1991 BMW M5 always a CA car. Dinan conversion was done at Dinan with approx 33k on the clock. Please I know selling a budget BMW especially a special model brings out the bargain hunters and I understand everyone wanting a deal. What I ask is you do some shopping and have a clear understanding of what these cars sell for and what their issues are. People see someone buying a car on the internet for $8k showing pics from 15' away with no regard to how it actually functions and WAM! we have the 100 replies that this is a screaming deal and all others should be priced accordingly.
Dinan stroker engine, suspension and brakes. I am a long time car collector who bought this car when I moved to CA to have some fun. It is the most fun you will have at this price point bar none. It has top surface SOCAL fade and clear coat peeling (looks better in pics then it is). Otherwise it is a clean straight car. From 10ft it is fine. Interior is just about flawless for it's age except drivers door panel minor trim separation. Radio alarm went off and will not reset. I have factory code card and I can't get it to stop. Everything else works. Remember this is a sub $15k car that is 25 years old so be realistic. If you have a clean ashtray obsession ask as otherwise I do not think to look at these things. I get in, warm it up and drive it smiling ear to ear. You can buy the $8k stock car and realize it's performance shortcomings and dump $5k into just getting the maintenance work done. You can buy the dolled up $20k car that has minor scratches here and there hidden by over buffed panels and clever photography. Of course the $25k low mile car look like a good buy until you realize it needs just as much work as the cheap one. What I am offering is a nicely sorted M5 with an asking price that just about covers the maintenance performed in the last 10k miles. This car is used EVERY day and does everything it is supposed to no shakes, stumbles, etc. It is a muscle car that you can drive the kids to school in with the A/C on. PPI's are fine as long as the mechanic respects the car and my wishes and understand it isn't a new car. CA buyers I have to obtain a front license plate as it was never given to me when I bought the car and being new to CA didn't realize it was missing. SMOG??? It has always been a CA car and has always passed as is. That said it is a modified car that appears to have all the smog stuff on the car including pump (yes pump is noisy for first couple min common issue and works fine) and stock exhaust. Dinan muffler was removed as per F Fahey. I would rather sell out of state where someone can put in 93 octane and swap out the cats. I hate SMOG and do not want to get involved with it. That said it is currently smogged and registered. Can you drive it home??? YES! If it breaks down I will pay up to $800 towards towing or repair with proof. It will make it no problem. I will also throw in a $300 car cover and radar detector with Buy It Now. I am not interested in hearing about your cars or having the forum self proclaimed master debate me on my car. I am honest seller (look at my rating) who simply wants nice easy transaction. I will gladly assist serious buyers in anyway I can. This is not a stock M5 it is a race car with 4drs. There are faster cars but this thing is more fun then you could imagine making all the noises and tickling the senses that would require another $100k investment to replicate. CAR MUST BE PAID FOR AND PICKED UP BY 4/1/2014. REPAIRS IN APPROX LAST 10K MILES VALVE ADJUSTMENT VALVE COVER GASKET OIL CAP CAP, ROTOR AND PLUGS ALL BELTS FAN CUTCH RADIATOR, HOSES AND WATER PUMP (BMW ANTI FREEZE) AIR FILTER OIL AND FILTER, TRANNY FLUID, DIFFERENTIAL FLUID BRAKES, BRAKE BUSHINGS AND FLUID FLUSH F Fahey lower engine bearings and seals, BLUEPRINTED OIL PUMP F Fahey crank saver $400 part New BF tires less then 800 miles.

BMW 3 Series eDrive plug-in hybrid spotted in development
Thu, 06 Feb 2014BMW has shown its commitment to the development of hybrid and electric powertrains in recent years, with vehicles in its ActiveHybrid range, electrics like its BMW ActiveE and range-extended EVs like the i3 and i8. Plug-in hybrid-electric vehicles are clearly top-of-mind for the German automaker. We saw spy shots of the PHEV BMW X5 eDrive prototypes about a year ago, and now our shooters have come through with a 3 Series-bodied version of the technology, as well.
In addition to the obvious "Hybrid Test Vehicle" designation you see on the bodysides of this 3er, we also note that a second 'fuel cap' - presumably hiding the electric charge point - is in evidence. It's a fairly safe assumption that this 3 Series is making use of the same turbocharged four-cylinder engine and electric motor configuration that the X5 eDrive used. In the case of the X5, that meant a top electric-only speed of 75 miles per hour, with a range of just under 20 miles, and 0-62 mph in under 7 seconds. With considerably lighter, compact sedan bodywork clothing the PHEV drivetrain, we'd guess that the 3 Series eDrive could improve on each of those numbers.
Is BMW ready to increase i8 production?
Fri, Nov 21 2014The BMW i8 plug-in hybrid is really fast. But the car is getting to customers really slowly. The German automaker might be doing something about that. Bimmer executive Ian Robertson, speaking with reports at the Los Angeles Auto Show this week, commented on the high demand for the super-PHEV and said the company may step up production in Germany, Automotive News Europe says. That's because the wait list for the i8 is approaching 18 months in some global markets. And Robertson would like to get that timeframe down to about six months. No details were disclosed about how fast the i8 is being produced or how much faster that production rate may get. The i8, which retails for about $135,000, started sales in Europe in June and in the US two months later. As for the smaller, slower i3 electric vehicle, BMW is making about 2,000 units a month, and wait lists are down to about four months. Part of the reason for that is because BMW shifted distribution rates for that model towards the US to meet higher-than-expected demand from stateside consumers and slow German sales. Through the end of October in the US, BMW had sold almost 4,300 i3 vehicles and 271 i8 models, including 204 i8 units last month alone.
Can the government mechanically force you to wear your seatbelt? [w/poll]
Fri, 30 Aug 2013
The National Highway Traffic Administration is considering the use of ignition interlocks in vehicles that would require the seatbelts of occupied seats to be fastened in order to drive the car, Automotive News reports, four decades after Congress moved to prevent manufacturers from installing them in cars sold in the US market. Following a transportation bill passed last year that lift some of the restrictions on seatbelt interlocks, automakers such as BMW are considering the benefits of using them in future cars. Now, before you go crying about your lost freedom, keep reading.
BMW said in an October 2012 petition that the use of seatbelt interlocks would allow the company to make lighter and more spacious vehicles, if the devices could be used in lieu of unbelted crash tests. The crash test has required the addition of bulky safety features, such as knee bolsters, that aren't as necessary when occupants are buckled up, especially when considering the dizzyng list of safety features that come standard on today's cars. Europe, which has a higher rate of seatbelt use than in the US, doesn't perform unbelted crash tests on cars sold there.
