I said I would never do it but I am selling my beloved 1989 635csi. If you are interested in a 635csi, then you know this was the last model year. The interior is basically an L6 with leather on lower dash, door panels and seats. I have owed and cared for this E24 for about 5 years, and it was previously owned by a fellow club member. This is an excellent example of an unmolested e24. It is not a show car but a very clean and well maintained occasional driver. I drive it about 1 weekend a month to keep it fresh and maintained. Then it is washed and put back under the water proof cover, which is included. This car gets a lot of attention everywhere I go. Obviously everywhere I take it someone wants to buy it. I will be as detailed as I can to illustrate the condition of the car.

The exterior paint, trim, and mechanics are very presentable and serviceable inside and out. Upon close inspection some hazing is noticeable  these are the flaws, that are noticeable upon close inspection:

  1. Some hazing in the paint on the passenger side. The hazing is not noticeable at a distance and is common with these cars. It is not detectable in the pictures. By checking the door jambs, it appears to have been repainted some time ago, repaint was professionally done. It does have a few very small nicks from road use, but there is no damage on the car. I had the spoiler repaired and repainted about 6 months ago as there was a crack in the very center. It now has a small abrasion on the lower lip (thanks to my son), that is not very noticeable. There is no damage to the spoiler. There is a small paint imperfection on the lower edge of the trunk - I tried to capture it in the picture but it is not noticeable. 
  2. The onboard computer works but the backlight is out. I have a replacement light that is included.
  3. One of the climate control sliders is broken. I have a complete excellent condition center unit that will be included. I just haven't had time to replace it.
  4. The A/C was professionally converted to r134 in 2013 and work excellent; front and rear.
  5. All dash gauges work and there are no check lights on.
  6. There are no cracks on the dash or seats. The driver's seat has sheepskin cover installed. It shows normal wear, but there are no tears or cracks. There is sheepskin for the passenger seat that has not been installed, but is included. 
  7. The headliner is in good condition with no sagging or tears.

The following Non OEM upgrades have been done:

  1. Lowered suspension with Bilstein shocks/struts and sport springs.
  2. B&B stainless steel catback exhaust.
  3. 17" OEM BMW 3 piece wheels - The wheels are in good condition and not bent. Upon close inspection there is some minor hazing in the clear coat.
  4. Window tint (not real dark but the maximum UV blockage
  5. Front Strut bar.

The car rides on Continental Extreme Contacts that have about 15k miles on them, so there is plenty of thread left. As you can see this is a 5 speed and it is original and rare. This is car that is ready to drive anywhere. NADA describes good condition as "an older restoration or a well-maintained original vehicle. Completely operable. A 20-footer." This 635csi is above average condition. I ran CARFAX and it adjusts the NADA retail up $920. I have set my Buy Now at a very fair price. If she doesn't sell I am content to keep it as it will only increase in value.

For the Buy Now price I will include new front suspension parts I bought about a year ago because just wanted to replace them. However, my technician said they were not needed. Included are R&L tire rods, sway bar links, center link, R&L / upper and lower strut rods.

Watch the BMW M4 drift around an aircraft carrier

Mon, 07 Jul 2014

A Nimitz-class American aircraft carrier is big. Really, really big. After all, it has to be, in order to launch and recover a wide array of military aircraft. But when it's not catapulting F/A-18 Super Hornets and E-2 Hawkeyes into the wild blue yonder, what exactly can you use its 1,040-foot long flight deck for? Well, BMW seems to have an idea.
Now, obviously BMW hasn't paid Uncle Sam to convert the deck of the USS John C. Stennis into a racetrack (but what an idea!). That doesn't make this video of an Austin Yellow M4 slipping and sliding its way around the carrier deck any less entertaining. The video itself comes, weirdly considering the US aircraft carrier, from BMW of Canada, and we aren't really sure what the point of it is. There's no voiceover, or title or closing screens to lend the scene any context, and it seems unlikely that this sort of seemingly high-dollar video wouldn't be done sheerly for giggles. Whatever the reason for its existence, it's worth a watch.
Scroll down and have a look.

BMW Concept Active Tourer Outdoor enjoys a day in the sun

Wed, 10 Jul 2013

This BMW Concept Active Tourer has evolved for the nature and cycling set and premiered at OutDoor Friedrichshafen, a trade fair in held this month in Germany. The sturdy wagon is tweaked with new materials, accessories and ConnectedDrive features for those who do a lot of their living under the sky as opposed to inside their cars.
Under the hood is the same plug-in hybrid drive system we've were introduced to in 2012, featuring a transversely-mounted, 1.5-liter turbocharged three-cylinder engine paired with an electric motor and a battery pack under the rear compartment floor. Total output is 190 horsepower and 147 pound-feet of torque headed to the front wheels, a claimed time from zero to 62 of under eight seconds, a pure electric range of up to 19 miles, a top speed of 124 miles per hour and claimed fuel economy of around 95 US miles per gallon.
The space behind the rear seats is the showcase, with a transformable compartment that can stow two bikes on built-in, retractable carriers. Remove the front wheel and seat from the bikes, then the frames can be locked into place using two rails and brackets. The wheels can be stowed in a holder attached to the right rear seat, the saddles can go into a compartment in the load floor. If you need to make a quick adjustment or a fix, you can do so since the bikes are aligned across the load bay.

BMW expounds on i8 design and performance in new videos

Fri, 03 Jan 2014

At this point, there isn't much we don't know about the 2015 BMW i8, so BMW is starting to focus its attention on reassuring consumers that the future of BMW won't abandon the past. In these two recently released videos, BMW answers questions prospective buyers might have about about the new model's design and performance.
In the design video, BMW explains how the i8's styling is intended to be practical, with aerodynamics and fuel efficiency in mind, yet still have a sporty and dynamic look. The performance video aims to show that the plug-in hybrid can be fuel efficient while still delivering plenty of performance, and it shows an animation about how the i8's drive systems work together. Scroll down to watch both videos on this bold green supercar.
