Car is in excellent shape and has a reasonable 94k. very well built solid convertible, the Germans really know how to build a car. Mechanically awesome, just jump in and cruise your favorite Vista's. No warning lights, everything works, Ice cold a/c power top, top is in good condition. Has aftermarket DVD/Radio/USB/sd card capability. No body damage past less than normal wear and tear, interior really nice as well, no rips or tears. Has a couple nicks and such but you would expect more, the biggest is between the front intakes (see pic) Basically I am pointing out stuff that most people would just skip over in their description.
Spiffy 2.8 option fires right up runs and idles smooth, no hesitation or hiccups in the power band, way more fun than the anemic base engine. This car is surprisingly quick. No smoke at start up or while driving, check the youtube driving video, you can see how smooth the power delivery is no hesitation hiccups etc. I've put a piece of cardboard under the car, and had it running in the driveway for half an hour, then off for an hour before I pulled the CLEAN cardboard out from under it, no leaks.
Handles like BMW's are known to. Recent safety inspection/oil change and clean in and out. 5 speed trans shifts good with no clutch slippage, all gears work no grinding Real BMW's are manual. Lots of tread on all the tires, one had a plug in it so I replaced it with a new matching one. It has a front plate bracket, which I took off for pics, thats why it has the small holes in the front bumper, you of course get the bracket.
Very fun car to drive.

BMW 1 Series GT morphs into production-spec 225i Active Tourer
Mon, 16 Dec 2013Based on the effort - and money - BMW is spending to break off the coupes and convertibles in its lineup as even-numbered models (like the new 2 Series and 4 Series), we figured the production version of the 2012 Concept Active Tourer was a lock to wear the 1 Series GT name. These spy shots paint a different picture, however, as they show the car seemingly in full showroom-ready trim during a photo shoot, wearing the 225i name indicating that it will be in the 2 Series family.
While it's still very possible that this badging is the final bit of trickery for disguising the front-wheel-drive 1 Series GT, the hatchback itself appears to be the real deal. Aside from new fascias, a smaller grille and slightly different lights, the styling of this "225i" stayed pretty true to the Concept Active Tourer. Thanks to our long-lensed photographer, we also get a brief glimpse inside the hatchback, which reveals a two-tiered instrument panel layout including the free-standing navigation display that is similar to the concept car.
Regardless of what name this new model will wear, expect it to be unveiled at next year's Geneva Motor Show in March before arriving in the US sometime in 2015.
BMW 8 Series turns 25 [w/video]
Wed, 04 Jun 2014From the very beginning, the BMW 8 Series was a head turner. It was hardly a common sight in the first place, and the angular lines and low, pointed nose made the GT look like something special on the road. It's been 25 years since the Bavarian brand's flagship coupe of the '90s debuted, and owners celebrated the anniversary in style in Germany.
The 8 Series still looks great today, but its popup headlights give away its age a little. You just don't see them anymore. It was introduced at the 1989 Frankfurt Motor Show as the 850i with a 5.0-liter V12 under the hood capable of 295 horsepower and 332 pound-feet of torque. Later, even bigger V12s would find their way in there. Production lasted until 1999, but they were rather exclusive with 30,621 built in its lifetime.
To celebrate the anniversary, several BMW clubs organized 120 examples for display at the company's headquarters in Munich. The brand took advantage of the display to show off the ultimate 8 prototype as well. The one-off special packed a 550-horsepower V12 and a body with optimized aero. That engine eventually became the basis for the one in the McLaren F1.
BMW 4 Series configurator comes online
Mon, 08 Jul 2013The best money in the world might be configurator money - you never run out of it and you can never spend it the wrong way. We hope you're ready to dip into your configurator savings account, because it's time to start speccing out the 2014 BMW 4 Series, the coupe having just arrived in the virtual world.
There are four possible opening gambits: the 428i for $40,500, the 428i xDrive for $42,500, the 435i for $46,000 or the 435i xDrive for $48,000. After you've chosen your first move, there are three trim options: the $1,400 Luxury Line that features lots of chrome and wood (shown), the $1,700 Sport Line that adds lots of gloss black and contrasting trim color and stitching, or the $3,100 M Sport that offers the M Estoril Blue hue and lots of M-division specific accessories.
Starting with the 435i xDrive and M Sport, we then added items like the 19-inch wheels ($900), the Dynamic Handling Package ($1,000), Cold Weather Package ($700), Premium Package ($2,200), Tech Package ($3,150) and the Lighting Package ($1,900) on top of any other box we could check. The total, after the $925 destination and handling charge: $66,749.
