This is a very fine example of the 633 csi coupe, the last affordable desireable collectible from BMW,and it is in amazing ready to use condition. The start price on this classic is far below what similar cars with the 5 speed have been selling forand many of those are in rough shape. You can buy some other fixer for less but it will cost you so much more in the end. This car is ready to use NOW. Dont buy a car with air conditioning that doesnt work, warning lights unexplainably on, etc. etc. BUY A GREAT CAR that is well sorted. THIS IS IT--please take a moment to read the description!--This vehicle has clear California Title.  This is a truly beautiful car with much recently spent on it. Drive it anywhere, it is a gem. This well cared for example had a repaint just last year in the original safari beige factory color, with glass out of the car and body and prep work done to an amazing high standard of workmanship. Body and paint was over an expensive color and clear factory type repaint and it shows! The flawless body and paint of this car is just one of its highlights. A true craftsman remade the front leather seats to exacting BMW standards using the correct original pattern, top quality leather hydes, and much new material inside. The rear seats are perfect and the impression is a car of a year or two in age, not  a 1981 vintage vehicle. The carpet was replaced with a full set from a low milege 1989 car which kept the originality, fit and luxury feel correct. The rear shelf upholstery, so often damaged from sun, was also replaced correctly with the leather trim redone around the parecel shelf and speaker storage boxes. The headlining is all tight and intact and clean. This is a non smoking car. Next the dashboard, often a problem with these cars, was professionally reskinned using a high cost form unit that recovers the entire dash and retains originality perfectly with the look of a new car. At that time, non functioning heater and air conditioner controls were replaced with factory new units inside the dashboard. Also the difficult to get to and long ago bypassed heater core was replaced with a brand new factory unit. This is an extremely expensive job but it had to be done to assure that the R134A conversion of the A/C would yield a perfect heating and air conditioning unit for this luxury performance car. So few of these are in all working order on the six series cars which ruins the enjoyment. The A/C blows ice cold, and the heating works beautifully as well. If you are considering another 630, 633, or 635 make DARN SURE the heating and A/C all work and ask for receipts on a heater core or you WILL do one at over a thousand for parts and labor. If you smell coolant, just add a grand to the price of that other car...and wonder what else it needs. This one is done and ready. All four power windows also work great, as do all gauges. Car never even thinks about running hot; the gauge stays below the middle of the range in all types of service, even L.A. traffic in hot 90 degree days with the air conditioner blowing cool air to the cabin. It is a very nice driver!

Mechanically the car had the factory recommended reinforcement of the differential mounting done, and this car has the desireable Getrag 5 speed that must be the silkiest and most enjoyable gearbox I have ever used. In the past year I replaced the radiator, radiator fan, all hoses and belts, rebuilt injectors and air valves, and all of the fussy and impossible to find fuel injection hoses and factory plenum chamber hoses which make this car not only pass its strict California emissions with ease, but it runs smooth and strong. The engine and drivetrain of this car are outstanding and need nothing but a driver to enjoy them. The troublesome metric wheels have been replaced with the very desireable specified replacement beautiful BBS wheel set, and have good tread on a set of Kumho performance radials. The sound system is a cassette stereo that fits the dash nicely, and the original BMW unit is also included, recently found online and I have not tested it but was told all including cassette worked. The original plugs and wiring were not disturbed so the factory radio should be a drop in . This car has never been rusty or wrecked, with one very minor collision to the left rear way back in 1996 and repaired so well it is undetectable (see auto check). It has all of its original comprehensive onboard tool kit and factory jack, and it presents, looks, and drives like it was meant to while looking better than any other 633 you will find. The kicker is this car is being sold with NO RESERVE. The highest bidder will own this car and will be thrilled from the first drive and for many years to come. I encourage any inspection of this superb vehicle by a knowledgeable inspection service, club or enthusiast representaive of the buyer. This car is the real thing, and please see my feedback as an ebay seller and buyer over 14 years who cares about quality and will make this a great experience for the buyer. We will help with cost effective shipping, free delivery to the shipper if needed, and delivery for cost of fuel and bus ticket within 300 miles of Los Angeles.(I would LOVE to drive this one last time and meet the new lucky owner. We will not end early and the car is not for sale locally. This is a real auction and the winner gets it. This is the one so put a bid down to win it.

BMW's EV tech is being used to resurrect the Karma

Tue, Apr 26 2016

Saying that luxury electric-vehicle manufacturer Fisker was beleaguered before its demise a few years back would be a gross understatement. But despite the cars self-immolating and Tesla CEO Elon Musk criticizing everything but the Karma's design, a Chinese auto parts manufacturer is resurrecting the brand under a different name: "Revero." That's according to a report from Wall Street Journal. Wanxiang Group is moving production to EV-hotbed California from Finland and will unveil its new ride either in July or August, but pricing hasn't been announced yet. The previous Karma sold for $100,000. Perhaps most interesting, though, is how it's going to address the reliability issues that plagued the company's predecessor. WSJ says that the automaker is licensing BMW's electric vehicle control and charging systems – a deal finalized last year. "There are huge, serious, major upgrades throughout the electronics systems, wiring, charging, battery," Karma's chief marketing officer Jim Taylor says. In terms of looks, though, it doesn't sound like you should expect anything to change in that department because the overhauls aren't going to be visible, according to Taylor. Wanxiang picked up Fisker's remains for $149 million a few years back. This deal is important, especially for BMW: If the German automaker's licensed tech can help Fisker outrun its smoky, checkered past, that's a high-profile win for everyone involved.

BMW i3 officially gets EPA-rated 81-mile range, delivered to first US customer

Sat, May 3 2014

It's official. The first U.S. BMW i3 customer is now happily zipping along somewhere in his new car. Or possibly staring lovingly at it in his garage – we're not sure which. That man, Tufts University professor and electric vehicle aficionado Charles Rabie, was handed the keys at the BMW of Boston dealership earlier today, thus beginning a flood of upcoming deliveries from the pool of hundreds currently awaiting for their owners at the Port Jersey Vehicle Distribution Center in Jersey City, NJ. And now, when Mr. Rabie sets off in his spiffy electric Bimmer, he'll know exactly how far the EPA thinks he can go on a full charge of its 22-kWh battery. Speaking with Dave Buchko from BMW Corporate Communications, we learned the government agency has given the i3 an official range rating of 81 miles. Efficiency-wise, that breaks down to 138 MPGe city, 111 hwy, and 124 combined for the city car. Of course, we don't expect the good professor to experience any difficulties dealing with the sub-100 mile range. As a former BMW ActiveE driver, he's had plenty of opportunity to become accustomed to the foibles (and advantages) of piloting a battery-powered vehicle. You can read our First Drive impression of the BMW i3 here. Scroll down for the official press release. BMW Delivers First All-Electric i3 in the U.S. Tufts University professor of practice Charles Rabie to receive the first U.S. BMW i3. Woodcliff Lake, NJ – May 2, 2014... Today, BMW delivered the first all-electric BMW i3 in the U.S. to Boston resident and Tufts University professor of practice Charles Rabie at the BMW of Boston dealership. Hundreds of BMW i3 vehicles are currently at U.S. facilities and ready to be delivered to customers nationwide, ushering in a new era of electromobility. Rabie is an electric vehicle advocate and has been driving the BMW ActiveE since 2012. Also among this first group set to receive a BMW i3 is Los Angeles-based former E! Entertainment leading correspondent Ashlan Gorse Cousteau, married to renowned documentary filmmaker and environmentalist Philippe Cousteau, grandson of Jacques Cousteau. "Today marks a big day at BMW of North America - What started out as a dream for an innovative sustainable vehicle under the BMW i brand can now be found on streets across the U.S.," said Ludwig Willisch, President & CEO, BMW of North America. The BMW i3 is the first of the BMW i vehicles constructed from the ground up primarily of carbon fiber to enter the U.S. market.

Bristol returning under BMW power

Thu, Jun 4 2015

BMW has had its hand in reviving once-great British automakers, and now its playing its part in the rebirth of another. That marque is Bristol Cars, the automotive offshoot of the Bristol Aeroplane Company. Bristol hand-made luxury sports cars between 1945 and 2011 when it went belly-up, and ever since there's been an effort to bring it back. That effort is now picking up steam, and is set to launch later this year – marking the 70th anniversary of the marque's founding. It's tentatively known as Project Pinnacle, and while future versions are slated to pack plug-in hybrid power developed in collaboration with Bristol's sister company Frazer-Nash (which is now focused on battery technology), the first new Bristol in a dozen years is slated to pack BMW power. Details accompanying the announcement below are few and far between, but one way or another, it won't be the first time BMW will have played a part in breathing new life into a British automaker. The Bavarian company of course revived Mini, and made Rolls-Royce what it is today, but was also was briefly the custodian of Rover, Land Rover and Bentley, and has been linked to a potential (if unrealized) effort to bring back Triumph. Its role in Bristol's rebirth under Project Pinnacle may be less involved than all of those, but at very least we'll know that the new British GT will have a proper engine under the hood. BRISTOL CARS CONFIRMS POWERTRAIN FOR 70th ANNIVERSARY PROJECT PINNACLE • First new Bristol car in more than a decade to feature BMW powerplant • High performance powertrain earmarks resumption of the history between Bristol, Frazer-Nash and BMW dating back to 1930s London, England, June 2015 – Iconic British carmaker, Bristol Cars, makes the second in a series of announcements today about its first new car in more than a decade, codenamed Project Pinnacle. Project Pinnacle, which is set for launch later this year, will be a 70th anniversary celebration model, referencing Bristol Cars' rich heritage and executed as a modern take on the best of British craftsmanship, engineered to excite and satisfy as a high performance Bristol car. Bristol Cars is deeply proud to announce that the machinery underpinning this high performance new vehicle will be a BMW powerplant. The result will a sublime British sportscar with characteristics cultured uniquely for the first new Bristol since 2004.
