NO SMOG REQUIRED!!! These round taillight BMW's are becoming harder and harder to find, especially non-modified. 1969 was always one of my favorite year cars for almost any brand, but especially BMW. This model has the flush turn signals, the motors were built without all the smog BS, has the small bumpers and they just always seemed to run stronger than the later motors. It does have a Weber Carburator and an aftermarket air cleaner. Battery has been relocated to trunk but other than that it is original. The interior front and back seats have been replaced with period correct seats. They are a blue instead of black that actually matches the cars Atlantik paint better. It has a nice patina on the re-spray with the factory color, it looks like it was re-sprayed a while back.
The title unfortunately is a Salvage Title. Where this normally might raise some questions or scare some people away, I could not find any major damage to this care. I have had it looked at by an independent BMW shop and put it on a lift to look for where the damage was. The frame looks unaffected. These cars did not hold value that much through the 90's and a simple fender bender would total it. I think the minor damage was below the front bumper. All has been professionally fixed to high standards. The motor is still the original numbers matching, please see pics. I would suggest you don't take my word for it but feel free to come view this car prior to purchase to ease any concerns regarding the Salvage Title. This will not affect you too much other than resale. If you are not planning on reselling and will be enjoying this beauty yourself, as long as you feel comfortable with the work then you are good to go. Any major damage would have affected sub frame and definitely not allowed the original motor to survive and still run strong. It runs and shifts though all the gears fine. Will need rear brakes soon, you can drive it home anywhere in LA or Orange County and feel comfortable. I am hoping whoever buys this keeps it original. Just rebuild the motor down the road and keep the mechanicals up. As you can see from the pictures everything is there. Badges, trim, hub caps, dash only has one small crack on lower portion, original steering wheel, just a cool example of how these came off the factory floor in Germany in the late sixties. Will qualify for a Black Plate but I do not have original. This belonged to a Published Author and I had intentions of restoring myself but two other projects got in the way and parking it is getting to be a problem.
I have set a very low reserve so please bid with confidence. I have the title in hand. I think it is very reasonable considering the circumstances. This will be a fun project for somebody. Restored bone stock 2002's are going north of $20,000 now and are getting more respect and comments than the modified 2002's which have been done to death with almost every mod thinkable. It is nice to see these untouched still. Has surface rust in areas, all the shock towers and all that are in good shape, just the underside where the spare was is pretty much gone. True milage is unknown, it shows around 80,000. It could be original, doubt it, could be 180,000+ or 280,000+. Either way you have the original block that is still driving to this day, so please rebuild this original motor when you decide to do something like that and DO NOT OPT for a SWAP.

BMW i5 could get Toyota-sourced hydrogen power
Tue, 18 Nov 2014It's starting to feel like the automotive landscape is right on the cusp of a boom in hydrogen-fueled vehicles. After all, the Toyota FCV is nearly ready, Volkswagen is readying a fuel cell concept for this week's Los Angeles Auto Show and Hyundai already sells its Tucson Fuel Cell. The next big name to add to that list might be BMW, as the company's co-development deal with Toyota starts to bear fruit.
According to Autocar, BMW may use a version of the fuel cell system from the Toyota FCV in the future i5. As part of its eco-oriented i sub-brand, the i5 is expected to be a stretched version of the i3 (pictured above) with extra rear legroom and cargo space. It's unclear at the moment whether a battery-powered pure electric powertrain will also be available. If accurate, then the rumor could give the Bavarian brand a counterattack against Mercedes-Benz' planned fuel cell vehicle in 2017.
BMW and Toyota first signed the memorandum of understanding to co-develop fuel cells, lightweight technology and a sports car back in 2012, and they made the arrangement official in late 2013. So far, few details on the progress of the work have been disclosed, but the performance model has been rumored to use a front-engine, all-wheel drive layout with supercapacitors.
2014 BMW 740Ld xDrive does diesel in a big way
Thu, 06 Feb 2014Slowly but surely, BMW is expanding its lineup of diesel-powered models here in the United States. In addition to the 328d sedan and wagon, 535d sedan and X5 xDrive35d crossover, we now have this, the BMW 740Ld xDrive (not to mention the refreshed 2015 X3 xDrive28d that also makes its debut here in Chicago). As its name - and the photos above - suggest, this means BMW is offering diesel power in its flagship, long-wheelbase 7 Series sedan, set to directly compete with the likes of the excellent Audi A8 TDI.
Under the hood is BMW's familiar 3.0-liter turbocharged diesel inline-six, delivering 255 horsepower and 413 pound-feet of torque, all of which is sent to the road via the company's xDrive all-wheel-drive system and ZF eight-speed automatic transmission. That torque thrust is available straight away from 1,500 rpm, and BMW says the 740Ld xDrive will sprint to 60 miles per hour in a very respectable 6.1 seconds. Official fuel economy estimates haven't been released yet, but we expect the car to net highway fuel economy ratings in the mid-30 range.
The 740Ld xDrive arrives in BMW showrooms this spring, priced from $82,500, not including $925 for destination. We're pretty stoked to drive it. But in the meantime, have a look at fresh images of the big sedan live from the Chicago Auto Show, above.
Why BMW doesn't plan to integrate Apple's iOS in the Car
Wed, 12 Jun 2013While watching Apple introduce iOS in the Car during its WWDC keynote on Monday, we wondered how automakers, even the 14 who've already signed up to integrate this new in-car functionality of iOS 7, will feel about having the Cupertino company's mobile operating system supplant their own in-car systems. After all, some OEMs like Ford, General Motors and many luxury automakers have sunk millions of dollars into developing their own advanced infotainment, navigation and communication platforms like MyFord Touch, CUE and older systems like iDrive.
One automaker has now spoken up. A BMW spokeperson was interviewed by someone in the news department of British auto dealer group Arnold Clark and confirmed that the company would not be getting in line to integrate iOS in the Car anytime soon. The reason, as we suspected, is that BMW believes its own products developed over the last decade are both plenty good and already so deeply integrated with other systems of the car that, as told to Arnold Clark, "it would not be that straightforward to start changing all of the architecture of a car as has been implied [by Apple]."
While BMW isn't interested in spending more money to integrate Apple's services and functionality over its own, it has spent a good bit already to integrate iPhone functionality in its cars, including the relatively rare ability to support iPod Out and display Apple's own interface on Mini models with the optional Mini Connected feature, as well as committing to integrate Siri 'Eyes Free' functionality.
