I've enjoyed driving this clean and gorgeous silver classic beauty in Southern California for the last 20 years. According to the mechanic who sold her and restored her for me, she was in Berkeley, CA before that. So, given how little rust there is, I am pretty sure that this is a "California" car. I've only taken her out occasionally for pleasure and had kept her tucked away under cover most of the time. I am only selling because I am moving back to Hawaii where it'll be difficult to find someone qualified to look after her. The body and the undercarriage is clean and solid; the paint is beautiful without any bubbles or pits. I've proudly received countless complements from passersby. She's a pleasure to drive and has plenty of pep. Engine starts up quickly and easily. Here are some of the repairs/restorations done within the last few years... - Installation/replacement of a newly rebuilt steering box, power steering pump, various steering components & the front-end suspension - Replaced master brake cylinder - Installed a "new" dashboard with no chips or cracks - Replaced the water pump and radiator- Minor rust remedial and paint work.- Installed a new ignition system I am not a car collector nor a car buff so there are a few minor flaws on the car that have not bothered me enough to fix but you should know exist... - Minor rust spots where the trunk lid meets the body. - Driver-side power window motor was deactivated and has been replaced with a hand crank.- Driver-side window has some scratches. - Driver-side door has one light paint scratch which I think could be buffed out. - Shifter boot is worn out at the base. - Clock does not work. - Seats have good upholstery but the driver side cushion is getting a bit thin from usage. - Air Conditioning system is deactivated. I didn't want to spend the money to find out what is the problem on something I rarely use.- Missing tool kit. - Headliner looks worn and may need some work. - Wood trims on both doors have some chips and cracks on the ends. I can send you photos of the items above and any other features if you'd like to examine them in details. You will be purchasing this car as is and without any warranty/guarantee from me. I am available to show you the car at pretty much any decent hours. I am located in downtown LA. Please email me with your telephone number if you'd like to speak to me directly. I require a non-refundable $2,000 deposit via Paypal or bank wire transfer. Balance must be paid with a bank wire-transfer within 7 days of auction close.Buyer is responsible for all applicable fees, taxes, custom duties and shipping costs.Please consider your fringe costs before bidding. Please do not bother asking me to misstate the purchase price on the registration paperwork. It will be cause for termination of the sale and I will keep your deposit. Thank you for your interest. Good luck on your bidding. ALOHA!

BMW i3 configurator is so advanced it's replaced trim levels

Fri, 25 Apr 2014

BMW's electric i3 is slowly marching its way to dealers. It might not be happening quite fast enough for customers, though. For you anxious individuals, head over to the BMW consumer website and build your ideal i3 in the new configurator.
Before we talk about all the stuff this build tool can do, we need to address the naming of BMW's trim levels for the EV hatchback. The 328i, for example, is available in Sport Line, M Sport Line and Luxury Line. That's good; it makes sense. The i3, though, has Giga World, Tera World and Mega World. Seriously. We've no idea what BMW was thinking when it came up with this (this is the same company that regularly uses the phrase "Sport Activity Vehicle," so...).
Silly names aside, let's try and translate where each trim fits in. The Mega World is the base trim. The Giga, at $1,700, adds stylish leather-and-wool seats in a clean two-tone color scheme, along with 19-inch wheels and a leather-covered IP. The Tera World demands $2,700, but makes up for it with its own 19-inch wheels and a full leather interior. Both lines (worlds?) add satellite radio and eucalyptus wood trim.

2014 BMW 3 Series Gran Turismo [w/video]

BMW Gets Much Closer To The GT Look And Feel It Seeks
The 2014 BMW 3 Series Gran Turismo is being launched to a pretty cynical automotive press brigade. You know it. We know it. Heck, even BMW knows it. We've just returned from driving it on the rather unforgiving and sometimes nasty roads of Sicily, and even before we got behind the wheel, many of our media colleagues were busying themselves doubting the 3 GT's very raison d'être. So, despite the always excellent Sicilian hospitality, the day's atmosphere was kind of fragile.
While the press in attendance seemed determined to nail every product expert to the wall for having been even tangentially associated with the larger 5 Series Gran Turismo, it seemed that BMW decided ahead of time to not introduce such a sensitive discussion topic. That strategy would do little to smooth things over as everyone started digging for dirt on BMW's so far clumsy Gran Turismo franchise.

This is the final BMW M3 Coupe

Fri, 05 Jul 2013

Pour some out for the BMW M3 Coupe, folks. Production of the two-door, fixed-roof M3 has officially ended, and the orange car you see here is the very last one.
But we don't just meant the last M3 Coupe of this generation - this is the last M3 Coupe ever, since the next-gen car will launch under the name M4, staying true to BMW's revised nomenclature where coupes and convertibles will use even numbers. (Don't forget, the new 3 Series coupe becomes the 4 Series for the 2014 model year.) There will, of course, be a new M3, but that badge will only be found on the four-door version.
BMW first launched the M3 Coupe in 1986, and since then, more than 40,000 examples have been built. Sedan and convertible versions were added later in the car's life, and BMW says that the current 2013 model year convertible will remain in production until September of this year.
