1991 BMW 850i, V-12 Automatic, Calypso Red, fully loaded, and just turned 83,370 original miles. The car is priced way below market to SELL. I have a new toy arriving this week and need the space.

This is not your typical 850. For a start it has only 83,370 miles and the engine really shows it. The car starts easily and the engine is silky smooth and revs easily. This is fitted with the Wokke performance chip, Magnaflow mufflers and X-pipe and it sounds pretty angry. Not too loud but nothing like standard.

The car drives great, air and heat work perfectly, cruise, tilt, power seat, radio, lighting, accessories, etc all work. This car runs smooth and peppy, it shifts and stops properly, and is really a pleasure to drive. The H&R Lowering Springs and the 18x9 and 18x8 wheels provide for a firm but comfortable ride.

The car was lowered with H&R Springs. The Drilled/Slotted Brake Rotors, Ruff racing wheels and tires, ECS Wheel Spacers, and Lowering Springs all have about 3500 miles or less on them. The engine has been fitted by the prior owner with the Wokke Performance chips, they do make a difference in performance. The Mufflers and X-pipe have about a 2-3000 miles on them. Brand new batteries, so all is good there too. The fuel pump was replaced using genuine BMW fuel pump. Intake gaskets have been recently replaced along with new NGK Plugs.

These cars have a common problem in that the computer loses its pixels and becomes unreadable. This unit has been replaced with a refurbished computer and ALL pixels are working perfectly as you can see in the video below. Rear brake pads were replaced less than 100 miles ago. Brand new BMW driver's side lower door seal.

I am including with this car the Euro style door mirrors which, at least in my opinion, are vastly superior in terms of styling (see final photos). They just need to be painted to match and fitted. Finally I am including an original BMW radio in case you wish to revert the car to original.

I do have the original Suspension, brake parts and also the exhaust. All of which are included. Again in case you want to revert the car to original spec OR you can sell them.

The car has a small battery drain which has been traced to the driver's door. I have purchased replacement modules which need to be installed. A mechanic should be able to do this easily. One or the other is the likely culprit.

Bodywork and paint is solid, a few dings which is to be expected on a 23 year old car. The rear bumper is showing a little sign of heat to the paint and a fresh coat of clear should resolve that.

The big ticket items on a car of this type is the power train and you wont find a smoother engine.

BMW 2 Series Coupe priced from $33,025* ahead of Detroit debut

Fri, 13 Dec 2013

BMW is definitely going to have its hands full at next month's Detroit Auto Show. The big news might be the debut of the M3 and M4, which were previewed in our Deep Dive, but joining those performance cars under the bright lights will be the all-new 2015 BMW 2 Series Coupe.
While we already know most of the details about the 2 Series and its available M Performance parts, BMW has now announced that the Coupe will go on sale in the first quarter of next year with a starting price of $33,025 (*plus $925 for destination) for the base 228i. This price is about $1,500 more than the current 1 Series Coupe, which starts at $31,500, while the M235i's starting price of $44,025 is almost $500 more than the existing 135is Coupe. There is still no indication as to when we'll see 2 Series Convertible unveiled.
In addition to new M cars and the 2 Series, BMW's display will also reveal another new color-theme package for the Z4. Last year we saw the Hyper Orange package, and this year will give us the Ivory White Burnt Sienna Z4 available in an exclusive Sparkling Brown Metallic exterior paint color. Scroll down for the full press release of production vehicles BMW has planned to showcase at Detroit's Cobo Hall next month.

BMW V8-powered Ford Model A is the definition of Hot Rod

Thu, 20 Jun 2013

Today, hotrodding has a pretty staid definition. Take one classic American car, add one classic American V8, sprinkle with tire smoke and you pretty much have every hot rod to roll out of a shop in the last 40 years. Mike Borroughs knows it wasn't always this way. Once upon a time, getting your bucket to go faster meant grabbing whatever parts were lazing about the yard, bolting them together with a bit of ingenuity and laughing your way down the quarter mile. It's in that spirit that Burroughs built his 1928 Ford Model A.
Rather than turn to the tired flathead or the common Chevrolet small block, Burroughs plucked a 4.0-liter V8 from a 1995 BMW 7 Series. With 300 horsepower and 300 pound-feet of torque, the engine has no trouble shuffling the old A around town. He had to build a custom chassis to get everything to cooperate, but the result is a 1,500-pound heathen that looks built to harass dry lake beds. You can check it out in the video below. Be warned, the soundtrack by Hanni el Khatib may not be safe for work - awesomeness of this caliber rarely is.

BMW won't build M4 Gran Coupe

Fri, 04 Jul 2014

Over the last few years, it feels like BMW has looked at its lineup and decided to offer a vehicle in every possible segment that it can find, no matter how small. The company is finally showing some restraint, though, at least when it comes to the high performance M division. For example, don't expect to see an M4 Gran Coupe at your local BMW dealer in the future.
M GmbH sales chief Jörg Bartels told Cars Guide in Australia, "It was definitely considered, but there is no plan to build an M4 Gran Coupe." The sport sedan just wouldn't make financial sense, he said. BMW already builds the M3 and M4 at separate factories, adding a third for such a niche model would be too much. Plus, the M3 already fills out the segment.
If you wanted an M model with a bit more storage space in the back, Bartels dashed those dreams, as well. He said that there isn't an M3 Gran Turismo hatchback in the pipeline, either.
