For sale is a 1986 BMW 524td. These do not come up for sale very often so here is your chance to have one of the coolest and rarest 80's turbo diesels! This car has never run veggie oil or bio diesel, but it is a great candidate for a conversion. You would probably have the one of the few BMW bio-diesels around!
This car shows 175k on the odometer but do not let that scare you. These engines are bullet proof and even the gasoline versions regularly go well over 250k.
I just replaced, within the last month, the:
Water pump
Timing Belt
Injector bypass fuel lines
fuel filter
Glow plugs
The fuel tank has also been dropped and cleaned.
CRACK FREE DASH!! Just unheard of!!!
Chrome style 5 wheels off of a 7 series.
The car has a salvage SC title.
The damage was apparently not bad at all because I have been all over and under this car and there are absolutely no signs of damage. The only indication that something happened is that the car has been repainted in the original Bronzit Beige color.
This car does have some small issues here and there but not any more than any other e28. For instance the windows are slow. The main blower motor has seized but the A/C blower motor works fine. The A/C does not blow cold and I am not going to say it just needs to be charged because I don't know what is wrong. The windshield washer does not spray. The odometer gears are broken and the drivers side seat back leans a little on the left side. But what can you expect from a 27 year old car? Please ask questions. 828 335 0290

Forza Motorsport profiles courageous paralyzed racer
Fri, 08 Aug 2014It's easy to look at racing video games as just a time waster or a hobby. In reality, though, they're often powerful tools for aspiring racers to learn tracks, race craft and how to set up a car in an easily accessible, risk-free environment. We aren't just talking about proper computer-based sims, like iRacing. Console-based racers like Forza Motorsport and Gran Turismo provide a test bed for racers of all sorts.
For Mario Bonfante, Jr., a former motorcycle racer that was involved in a brutal accident that left him in a wheelchair with only limited use of his arms, Forza is a bit more. It allows him to perfect the setup of his personal racecar, a heavily modified E46 BMW M3, complete with hand controls.
Check out Mario's inspiring story.
Mercedes leads in US luxury car thefts
Wed, 31 Jul 2013Mercedes-Benz makes some fine automobiles. The Silver Arrow'd cars are so good, apparently, that thieves can't help but try to steal them. The German brand is at the top of the charts for luxury car thefts in the US, according to the National Insurance Crime Bureau, with New York City leading the way. (And those New Yorkers complain about Detroit being bad!)
The C-Class was the most stolen model, with 485 ganked between 2009 and 2012 in NYC alone, while the E-Class and S-Class (which also boasted the worst recovery rate, at 59 percent) both finished in the top ten. Following the C-Class was the BMW 3 Series and Infiniti G. Not surprisingly, each of these were the most common models in their respective lineups. Los Angeles and Miami are also prime hotspots for luxury car thefts, according to the Detroit News report.
While getting your car stolen is pretty awful, there was one inspiring statistic compiled by the NICB - the average recovery rate across the board was 84 percent, with the Cadillac CTS getting recovered 91 percent of the time.
BMW unleases new M4 as MotoGP safety car
Mon, 10 Mar 2014BMW has some considerable racing prowess to crow about, and draws on those credentials to create models like the new M4. But it's not about to rest on the laurels it's won at the end of innumerable races past and present. Mere months after the release of its latest performance coupe, BMW has already revealed a new M4 touring car for the DTM series, and has now unveiled its new M4 safety car for the MotoGP motorcycle championship.
Revealed on the BMW M Facebook page and set to debut at the front of the grid at the season opener in Qatar a couple weeks from now, the new M4 safety car is just the latest in a long string of official vehicles it has provided to the MotoGP series. Previous examples have included everything from the 1M Coupe to the M6 and the X6 M.
Like its predecessors, the M4 safety car features emergency lighting, special equipment and of course BMW's trademark white livery with red, navy and light blue stripes that, in this arrangement, give the new Williams Martini Racing livery a run for its money. Logos promote the BMW M Performance Parts you can buy to bring your own Bimmer up to spec, which on this car isn't likely have changed much from stock.
