Here is a rare, fast and desirable Euro 635csi (E24). Use as a daily driver before it was listed for sale. For the purpose of California Registration, the car is currently registered as an 1984, but is believed to be a 83. Motor/Trans: Runs Great, and is very strong! Compression test taken on 7/19/2013 indicated: #1cyl 185, #2 190, #3 190,#4 185, #5 185, #6 190. Miles are unknown, due to odometer not working. Car has the coveted rare 5 speed "Dog-Leg" racing transmission. AC blows cold, but not efficient as late model cars, compressor is a bit loud. Car steers strait, appears to have been lowered when I purchased it. Mechanic noted the muffler hanger is broken, and causing rattle. Wheels are 16x8.5 BBS from a BMW 840i. Tires appear to be good for a few more thousands miles. The brakes need service. The indicator light is now on and the brakes are starting to get mushy. Although there is no grinding or noise, they should be checked out. Body/Interior: Very close for paint! Body is strait, no noted dings, doors latches need a little adjusting, passenger door handle needs adjusting and has to be opened from the inside, trunk lid does not stay up. Electric: All exterior lights/signals work. Interior lights work, but tachometer is reading incorrectly, Odometer not working, and speedometer seems a tad slow. All windows go up/down, passenger window gets stuck on the way up and needs a little pull to get it up, does not have a stereo. This car is from California and clean w/No Rust what so ever! Trunk/floors, rockers, fender wells, shock towers, cross members, frame door hinges are all in excellent condition! I started removing some molding for paint prep, I have all the moldings, but do not have fog lights, or side-marker lights. The rear is also missing the corner rubber pieces that rap around the 3 piece rubber molding that sits just above the rear bumper. The interior is in very good shape! No rips in seats (leatherette front/ original leather rear), needs back speaker boxes, needs carpet patches back on the doors, dash and windshield are cracked. Note: This is a very rare collectors item, and climbing in value! Major service totaling $1,748: included compression test, valve adjustment, plugs, gasket rings, rubber seals, oil and filter, and air conditioning service was completed on 7/19/2013.
Note: Cash, Cashiers check or PayPal only. A minimum of $500 due within 24 hours at the close of auction. Balance due within 3 days following auction close. Thanks

BMW recalls 6,073 units of i3 and Minis to replace airbag

Tue, Oct 20 2015

BMW is replacing the passenger's side front airbag module on 6,073 vehicles in the US because of a supplier's manufacturing issue with the part. The affected models include the: 2014-2015 i3; 2014-2016 Mini Hardtop 2 Door Cooper and Cooper S; 2015-2016 Hardtop 2 Door John Cooper Works; and 2015-2016 Hardtop 4 Door Cooper and Cooper S. Because the airbag components aren't made correctly, they might not deploy with enough restraint in a low-speed collision. BMW isn't aware of any accidents or injuries from the problem, but this is still obviously a safety concern. According to company spokesperson David Buchko to Autoblog, customers will be notified about the issue by mail in November. As always, dealers will perform the replacements at no cost to owners. Related Video: RECALL Subject : Passenger Frontal Air Bag May not Deploy Properly Report Receipt Date: OCT 07, 2015 NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V628000 Component(s): AIR BAGS Potential Number of Units Affected: 6,073 All Products Associated with this Recall Vehicle Make Model Model Year(s) BMW I3 2014-2015 MINI COOPER 2014-2016 MINI COOPER S 2014-2016 MINI JOHN COOPER WORKS 2015-2016 Details Manufacturer: BMW of North America, LLC SUMMARY: BMW of North America, LLC (BMW) is recalling certain model year 2014-2016 MINI Cooper S and MINI Cooper two-door vehicles, 2015-2016 MINI John Cooper Works and MINI Cooper S and MINI Cooper four-door vehicles and 2014-2015 BMW i3 vehicles. Due to a manufacturing error, the passenger frontal air bag may not deploy properly in a low speed crash. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 208, "Occupant Crash Protection." CONSEQUENCE: In the event of a vehicle crash, an air bag that does not deploy properly increases the risk of injury to the front seat passenger. REMEDY: MINI and BMW will notify owners, and dealers will replace the passenger frontal air bag module, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin on November 20, 2015. Owners may contact MINI customer service at 1-866-825-1525 and BMW customer service at 1-800-525-7417. NOTES: Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov. BMW Statement: BMW has informed NHTSA of its intention to voluntarily recall approximately 923 BMW i3 vehicles to replace the passenger-side front airbag module.

2015 BMW 740Ld xDrive

Thu, Mar 26 2015

When it first came stateside in 1978, choosing a BMW 7 Series was a simple process. With one engine and one wheelbase, you could just pick what color you want and be on your merry way. Today there are ten different models, forcing drivers to choose among four engines (plus a hybrid), rear- or all-wheel-drive, and two different wheelbase lengths. As if this isn't tricky enough, the options list has more custom choices than the Taco Bell app. Do you want standard paint and upholstery, or something from the pricey BMW Individual collection? What about the headlights: Do you want LEDs, or are the standard xenons just fine? Need a head-up display? Night vision? Adaptive dampers? The list goes on and on. After a week with a new version of BMW's flagship sedan, we've sorted out which model you actually want, although it's still up to you whether or not to order a ceramic-glazed iDrive knob. Our favorite 7 Series is now the 740Ld Xdrive, a conclusion we came to after a week at the helm of the smooth, torquey land yacht. Driving Notes When the diesel 7 first arrived at the 2014 Chicago Auto Show, its engine was already familiar to American consumers. It's the same 3.0-liter, turbodiesel inline-six found in everything from the E90 3 Series to the past two generations of X5, as well as the current 5 Series. A robust 413 pound-feet of torque lathered across the rev range, with peak twist available between 1,500 and 3,000 rpm, and the corresponding horsepower tops out at 255. 0Í–60 happens in a sedate 6.1 seconds, and for those with autobahn dreams the top speed is a modest 130 mph. While those figures aren't terribly impressive, as is often the case with diesels, the real-world application of the engine's power is far more dramatic. Even small throttle inputs produce a smooth surge of acceleration, making the 740Ld feel a lot quicker than the performance metrics might indicate. Even with the current cheap price of gas, the superior fuel efficiency of a diesel engine is worth noting, especially as this model only costs $1500 more than a 740Li xDrive. The diesel tips the scales at nearly 4,700 pounds, yet it boasts a 31-mile-per-gallon highway rating. It's rated at 23 mpg in the city, while our real-world testing saw returns in the mid-to-high 20s. Simple anecdotes about acceleration and fuel economy figures only convey a small part of the 740Ld's goodness.
