This is a very fine example of the 633 csi coupe, the last affordable desireable collectible from BMW,and it is in amazing ready to use condition. The start price on this classic is far below what similar cars with the 5 speed have been selling forand many of those are in rough shape. You can buy some other fixer for less but it will cost you so much more in the end. This car is ready to use NOW. Dont buy a car with air conditioning that doesnt work, warning lights unexplainably on, etc. etc. BUY A GREAT CAR that is well sorted. THIS IS IT--please take a moment to read the description!--This vehicle has clear California Title.  This is a truly beautiful car with much recently spent on it. Drive it anywhere, it is a gem. This well cared for example had a repaint just last year in the original safari beige factory color, with glass out of the car and body and prep work done to an amazing high standard of workmanship. Body and paint was over an expensive color and clear factory type repaint and it shows! The flawless body and paint of this car is just one of its highlights. A true craftsman remade the front leather seats to exacting BMW standards using the correct original pattern, top quality leather hydes, and much new material inside. The rear seats are perfect and the impression is a car of a year or two in age, not  a 1981 vintage vehicle. The carpet was replaced with a full set from a low milege 1989 car which kept the originality, fit and luxury feel correct. The rear shelf upholstery, so often damaged from sun, was also replaced correctly with the leather trim redone around the parecel shelf and speaker storage boxes. The headlining is all tight and intact and clean. This is a non smoking car. Next the dashboard, often a problem with these cars, was professionally reskinned using a high cost form unit that recovers the entire dash and retains originality perfectly with the look of a new car. At that time, non functioning heater and air conditioner controls were replaced with factory new units inside the dashboard. Also the difficult to get to and long ago bypassed heater core was replaced with a brand new factory unit. This is an extremely expensive job but it had to be done to assure that the R134A conversion of the A/C would yield a perfect heating and air conditioning unit for this luxury performance car. So few of these are in all working order on the six series cars which ruins the enjoyment. The A/C blows ice cold, and the heating works beautifully as well. If you are considering another 630, 633, or 635 make DARN SURE the heating and A/C all work and ask for receipts on a heater core or you WILL do one at over a thousand for parts and labor. If you smell coolant, just add a grand to the price of that other car...and wonder what else it needs. This one is done and ready. All four power windows also work great, as do all gauges. Car never even thinks about running hot; the gauge stays below the middle of the range in all types of service, even L.A. traffic in hot 90 degree days with the air conditioner blowing cool air to the cabin. It is a very nice driver!

Mechanically the car had the factory recommended reinforcement of the differential mounting done, and this car has the desireable Getrag 5 speed that must be the silkiest and most enjoyable gearbox I have ever used. In the past year I replaced the radiator, radiator fan, all hoses and belts, rebuilt injectors and air valves, and all of the fussy and impossible to find fuel injection hoses and factory plenum chamber hoses which make this car not only pass its strict California emissions with ease, but it runs smooth and strong. The engine and drivetrain of this car are outstanding and need nothing but a driver to enjoy them. The troublesome metric wheels have been replaced with the very desireable specified replacement beautiful BBS wheel set, and have good tread on a set of Kumho performance radials. The sound system is a cassette stereo that fits the dash nicely, and the original BMW unit is also included, recently found online and I have not tested it but was told all including cassette worked. The original plugs and wiring were not disturbed so the factory radio should be a drop in . This car has never been rusty or wrecked, with one very minor collision to the left rear way back in 1996 and repaired so well it is undetectable (see auto check). It has all of its original comprehensive onboard tool kit and factory jack, and it presents, looks, and drives like it was meant to while looking better than any other 633 you will find. The kicker is this car is being sold with NO RESERVE. The highest bidder will own this car and will be thrilled from the first drive and for many years to come. I encourage any inspection of this superb vehicle by a knowledgeable inspection service, club or enthusiast representaive of the buyer. This car is the real thing, and please see my feedback as an ebay seller and buyer over 14 years who cares about quality and will make this a great experience for the buyer. We will help with cost effective shipping, free delivery to the shipper if needed, and delivery for cost of fuel and bus ticket within 300 miles of Los Angeles.(I would LOVE to drive this one last time and meet the new lucky owner. We will not end early and the car is not for sale locally. This is a real auction and the winner gets it. This is the one so put a bid down to win it.

Editors’ Picks April 2023 | New X1, a Bentley and some luxury EVs

Mon, May 1 2023

This month of Editors' Picks features a smattering of luxury vehicles in both sedan and SUV body styles. The new BMW i7 was a big surprise, and the Mercedes-Benz EQE is a lovely enough electric sedan to get our recommendation, too. We've given every other Bentley model an Editors' Pick before, and the Bentayga follows suit. Lastly, BMW nabs a second in April with the newly redesigned X1 subcompact crossover. In case you missed our previous Editors' Picks posts, here’s a quick refresher on whatÂ’s going on here. We rate all the new cars we drive with a 1-10 score. Cars that are exemplary in their respective segments get an EditorsÂ’ Pick designation. Those are the ones weÂ’d recommend to our friends, family and anybody whoÂ’s curious and asks the question. The list that youÂ’ll find below consists of every car we rated in January that earned an EditorsÂ’ Pick.   2023 Mercedes-Benz EQE 2023 Mercedes-AMG EQE View 38 Photos Quick take: The EQE offers all the niceties of a traditional E-Class in an electric form. Its design is simplistic and bland to a fault, but everything else about it is executed well. Score: 7.5 What it competes with: Porsche Taycan, Audi E-Tron GT, Tesla Model S, BMW i4 Pros: Gorgeous interior, big backseat, advanced tech, excellent driving AMG variant Cons: Bland design, average range/charging speed, questionable value From the editors: Road Test Editor Zac Palmer — "I drove the AMG version of the EQE, and while it's a rocketship of an EV, it lacked the ne'er-do-well nature of the gasoline-powered AMG versions of the E-Class. The interior is beautiful, but I can't say the same for the exterior, even with the AMG add-ons. The AMG EQE is a perfect Benz, but I wouldn't go so far as to call it the perfect AMG product." In-depth analysis: 2023 Mercedes-Benz EQE Sedan Review: A smaller, less expensive EQS   2023 BMW X1 2023 BMW X1 xDrive28i 03 View 31 Photos Quick take: The BMW X1 is the driver's choice in the subcompact luxury SUV segment. Its size and abundance of tech makes it a great all-rounder for anybody's taste, though. Score: 8.0 What it competes with: Volvo XC40, Audi Q3, Mercedes-Benz GLB, Mercedes-Benz GLA, Jaguar E-Pace, Lexus UX, Land Rover Discovery Sport, Pros: Fun to drive, great utility, traditional and handsome design Cons: Interior feels spartan, value is questionable From the editors: Senior Editor, Green John Beltz Snyder — "This segment is a competitive one, but the X1 sets itself apart as the driverÂ’s car.

2014 BMW 320i

Tue, 24 Dec 2013

When BMW switched its entry level 3 Series, the 328i, from a naturally aspirated, 3.0-liter six-cylinder to a turbocharged, 2.0-liter four-cylinder, we weren't entirely sure what to think. Sure, from a pure numbers perspective, the new 2.0-liter cooked the old 3.0's goose, delivering more torque at far more accessible engine speeds while boosting horsepower and fuel economy.
While we miss that revvy six-pot, the numbers for the 2.0 were just way too good to pass up. Then we received news of an even less-powerful 2.0-liter 3 Series - the 320i. This was interesting, as it saw BMW delving into a power level previously owned solely by the anemic Lexus IS 250 and its six-cylinder engine.
Could BMW make a sub-200-horsepower sedan that still drove the way we expected a 3 Series to drive? To find out, we borrowed the new 320i for a week of testing.

Tesla, BMW and Nissan meeting in secret to discuss charging tech

Tue, Jun 17 2014

It's interesting what's happening in the electric vehicle field. It used to be that BMW and Tesla were competitors. Then – and of course they're still competing, especially in the public mind – they were working together on ... something. Maybe. And now, the Financial Times reports that the two luxury automakers are meeting with Nissan. Again, maybe. The scuttlebutt is that the three companies are interested in working together on something to do with charging electric vehicles, potentially a global recharging standard. Currently, when it comes to fast charging, BMW uses the SAE Combo standard, Nissan uses CHAdeMO and Tesla uses its own Superchargers. The meeting was prompted by Tesla opening of all of its patents the other day, FT says. Speaking during the recent annual shareholder meeting, Musk said he was "more than happy to have other manufacturers" use Tesla's Superchargers but that, "there is no other electric car that can accept anything close to 135 kilowatts." Let's assume the technical hurdle can be overcome. With any potential patent/licensing problems out of the way, these discussions with BMW and Nissan might be revolving around this other angle that Musk mentioned: "They (other automakers) just have to contribute to the capital cost, so figure out what percentage of the time are their cars using the Supercharger network and then they can make a contribution proportionate to their customer usage of the Supercharger network." That certainly sounds like something that could take some time to figure out.
