1988 E28 BMW M5 : RARE BLK/BLK




Here is a well-maintained, rust free 1988 E28 BMW M5. In 1988, the M5 was the world's fastest production sedan.  Based on the 535i chassis. it boasted a 256 Hp version of the M1 

power plant from BMW’s racing success.  Even today enthusiasts continue to rave about the purity of this machine’s tight performance.  Built between 11/86 and 11/87, only 1,370 of

these cars were sent to North America after being hand assembled at the BMW Motorsport facility in Germany(Out Of the 1,370 imported, roughly 500 are known to be in good shape).

 All came with a black exterior.  Almost all of these M5’s were available only with the Natural Tan leather interior. There were however, 30 sent to the USA with an interior of Buffalo 

leather in Black.

There is even a website just to verify and register these 30 prized collector vehicles.

During my ownership, I have done an exhaustive renewal of the front and rear suspension, fixed small oil leaks, did an overhaul of the AC system and an exterior and interior re freshening 

as outlined below. The end result is a car that looks as good as it drives and gets compliments everywhere you go. "IT'S A REAL HEAD-TURNER".

It has been Garaged this past 15 years. This car has been maintained to preserve its originality. I have most maintenance records from its most recent services. I have

 copies of the original bill of sale and all books. Everything in this car works FINE.

This car also comes with the worth of over $4000 parts, extra fluids, fuses, lamps, a car cover and plenty more.

BMW's Quandt family in hot water over Merkel campaign contributions

Sun, 20 Oct 2013

The mysterious and elusive Quandt family is in hot water again, nearly two years after its Nazi connections during World War II were exposed. The German family's patriarch, Herbert Quandt, nearly single-handedly saved BMW from being bought out by Daimler-Benz in 1959. Now, three living family members own nearly half of the German brand, and stand accused of buying votes with donations to the party of German Chancellor Angela Merkel, mere days ahead of a European Union vote that would cap vehicle emissions.
Merkel's conservative Christian Democratic Union accepted three donations, one from each shareholding member of the Quandt family.
Merkel's conservative Christian Democratic Union accepted three donations, one from each shareholding member of the Quandt family, totaling 690,000 euros ($935,000), on October 9. The CDU, for what it's worth, claim the donations weren't related to any political decisions and that the family have been donors for years. A Quandt family spokesperson, meanwhile, said that the family had been waiting for Germany's September 22 elections to pass before making a large contribution to the CDU.

Excavator in China bashes BMW and Jeep out of the way

Tue, Jun 2 2015

This Chinese construction site apparently has a zero tolerance policy towards obstacles getting in the way of work. When blocked by a Jeep and a BMW, the operator of this excavator pushes the two vehicles out of the way like they're toys. The Bimmer gets the brunt of the abuse, with the sedan getting lodged up against a fence. The exact context of this clip isn't entirely known, but The Mirror in Britain speculates the vehicles are illegally parked. But that doesn't explain why the excavator crashes through a gate later in the video. Also, this doesn't appear to be the case of a rogue operator taking out some frustrations, because a man with a walkie-talkie is leading the way and seemingly directing the destruction. Nonetheless, getting permission to knock these cars around was probably the highlight of this driver's day. News Source: The Mirror, AOL On BMW Jeep Crossover Videos Sedan

BMW 2 Series Convertible goes for a drive in the cold

Wed, 13 Feb 2013

The BMW 2 Series is the car that will eventually replace the 1 Series here in the United States (remember: the 1 Series moniker will live on to describe the hatchback models in other markets), and while we've seen the new coupe out on the prowl, we're now seeing the droptop version out on the road. We don't have much information about the new 2er models, only that they are expected to bow sometime in 2014.
Dimensionally, the new 2 Series convertible looks very similar in size to its outgoing 1 Series kin, with things like the roofline and roof shape looking nearly identical. Of course, reworked front and rear fascias are immediately noticeable, and judging by what little we can see, it appears as though the small BMW will take many of its design cues from the larger 3 Series rather than the oft-awkward-looking 1 Series hatch that's currently available in Europe.
Assuming things are still on track for 2014, we won't rule out a possible debut in Geneva, though the Frankfurt expo in September makes even more sense.
