This car has been repainted and upholstered in the eighteen years that I have owned it and has never been in any accident. It has been stored in a roofed area for as long as I have owned it and is free of rust. This car's 4 gear transmission has been replaced with the 5 gear transmission of a BMW 325 for improved performance and motor longevity, but it did not lead to any changes in the car's body. As a result of this modification, this car's handling improved considerably, as did its fuel efficiency. The interior, which was originally vinyl was replaced with leather, but kept the same design. The car's ignition was replaced with an electronic one, and the points have been changed out as well. The original rims were also replaced with a set of 3-piece BBS rims and its current tires have about 800 miles on them. I am still in possession of the original rims should you want them, but they are not complete with tires. This car's bumpers have also been replaced with their chromed steel European variant, done in such a way that one can still switch back to the original ones. I can also provide you with the original rims if you prefer them. This car still has the original radio, with speakers below the seats to avoid cutting the inner door panels. Pictured you will see a small crack in the windshield, I haven't changed it as I have not found an original replacement. Also pictured are some cracks in the dashboard, which are normally unseen due to a cover. You will also see in the pictures that this car is not using its original air filter, but I do have it if you prefer it. Included also is the owner's manual, with proof of dealer maintenance for approximately the first three years of ownership. As of this listing, I cannot say for certain how many miles worth of service this car received, but if you are interested, I'd be happy to look in to it for you. Feel free to ask me any questions you may have surrounding this car. Thank you.

BMW i8 and M1 reunited in mid-engined Bavarian retrospective

Mon, Dec 1 2014

The BMW i8 may be the cutting edge today – it did, after all, just win our Technology of the Year award Â– but as rare an event as it is, it's not the first time that BMW has put out an extreme mid-engined supercar. The last time was in the late 1970s with the M1, a Giugiaro-designed, (partially) Lamborghini-developed piece of exotic machinery. The better part of four decades later, Auto Express has brought together an original M1 with its spiritual (if much more advanced) successor for the video comparison that was bound to happen. The question we can't help but ponder, initial sales success aside, is whether the i8 will mature into a classic in the same way the M1 has.

BMW to pay $1.6M, rehire workers in discrimination settlement

Thu, Sep 10 2015

A BMW subsidiary is on the hook for $1.6 million and must rehire workers as part of a settlement for a race discrimination lawsuit with the US Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. A change in BMW Manufacturing's criminal background check policy at the Spartanburg, SC, factory disproportionately affected African American workers, according to the EEOC, and it cost many people their jobs. The automaker has since changed the policy. According to Automotive News, the suit stemmed from BMW switching logistics contractors at the plant in 2008. As a result, 645 existing workers had to submit revised criminal background checks to keep their jobs. About 100 people didn't meet the new guidelines, according to the EEOC, and they lost their jobs. Around 80 percent of those affected were African American. According to the government agency's complaint, the altered procedures only took into account the category of a crime, not factors like when it occurred or whether the infraction was a misdemeanor or felony. With the settlement accepted by US District Court, BMW must offer work to the affected employees in this case and as many as 90 African American applicants that the contractor didn't hire because of the rules. The automaker also must offer training in the proper manner for criminal background checks. While there's nothing inherently wrong with investigating workers, "when a criminal background screen results in the disproportionate exclusion of African-Americans from job opportunities, the employer must evaluate whether the policy is job related and consistent with a business necessity," P. David Lopez, the EEOC's General Counsel, said in the agency's release, which you can read below. BMW to Pay $1.6 Million and Offer Jobs to Settle Federal Race Discrimination Lawsuit Company's Criminal Background Policy Disproportionately Affected African-American Logistics Workers, EEOC Charged GREENVILLE, S.C. - The U.S. District Court for the District of South Carolina today entered a consent decree ordering BMW Manufacturing Co., LLC (BMW) to pay $1.6 million and provide job opportunities to alleged victims of race discrimination as part of the resolution of a lawsuit filed by the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC).

Mini JCW Paceman vs. BMW M135i in family faceoff

Mon, 15 Apr 2013

Over the last year, we've had the chance to drive two of the most exciting hatchbacks in the BMW family - the BMW M135i and the Mini Paceman John Cooper Works - but Autocar has managed to get the two corporate cousins together for a head-to-head comparison. Just like our initial impressions of the Paceman JCW, Autocar has little to complain about this new 215-horsepower hatchback... until it begins to factor in the faster, better-mannered and similarly priced M135i.
Despite laying down an extra 100 hp and delivering a 0-60 time that is almost two seconds quicker, the M135i carries the same price tag of 29,535 pounds in the UK; US pricing for the Paceman starts at $36,200, while it still isn't even clear if the US will be getting the M135i. Even more surprising is the fact that the Paceman falls short of the M135i in regards to rear seat and cargo volume, and just barely squeaks out a win in the fuel economy department. Scroll down to watch the BMW versus Mini hot hatch battle.
