Superb 2005 BMW Z4 2.5 liter convertible! This is a gorgeous example of German engineering. Both fun to drive and reliable as a Swiss watch. I am helping my mother sell this beautiful specimen of an automobile. The car has Pennsylvania plates but currently garaged here in Baltimore. Come take a look and take a test drive (serious buyers only). Send questions to ebay account. The car runs perfect like a top. She has had only one other owner and has been extremely well maintained. There has never been a collision. She has a clean history. New floor mats. New wiper blades. Recent full synthetic oil change. Full climate control with efficient A/C system, cruise control and remote entry. Additional features include ABS, stability control, dynamic brake control and brake proportion control, traction control, run-flat tires, front and side airbags, and rain-sensing wipers; plus remote entry and a superb sound system with in-dash CD. The soft top with heated glass window is manual but is easily opened with one hand. The engine has been well maintained with documentation of regular oil changes and service. There are mostly highway miles as the car was driven from Baltimore to PA on occasion. There are no mechanical or cosmetic flaws. As mentioned above there is some mild discoloration of the front headlamps from UV exposure and only very minor small incidental fine scratches which are barely noticeable. This car is in truly excellent condition. I don't think it would be fair to say the car is mint because of these extremely minor cosmetic flaws. But for a car with 64,000 miles she is truly outstanding. Anyone lucky enough to purchase this automobile will be rewarded with pure driving pleasure. She is perfect for a Sunday drive and more than capable of attacking twisty back roads. This BMW is a classic and turns heads. There is a gorgeous rumble heard from the motor as it revs. German engineering ensures a tight fit to the road. The 5-speed manual transmission is as smooth as silk shifting. BMW really made a tight machine with this one. Spring is here! This roadster won't last. Put the top down and enjoy! Happy bidding.

BMW to unveil X4 in March

Mon, 04 Nov 2013

It's been about half a year since BMW unveiled the X4 concept in Shanghai. But if you've been waiting for news on when it will reach production, the latest intel indicates it'll be announced next March.
Just when in March? That's the strange part. Inautonews reports having been told by BMW that the new X4 will be announced on March 14. So, the Geneva Motor Show, then? Not quite: although that show will still be going on then, the doors open to journalists like us on March 4, not 14. So either someone has got some details mixed up, or BMW - for some reason - is planning on waiting until after Geneva to reveal the production X4.
Whenever it does, we'll be looking at a slantback version of the X3, much like BMW did with the X5 and X6, giving Bavaria a rival to the Range Rover Evoque and Porsche Macan.

BMW E9 3.0L CSL Batmobile is an awesome retro racer

Tue, Sep 8 2015

When BMW released pictures of its 3.0 CSL Hommage earlier this year and then brought a period-livery racing example to Pebble Beach, this is the car it was looking at. The BMW E9 New Six CS came before BMW Motorsport and BMW M cars existed, and well before the tagline "The ultimate driving machine," but it paved the way for all of them. Built as a road-going coupe from 1968 to 1975, 1,265 units out of a total production run of 30,546 units were homologated for the European Touring Car Championship. Fitted with the final specification aero package in 1973 and powered by a 3.003-liter inline six-cylinder with a base rating of 200 horsepower, it proved such an able racer that it won the overall ETCC trophy six times - four of those after its road car donor had ceased production, and a bunch of other races like a class win at Le Mans. Clean samples go for huge money. That aero kit earned it the nickname "Batmobile," and Car Throttle drove a left-hand-drive version in the UK (BMW did build 500 right-hand-drive models, though). This is less a car review and more a dream drive, the host letting us know right off that the 3.0 CSL is the one car he's wanted to drive more than any other. He also finds that the Coupe Sport Leicht had a stop/start system... of the temperamental kind. Check it out in the video above. Related Video:

What would you drive in 1985?

Wed, May 6 2020

Bereft of live baseball games to watch, I've turned to the good ship YouTube to watch classic games. While watching the 1985 American League Championship Series last night, several of the broadcast's commercials made its way into the original VHS recording, including those for cars. "Only 8.8% financing on a 1985 Ford Tempo!" What a deal! That got me thinking: what would I drive in 1985? It sure wouldn't be a Tempo. Or an IROC-Z, for that matter, despite what my Photoshopped 1980s self would indicate in the picture above. I posed this question to my fellow Autobloggists. Only one could actually drive back then, I was only 2 and a few editors weren't even close to being born. Here are our choices, which were simply made with the edict of "Come on, man, be realistic." West Coast Editor James Riswick: OK, I started this, I'll go first. I like coupes today, so I'm pretty sure I'd drive one back then. I definitely don't see myself driving some badge-engineered GM thing from 1985, and although a Honda Prelude has a certain appeal, I must admit that something European would likely be in order. A BMW maybe? No, I'm too much a contrarian for that. The answer is therefore a 1985 Saab 900 Turbo 3-Door, which is not only a coupe but a hatchback, too. If I could scrounge up enough Reagan-era bucks for the ultra-cool SPG model, that would be rad. The 900 Turbo pictured, which was for auction on Bring a Trailer a few years ago, came with plum-colored Bokhara Red, and you're damn sure I would've had me one of those. Nevermind 1985, I'd probably drive this thing today. Associate Editor Byron Hurd: I'm going to go with the 1985.5 Ford Mustang SVO, AKA the turbocharged Fox Body that everybody remembers but nobody drives. The mid-year update to the SVO bumped the power up from 175 ponies (yeah, yeah) to 205, making it almost as powerful (on paper, anyway) as the V8-powered GT models offered in the same time frame. I chose this particular car because it's a bit of a time capsule and, simultaneously, a reminder that all things are cyclical. Here we are, 35 years later, and 2.3-liter turbocharged Mustangs are a thing again. Who would have guessed?
