This is a 1988 BMW 635CSi complete with what is believed to be, every component necessary to perform a manual transmission conversion (transmission, center console, pedals, etc.). My father purchased this car several years ago with the intent to perform the conversion, but never had the time to complete it. Since being purchasing, the car has seen little use and has been regularly garaged. The car was purchased from the widow of an avid 6-series fanatic who intended on performing the conversion but sadly passed away before getting the chance. Due to the unfortunate circumstances, not much is known about the car, and we have little service history for it.

Exterior: The car is finished in a beautiful light blue metallic, known as Cirrus Blue. The paint contains some blemishes and scratches, and there is some fading on the vinyl and rubber components, but overall the exterior of the car is very presentable.

Interior: Lotus White, is the name of the leather interior the car carries. For being white, the leather is in decent shape – granted certainly not brand new condition. There are blemishes and marks, as you would expect with a vehicle of this age finished in this color of interior, but I believe a thorough detail would do wonders.

Mechanical: The car runs and drives well. There are no known major issues, but I would suggest that the new buyer have the car serviced, as it has had little use in the last few years. The tires will also need to be replaced in the near future.

This is a car in need of TLC that we unfortunately do not have the time to give it. That being said, it runs nicely and could certainly be a fun car for the right person. Included with the sale are all of the items you see in the last photo; manual gearbox, differential, bell-housing, interior components, etc. 

I am not attempting to mis-represent the car and it comes with no warranties or guarantees. It is sold "as is" I am not familiar with 6'ers and I am not looking to mislead anyone as their may be some details I have overlooked. We would just like the car to go a an owner that will give it the attention it deserves. 

I can help coordinate domestic shipping, and for appointments to view the car please message me.

PLEASE, DO NOT BID IF YOU ARE NOT PREPARED TO PURCHASE THE CAR!

Honda scores big in Automobile Advertising of the Year Awards [w/videos]

Wed, 15 Jan 2014

This year the Detroit Auto Show didn't just celebrate the automobile, it celebrated how we find out about the automobile, too. Partnering The One Club, this year introduced the 2014 One Show Automobile Advertising of the Year Award to Cobo Hall, celebrating winners in five different categories of advertising: broadcast television, online, interactive, experiential, and print/outdoor. Winners in those categories were judged by 50 creative directors and journalists, while a Public Choice category was chosen from among nearly 20,000 online votes.
Honda walked off with three of the six awards, its Hands spot taking Broadcast honors, its Sound of Honda getting the Online category and Illusions winning Public Choice. Hyundai made the grade in Interactive with Driveway Decision Maker, Fiat captured Print/Outdoor with its "Letters" ad, and Toyota's Tundra Endeavor Campaign spot and BMW's A Window into the Near Future were co-winners for Experiential.
You can watch all of the press release and winning videos below or check out all of the finalists, announced last month, for a refresher.

BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe blows the doors back on [w/video]

Tue, 04 Mar 2014

BMW sure seems to take pleasure in confusing the hell out of us. It used to be pretty simple: if you wanted a compact Bimmer, you had to look no further than the 3 Series. Then it was just a matter of which bodystyle you wanted. But the smaller end of BMW's lineup has gotten more complicated lately. Never mind the 1 Series and 2 Series (in their various iterations) that have slotted in below it - now the 3 Series has been split in two: Want a four-door, get the new 3 Series. Want a two-door, the 4 Series is your address. Right?
Almost. Because now there's a 4 Series Gran Coupe that keeps the two-door's roofline (or some approximation of it) but adds an extra set of doors in the back, thereby bridging the gap between the 3 Series sedan and 4 Series coupe. And it's just made its public debut here at the Geneva Motor Show.
The difference between this and the two-door 4 Series is plain to see: it's got two extra doors. But what's the difference between this and the 3 Series sedan? About two or three grand, to start with - depending on which version (428i Gran Coupe or 435i Gran Coupe) you choose. But it's also sleeker, more muscular and altogether that extra bit sexier. Which is a good trait, as you can see from our gallery of live shots above, to have in your European sports sedan, coupe, or whatever you want to call it.

2015 BMW X4

Tue, 27 May 2014

BMW has been in the line-blurring business of late, with the original X5 "Sports Activity Vehicle" muddling the line between SUVs and sport sedans in 1999, the 5 Series Gran Turismo challenging what our definition of "Gran Turismo" means in 2009, and pretty, low-roofed four-doors like the 6 Series Gran Coupe and the fresh new 4 Series Gran Coupe broadening the meaning of the word "coupe."
In the midst of all of this, BMW blurred the lines around both the SUV and coupe genres with its big, heavy, and in many ways ridiculous X5-based "Sports Activity Coupe" (cue collective eye-roll), dubbed X6. Auto wags scoffed at its lack of utility, compromised outward visibility and added cost, but a more emotional public was apparently smitten enough by its aggressive looks to avail itself of some 250,000 of them worldwide in six model years on sale.
Enter the all-new 2015 X4 crossover - err, "Sports Activity Coupe" - which BMW hopes will perform as well in the compact category as the X6 has on the next rung up the ladder. Like the X6, the X4 is a tough sell on paper: it's more expensive and less practical than the X3 on which it's based; it's heavier, despite the loss of interior space; and it doesn't even hold as much stuff in the back as the 3 Series wagon. As with the X6, the X4 is essentially a high-riding style statement that, like proper coupes (the two-door kind), says to the world, "You fools can take your need for practicality and shove it. I just want to look good."
