1984 Bmw 635csi 3.5 Euro, E-24, on 2040-cars
Chico, California, United States
Here is a rare, fast and desirable Euro 635csi (E24). Use as a
daily driver before it was listed for sale. For the purpose of California
Registration, the car is currently registered as an 1984, but is believed to be
a 83. Motor/Trans: Runs Great, and is very strong! Compression test taken
on 7/19/2013 indicated: #1cyl 185, #2 190, #3 190,#4 185, #5 185, #6 190.
Miles are unknown, due to odometer not working. Car has the coveted rare 5
speed "Dog-Leg" racing transmission. AC blows cold, but not
efficient as late model cars, compressor is a bit loud. Car steers
strait, appears to have been lowered when I purchased it. Mechanic noted the
muffler hanger is broken, and causing rattle. Wheels are 16x8.5 BBS from a BMW 840i. Tires appear to be good for a few more thousands miles. The brakes need
service. The indicator light is now on and the brakes are starting to get
mushy. Although there is no grinding or noise, they should be checked out.
Body/Interior: Very close for paint! Body is strait, no noted dings, doors
latches need a little adjusting, passenger door handle needs adjusting and has
to be opened from the inside, trunk lid does not stay up. Electric: All
exterior lights/signals work. Interior lights work, but tachometer is reading
incorrectly, Odometer not working, and speedometer seems a tad slow. All
windows go up/down, passenger window gets stuck on the way up and needs a
little pull to get it up, does not have a stereo. This car is from California and clean w/No Rust what so ever! Trunk/floors, rockers, fender wells, shock
towers, cross members, frame door hinges are all in excellent condition!
I started removing some molding for paint prep, I have all the moldings,
but do not have fog lights, or side-marker lights. The rear is also missing the
corner rubber pieces that rap around the 3 piece rubber molding that sits just
above the rear bumper. The interior is in very good shape! No rips
in seats (leatherette front/ original leather rear), needs back speaker boxes,
needs carpet patches back on the doors, dash and windshield are cracked. Note:
This is a very rare collectors item, and climbing in value! Major service
totaling $1,748: included compression test, valve adjustment, plugs,
gasket rings, rubber seals, oil and filter, and air conditioning service was
completed on 7/19/2013.
Note: Cash, Cashiers check or PayPal only. A minimum of $500 due within 24 hours at the close of auction. Balance due within 3 days following auction close. Thanks |

2013 Nissan GT-R and 2013 Alpina B6 mix it up on track and street
Fri, 24 May 2013
Here we have Autocar making an unforeseen comparison: the Nissan GT-R against the Alpina B6 at Brands Hatch and on public roads. Steve Sutcliffe clobbers the circuit in the 3,828-pound, all-wheel-drive sports car, then sees how well the 4,114-pound, rear-wheel drive grand tourer does against it.
Sutcliffe says there are quite a few similarities between the two cars, but that's really only on the spec sheet. The Nissan's got two turbos attached to its 3.8-liter V6, 542 horsepower and 465 pound-feet of torque. The Alpina's got two turbos attached to its 4.4-liter V8, 532 hp and 528 lb-ft. But one's brief is to be a monster on the track, the other on the boulevard, and if there's anything the video demonstrates, it's each car's focus.
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.
Watch this BMW take flight at Viru Rally
Mon, 20 Oct 2014An E36 BMW 3 Series might be a good choice for a lot of purposes - a long road trip, a track day, rallycross, impressing your friends... but a full-on rally? It's rear-drive when the best rally machines are front- or all-wheel drive. But that didn't stop Pritt Koik and Alari-Uku Heldna from entering their stripped-out E36 in the Viru Rally in Estonia... or from getting some big air time when they did.
Fortunately the jump was not just caught on video... it was caught on video from three angles: two from the side of the rally stage and one from inside the cockpit. Check out all three below to see how this particular BMW got back into the aircraft business.
