Very rare 1986 BMW 745IA, this model was never sold in the states, a very limited few were in imported/federalized for the states, car is loaded with all the top options, comes with with highline interior trim (basically leather stitched everything, door panels, dashboard, center console, everything), also has the extremely rare limousine style rear remote control for the radio and seats (see pictures) the large 6 cylinder with the factory turbo is rated at 252 horsepower with 380 nm of torque, this particular model had as much horsepower as the 80s U.S. version M5/M6 (they were rated at 256 horsepower), these vehicle had a whole lot more torque (the beauty of the factory turbo), this was also considered the fastest sedan for it's time. The best part is these vehicles have low turbo pressure 6psi, and I've read literature where you can double the power with a turbo pressure increase to 10 psi. The only book value is can find on this car is NADA.com, they're price listing is $6100 low retail, $10000 high retail, I imagine the value should be somewhere underder the $6k. Almost forgot to mention the car runs very good (the idle is rough on initial start but once it warms up its smooth), the ride is unbelievably butter smooth for a car this old, the engine, tranny and rear is tight, no smoke or oil coming from the exhaust pipe. I reserve the right to end the auction early if I reach an agreeable price with buyer. Any questions please call me at 910-494-7666 or email me at coorvette@hotmail.com Basically all this car really needs is a good paint job, re-upholster the front seats and dash board, leather treatment on the door panels and rear seats, a good oil change and it would be a good driver. Please see attached pictures

Mercedes fights off late BMW surge to claim 2013 luxury sales crown
Sat, 04 Jan 2014The king is dead - long live the king. Mercedes-Benz is now your new US sales champion in the fiercely competitive luxury market, deposing the champ BMW, which has enjoyed annual supremacy for the past two years.
Thanks in no small part to the dynamite launch of the new, affordable CLA-Class, not to mention a redesigned E-Class and hot-selling S-Class, Mercedes moved 33,007 units in December alone, while sales in 2013 were up 14 percent, to 312,534. BMW, meanwhile, managed to sell 309,280 units in 2013. It was far from a sure thing for the Stuttgart-based brand, though, as BMW managed to nearly halve its rival's sales lead heading into the last month of 2013.
"We saw record sales, flexed our muscles across the entire product line from top to bottom and brought the customer experience to an all-time high," said Steve Cannon, Mercedes USA's CEO. While we don't have individual figures, it seems at first blush that the CLA was really the car that pushed Mercedes over the top.
Old vs. new debate gets new life with $25,000 Fiesta ST vs. E46 M3 showdown
Fri, 10 Jan 2014You know who you are. There's probably a few of you reading; the ones that say, "Why would I spend $27,000 on a new Mazda MX-5 when I could get a used Chevrolet Corvette with more power." Yes, we're talking to you, used car proponents. While it is a fair argument, it's not like used cars don't come with drawbacks of their own, though.
In an attempt to put this new-versus-used argument to bed once and for all, Matt Farah of the The Smoking Tire has picked up a pair of $25,000 cars - a used, but lightly modified, 2003 BMW M3 and a 2013 Ford Fiesta ST. Naturally, there's a comparison.
Farah, as he's wont to do, does get into the nitty gritty of what each car is like to drive, and discusses the merits of used and new-car shopping. But as he rightly points out while testing the M3, "So, it is a good car. But like any used car, it really does depend on the individual car."
Is the BMW i8 actually already sold out?
Mon, 02 Dec 2013The other day we brought you a report from Reuters, which quoted BMW's global sales chief Ian Robertson as saying that the Bavarian automaker had already sold out the entire year's production run of its new i8. Impressive, sure, but perhaps not all that unusual for a groundbreaking new sportscar from a major automaker, of which only limited quantities are typically built. But is the i8 really sold out?
Our compatriots at Car and Driver chased down the story and report that Robertson's claims aren't exactly accurate. According to C/D, the numbers are based on sales projections, not actual orders taken. So while BMW may build upwards of 1,900 i8 coupes next year and over 5,000 in 2015, and while they're all expected to sell, that doesn't mean that it's too late to get your order in. That is, assuming you have the $135k on hand and don't mind getting just three cylinders back in return.
