Rare 1988 BMW M5
It has the original Owners Handbook, All original Doors and Panels with matching VIN Service history back to 2008. It has about 1/2 of the original tool kit. It has not been sitting for over 2 weeks since I have owned it. I make sure to at least run it on the weekends. I use it as a daily driver when the weather is cooler. The AC works but the car doesn't cool very well in the summer months just by design. These weren't built with tropical climates in mind. Power Sunroof. No leaks. Heated seats still work very well. The leather was replaced on the seat cushions on both the front seats. Along with a lot of the trim leather in the Car. The backs of the front seats will probably need to be replaced in the next few years. But all other leather is in good to excellent shape. I have the badges. I just prefer it with out the badges and rear spoiler so I took them off and replaced the trunk lid with a 535 truck lid. I sill have the original truck lid which will come with the car. I also have a fiberglass M5 European bumper If you are interested in doing that conversion yourself. One of the original tires is in the Spare holder. Here is what has been replaced in the last two years: Front Hubs/wheel bearings Urethane suspension bushings Lowering springs and shock absorbers 740i control arm bushings Fan Clutch Starter Paint Breaks, Pads, Calipers. Break Lines replaced with Stainless steel and bleed system. Crankshaft sensor. The Clutch AC Compressor. Speakers and Radio All of the front and rear bumper trim. Clean Mass Air Flow Unit/Sensor Replace to Original Stock Exhaust System. The car has been running and sounds great. Mechanically the car is sound. The body and paint are near perfect. I get a ton a compliments where I drive it. The ugly is the Dash cracks and AC insulation blows through and needs to be replaced. I have been waiting for cooler weather to pull off Dash and cover the cracks. The back right window does not roll up and down. |

Watch this BMW take flight at Viru Rally
Mon, 20 Oct 2014An E36 BMW 3 Series might be a good choice for a lot of purposes - a long road trip, a track day, rallycross, impressing your friends... but a full-on rally? It's rear-drive when the best rally machines are front- or all-wheel drive. But that didn't stop Pritt Koik and Alari-Uku Heldna from entering their stripped-out E36 in the Viru Rally in Estonia... or from getting some big air time when they did.
Fortunately the jump was not just caught on video... it was caught on video from three angles: two from the side of the rally stage and one from inside the cockpit. Check out all three below to see how this particular BMW got back into the aircraft business.
Mazda CX-5 named Japan's Car of The Year, Subaru BR-Z wins "Special Award"
Mon, 03 Dec 2012The Mazda CX-5 stamped its Kodo design and SkyActiv technology authority all over the Japan Car of the Year awards, taking the top prize ahead of the Subaru BRZ/Toyota GT 86. It is Mazda's second victory in the last ten years, the 2005 MX-5 claiming the same trophy, and the fourth time the Hiroshima company has won.
The award is decided by 60 local "automotive experts and journalists," and open to any passenger car released in Japan from November 1, 2011 to October 31, 2012 that has sold more than 500 units. Each judge gets 25 votes, his or her top vote getting 10 points, the rest of the points being spread among the judge's choice for the next best four cars.
The second-place getters were the Toyobaru twins with 318 votes, the surprise being they didn't beat or get any closer to the crossover. The Subaru BRZ did claw some mojo back, earning the Special Award given to cars that have made "an exceptional impact." The BMW 3 Series was third overall and won the Import Car of the Year award with plenty of room between it and the second place Range Rover Evoque.
She's just a girl... who's an E28 fanatic
Tue, 02 Apr 2013Ashley Rodriguez has a thing for the BMW E28. The amateur train photographer has owned over 15 of the cars in her brief lifetime, and says she's attracted to the old 5 Series because of how rare they are. All told, she's owned every variation of the E28 with the exception of the 2.4td, and the crew from Petrolicious recently stopped by to train their lenses on her most recent acquisition: a lovely M535i. The site's latest video, Rare Things, takes a closer look at just what draws Rodriguez to the E28 and how her passion for the cars has evolved over the years.
As usual, Petrolicious serves up plenty of gorgeous footage of the vintage German sedan, and anyone who's ever harbored an obsession over any one particular model can certainly hear a few chords ring true in Rodriguez's words. Check out the clip below to see what we mean.
