Car is for sale just outside Philadelphia PA.  It runs very well and has no known mechanical problems.  New coils packs and spark plugs were installed just last week. I have a clear title, and believe the car is accident free.  My father bought it new in 2001, sold it to my aunt, and then my uncle, now my brother. He lives in NYC and simply does not need a car.  I believe this is a no accident car. 

Body shows as a car with 200,000 miles would.  There are lots of dings and scratches.  Car does clean up nicely, but don't expect a show car by any stretch.  No real dents or damage. The interior is very nice. It has no rips or tears.  The leather looks much better than it should for its age.  Seats are firm and in great shape as is the head liner.  The windows locks, etc all work fine.  The tires have less than 2000 miles on them.  The were $1300 when installed recently. The only real problems are that the hood pull cable broke off the mount.  It still works, just need to yank on cord.  And the display computer is fading out, and sometimes is hard to read.   Car is inspected in PA.  

This is a chance to own a great BMW for a few grand.  I try to be as honest as possible.  I'm happy to send more pics, or answer any questions via email or cell. (two-six-7-9-two-five-zero-4-six-2.   I'm not interested in trades.  No pay-pal for full amount.  Please come see it and drive it during the evening this week. Thanks for looking.

Whoops, typo on phone number:  Its two-six-7-8-two-five-zero-4-six-two.  Thanks.

Driving the Honda Ridgeline and marveling at Tesla | Autoblog Podcast #638

Fri, Jul 31 2020

In this week's Autoblog Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by Consumer Editor Jeremy Korzeniewski and Associate Editor Byron Hurd. They start off talking about why more people should buy the Honda Ridgeline, because it's a pretty darned good truck. Next, Byron talks about some Hyundais. He shares his experiences with the 2020 Sonata Hybrid and talks briefly about the prototype 2021 Elantra currently occupying his driveway. Up next, Jeremy shares his feelings about the BMW X1 crossover he spent some time with, prompting the gang to mull over the notion of BMW's modern interpretation of "Ultimate Driving Machine." After that, Byron talks about towing his 1990 Mazda Miata with the 2020 Infiniti QX80, and then they wrap up with some discussion of the mystery surrounding the Ford Maverick and some comments on the current state of Tesla.

Can the government mechanically force you to wear your seatbelt? [w/poll]

Fri, 30 Aug 2013


The National Highway Traffic Administration is considering the use of ignition interlocks in vehicles that would require the seatbelts of occupied seats to be fastened in order to drive the car, Automotive News reports, four decades after Congress moved to prevent manufacturers from installing them in cars sold in the US market. Following a transportation bill passed last year that lift some of the restrictions on seatbelt interlocks, automakers such as BMW are considering the benefits of using them in future cars. Now, before you go crying about your lost freedom, keep reading.
BMW said in an October 2012 petition that the use of seatbelt interlocks would allow the company to make lighter and more spacious vehicles, if the devices could be used in lieu of unbelted crash tests. The crash test has required the addition of bulky safety features, such as knee bolsters, that aren't as necessary when occupants are buckled up, especially when considering the dizzyng list of safety features that come standard on today's cars. Europe, which has a higher rate of seatbelt use than in the US, doesn't perform unbelted crash tests on cars sold there.

This BMW 2 Series ad has run afoul of Aussie ad watchdogs [w/poll]

Tue, 29 Apr 2014

A complaint by an Australian movie-goer has put the brakes on an extended in-theater ad campaign by BMW, and drawn the attention of the country's Advertising Standards Board. According to the anonymous complaint, the ad "portrays an unfavorable message, contrary to safe and sensible driving."
The ASB upheld the complaint, which said the ad for the new M235i showed driving "typical of hoon activity," thanks to the burnouts, dusty drifts and runs up to redline. It's that last one that seems to have gotten the spot in the most trouble, with the ASB acknowledging that even though the car wasn't shown breaking the speed limit, the ad was in violation of a voluntary code of conduct for automotive advertising, according to Australia's Go Auto.
BMW doesn't seem to agree, pointing out that the ad uses creative editing, aggressive camera angles and other filming tricks to "add visual impact."
