THIS IS A NO RESERVE AUCTION, PLEASE BE PREPARED TO PAY IF YOU BID!

Up for sale is my 1988 M6.  I am the 3rd owner and have owned this car for about 8 years.  I originally bought this beautiful car as I was lucky to find an original Texas car that was very well cared for, in great shape, and very important had all of the service records since new.  I have the original window sticker and dealer invoice as well as the certification from BMW Group Classic Archives-Munich Germany.

Shortly after I bought the car I started to de-cosmoline & clean up the engine bay and that turned into a full cosmetic restoration.  I went through just about everything and either replaced, re-plated, or powder coated all parts.  Here is some of what has been done:

ENGINE:
  • Removed all cosmoline from engine bay.
  • Replaced all hoses; power steering, heater, fuel lines, etc.  All replacement parts are OEM BMW down to the hose clamps.  I also had the air box, valve cover & air plenum soda blasted and powdercoated.
  • Replaced coolant resevoir/cap & washer resevoir/cap along with new windshield washer lines and clamps.
  • Mechanical work included fresh oil & filter, new power steering fluid & filter, flush and refill coolant (OEM BMW), checked valve lash (All within spec).
  • Very rare, impossible to find new original black Purolator air filter, shown in the pictures.  
BODY:
  • This is an original TX car which, to my knowledge, has always been garaged and never smoked in.  I have never driven it in the rain.  There is absolutely no rust and the paint is in excellent condition with just a few nits and picks around the gorgeous body.  No accidents or body work, however the previous owner had the front airdam and hood repainted due to stone chips.  The repaint looks excellent and is two stage with clear coat.
INTERIOR:
  • The interior was in excellent condition when I bought it with only some minor wear on the drivers seat.  The original dash is in excellent condition with no cracks.  The rear deck & speaker pods are also in excellent condition with no warping.  There are only slight signs of wear on the front drivers seat and there is a small tear on the drivers side door armrest.  The rest of the interior is in immaculate condition.
  • I replaced the original airbag steering wheel with a period correct and much better looking M-Tech II 385mm wheel (I have the original steering wheel which will go to the new owner).  Also, I added a euro ashtray delete/storage tray (I have the original ashtray which will go with the car).
DRIVETRAIN:
  • The drivetrain is in excellent condition with a smooth shifting Getrag 280 5 speed and limited slip differential.  Trans. & Diff. fluid is fresh with Redline oils.  New clutch and Auto Solutions shift kit (reduces throw distance by about 30%).
SUSPENSION & STEERING:
  • Completely gone through.  Front suspension has new upper & lower control arms, center link, bushings and struts (Bilstein).  Also, the steering box was upgraded with Ed Reather's (M Wrench) steering box reinforcement kit professionally welded in.  Rear auto leveling suspension was rebuilt with new accumulators and lines and works perfect.  Originally I was going to delete the original self leveling rear suspension but the original SLS shocks were in great shape with no leaks so I kept it original.  I do however have a rear suspension SLS delete kit with M-Tech springs, Bilstein shocks, and hardware that will go to the new owner if he/she wants it.
  • Period correct and very rare BBS RS wheels in 16"x7" wrapped in Bridgestone Potenza RE750 225/50 tires.  The BBS's are show quality condition and the Bridgestones have less than 1,000 miles on them.  I also restored the original TRX wheels wrapped in the original style Michelin TRX GT tires (about 25% tread left) and these are included with the car to the new owner.
BRAKES:
  • Brakes have been freshened with new front rotors, Pagid pads and Stop Tech SS brake lines. Front calipers were rebuilt and re-plated in original cadmium plating.  Accumulator (AKA Brake Bomb) was replaced. Rear brakes are stock and in excellent condition.  
One note about the air conditioning.  It does work however, the coolant leaks out after about a month.  If I recharge it the vents blow @ 34 degrees but for full disclosure the system will need a going through.

So there you have it.  This has to be one of the best documented, cleanest, M6's in the country and is in excellent condition throughout.  I have all the receipts/service records and lots of the original parts and spares that will go to the new owner.  I have the clear TX title in hand.  This is a no reserve auction please be prepared to pay if you bid.  A $500 security deposit is required within 48 hours of auction end with the balance due within 72 hours of the auction end via cash or certified bank money order/cashiers check.  Buyer is responsible for shipping arrangements and I can offer limited assistance with meeting your shipper at my door. Please let me know if you have any questions and good luck!

Chevy Traverse, Hyundai Santa Fe revealed; Buick Envista, BMW M4 CSL driven | Autoblog Podcast #790

Fri, Jul 21 2023

In this episode of the Autoblog Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by Senior Editor John Beltz Snyder. After some banter, including the discussion of an excellent tomato sauce recipe, they get into car reviews. Greg has been driving the Mercedes-AMG GLE 53, while John has been testing the BMW M4 CSL and Buick's new Envista crossover. There's lots of interesting news this week. Chevy revealed the 2024 Traverse with new looks, a new engine and on off-road(ish) trim. Hyundai gave us a glimpse at the wild styling of the next Santa Fe. Dodge might bring back the Stealth nameplate as an SUV, and that has implications for the Durango as well. Ford, after repeatedly raising prices, has turned around and significantly discounted the F-150 Lightning across all trims. The first Tesla Cybertruck has rolled off the line as a pre-production prototype. Finally, we reach in to the mailbag and help a listener decide what to do with cars for himself and his kids in this week's Spend My Money segment.

Hyundai, BMW in plant talks with Mexican officials

Fri, 27 Sep 2013

BMW and Hyundai may be joining the rush for the border that has already seen Nissan, Honda and Mazda begin factory construction in Mexico, while Ford and General Motors have both made significant investments in their Mexican facilities. BMW's interest in Mexico has been apparent for some time, and while we'd heard grumblings about Hyundai's move into Latin America some time ago, the last we heard about it was in 2009.
This new move, reported by Bloomberg, doesn't get specific on which models will be produced south of the Rio Grande, and as neither automakers' spokespeople responded to the business site's request for statements, all we really have to go on are the statements of Mexico's Economy Minister, Ildefonso Guajardo: "I cannot talk for them, but I think that starting 2014 we'll have new announcements. At least for one." Which manufacturer that will be remains anyone's guess, although judging by all the recent scuttlebutt that's been going around, the smart money seems to be on BMW. We'll stay with this one.

Forza Motorsport 6's new drivable Hot Wheels cars are the best

Tue, May 3 2016

Each month, Turn 10 Studios releases a new car pack for the latest installment of its Forza Motorsport video game. Sometimes that means less-than-exciting stuff coming to our Xbox Ones – BMW X6M, bleh – but this time our inner seven-year-old is beyond ecstatic. Two of the seven cars are based on actual Hot Wheels models. And. They're. Awesome. First we have the 2011 Hot Wheels Bone Shaker. Yes, there are flames on the side. And yes, there's a giant skull where the grille should be. This one came from the imagination of "Mr. Hot Wheels" Larry Wood, whose design was so popular it inspired an actual real-world creation. Like all good things in this world, it's powered by a small-block Chevy V8. Oh, and it has no roof. This will be a popular one among gamers. The other digitized Hot Wheels creation is a 2005 Ford Mustang. A modest vehicle, sure, but the toy designers have festooned this pony car with a wild paint scheme and the body mods to emphasize it. Originally developed to celebrate the 'Stang's 50th birthday, this Hot Wheels car trades Americana for wild Japanese style. There's just one functioning life-size version of this car in existence as well, but if you look hard, you might be able to find one of the 1:64 scale models that inspired it. Other highlights from this month's car pack include the latest Ford Focus RS – finally time to replace that NASCAR-V8-powered, all-wheel-drive 2009 Focus RS – the 2015 McLaren P1 GTR, the 2016 Chevrolet Camaro SS, the aforementioned X6M, and Alain Prost's 1990 Ferrari 641 F1 car. The Hot Wheels Car Pack is available for download today.
