Cardiff by the Sea, California, United States

Up for sale is our BMW M6 European.This is a 140+ mph 1985 European version known as the M635csi.  The car was purchased by a customer of ours in the 90's in Georgia. We are mechanics and not car dealers.  He is a doctor and after storing the vehicle for 8 years, moved the car to San Diego. At that time the money was spent to register and smog the car in California. In 2011 over $2000 was spent on tune up parts as well as many items such as new brakes, battery etc. We have quite a bit of documentation on the maintenance of this vehicle.  It has been beautifully maintained and is a very reliable and clean car inside and out. Mechanically it is very sound, and could be a daily driver if that is desired. The car has current registration and a clear title in the state of California. The miles are at 146,185. The car is in remarkable condition. It is an original car.  We have found no rust on the vehicle, and as can be seen in the photos the interior is well preserved also.  The car is in great shape, but it is not a #1 car.

The paint shines well, the chrome and stainless shows well.  The headliner is in good condition, but a steam clean would freshen it up. The interior chrome and stainless steel pieces are in very good condition, showing little to no signs of age/wear.  The carpet is not faded, and is in excellent condition.  The overall condition is excellent, but there are a couple of areas to mention. The dash has a few common cracks, as evidenced by the pictures. The A/C system was redone and by the previous owner.  It needs to be charged as the car has been in storage for awhile.  The heat works well.  The tires have plenty of tread, but have some cracking due to the length of storage. They will need to be changed out in the near future.  All of the glass is in good condition.  The only exception is the front windshield, which has a small crack in the lower left corner. 
All of the power windows and power options are in good working condition. The car has power steering, power brakes, factory A/C and factory rear defrost.  

The car is in great shape, but it is not a #1 car.  It is a car that is in very good condition that is meant to drive.  You are bidding on a 28 year old vehicle!   Please ask any and all questions prior to bidding. This is a NO RESERVE auction, so bid to win!  $1500 non-refundable deposit due with in 48 hours of the close of the auction. Paypal is acceptable for the deposit. Cash, certified check of wire transfer for the balance is due with in 7 days of the close of the auction. Paypal may be used for the final payment IF the buyer is willing to pay Paypal fees.  Sold as is.  The vehicle is for sale locally and I reserve the right to sell it outside of the auction. I have the title in hand. Call or email with questions: 858-353-9959 or coachsremodel@gmail.com.  Thanks for looking and good luck bidding.

2014 BMW Z4 sDrive35is

Tue, 14 May 2013

The BMW Z3/Z4 roadster has never really had a widespread following because it has either been too humble and small a roadster (albeit with some fun and very low-volume M editions) or it has been - in this E89 generation - too casual an image leader with no racier aspirations. The current 480-hp Z4 GTEs don't count, since they are as stock a Z4 as today's Pamela Anderson is the same blonde actress we knew as Heidi on Home Improvement. You know, sort of like those ever-so-slightly modified Toyota Camry coupes competing in NASCAR.
The ultimate highpoint for the BMW Z roadster franchise was at the very start of its life in the mid-90s, in the James Bond film GoldenEye with Pierce Brosnan. The Stinger missiles that Q's team installed behind the Z3's headlights were never fired, and BMW never even offered this self-defense package as an option. Yet another case of the ol' bait and switch.
And in all these subsequent years of Z3s and Z4s strutting their long-hooded stuff, the little sporting Bimmer could really have used a live Stinger missile or two to spice things up. The current Z4 exists, it is pretty dang sexy, and BMW seems content to let it linger there. We just drove the new midlife version of the roadster near BMW headquarters in Munich, and it served to reinforce our feelings.

Tier 1 suppliers call GM the worst OEM to work with

Mon, 12 May 2014

Among automakers with a big US presence, General Motors is the worst to work for, according to a new survey from Tier 1 automotive suppliers, conducted by Planning Perspectives, Inc.
The Detroit-based manufacturer, which has been under fire following the ignition switch recall and its accompanying scandal, finished behind six other automakers with big US manufacturing operations. Suppliers had issues with trust and communications, as well as intellectual property protection. GM was also the least likely to allow suppliers to raise their prices in the face of unexpected increases in material cost, all of which contributed to 55 percent of suppliers saying their relationship with GM was "poor to very poor."
GM's cross-town competitors didn't fare much better. Chrysler finished in fifth place, ahead of GM and behind Dearborn-based Ford, which was passed for third place this year by Nissan. Toyota took the top marks, while Honda captured second place.

2014 BMW 328d ready to burn oil in just four cylinders

Thu, 28 Mar 2013

Despite showing off the new 328d sedan in New Jersey yesterday, BMW though it only fair to bring the first four-cylinder diesel it will ever sell in the US to the New York Auto Show today as well. Unfortunately, the company remains vague about pertinent details like fuel economy and price, but we did hear again that the oil-burner will be capable of getting 45 miles per gallon on the highway. BMW's Oliver Ganser told AutoblogGreen, "We do not want to give out" the city or combined mpg ratings quite yet, but The New York Times got someone to estimate a fuel economy of mid-30s in the city.
The two-liter TwinPower turbocharged and direct injected engine and eight-speed automatic transmission (sorry, no manual will be available) put out 180 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque and should get the 328d up to 60 miles per hour in just over seven seconds. As we noted earlier, the 328d will be available with every option and trim level - like all-wheel drive - that other 3 Series models have in the US (transmission excepted) and should start at under $40,000 when it goes on sale this fall.
Officially, the 328b will be able to accept biodiesel blends up to B5 (or, just maybe B7), which is standard diesel with five (seven) percent biofuel. Read more about that and other aspects of the 328d here.
