This a real barn find this car has been in storage for about ten years. It starts and runs well the brakes are very low but other than that its is very nice,  the lids for the rear storage compartments are missing but thats about it. The car was brought to my shop last year to be made to run after its vacation after draining the fuel tank and replacing the fuel pump it started right up. The tires are shot but will hold air, it has a header, and has been repainted from the original color to artic(?) white some rust has started to make its self known in the wheel arches but the trunk and floors are solid, later model headlamps have been installed. It looks like someone started to make a modern shark car from a pretty good older car. Feel free to contact me with any questions. This car is being sold as is where is with no warranty. Please don't bid if you don't want to pay.$500.00 deposit due within 24 hours of auction close and balance due within 7 days.I will not be responsible for shipping but will try to help set it up.Thanks for looking and happy bidding

BMW i creates high-design solar charging carport

Fri, 09 May 2014

With the first deliveries of the i3 under way, and the recent i8 press launch, the marketing push in the US for the BMW electric sub-brand has begun. These i vehicles are supposed to have a completely different feel from the rest of the brand's lineup. To complement their earth-friendly ethos, the Bavarian company commissioned BMW Group DesignworksUSA in California to create a solar carport concept that could keep the models sustainably topped up on power. It premiered alongside the i8 in Los Angeles at the electric sports coupe's media launch.
At first glance, the BMW i Solar Carport Concept looks like a pergola from a winery or a well-groomed garden, but like the i vehicles, the deeper you look, the more high-tech features there are. The sides feature carbon elements in a similar way that the i3 and i8 have a carbon fiber-reinforced plastic body. Bamboo forms the uprights because its quick-growing nature makes it rather sustainable, and the solar panels are strung along the top to harness energy.
Obviously the sun can't provide all of the energy that the electric cars need, and a BMW Wallbox Pro charger is also connected to the power grid as a supplement. It includes a readout telling users the amount of solar energy versus municipal electricity it's using.
