Sioux City, Iowa, United States
I am relisting this item. Due to the fact that the last "winning" bidder did not pay: PLEASE DO NOT BID ON THIS ITEM UNLESS YOU HAVE COMPLETED A MINIMUM OF 50 EBAY TRANSACTIONS AND HAVE A 100% RATING
Here we have a barn fresh BMW (Last driven/licensed in 2005) The color currently is the classic Alpen Weiss, but was originally the Inka Orange. The car was originally from California, but came to the Midwest in the late 80's with it's current owner. Even though the car hasn't regularly in a long while, but we got it running in short order. I drove the car on the back highways to my home 35 miles at 55-60 miles an hour. I think it runs great, it does need some work of course, but I was really impressed. It starts up immediately, but there is a weeping at the top of the radiator, also the transmission seems alright although the linkage is weird/loose. The blower motor works kind of, it's slow but turens, and the wiper motor seems locked up. I know that those are not major concerns, but you need to know. The body is in need of some help, the rocker panels as you can see from the photos are pretty much shot, but the floor pans are surprisingly solid looking. The rear passenger fender and door is rough. The interior is overall solid but the front seats could use a covering and the dash is cracked. Over all this car is would be a good candidate for restoration, or at least a good parts car. If you have any questions or would like to see some specific photos please email Communication is important, so I would like to winning bidder to contact me and keep me informed on car pick up/shipping arrangements Winning bidder must pay $100 deposit with in 72 hours and the remainder with in 7 days Winning bidder is responsible for pick up/shipping. I would be willing to drive the car within a 90 mile radius from Sioux City Iowa for a fee. |

Husqvarna sold to KTM CEO Stefan Pierer
Fri, 01 Feb 2013A couple of days ago the UK's Motorcycle News reported that BMW was in the final stages of selling Husqvarna to KTM, with a deal potentially confirmed as soon as this week. Following that came reports that Husqvarna Motorcycles wasn't sold to KTM but to a Pierer Industries, the company owned by KTM CEO Stefan Pierer. Turns out the advance report was true, as was the follow-up: BMW has just announced a "strategic realignment" of its Motorrad division, explaining that it sold Husqvarna to Pierer Industries in order to focus on the urban and e-mobility segments. Husqvarna's off-road machines, obviously, don't fit into those categories.
BMW bought the Italian-based bike maker with centuries-old Swedish roots in 2007 - the rest of the Husqvarna company remains based in Sweden - and has invested huge sums to integrate the smaller company into the larger parent. Six years later, just when dividends should begin to truly pay off, the brand is sold.
Before BMW made its announcement, one of the theories that forum members put forward for Pierer's interest in purchasing Husqvarna was that he wants his own business to run his own way. The parent company of KTM, Cross Industries, is 47.27-percent owned by India's Bajaj Automotive, with Pierer the majority shareholder, and is on a quest for global growth, taking the fight to BMW in Europe and launching new bikes and technology into the Indian market. Compared to BMW's and KTM's 2012 sales of around 100,000 bikes each in 2012, Husqvarna sold 10,751 bikes, which was a 15.7-percent increase over the previous year. Pierer would have a lot more freedom in the running of a company of that size.
Audi S3 pitted against BMW M135i in track battle
Fri, 07 Mar 2014Audi and BMW have long been enemies on both the road and the track, with their respective M and S/RS lines duking it out to the delight of auto enthusiasts everywhere. In this video from Evo, two of the rivalry's newest combatants take to the track - the Audi S3 and the BMW M135i.
The new Audi S3, which is finally coming to America, throws down with a 2.0-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder. 290 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque are deployed to a Quattro all-wheel-drive system via a six-speed, S-Tronic dual-clutch transmission, allowing the five-door Audi to scamper to 60 in under five seconds.
The BMW, which Americans will know as a long-roof version of the new M235i Coupe, comes to the track with 320 ponies and 331 lb-ft of torque. That's a good bit more than the Audi, but the M135i has only two wheels to send its power to, an eight-speed single-clutch automatic (a six-speed manual is available) and a slightly higher curb weight.
BMW hires Ferrari chief engineer Fedeli
Wed, 08 Oct 2014There's going to be a little bit more Prancing Horse in some future BMWs because the Bavarian brand is hiring Ferrari chief engineer Roberto Fedeli to join the company in November. Fedeli's new position is still somewhat of a mystery though, and he reportedly might be lending his talents to the high performance M division or possibly even Rolls-Royce. When asked by Automotive News Europe, BMW said that it "currently can't say what his role will be."
Regardless of his new job, Fedeli was a big get for BMW because of his strong résumé. He has been with Ferrari since 1988 and led the engineering for the famous Italian automaker's vehicles since 2007. Fedeli tendered his resignation in September at around the same time that chairman Luca di Montezemolo announced his decision to leave the company. However, Ferrari told ANE that there was no connection between the two events.
