1988 Bmw 635 Csi Zinnoberrot on 2040-cars
Newport, Tennessee, United States
|
You are reviewing a 1988 BMW 635CSi. The car has the tried and true 3.5L 6 cylinder engine, backed by a 4 speed automatic selectable transmission (manual, economy, sport). Power windows, locks, power seats, headrests, sunroof, air conditioning (front and rear with console cooler), factory radio, 18" Mille Miglia wheels with new (within the last month) Toyo Proxes rubber. The interior does show normal wear for a 26 year old vehicle. Driver seat bolster is torn, but doesn't affect the ride. The interior is all leather including the headliner. All driver gauges work as should and there are no service lights indicating. Recent oil change. Both fuel pumps have been replaced with new ones in the last 6 months. car runs and drives as it should. Before I got the car, the car had sat for most of the last 5 years (garaged), so a few minor problems have arose from this, mainly the transmission pan gasket is seeping (I have a new gasket just haven't installed yet) an a minor oil leak at valve cover. I drive this car a couple days a week to work (50 mile round trip) and it always brings a smile to my face. I always receive compliments on the car wherever I go. The few issues I would resolve are like I said above, the two gaskets, as well as the switch/motor for the power sunroof works intermittently (although those crafty Germans built in a manual crank if needed), the driver door needs new plastic clips and the radio antenna needs inspection as it was not extending when I got the car, and I rebuilt it with new gears, and it still doesn't extend, the ac is not working as of this moment and will need a few lines hooked back up. It does blow, just not cold (since the lines aren't connected and charged). The temperature selector (dial) needs the pivot arm replaced (I have this as well) and the passenger outer door handle rod has come loose ( I have the suspected broken piece for this as well.) All in all, this is a true beauty. Today, as in recent years, many people look to the 635CSi as the last great styling design from BMW, as its classic stature still rings beautiful to this day. Item is for sale locally, so auction may be ended at any time. |

2015 BMW M4 gets initiated into the club
Fri, 22 Aug 2014It's easy for enthusiasts and traditionalists to give BMW a hard time these days, what with its plans to add more front-wheel drive models and seeming move away from more emotionally connected cars. However, the push for perfection that underscored its old Ultimate Driving Machine motto is still in there, especially in its M models. In fact, the first M4 recently made it to US shores, and the company thought the only appropriate way to celebrate was to introduce its new coupe to some of its high-performance forefathers.
The M4's initiation into the M car brotherhood involved bringing together no fewer than 52 classic and newer models - including four racecars and many privately owned vehicles - to an empty parking lot and letting the coupe drift and slalom around them to say hello. According to BMW, there was a combined 11,566 horsepower on hand. It takes a pretty trusting owner to stand back and watch as a brand-new vehicle slides its tail out with the rear wheels smoking within feet of their pride and joy. Stay tuned until the end where the owners and their cars get a shout out in the credits. Scroll down to read BMW's press release about it.
BMW to announce location of new plant in Mexico in July
Tue, 20 May 2014Volkswagen manufactures in Mexico. Soon Audi will as well, and Mercedes-Benz is said to be working on a deal to assemble some of its cars at a Nissan plant in Mexico too. That leaves BMW out of the mix of German automakers building cars South of the Border, but that may soon be rectified, as well.
According to Automotive News, the Bavarian automaker is preparing to announce the site of its first Mexican assembly plant as soon as July, now just two months away. BMW already builds cars for North American consumption at its plant in Spartanburg, South Carolina, but has reportedly been keen to capitalize on cheaper labor and the benefits of the North American Free Trade Agreement to supply vehicles to the United States and Canada especially.
When BMW does announce the site of the plant - reportedly narrowed down to either Hidalgo or San Luis Potosi - it is tipped to work its way up to 100,000 vehicles per year at the new location, potentially to include the 3 Series as well as smaller, front-drive models, including Minis.
BMW 2 Series Active Tourer pulls its way onto the stage
Wed, 05 Mar 2014We know what you might be thinking: here comes another BMW with yet another kind of roofline. Only this isn't just another BMW. It's the first front-drive BMW, and the first time we've ever seen it in person.
That model, of course, is the new 2 Series Active Tourer, debuting here in Geneva as the production version of the Concept Active Tourer and the beefier Concept Active Tourer Outdoor that followed. It shares about as much with the 2 Series Coupe as a jelly donut, but takes BMW into a new market segment - that of the high-roofed hatchback (or micro-minivan, depending on your perspective) occupied by the likes of the Mercedes-Benz B-Class and Volkswagen Golf Sportsvan.
Power comes from a choice of 1.5-liter turbo three, 2.0-liter turbo four or 2.0-liter turbodiesel - but aside from the forced-induction engines what they all the versions have in common is what makes the 2 Series Active Tourer newsworthy: they all sit up front, driving the front wheels. It's an idea BMW purists might not appreciate, but one we'd all better get used to just the same.
