1980 Bmw 528i 5-speed Limited Slip 63k Miles Sunroof M535i Alloy Silver No Res. on 2040-cars
Year:1980
Mileage:63000
Location:
Gainesville, Georgia, United States

This auction is for
an extremely rare 5 speed manual limited slip differential 1980 BMW
528i project car. This car does need some work before putting it back on the
road, so it should be towed away, not driven any long distances. First off this
is a great low mileage project car that does not need that much to make it
awesome. I purchased it about two years ago and I have done a lot of repairs to
it, to get it roadworthy again. The car does currently run and starts right up
but I believe one of the valves is slightly bent producing a clicking noise in
the engine. I do have the original title for the car that has been
written out to me in the buyers section, but I never titled the
car because in Georgia cars more than 25 years old don't require
titles. The original title and a Bill of Sale will be provided to new owner. There is very little rust on this car, there were a few spots, but I welded in new steel in those areas to seal everything up. I installed new brembo front brake rotors, new pads, and a new caliper as well. The transmission shift well, and the car actually handles pretty good. The tires all have good tread but they are getting old and starting to crack a bit. The interior is in good shape, but much of the seat stuffing foam has deteriorated as is common on these cars.There is only one small crack on the dash and most of the real wood trim looks good. The car does only have 63,000 miles on it. The sunroof works and some of the windows, but because the car has sat for so long some of the switches are not functional, This will need to be gone through to check connections, etc. to get everything working 100%, but should be minor problems as no wires are cut or anything like that. The body overall looks great, though there are some small dents and chips here and then, and on the trunk lid someone ruined the clear coat be putting brake fluid on it. Otherwise the paint shines great and is relatively clear. This would not be a show car but it is good driver quality paint. The major problem with the car is with the engine, I had been re-doing most of the engine area, starting with a rebuilt head. Unfortunately my machine shop failed to notice what I assume is a slightly bent valve. And now once we put it all back together the engine has a clicking noise in one cylinder. The engine otherwise runs good and does not overheat. Here is a list of upgraded parts in the engine bay. 1. Rebuilt head with
modified rocker arms, stronger than factory....unfortunately one slightly bent
valve will need to be replaced. 2. Silicone hoses 3. 2002tii intake
runners for increased power 4. Sandblasted valve
cover and intake repainted silver 5. New Spark plug wires,
distributor cap, rotor, spark plugs 6. New belts 7. New exhaust studs I am sure there are a
lot of other things I am forgetting... Again this will make a great project for someone, and I have spent much more than I am trying to sell it for. I just don't have time to keep going on this one. I had intened to make it into an M535i replica, maybe the next guy or gal... I will include many spare parts with the car as well, and I have some rare performance parts that I will sell separately, like a Kamei front spoiler, an exhaust header, and 15 inch BMW deep dish alloy wheels. Let me know if you have any interest in those as well. Lastly, this is not a perfect car but it is far from a parts car as well, with a little work this could be a reliable driver or an awesome performance sedan...Thanks for bidding! There is no battery with this car, if you do not have one with you I can put one of mine in to load it up, but it is not included with this sale, if shipping I can install a new one for you at your cost for the new battery. |

BMW Concept Roadster has two fewer wheels than we were expecting
Fri, 23 May 2014The annual Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este on the shores of Lake Como is an opportunity for some of the most beautiful vehicles in the world to descend on one of the poshest places on earth each year. Unsurprisingly, the event is also increasingly the chance for automakers to debut exclusive concepts to some of the wealthiest auto enthusiasts in the world. In the last few years, BMW has become the masters of this annual unveiling with automotive concepts like the Gran Lusso Coupé, BMW Zagato Coupe and motorcycles like the the gorgeous Concept 90, not to mention the just-revealed Mini Superleggera Vision. But this year the Bavarian automaker has been somewhat tricky.
What would you first think when you heard of the BMW Concept Roadster? A lithe, two-seat convertible? Nope. This roadster is a cut-down, minimalist motorcycle with an ultra-modern design. As opposed to the retro looks of the Concept 90, this naked bike looks like it could fit in a BMW showroom tomorrow and not seem out of place.
The Concept Roadster packs the brand's classic two-cylinder boxer engine displacing 1,170 cubic centimeters and producing 123 horsepower and 92 pound-feet of torque. That power is routed to the rear wheel via a cardan drive, essentially a driveshaft, with a single-sided swing arm rear suspension. It's all nestled in a tubular spaceframe.
Why BMW doesn't plan to integrate Apple's iOS in the Car
Wed, 12 Jun 2013While watching Apple introduce iOS in the Car during its WWDC keynote on Monday, we wondered how automakers, even the 14 who've already signed up to integrate this new in-car functionality of iOS 7, will feel about having the Cupertino company's mobile operating system supplant their own in-car systems. After all, some OEMs like Ford, General Motors and many luxury automakers have sunk millions of dollars into developing their own advanced infotainment, navigation and communication platforms like MyFord Touch, CUE and older systems like iDrive.
One automaker has now spoken up. A BMW spokeperson was interviewed by someone in the news department of British auto dealer group Arnold Clark and confirmed that the company would not be getting in line to integrate iOS in the Car anytime soon. The reason, as we suspected, is that BMW believes its own products developed over the last decade are both plenty good and already so deeply integrated with other systems of the car that, as told to Arnold Clark, "it would not be that straightforward to start changing all of the architecture of a car as has been implied [by Apple]."
While BMW isn't interested in spending more money to integrate Apple's services and functionality over its own, it has spent a good bit already to integrate iPhone functionality in its cars, including the relatively rare ability to support iPod Out and display Apple's own interface on Mini models with the optional Mini Connected feature, as well as committing to integrate Siri 'Eyes Free' functionality.
