Very Special 1985 BMW 735i
The car has essentially been in one family since new. I bought the car from this family several months ago. It is reluctantly for sale as I have too many cars. It was bought new by a gentleman as a retirement gift to himself in ‘85. He owned it until ‘96, and then handed it down to his son. It has always been garaged and covered. It has never been in an accident. It passed California’s smog test with flying colors, 1 month ago, with a performance chip installed. The registration is current and it the title is in my name.
It has been conscientiously maintained over its 176k miles. I have the owner’s manual, brochure and 27 years of service receipts! Only OEM maintenance items have been used to ensure factory-correct performance. Only high-quality fluids have been used such as Mobil 1 synthetic for engine, Redline for transmission/differential, ATE Blue/Gold for brakes, and BMW coolant. This is a beautiful, carefully built car and is an unbeatable value for a BMW enthusiast.
Recent maintenance done:
tranny fluid, diff fluid, clutch fluid, PS fluid, coolant, oil & filter, spark plugs, air filter, fuel filter, HVAC repair (cold AC!!!), v-belts, engine mounts and a new brake hydrobooster.
These models are disappearing fast and I feel it’s important that this very special car goes to someone who can appreciate the car for what it is. It would be very expensive to build a car like this today.
Here is a list of changes made to improve performance, drivability and aesthetics:
Suspension:
Custom-valved Bilstein shocks/struts and H&R sport springs
OEM front swaybar w/ urethane bushings, rear adjustable 19mm swaybar with urethane bushings
Dinan fixed front camber plates
Dinan rear adjustable (for camber) subframe
Hartge front strut brace
Engine: stock with E.A.T. performance chip. The stock chip is also included.
Exhaust: B&B Tri-flow cat-back exhaust; original catalytic converter
Mechanicals:
Getrag 260/5-speed manual transmission by Jim Blanton of PerformanceGearing.com
M5 clutch plate and disc
3.91 limited-slip differential with 50% lock also by Jim Blanton of PerformanceGearing.com
UUC short shifter providing crisp, definitive shifts
Wheels: 245/40-17 Sumitomo HTRZ-III tires on 17x8.5 BBS RC wheels. The RCs are discontinued, lightweight wheels that weigh around 17.5 lbs. each.
Brakes:
Porterfield R4-S street pads that are no dust, no noise and have high heat capacity producing far better performance than OEM or Metal Masters
BMP stainless steel brake lines
Exterior:
New paint in 2008 in the original Bronzit-beige; there are no discernable scratches
All body panels are straight and true with only one minor PDR-able dimple on the passenger-side front fender, as well as a very light scratch next to the driver's side front turn signal, which I have pictured.
European bumpers and front valence and rear OEM spoiler
Cibie low beam headlights from Daniel Stern lighting
Interior:
Cobra Daytona sport seats – fully adjustable for recline with great lateral support; much more comfortable than OEM
Momo steering wheel – smaller than stock and provides greater steering input with less motion. An immaculate, leather wrapped stock steering wheel is also included in sale.
OBC works
Factory tool-kit included, complete with RED SCREWDRIVER is installed in rear trunk-lid.
Items needing attention: Cruise control lever is floppy, but still works. There is a slight leak in the power steering that has recently come to my attention. There are several small crack on the dash.

BMW tests M Lap Timer App with M4 Coupe at Brands Hatch
Fri, 21 Mar 2014The 2015 BMW M4 looks to include all the necessary ingredients to offer dynamite driving experience. It's an M car after all. But in today's constantly connected world, the experience of hurtling a car around a track isn't always enough.
We want data, and while there are some solid telemetry apps available for smartphones (notably Harry's GPS LapTimer), manufacturers have been a bit slower to develop their own dedicated mobile telemetry trackers for their performance cars. With the new M4, though, BMW is taking the plunge, allowing drivers to track their lap progress through a new app, creatively called the M Lap Timer.
To show off the program, BMW has recruited touring car racer Andy Priaulx to perform a fast lap in an M4 at the UK's Brands Hatch circuit. The accompanying video doesn't do much to show off the app in action. Rather, it give us a stylized look at the metrics as Priaulx hustles BMW's hottest 4 Series coupe around the circuit.
Watch two championship-winning DTM cars from BMW go head-to-head
Mon, 06 May 2013BMW recently had a little fun with two of the company's past DTM champions. Roberto Ravaglia and Bruno Spengler, winners of the 1989 and 2012 championships, respectively, both showed up at the world-famous Hockenheimring with their title-winning cars. The two swapped seats, with Ravaglia taking the helm of Spengler's BMW M3 DTM racer and Spengler sliding behind the wheel of Ravaglia's first-generation M3 racer in the classic BMW Bank livery, and headed for the track. Spengler got a 23 second head start in the first-gen M3 with Ravaglia chasing behind.
It didn't take long for the older hotshoe to sort out his new ride and close the gap. The short clip below follows the two as they make their way around the circuit, but the really interesting portion comes when the pair begin discussing what they like and don't like about each other's machines. You can check out the full video below for yourself.
2014 BMW M6 Gran Coupe
Wed, 08 May 2013Is This A Great Idea For An M Model?
The BMW 6 Series Gran Coupe is already an issue of large debate. The essential business case for the car is that it's more distinctive than a straight 5 or 6 Series, and has much of the sense of space and luxury of a 7 Series. It has the wheelbase of a 5 Series, the relative width of a 6 Series, and an exterior length close to the standard wheelbase 7 Series. And, as we reported in our drive of the 640i Gran Coupe in May 2012, the 6 Series Gran Coupe costs pretty much the same as the 7 Series, engine trim for engine trim. The sedan (coupe?) is therefore a proposal clearly meant for an extremely particular clientele. There's no news yet on how well exactly the 6 Series Gran Coupe is selling in its chief markets, but we are curious. The Germans frequently tend not to break out their sales figures that way, mixing sales of the Gran Coupe in with the two-door 6 Series.
And, so, we have now arrived at the inevitable point where the M version must be introduced. Say howdy to the $113,000 2014 BMW M6 Gran Coupe (actually $115,195 for starters with all of the taxes added). That's $4,650 more than the also highly priced M6 coupe. Let the vehement debates begin. The upcoming 2014 Audi RS7 should be priced right at this level as well, and the Mercedes-Benz CLS63 AMG (perhaps with an S iteration in the next allotment we get Stateside) should go for roughly the same.
