It is a California car that has not been on the road since 1994. I have since been to the DMV and have paid all the back fees and penalties, giving this car a CLEAN TITLE AND CURRENT REGISTRATION. The goal of this build was to make the "Modern man's Tii". To fulfill this goal the M42 engine was purchased. The car started out as a almost complete car minus some interior parts. Every part of the car was strip off and boxed away leaving only a rolling shell. From here the car was examined for rust which it had very little of and was all patched using BMW patch pieces for the parts that needed help. Additionally all the belt trip holes, molding holes, reflector holes and bumper holes were welded shut. Finally a custom TIG welded roll bar was installed in the car for increased body stiffness and safety for that possible track day. Before being sent to the paint shop all body panels were removed from the car ( doors, hood, trunk lid, and sunroof). Also the engine bay and trunk were both sandblasted to ensure a quality job would be performed in the difficult areas. While the car was at the paint shop the Suspension was being modified to match the spirit of the car. The front suspension was completely disassembled. The sub frame was reinforced at the common cracking spot located at the engine mount. All suspension pieces were then hand painted with POR 15 to ensure ultimate durability and a nice clean finish ( a hammer has no chance of removing this paint). The sub-frame was re installed with factory rubber bushings, none of that polyurethane crap that's too stiff and squeaky. Also during the removal process all bolts from the entire car were sent to the platers to be cleaned and zinc plated for corrosion resistance and sex appeal. The sub frame was re-assembled using these bolts. The Front struts on the car were removed and front coilovers were installed in their place. The coilovers feature a adjustable collar for ride height adjustment, Eibach 300lb springs, Bilstien heavy duty shocks and an extra degree of camber built into them. The strut bearings are also attached to a fixed camber plate adding an additional half degree of camber. The stock hubs were removed and factory E21 Hubs were installed in their place. This installation allowed for the front big brake conversion. This allows for 10 in vented rotor to be installed with four piston brakes. Everything was assembled on shop floor and awaited its fresh new body. The rear suspension has a similar story to the front in that all the components were removed, sandblasted and painted with POR 15. Once removed the rear subframe was modified to allow for the adjustable camber and toe package to be installed. This will allow the owner to take out some of the excess camber that results from lowering the rear of the car. The rear of the car still lacks decent shocks and springs. Also the rear differential is a stock 2002 open. The brakes in the rear were also upgrade using the E21 backing plates and drums. Finally everything was re-installed using the newly cleaned and plated bolts. The Tii engine from this car was removed and was replaced by a 1993 M42 motor out of a 318i. This motor produces more HP than the tii ( about 140 total) with the addition of electronic fuel injection instead of mechanical. The Motor, transmission, radiator, header pipe, computer and harness have all been acquired and are included with the car. The motor showed good leak down numbers, all under 5%,(very tight), although it has not been started yet. All Tii brackets from the engine bay have been removed to allow for this engine. Other painted parts Gas tank (sandblasted, painted with POR 15) Pedal Box (sandblasted, rebuilt, painted) Steering Box ( cleaned, painted) White Cad plated Parts Headlight buckets , hood latch, wiper motor, hood hardware , door grease latch, door catch, trunk hinges, trunk latch additional parts Painted front plastic air dam Painted rear fiberglass bummber Many stock parts found in the photos Shipping I am willing to ship the car anywhere a buyer might like, although I would require that the buyer make all the arrangements. I also recommend that the buyer if interested stop by and look at the car before purchasing if all possible.

BMW predicts US will be biggest i8 market
Sat, 10 Aug 2013BMW will be showing a production version of its new i8 plug-in hybrid supercar at the upcoming Frankfurt Motor Show, and while we're quite excited about seeing the company's second i product in the flesh. According to a new report from Automotive News Europe, BMW is expecting its largest markets to be the United States, United Kingdom and Germany. Notable for its absence in that list is everybody's favorite mega-market, China.
Automobilwoche, a German-language publication of Automotive News Europe, spoke with the i8's product manager, Hendrik Wenders, who declared, "The US will be by far the largest sales market for the i8." Wenders stops short of actual mentioning what percentage of i8 sales will be in the US, but does mention that it should arrive in showrooms around the world in about nine months. The simultaneous rollout will occur in 50 different countries.
Check back for our full coverage of the i8's debut at the 2013 Frankfurt Motor Show. If you just can't wait until September, then check out our first drive of the i8 Prototype.
BMW recalls 6,073 units of i3 and Minis to replace airbag
Tue, Oct 20 2015BMW is replacing the passenger's side front airbag module on 6,073 vehicles in the US because of a supplier's manufacturing issue with the part. The affected models include the: 2014-2015 i3; 2014-2016 Mini Hardtop 2 Door Cooper and Cooper S; 2015-2016 Hardtop 2 Door John Cooper Works; and 2015-2016 Hardtop 4 Door Cooper and Cooper S. Because the airbag components aren't made correctly, they might not deploy with enough restraint in a low-speed collision. BMW isn't aware of any accidents or injuries from the problem, but this is still obviously a safety concern. According to company spokesperson David Buchko to Autoblog, customers will be notified about the issue by mail in November. As always, dealers will perform the replacements at no cost to owners. Related Video: RECALL Subject : Passenger Frontal Air Bag May not Deploy Properly Report Receipt Date: OCT 07, 2015 NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V628000 Component(s): AIR BAGS Potential Number of Units Affected: 6,073 All Products Associated with this Recall Vehicle Make Model Model Year(s) BMW I3 2014-2015 MINI COOPER 2014-2016 MINI COOPER S 2014-2016 MINI JOHN COOPER WORKS 2015-2016 Details Manufacturer: BMW of North America, LLC SUMMARY: BMW of North America, LLC (BMW) is recalling certain model year 2014-2016 MINI Cooper S and MINI Cooper two-door vehicles, 2015-2016 MINI John Cooper Works and MINI Cooper S and MINI Cooper four-door vehicles and 2014-2015 BMW i3 vehicles. Due to a manufacturing error, the passenger frontal air bag may not deploy properly in a low speed crash. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 208, "Occupant Crash Protection." CONSEQUENCE: In the event of a vehicle crash, an air bag that does not deploy properly increases the risk of injury to the front seat passenger. REMEDY: MINI and BMW will notify owners, and dealers will replace the passenger frontal air bag module, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin on November 20, 2015. Owners may contact MINI customer service at 1-866-825-1525 and BMW customer service at 1-800-525-7417. NOTES: Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov. BMW Statement: BMW has informed NHTSA of its intention to voluntarily recall approximately 923 BMW i3 vehicles to replace the passenger-side front airbag module.
2014 BMW M235i is your Diet M4
Mon, Jan 13 2014Alongside its big brothers, the M3 and M4, the new M235i was rolled out by BMW at the Detroit Auto Show today as the sportiest member of the 2 Series range. The sharp two-door is the replacement for the current 1 Series, meaning the M235i is more or less the equivalent of the old 135is. Underhood sits BMW's venerable 3.0-liter, turbocharged inline six-cylinder engine, complete with 322 horsepower and 332 pound-feet of torque. Power is, naturally, sent to the rear wheels via either a six-speed manual or an eight-speed automatic, allowing the M235i to hit 62 miles per hour in 4.8 seconds when optioned with the automatic. Prices start at $43,100, meaning the M235i should give the $47,450 Mercedes-Benz CLA45 AMG a real challenge in terms of cluck for the buck, provided a second set of doors isn't needed. We've got a full gallery of live images from the floor of the 2014 Detroit Auto Show, along with the stock gallery and BMW's press release from our original post on the 2 Series. Scroll up for the former and down for the latter. The All-New BMW 2 Series Coupe A new dimension for The Ultimate Driving Machine Woodcliff Lake, N.J. – October 24, 2013 – 6:00pm EDT/3:00pm PDT. . . BMW today announced the introduction of an entirely new model series with the introduction of the all-new BMW 2 Series Coupe. This new take on The Ultimate Driving MachineTM will arrive in the US in the first quarter of 2014 as the 228i and the M235i. The BMW M235i, the first M Performance Automobile offered in the US, includes an impressive list of performance enhancing features. This successor to the successful 1 Series Coupe will continue the decades-long tradition of premium sub-compact coupes with impeccable driving dynamics when it makes its world debut at the North American International Auto Show in January 2014. The 2014 BMW 2 Series Coupe will be offered at a Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price of $33,025 for the 228i and $44,025 for the M235i, including $925 destination and handling.
