This is a 1988 BMW 535is with 5 speed manual transmission in original Salmon Silver & Burgundy interior.  I am the original owner, having acquired it new from the Las Vegas BMW dealership.  This vehicle spent its whole life in the NV dry climate and has always been garaged. I am a mature female & have been the only driver of this vehicle. It has never been in an accident, & while under warranty all reg servicing was done at BMW dealership. Since then, my late husband, who was an exclnt mechanic, faithfully babied & serviced this fine example of a fairly rare BMW model over the years. Any items that required attention or replacement were done so when needed.  This fine sedan runs strong, straight & true, with no rattles, hesitations or smoke.  Recent Work: All brakes 3,000 mls, new struts, new drive shaft flex joints, new A/C compressor & hoses, & new susp lower control arms.

  • Engine compartment is in excellent condition and clean as shown in pictures.  No fake armorall detailing.
  • The trunk is in excellent condition with a full set of BMW tools, jack and spare tire.
  • All original dealership manuels, bmw shop manuel, factory cassette tape package (introduction to the 535).
  • Many additional new parts (as seen in  trunk photo), include rear head-rests, window actuator, electronic antenna, etc.  Note, numerous new parts do not need to be installed, it's just the way my late husband did things.  He loved working on this car, and liked having them onhand in case there was a need.

This is the BMW Z4 GTE that will wear the Roundel in ALMS

Sun, 17 Feb 2013

The Speedweeks at Daytona International Speedway are a month of racing and reveals, with the season's metal going for the flag at races like the Rolex 24 at Daytona and other cars being introduced to the public. In the latter category is the BMW Z4 GTE (click the image above to enlarge) joining the American Le Mans Series GT class this year with BMW Team RLL (Rahal, Letterman and Lanigan). This machine replaces the M3 GT that completed four years of service and won the class title in 2010 and 2011. Naturally, the team is tempering expectations for the Z4 GTE by repeating the fact that it sees this season as a development year.
BMW Team RLL drivers for its two cars will be Bill Auberlen and series rookie Maxime Martin in the No. 55, aided by Jörg Müller for the endurance races at Sebring and Road Atlanta. The No. 56 car gets Dirk Müller on a full-time basis, Joey Hand when he's not competing in the DTM series, and John Edwards when Hand isn't available. Uwe Alzen will help out with driving duties in the No. 56 at endurance races.

The List: The Red BMW - A Retrospective

Mon, 23 Dec 2013

We can't help but use this time of year to look back at the days before and reminisce about friends who are no longer in our lives. For The List, Jessi and Patrick were often joined by a little, red BMW 3 Series that, at times, felt like a third host of the show. Having been bought used for just a thousand bucks, the red BMW proved to be surprisingly durable. Through jumps, dunks and monster trucks, it remained our little trooper 'till the very end, and on the way taught us all how important a faithful four-wheeled companion is to the life's work of completing one's automotive bucket list.
For our last episode of The List in 2013, we give you The Red BMW - A Retrospective.
