Up for grabs is one very rare 1979 BMW 635CSi. This car is very rare and desirable because of it's unique body work and euro instrumentation. The European bumpers are very difficult to find and were not available in the US. The 635 model was not sold in the US for 1979 making this grey market import very rare. It has a very low 123k miles on it.
A little history about the car... I bought this car while it was in the midst of restoration. The original engine had failed and was being replaced with a very low mileage engine and 5-speed overdrive manual transmission from a wrecked late model 635. The engine is installed in the engine bay, but needs to be wired with it's included harness and computer. The transmission is not installed. This is basically the remaining work to be done to have a running, driving car. I have extensive documentation that came with the donor car stating the fantastic condition of the engine and transmission.
The body of the car is in surprisingly good condition with some minor rust in the usual places around the rear wheel wells. The euro cars always have an amount of rust, this one being one of the least rusty euro BMW's I have seen. The nose does have a dent, but a replacement piece in excellent condition is included, along with the very nice kidney grills. It is very solid overall. The doors open and close with that excellent feel one expects from BMW. Very tight and quiet. The wheels are very rare as well, I will not sell them separately.
The interior is in fair condition. The door panels are very nice as are the rear seats and carpet. The front seat leather is deteriorated but intact, the seats are solid with no degradation of the foam or structure. The headliner is excellent. The dash is cracked in the typical fashion of most 635 BMW's, replacement covers are readily available. The instrumentation is all euro, very unique and in great condition. The rear seats and panels are also very nice.
MANY extra parts are included with the car including but not limited to rear seats, rear center console with climate controls and beverage chiller (rare!), instrument cluster, various engine sensors and parts, wheels, E28 rear subframe with sway bar that will allow the use of larger brakes, and a wide variety of gearing options with the use of a later model differential. A 3.73 limited slip differential is included. Extra tail lights in excellent condition, grills, lenses, nose piece with kidney grills, short shifter, strut tower brace, and much more.
I am aware that this car could be parted out for a sum much greater than my asking price. The wheels, differential and bumpers alone could easily be sold for my asking price, but I would like to see this car go to someone who is willing to restore it. It is an amazing car that should remain on the road. I have seen the European bumpers sell in excess of half of my asking price alone. To the BMW enthusiasts out there, you will recognize the value in this car. Look up the cost of a strut tower brace for a 635 just to give you an idea of the parts value!
Please feel free to ask questions and request pictures. I am available to show the car most any time. I will be posting more pictures later today.

BMW, Toyota outline new tech joint venture, new sports car
Fri, 25 Jan 2013Back in June, Toyota and BMW announced a "memorandum of understanding" outlining plans for the two companies to join forces on future products and technology development. On Thursday, they signed a more formal and binding agreement that goes further into detail about the partnership, and it all sounds pretty exciting. The two announced they will work together in four main areas:
Joint development of a fuel cell system
"Set up a feasibility study to define a joint platform concept for a mid-size sports vehicle"
Your guide to vehicle subscription services
Mon, Oct 1 2018They might be extremely limited in scope because of location availability, but vehicle subscription services are a growing trend that most luxury manufacturers are jumping on. Plans are expensive, but you're paying for much more than just the car typically. We highlighted four of the larger plans with a few more listed at the end. Care by Volvo Volvo launched its subscription service last year with its brand-new XC40. It was the only vehicle available for a time, but subscribers can now get an S60 sedan as well. Subscriptions are for two years, with the monthly price including insurance, a concierge service, wear-and-tear item replacements and all maintenance. You'll be able to drive 15,000 miles per year with whichever Volvo you choose, and although there are no options to extend that mileage, you can swap cars after a year. Pricing for the XC40 is $650 per month in base trim, while an S60 can be as expensive as $850 for the R-Design. Volvo's plan is to offer more cars soon through the service, but it's relatively limited compared to others right now. Porsche Passport Porsche has two levels in its subscription service: Launch and Accelerate. Launch will cost $2,000 per month and give you access to the Cayman, Boxster, Macan and Cayenne. All of those but the Cayenne can be had in "S" trim as well. Accelerate is where the fun really starts. For $3,000 per month you can choose from a fleet of 911s, including the S, 4S, Cabriolet and Cabriolet S. If those aren't enough, you can also get the Panamera 4S, Macan GTS and Cayenne S. There are no mileage limits and you can change vehicles as often as you'd like. Also included in the price is insurance, repairs, detailing and any maintenance. It might be extremely expensive and limited to Atlanta only, but this subscription service is second-to-none for what you get. Audi Select Audi just launched its subscription car service, and it's offered in one version for a flat fee of $1,395 per month. For that you'll have access to five different cars including the A4, S5 Coupe, A5 Cabriolet, Q5, and Q7. Not a bad range of vehicles, but it would've been neat to see the recently updated A7 in there too. Maybe in time. Like the others, insurance and maintenance are wrapped up in the price. Audi is allowing for unlimited miles and two car swaps per month here. In addition to that, you'll get two days of free rentals through Audi's Silvercar rental agency should you go on a trip.
Alpina B3 Bi-Turbo burns all the midnight oil
Wed, 11 Sep 2013We've got good news and bad news for you, boys and girls, from the floor of the Frankfurt Motor Show. The good news is that the BMW M3 has come early, with a diesel, in wagon form - albeit with a different name. The bad news is that it will in all likelihood never make it to America. Which is a shame, because it's awesome.
What we're talking about, of course, is the new Alpina D3 Bi-Turbo. BMW's wickedly talented but lesser know stepchild has created a 3 Series with a 3.0-liter twin-turbo diesel six packing 345 horsepower and 516 pound-feet of torque. You - and by "you," we mean overseas buyers - can choose between sedan or wagon, as well as rear- or all-wheel drive. But the bottom line is a 4.6-second 0-62 time and a 173-mph top speed... from a diesel.
We scoped out the rear-drive wagon Alpina brought to the show, decked out in its signature blue. And you can, too, in the gallery of live shots above, along with the freshly assembled stock photos of both sedan and wagon versions in the gallery below.
