case for the Ford Model T, a car that was already seven years old in 1915. It's not a review, but a mostly sepia-tinged look at the car that started the mass-market adventure by taking that biblical advice to be fruitful and multiply and populate the Earth abundantly. Since it looks like Xcar is celebrating some kind of milestone, we've also included another video below of the first Xcar review we could find, covering the BMW M1, from the much more recent past - circa 2012.

Which of these five plug-ins should win the 2017 Green Car of the Year?

Tue, Nov 8 2016

It's going to be a competitive race for the 2017 Green Car Of The Year. With a minivan in the running for the first time in ages, the five finalists announced by Green Car Journal today include five very different plug-in vehicles. As Ron Cogan, the editor and publisher of Green Car Journal, said in a statement, "electrification is now considered by most automakers an essential technology for current and future high-efficiency models." Let's check out the list: Toyota Prius Prime, the updated plug-in version of the world's best-selling hybrid. Chevy Bolt, GM's all-new entry into the long-range EV game. Chrysler Pacifica, a family hauler with the ability to go 30 miles on electric power. Kia Optima. The nomination is for the full line-up, but really the hybrid and plug-in hybrid models are the green stars here. BMW 330e iPerformance, one of the automaker's many new plug-in hybrids that bring battery power to models outside the i sub-brand. Green Car Journal will announce the winners at the Los Angeles Auto Show on November 17th, along with some, "other green transportation announcements," whatever that means. Last year, the winner was the 2016 Chevy Volt, the first model to snatch up two wins. Which do you think should win this year?
