This vehicle is currently located in Atlanta, GA. I am a used car dealer. I basically purchased this vehicle as a toy. I was going to use it as a track car. When I purchased the vehicle, it did not run and drive. The engine was locked. The cause seemed to be a blown head gasket. No coolant in radiator, all the coolant was in the block when we drained the oil. I had a perfect engine & gearbox out of another M5 that was wrecked badly and not worth repairing. That engine went into this car. The donor cars mileage at the time of the swap was 86,348 and the donor car was a 2002 M5. If you want the VIN to verify or pics of the donor car, just let me know.

This vehicle that I am selling ONLY comes with a Florida Certificate of Destruction. Please don't ask me why, where, how to get a title for it, etc. The answer will be I do not know. If you are the high bidder, its your responsibility to know the rules and regulations of your home state or country as well as what you can and can't do with the car once you acquire it. Included with the sale of the car will be the Florida Certificate of Destruction and a bill of sale from me. That is all.

The bad:The car was involved in an accident in its past life. It was repaired fairly, but not perfectly. The front bumper is not original, fog lights are missing. PDC sensors are not connected. Plastic panels under & around the front end were not replaced. Paint work is fair, some imperfections, but for the most part you have to be looking for them or know what you're looking for. Dent below drivers side tail light. Drivers door window regulator is not working. Aftermarket wheels, painted calipers. Star in windshield.

The good:Newer, lower mileage engine and gearbox. Fresh oil change with Liqui Moly 10w60. Some brittle vacuum hoses were replaced while the new engine was being installed. Power steering hose replaced. Car runs, drives great. No check engine light on. Brand new front rotors and pads (less than 300 miles). Interior is in very good condition. No major interior issues, no major rips, tears, odors, stains, etc. Aftermarket wheels have good tires.

Please ask as many questions as possible. I have perfect feedback and want to keep it that way. I tried to give you an honest description. If you have any other questions, just let me know. High bidder is buying the car as-is. No warranties or guarantees.

Recharge Wrap-up: video touts Volvo electric buses, Nissan and BMW build EV chargers in S. Africa

Wed, May 27 2015

Volvo is touting the advantages of electric buses in a new video. The short film, called Route 55, promotes the ElectriCity Project for public transport, and, more specifically, the new electric bus route in Gothenburg, Sweden. The new route debuts June 15 using Volvo electric and hybrid buses. In the video, two teenagers are seen waiting for the bus. As one boards, the other asks her out from the sidewalk, but she can't hear him over the noise of the diesel bus, which then closes its doors and drives away. The film asks, "What if this bus had been silent?" See the video above, and read more in the press release below. BMW and Nissan will build an EV charging network across South Africa. Through 2017, the two automakers will build fast-charging and AC stations around the country in order to encourage the adoption of EVs. Nissan has been selling the Leaf in South Africa since 2013, and BMW introduced the i3 and i8 in March. "In order for the introduction and expansion of electric vehicles as well as plug-in hybrid electric vehicles to be successful in this market, we need to work together," says BMW South Africa Managing Director Tim Abbott. Read more at Automotive News Europe. The Renault-Nissan Alliance will provide the United Nations with 200 electric vehicles for the COP21 climate conference in Paris. The fleet of vehicles includes the Nissan Leaf and e-NV200, as well as the Renault ZOE, Kangoo ZE and Fluence ZE. The entire passenger car shuttle fleet will use all-electric vehicles as some 20,000 UN attendees descend upon Paris from November 30 to December 11. "Thanks to the Alliance's fleet of 100-percent electric vehicles, it will contribute to our goal of achieving a carbon neutral event," says French Minister of Foreign Affairs and International Development and COP21 President Laurent Fabius. "The technology of electric vehicles helps reduce greenhouse gases in the transportation sector efficiently." Read more from Renault. Visa will be the official title sponsor of the Formula E London ePrix. Officially called the "2015 FIA Formula E Visa London ePrix," the races on June 27 and 28 will be the last of the electric racing series's inaugural season. Visa Europe will award the Visa Fastest Lap trophy after the each round, and will have interactive activities at the race's eVillage.

BMW M235i in circuit scrap with legendary E46 M3 CSL

Fri, 25 Apr 2014

Earlier this month, we brought you news that BMW's one-year wonder, the 2011 1 Series M Coupe, is actually trading for more money today than it did when new. That sort of short-term appreciation is a major rarity with modern production cars, but apparently it's not the only BMW enthusiast coupe to enjoy far-above-average residual values. The not-for-North America 2004 M3 CSL, itself a single-year offering, apparently also fits that description, as we've just learned from Auto Express.
The M3 CSL ruled overseas BMW showrooms a decade ago, with just 1,400 examples built. Based on the well-regarded E46 M3, the rare two-door was relieved of extraneous bits for improved track work and driver fidelity, coming in at around 240 fewer pounds than a garden-variety M3. With carbon-fiber-reinforced plastic bodywork, thinner glass and a lot less sound insulation, the CSL was one of the more raucous cars of its day. Like the 1M Coupe, it was also one of the more connected cars of the era, with a retuned suspension, quicker steering, and a bit more power than its brethren.
As Auto Express points out, a good used one commands about the same money as a brand-new 2014 M235i - the closest thing BMW makes to a 1M Coupe today - which makes this video track battle an interesting new-versus-used showdown. According to AE, a well-sorted used M3 CSL will run UK consumers anywhere between £30,000 and £35,000 - roughly $50,000 to $59,000 US. That's a massive premium over the $10k-17k British buyers can expect to shell out for a comparable standard M3, similar to the story that plays out for the 1M versus lesser 1 Series variants.

BMW 1 Series with B38 three-cylinder engine

Downsizing For BMW's Front-Wheel-Drive And i Futures
Output is quoted at 175 horsepower and BMW says it will hit 62 mph in 7.0 seconds.
The red five-door BMW 1 Series seen in this photo gallery has little to do with what is actually of importance here. What we've just tested at an airfield not far from Munich, Germany, is a new 1.5-liter TwinPower Turbo inline three-cylinder gas engine that we'll be hearing an awful lot about in the coming few years.
