1985 Bmw M635csi Euro Grey Market Collectors Car on 2040-cars
Lake Worth, Florida, United States
|
Brief
If your looking at this car, I will assume you know what it is and the value so I won't copy and paste the history or the rarity and collectability of it. This particular car has to be one of the very best examples of the the Euro M6 to date, completely original and a one family owner car since purchase in 1985. This is the only one I have seen with the natural water buffalo interior. This grey market bmw m6 has all german readouts on the dash. The car runs and drives perfectly, always maintained and Sunday driven to keep it in running condition. This is not a beat up M6 with high milage and left out side to die. This is a one family owned car always preserved and garaged. History This car was purchased new in 1985 by my Father somewhere in the NE, and driven to Florida in 1985 I was sixteen at the time and dreamed about someday driving this beast but my Father would never let me drive it. Good decision on his part, a kid should not be behind the wheel of this beast of a car. I bought my own m6 in 2001 a 1988 but rest assured its not the same car as the euro version now that I have driven both. Take a look at the pictures and ask any PERTINENT questions about the car. Its not a desperate sale but we believe this to be such a good example that it should be shared for the right price. If it does not sell I will be happy to leave it in the garage for another day to sell. NOTE: The odometer stopped working sometime in the early nineties I remember as a kid. My father did not drive the car much except to keep it running and everything working. I would have to estimate the actual mileage because of this. I would have to guess between 30K and 40k miles. I am not sure if it can be verified through the computer if any one knows I would be interested. Anyone is welcome to perform any test to determine actual miles. |

BMW X5 driver repeatedly fails to understand big rig braking distances
Fri, 19 Sep 2014Nobody should be shocked that a big, heavy vehicle like a semi truck takes a longer distance to stop than the average passenger car; it's just basic physics. However, this BMW X5 driver seemingly has a major problem grasping the concept, and it results in some serious damage to the back of his SUV.
The whole incident is very confusing to watch. The BMW doesn't even seem to have a reason to slow down before the semi slams into the back of it at fairly high speed. But to make the situation even weirder, the crashes just keep happening again and again.
To give the BMW driver a little credit, he appears amazingly calm when surveying the damage afterward. But you have to wonder what this guy was thinking when trying a harebrained move like this. Check out the video to watch the carnage unfold.
2013 BMW X1
Tue, 23 Apr 2013A Tasty Bit Of Old School For The New School
Against the backdrop of fervent hand-wringing from brand purists, BMW is on the cusp of finally offering front-wheel-drive vehicles. While that's a shock to the constitution, many are pointing to the company's fine-handling Mini offerings as an article of faith that it can get this drivetrain paradigm shift right. That may be true, but there's an even more important lesson that Mini has taught the decision-makers in Munich: how to make real money on small cars.
Before Mini came along, BMW - along with seemingly every other premium European automaker - never really figured out how to coax big dollars out of American wallets without developing cars that had large footprints, at least those other than sports cars. While the automaker really got rolling in America on the strength of little bantamweights like the 2002, it veered away from small cars sometime in the '80s. BMW subsequently crashed and burned with the cut-and-shut 318ti built off its E36 3 Series and, good as it is, the 1 Series hasn't given the company meaty volume or profits, either. Among other brands, the Audi A3 has never rung up big numbers, and the less said about the painful sales figures of the Volvo C30, the better. But Mini has beat the odds, blazing a more affordable and evidently compelling trail. As of late, the company's Countryman softroader has been a massive hit worldwide. No surprise then that BMW has reconsidered bringing over its smallest softroader, the X1, to the US.
BMW M3 and M4 CSL not in the cards
Mon, 27 Jan 2014We aren't sure whether to file this one under "good news" or "bad news." BMW confirmed to Top Gear that there "are no plans" for lightweight versions of the new M3 and M4, in the same vein as the E46 M3 CSL (despite rumors to the contrary). The reason?
"There wasn't a CSL on the previous generation, and the way we look at it is like this: the CSL was great because it had this real focus on lightweight engineering. But we've already done that with these new cars. We've made them as light as possible - they come in under 1500 kilograms (3,306 pounds), which for a car like this is incredible," said Matt Collins, BMW's product manager for small to medium cars.
Now, as much as we love the idea of a hardcore version of any car, we appreciate BMW's point of view that the newest Ms are already as light and tough as they need to be. Collins elaborated, saying, "Rather than doing a halfway house to begin with and then rolling out a CSL, we thought we'd make the 'real' car as light as we possibly could. So we've no plans whatsoever to make a lighter, harder version just yet."
