Up for auction is my 1981 BMW 320i. I have driven the car daily for the last 2 years and it has been very dependable, especially considering the age of the vehicle. The car accelerates very smoothly clear through to red line. It has been the most fun car to drive that I have owned. I drive this car often on trips that are over 100 miles long and would not hesitate to drive it anywhere. I hate to see it go but it is time for something larger. I believe I am the 3rd or 4th owner of the car and it was originally sold in California then brought here to Ohio in the mid 90's. The previous owner was a collector and he painted the car the Deep Orange color that it is today. He also installed the scorpion all stainless steel exhaust, Bavarian autosport short shift kit, and K&N filter on the car. The bumpers were also converted to sit closer to the body for a much cleaner look (similar to euro spec cars). Car was originally a dark brown color that is still in the trunk and engine compartment. Paint is very shiny and the car draws attention where ever it goes. Be prepared for conversation as people seem to have their own stories to tell about these cars. It has 120,000 miles and the engine runs strong with no leaks. I have put on new thermostat, clutch slave and master cyl, cold air injector, fuel regulator, and the fuel distributer was recently rebuilt. Emergency light switch is working! Tune-up maintenance items recently put on include new plugs, wires, cap and rotor. Oil was just changed and new MANN filter is on the car. Ready to drive home today and begin enjoying! The KBB value has continued to rise over the last few years since I purchased the car. Very clean car overall with slight rust just below the rear window, inside of trunk. Interior is nearly in showroom condition with just a few small cracks on the dash. I have Bavarian autosport velour front seat covers that are included in the sale . Head Turner! Car has not been in an accident. Autocheck shows an police report that came when I backed into a farmers driveway and missed the drive. It slid off the drive into a small ditch and had to be pulled out by a wrecker. Homeowner called the sheriff and this is the "accident" that shows up on autocheck. So happy biddy!! All sales are local with pickup to be done by winning bidder within 5 days of auction ending. A $500 deposit is required after auction closes. Please contact me with any questions as I would be happy to answer any questions you have about my car.

BMW revisits its 8 Series
Thu, 04 Jul 2013So why would BMW choose July 2 to release a retrospective on the 8 Series? Could it have something to do with the recent unveiling of the Pininfarina Gran Lusso Coupe concept, another sleek, B-pillarless V12 two-door, at this year's Villa d'Este? We have no idea, but the timing is likely coincidental.
This three-minute look at the 8 Series talks to Niels Hamann, who was smitten with the long-hooded coupe when it appeared in 1989 and finally bought one in 2004. Hamann also happens to be a project manager at BMW, and that came in handy when he wrote a book detailing every aspect of what was BMW's flagship for ten years but to the chagrin of many only managed one generation.
While we wait for the next clue about the Gran Lusso - 8 Series connection, check out the video below.
2015 BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe might be a better 3 Series sedan
Sat, 01 Feb 2014At BMW, there really is something for everyone these days. Just take a look at the massive 3 Series/4 Series range - you can have a sedan, coupe, convertible, wagon, or funky-backed Gran Turismo. And now, with the introduction of the 2015 4 Series Gran Coupe, you can have another seda... err, hatchback, actually. But perhaps, a better one.
Compared to the 3 Series sedan, the 4 Series Gran Coupe is both longer and wider by about half an inch, but is shorter in overall height by an inch and a half. Honestly, to our eyes, it looks a little better than the 3 Series, too, what with its longer roofline, more sculpted rear haunches and lower stance. Full interior volume specs for the 4GC aren't available as of this writing, but we expect them to be roughly the same as the 3 Series, perhaps with a small decrease in headroom and rear legroom. Trunk space, at 17 cubic feet, matches the 3 Series sedan, and because the 4GC actually uses a hatchback design, it should be easier to access.
Powertrains are completely carryover from the rest of the 3/4 Series range. The 428i uses BMW's well-liked 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-four with 240 horsepower and 255 pound-feet of torque, and the 435i is fitted with the company's 3.0-liter turbo-six, good for 300 hp and 300 lb-ft. An eight-speed automatic is the only transmission available in the US with either model and rear-wheel drive is standard. Only the 428i can be had with BMW's xDrive all-wheel-drive system, and interestingly, the 428i Gran Coupe is actually expected to be more fuel-efficient than its 3 Series sedan counterpart. The GC is estimated to return 23/35 miles per gallon city/highway, compared to the 23/33 mpg in the 328i sedan. The 435i Gran Coupe should achieve the same 22/32 mpg ratings as the 335i sedan.
BMW 3 Series Gran Turismo gets leaked well ahead of Geneva reveal
Wed, 06 Feb 2013The great power of the internet has allowed us to get an early first look at the all-new BMW 3 Series Gran Turismo, a car that is slated to be shown in full at the Geneva Motor Show next month, albeit without many details to go on right now. With pictures leaking out this early in the game, we'd expect that you won't have to wait until March to get the full lowdown, however.
Our first look at the 3er GT reveals a car that is, to our eyes, a tidier piece of design work than its 5 Series GT brother. The long-backside proportions are still a bit ungainly, at least from these images, but they're helped tremendously with the larger wheel/tire package and more aggressive fascia of the sport package.
Expect the 3 Series GT to hit the ground running, with the same turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder and 3.0-liter inline-six found in the standard 3 Series sedan. BMW's popular xDrive all-wheel-drive system is a virtual lock for the option sheet, too.
