For auction is a 1974 BMW 2002Tii equipped with European Upgrades and Rare OEM Factory options. This car is a very quality driver, runs exceptionally strong, and handles very well. If you are looking for a $45K+ Garage Queen, this car is not for you. But if you're looking for a quality, well maintained and well sorted out car, then you've got the right one! The Previous Owner repainted back in 2001, the car's paint still presents well, it has been garaged kept. IMO, paint is 8.5 out of 10. The Dash has cracks, and Clock does not keep accurate time. I have ordered a Coverlay Dash Cap for the Dash. There is no signs of rust on Shock Towers, Floors, or Rocker Panels. Check out photos, "the Devil is in the Details"!  Here is a more detailed list of such parts: *Petri 38cm Factory Sport Steering Wheel. *Front & Rear European Chrome Bumper Conversion with OEM 73 Front Over-riders and Rear Euro Bumper Joiners. (Front Euro Bumper Conversion uses OEM Covers retrofitted to Cover Square Holes). (Rear Bumper Conversion uses a kit designed to mount into Big Bumper Shock holes, straight forward bolt-on conversion).  *OEM BMW Refurbished 2002/Tii Factory Alloys with new Tires, Centercaps, and Lug Nuts. *New Front Strut Brace on Front Towers. *Suspension Technique 22/19 Front & Rear Big Sway Bars. *Bilstein HD Struts/Shocks with Eibach Lowering Springs. *Carello 900 Fog Lamps, with Rechromed Housings. *Hella Rear Fog Lamp with OEM Factory Switch installed on Console. *Reupholstered Stock Tan Front & Rear Seats. *Uber Rare BMW Factory Stainless Steel Chips Guards. * BMW 2002/Tii Factory Tool Kit, First Aid Kit, and BMW 2002/Tii Factory Blue Binder Repair Manuals (Band 1 & 2). *Stahl Header with OEM Center Resonator, and New Factory 2002tii Rear Muffler. *Stainless Steel Anco Wiper Assemblies. New H4 Headlamps with New H4 Bulbs installed. Please view pictures to see for yourself. This is just a few of the coolest and rarest of parts added to this car, I'm sure I left something off. This car does not have any mixed-matched parts, only parts of the correct production year. Take into consideration what it would cost you to build this car, IMO over $30k, that's on the low end. All the hard work has been done, now bid, win, drive, and enjoy!!  I will answer all serious emails as accurately as possible. In my opinion, only thing I would do is add Euro Turn Signals,  btw BMW sent two Lefts, but Right side is on back order. I will add these two with vehicle purchase, and send correct side when buyer returns the 1 left side. Also, Big Bumpers are available with purchase, if buyer chooses to retain them, or have them shipped to final destination.  Please don't make unreasonable trade offers, or pfish for reserve price. Please bid what you think the car is worth. Thank you, this is a one of a kind Car!!! Additional photos available upon request. Good Luck, and Happy Bidding!

BMW to offer carbon fiber wheels in a year or two

Sun, 23 Feb 2014

The Citroën SM sat on the first set of production glass fiber and resin wheels in 1972 when parent company Michelin developed the exotic hoops in order to take the SM rallying. It wasn't until 2008 that we got the first all-carbon-fiber wheel for passenger cars in the form of a prototype model from Weds Sports in Japan that remained a prototype. Australian company Carbon Revolution followed that a year later with its CR-9 all-CF wheel, first introduced on the Shelby Ultimate Aero and now available for independent purchase for about $15,000 per set. BMW could be the first OEM to offer entire wheels in carbon fiber reinforced plastic in two years.
The wheels - either all-CFRP or using a CFRP rim and alloy spokes - were shown off during BMW's Innovation Days in Munich and are products of the development work done on its i-branded cars. The full-CFRP wheel is 35-percent lighter than a forged alloy wheel, the hybrid alloy and CFRP wheel is 25-percent lighter, making for a decent drop in unsprung rotating weight. As demonstrators during a tech day the wheels aren't yet in the pipeline for production and EU approval, but an article in Auto Express claims that they could be on the market as soon as two years from now.
Other possible parts include a full carbon fiber steering wheel and propeller shaft, the latter of which is coming as a single-piece component on the new M3 and M4. BMW is also talking up its use of secondary carbon fiber - waste material from i3 and i8 production - that can be used for items like IP support structures, seat frames and spare wheels in place of traditional metals like aluminum and magnesium. There's an excerpt of the Innovation Day press release below with more details.

BMW i5 could get Toyota-sourced hydrogen power

Tue, 18 Nov 2014

It'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 328d xDrive Sport Wagon

Fri, 11 Apr 2014

There's a running joke among auto writers that the perfect car would be a diesel-powered, rear-drive wagon with manual transmission and no power accessories whatsoever. It would only be available in brown and would somehow be as fun to drive as a Mazda MX-5 Miata. Makes total sense, right?
Realistically, no manufacturer is ever going to completely fulfill our wishes, no matter how much we beg, plead, kick and scream about our dream car that most of us would actually never buy. The best we can do is hope for a vehicle that mixes some aspects of this ideal journalist's car. And in today's world, that vehicle just might be the BMW 328d xDrive Sport Wagon.
No, it's not available with a manual gearbox, and power can only be sent through an xDrive all-wheel-drive system. It's also not available in brown (although both Mojave Metallic and Sparkling Bronze Metallic are acceptable stand-ins), but it ticks the two main boxes of being a diesel-powered wagon, one of only a couple such models in the United States.
