1992 BMW 735i Sedan - Automatic
I haven't driven this car in a year and when I went to use it, it wouldn't start. One garage said the battery was no good, another said the battery was fine so charged it up and the car won't start, the battery has since gone dead. I have been playing around with this car in my driveway(there is no way I am bringing this in to a BMW Dealer for repair!) I just put a new windshield ($350) and replaced the two front tires prior to it being parked ($200). Well.... I don't know what to do with it so thought I would put it up on here and see if I can see if anyone is interested. This is the same type car John Candy drove in Cannonball Run 3! THE MOVIE SPEED ZONE. Check out the video on youtube! (actually, the front drivers seat is SO BEAT UP, I am wondering if this isn't THE car!) I'm not sure at this moment if the car in the movie was silver or gold. This is a SUPER CAR and was a dream when it ran/drove. I am sad to see it go but it is deteriorating sitting in my driveway. These cars are actually starting to climb in value due to collector interest. Selling for parts or repair/restoration. I have taken it apart somewhat trying to figure out what's wrong but I am not a mechanic and well.... I haven't put those things back together though nothing is missing. I went online and someone said to replace the cluster, another guy said it's the voltage regulator.... I haven't been able to get the regulator out of it yet to see if that's what it might be. Needless to say, this is a nice project or good parts car that ran prior to sitting in my driveway and now need it gone as soon as possible. (it's insured/registered etc). I really would hate to see this car scrapped as it is very pretty and would like to see it saved. When this car was running, people would compliment me on it and they thought I was made of money! lol I have to admit it seems to me it did get me a considerable amount of business during the short time I drove it. Has a lot of miles (should be a little over 215K, I can't check it right now due to the current state but I don't think it's much more than that) but mostly to the beach and back. It's starting to get some rust from sitting so please come take care of her! (the car fax score looks better than most I've seen!) Oh.... the only other issue I can think of is the front end needs a bushing replaced. (a common issue for these heavy beamers) But the tranny and motor were operating just fine when it was parked. The windshield and tires were put on 2 days prior to this car being parked as well. I just paid $135 in excise tax. (the town says this car is worth $5,000!) From what the parts go for on ebay, someone could make a lot of money on this car parting it out. (the tranny alone is worth the asking price!) If you find my price too high, please make an offer. Best offers are accepted based upon immediate payment unless stated otherwise in your best offer. Car/Title will be release upon payment in full. NO RETURNS/REFUNDS/ or exchanges!!!!! ALL SALES FINAL! AS IS! NO WARRANTY!!!!! |

The List: The Red BMW - A Retrospective
Mon, 23 Dec 2013We 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.

BMW unveils 2016 X5 M and X6 M super CUVs
Wed, 29 Oct 2014The second-generation BMW X5 M and X6 M have officially made their arrival for the speed-obsessed, crossover-loving masses that aren't willing to turn to Mercedes-AMG or Land Rover Special Operations.
While the new models retain their 4.4-liter, twin-turbocharged V8s, power has increased from 555 horsepower to 567 ponies. Torque is up more significantly, climbing from 500 pound-feet to 553 pound-feet. The extra twist is slightly less accessible, with peak grunt arriving between 2,200 and 5,000 rpm, rather than the earlier model's 1,500 to 5,650. Still, we'll take the ten percent increase in torque as a net win.
The big powertrain switch sees the old X5/6 M's six-speed automatic replaced with an eight-speed Steptronic transmission from BMW M. This new gearbox feeds power to an xDrive all-wheel-drive system that can variably shuffle up to 100 percent of power to either axle. In conjunction with the force-induced thumper under the hood, this powertrain arrangement allows both M models to hit 60 miles per hour in just four seconds. That's a mightily impressive stat in a 5,000-plus-pound vehicle.
2015 BMW X4 is a budget X6
Wed, 16 Apr 2014We won't argue that crossovers are hugely successful vehicles, with automakers working to provide functional CUVs in a wide range of sizes. But over at BMW, things are just getting out of hand, as evidenced by this new X4 "Sports Activity Coupe" that debuts here at the 2014 New York Auto Show.
BMW is seeing fit to offer vehicles in even the most niche of niches, and the X4 is no exception. Want proof? Have a look at the X4, and the compare it to the X3, the 3 Series Gran Turismo, the 3 Series Sport Wagon, and the 4 Series Gran Coupe. Aside from marginal differences in things like ground clearance and the exact slope of the hatchback, what, exactly, is the difference?
Like the other models we just mentioned, the X4 is powered by either a 2.0-liter turbo-four with 240 horsepower or a more powerful, 3.0-liter turbo-six with 300 horsepower, and unsurprisingly, power is sent to the ground exclusively via the company's xDrive all-wheel-drive system. An eight-speed automatic transmission is the sole gearbox available with either engine. All sounds very familiar, right?
