Beautiful 1988 BMW M6.  Looks great and runs great.  A classic that will never go out of style.  I have had five 2002's but always wanted a vintage 6 series.  I found this car in 2010 and have cared for it since.  Prior to my purchase the car was brought into the great shape it is in now.  The exterior was stripped and new paint applied.  The paint job is a strength of the car.  It looks like new, shines bright and draws attention to the car.  I have done my part by driving only on good weather days and keeping the car garaged.  There is no rust whatsoever that I am aware of.  


Mechanical work done before I bought the car included a new clutch, new catalytic converter, distributor cap and rotor, ignition wires and plugs, hood struts, tail lens and rear brake rotors.  Since I bought the car I have installed a new alternator, new battery, new radiator, new power steering belt and power steering gear box.  Mechanically I know of nothing that it needs.  It cranks every time and runs like a champ.  I commute about 20 miles each way and drive the car about once a week.  It is a pleasure to drive.  We recently drove to the Vintage in Winston-Salem, NC and she pulled hard the whole way.  I would take her cross-country without a second thought.

The interior is original with full white leather.  The power seats work as do the power windows and mirrors.  The AC blows strong and cold.  Living in the south that is a must.  The carpet is in good shape.  I have red and black coco mats in the floor.  They are in excellent shape.  The head-liner is original but in good shape.  There is a small crack in the dash that just happened (I don't know why since the car is never in the sun - I have included a picture).  The odometer worked when I got the car.  At that time it showed 64,750 miles.  It is not currently working but since 2010 I have put no more than 2,000 miles on the car max. 

I bought new wheels and tires last year.  They are 17" Ultra Alpine 402 wheels with 205-50-17 Nexen N5000 tires.  The tires have less than 500 miles on them.

I installed a new Kenwood receiver with SiriusXM radio, CD and aux connection for iPod.  The face detaches for theft protection.  New speakers were installed as well.

Why am I selling?  A three year "M2" project is finally finishing and I need the garage space for that special car.  Something has to go.  My lose can be your gain.

Shipping is the responsibility of the purchaser and a $750.00 deposit is due within 48 hours of winning bidder.

Please let me know if you have any questions.  This is a chance to own an M car that really stands out.  As with any 25 year old car it is sold without warranty and "as is".  Happy bidding!

BMW Concept Active Tourer Outdoor enjoys a day in the sun

Wed, 10 Jul 2013

This BMW Concept Active Tourer has evolved for the nature and cycling set and premiered at OutDoor Friedrichshafen, a trade fair in held this month in Germany. The sturdy wagon is tweaked with new materials, accessories and ConnectedDrive features for those who do a lot of their living under the sky as opposed to inside their cars.
Under the hood is the same plug-in hybrid drive system we've were introduced to in 2012, featuring a transversely-mounted, 1.5-liter turbocharged three-cylinder engine paired with an electric motor and a battery pack under the rear compartment floor. Total output is 190 horsepower and 147 pound-feet of torque headed to the front wheels, a claimed time from zero to 62 of under eight seconds, a pure electric range of up to 19 miles, a top speed of 124 miles per hour and claimed fuel economy of around 95 US miles per gallon.
The space behind the rear seats is the showcase, with a transformable compartment that can stow two bikes on built-in, retractable carriers. Remove the front wheel and seat from the bikes, then the frames can be locked into place using two rails and brackets. The wheels can be stowed in a holder attached to the right rear seat, the saddles can go into a compartment in the load floor. If you need to make a quick adjustment or a fix, you can do so since the bikes are aligned across the load bay.

Toyota GT86 engineers explored shooting brake and sedan variants, are they still in the cards?

Wed, 13 Mar 2013

According to the Toyota UK blog, engineers for the automaker were so excited developing the GT86 coupe that they investigated producing a whole family of models based on the rear-wheel drive sports car. And at least one engineer - product chief Tetsuya Tada - still hopes it can happen, even if not everyone at Toyota is onboard. Tada: "Actually we tried to do this secretly but the executives found us out. They said: 'What are you doing? Will you please focus on the coupe.'"
Those mooted variants included both a four-door sedan and a shooting brake. Why? Aside from the pure excellence of a lightweight, brilliantly handling hatchback, Toyota was keenly aware of the fact that it may need to spread the cost of development out across several models. Tada says that's part of the reason why it was so easy to create the convertible. The company knew from the outset that a softtop version was in the cards, and built the machine's structure to accommodate having the roof sliced off.
Tada also made mention of the already-announced collaboration between Toyota and BMW. The engineer said that the GT86 was particularly helpful because it demonstrated just how successful a product conceived and designed by two different companies can be. While he didn't say exactly what Toyota and BMW are up to, it's clear the two are looking into a number of possibilities. It's an interesting read with a lot of
