What we have here is a 1991 BMW 850i, white coupe with a 5.0 V12 engine and automatic transmission. This vehicle sold for nearly $100,000 when new, and is one of the top-of-the-line BMWs. It is a very good looking car, and it loves to run fast. It is fitted with low-profile wheels and tires which make it look that much better.
Hemmings' Sports and Exotic Car magazine recently did a Buyer's Guide article on its little brother, the 840i; check it out here: http://www.hemmings.com/hsx/stories/2013/02/01/hmn_buyers_guide1.html
I really hate to sell this one but you can't keep 'em all.
THE GOOD: V12, looks hot, drives great. Transmission was gone through just before I got the car. All the paper is with the car. Odometer shows 154,000 miles. Also, this car is a certified chick magnet. Really, I had a good-looking girl getting up in the thing within minutes of my buying it. (Your mileage may vary.)
THE BAD: Crack in lower right back glass. Nothing in center stack works. Speedometer doesn't work.
THE UGLY: Buyer responsible for all taxes. Vehicle is to be picked up at our location. No warranty expressed or implied. Vehicle for sale locally, so I may end this listing if I sell the vehicle here or just decide I can't go through with selling it.
If you would like more info, contact us at the "ask a question" link up there at the top. You are welcome to stop by and check it out, or just visit. We are located one mile off I-16 right smack dab in the middle of Georgia.
If, by any chance, this is not the vehicle you are looking for, or you need parts or service, contact us at the "ask a question" link above. If we don't have what you are looking for, we will be more than happy to try to find it for you.
Thanks for looking,

BMW 3 Series eDrive plug-in hybrid spotted in development
Thu, 06 Feb 2014BMW has shown its commitment to the development of hybrid and electric powertrains in recent years, with vehicles in its ActiveHybrid range, electrics like its BMW ActiveE and range-extended EVs like the i3 and i8. Plug-in hybrid-electric vehicles are clearly top-of-mind for the German automaker. We saw spy shots of the PHEV BMW X5 eDrive prototypes about a year ago, and now our shooters have come through with a 3 Series-bodied version of the technology, as well.
In addition to the obvious "Hybrid Test Vehicle" designation you see on the bodysides of this 3er, we also note that a second 'fuel cap' - presumably hiding the electric charge point - is in evidence. It's a fairly safe assumption that this 3 Series is making use of the same turbocharged four-cylinder engine and electric motor configuration that the X5 eDrive used. In the case of the X5, that meant a top electric-only speed of 75 miles per hour, with a range of just under 20 miles, and 0-62 mph in under 7 seconds. With considerably lighter, compact sedan bodywork clothing the PHEV drivetrain, we'd guess that the 3 Series eDrive could improve on each of those numbers.
BMW i3 to be priced around $40,000
Mon, 06 May 2013According to Automotive News, the BMW i3 electric hatchback will likely be priced around $40,000, or similar to that of a well-equipped 3 Series sedan, when it goes on sale later this year. This information was revealed during an interview where AN spoke to Ludwig Willisch, CEO of BMW North America. The i3 will likely qualify for a $7,500 tax credit from the US federal government, though AN reports that a BMW spokesperson could not confirm this just yet.
In addition to the all-electric i3, BMW will offer a range-extended version that uses a 0.65-liter two-cylinder motorcycle engine and auxiliary generator to charge the car's battery on the go. Automotive News says pricing for this model is still unclear, as is whether or not the range-extended i3 will be eligible for the $7,500 tax credit. Of course, buyers needing a vehicle for longer trips will be able to borrow one from the automaker.
Automotive News also reports that the majority of BMW's 338 dealers in the United States will be able to sell the i3, as well as the upcoming i8 hybrid sports car. Dealerships have until June of this year to opt out of this program, however.
BMW 02 Series mini-documentary makes us fall in love all over again
Sun, 24 Mar 2013BMW's current reputation of building Ultimate Driving Machines can be traced back through history all the way to 1966, when the German automaker introduced the world to its 1600-2 two-door at the Geneva Motor Show. The car's name was simplified in 1971 to BMW 1602, and it went on to spawn the 2002, one of the most famous BMW models of all time.
BMW looks back on its past successes in a video that you can see below. As the automaker itself says in the video description, "This series was extraordinarily successful in reinterpreting the concept of the sports saloon and played a major role in motor sport long after production had come to an end." The 2002 would be replaced in 1975 by another legendary model from BMW: the 3 Series.
We'd be lying if we said we didn't long for something along the lines of the classic 2002 from BMW today. Since that doesn't seem likely to happen anytime soon, join us in remembering the cars that helped make BMW a household name by scrolling down below.
