What I have on offer is an extremely straight and rust free BMW e21 3-Series that I bought last year as a project and first car for my Nephew. The direction we chose was an Alpina tribute car. It is NOT an authentic Alpina, nor will you have to bid the $30K that real ones bring!
It came with the Sport steering wheel and BMW Leather seats made by Recaro. This is consistent with the car being the desirable "is" model, although I cannot be sure. It is wired for driving lights as well. I do not believe that it has a Limited Slip Differential at this time. What it does have are blacked out BMW factory issue 13" Alpina wheels accented in white & shod with incredibly sticky Yokohama AO48 tires with less than 200 miles on them! I also have a set of 15" Parallel 5-Spoke wheels with new Falken tires available to winning bidder at additional cost if desired. I will post a picture of one of those wheels as well as the car with the set mounted up prior to installation of graphics. Also comes with factory original full sized spare on a 5th 13" Alpina wheel and I think neither has ever seen use. Jack, lug wrench and full tool kit are there if you need them.
Car has been executed in a strict Black & White theme with all the side moldings, bumper, window trim, headlight rings, trunk lettering, wheels, etc. done in Black Satin. Attention to detail included tail light section being a solid unit and even the license plate bracket and frame are cooperating. The only thing shiny on the car are the emblems, kidney grill and lots of straight body panels in brilliant white.
Stereo is Sony Xplod with 4 new speakers, various trim bits inside follow theme outside. Car runs strong, has a custom free flow exhaust that makes good noises. It has been recently tuned including timing, fuel injection and valves adjusted. It gets 25-30 MPG, Passed CA smog in December, registration current and does not expire till 10/26/2013. Never overheats, A/C components removed by previous owner. Rear side markers removed, filled and finished prior to recent paint job. Currently installed up front are the highly desirable BBS air dam, which is mounted via rivets which are hidden when the front bumper is installed (easily done and no bumper-preventing mods have been done). Bumper shock access holes currently taped over. I just liked the motorsports look without the bumper! Rear bumper has been tucked. You will also notice the low profile turn signal lenses and Euro amber high beams. Windshield is brand new as is window tint. Rack & Pinion steering bushings and lower control arms just replaced, followed by an alignment.
In conclusion: It's pretty, it's safe, it's reliable and fun to drive, especially in corners! It's also not perfect and is 30 years old. Parts are cheap and readily available. Whatever else it is or isn't is for you to decide, but winner should be prepared for lots of stares and approving gestures from everyone from kids on bicycles to drivers of M6's! You will never have to wonder which car is yours in the parking lot either. And before I forget, selling due to the Kid's newly acquired snowboarding obsession and the need for an AWD alternative to get him up the mountain when the snow flies!
Thanks for looking.

2015 BMW X4 gets its small-screen debut
Thu, 26 Jun 2014It's easy to dismiss the 2015 BMW X4. On one hand, the high-style crossover seems more like a boardroom decision than a practical one. In a world with the 3 Series, 4 Series, X3, 3 Series GT and 4 Series Gran Coupe, is BMW really being inundated with requests for a baby X6? Of course, when we finally got behind the wheel of the CUV for our First Drive, it proved rather entertaining, and certainly the X6's global sales success suggests that it's worth the relatively low-cost risk for the Bavarian automaker.
Now, it's the general public's chance to weigh in on the latest crossover Bimmer and vote with their dollars. The X4 is just hitting showrooms in the US, and BMW is beginning its marketing campaign for it with the slogan "Embrace the Unknown." The first TV ad shows off the CUV driving through the world's major cities as they undulate like the rolling ocean. A woman flatly says phrases starting with "Go," while a synth-heavy score plays underneath that wouldn't be out of place over the end credits in an '80s sci-fi movie.
Visually, it's actually kind of a cool ad and evokes some of the special effects from Inception. Focusing on an urban atmosphere is probably a good idea, too, because the percentage of X4s going offroad is likely to be in the low single digits, if that. Now, let's see if BMW buyers are willing to embrace the unknown of the X4. Scroll down to watch it for yourself.
BMW bringing special Horse Edition 7 Series to Beijing
Thu, 10 Apr 2014The Beijing Motor Show is just a couple of weeks away, and BMW wouldn't miss out on the opportunity to show off its latest wares to one of its most vital markets. So when the doors open in Beijing, BMW will showcase the new 2 Series Active Tourer, 2 Series Coupe, M3 and M4, 4 Series Gran Coupe and X4. It will also introduce the i3 and i8 to China for the first time. But those are all models we've seen already. What's new is... wait for it... the 7 Series Horse Edition.
Not celebrating horses so much as the Year of the Horse, this special edition 7 Series is based on the long-wheelbase model and comes with all manner of M equipment packages, a special paint job from BMW Individual and unique touches inside and out. BMW isn't saying which engine it features, but it sells the series in China in 730Li, 740Li, 750Li, 760Li and ActiveHybrid forms, with rear- or all-wheel drive. Given that the one pictured is wearing an xDrive badge, it would have to be either the 740Li or 750Li, but buyers will presumably be able to order it in whichever spec they desire.
While it may not be as exciting as the 9 Series concept BMW is rumored to have lined up for the Beijing show as well, you can bet that the Bavarian automaker will find plenty of buyers for this extra-special, extra-Chinese, extra-equestrian luxury sedan, and command a healthy premium from each and every one of them.
BMW looking to fix i3 acceleration problem uncovered by Consumer Reports
Fri, 10 Oct 2014The BMW i3 has been hailed in some quarters as the future of electric mobility, what with its innovative carbon-fiber-reinforced plastic body and commitment to sustainable materials wherever possible. The modernist little hatch is even available with a 650cc two-cylinder gas engine with 34 horsepower to act as a range-extender for those who want it. However, that optional engine might have a drawback - at least for the moment.
Consumer Reports brought the problem to light when one of its drivers was behind the wheel of an i3 using the range-extender. When the driver attempted to pass another vehicle on a rolling, two-lane road, the BMW suddenly had no power to accelerate - a scary situation. CR started examining the car and found something pretty shocking: After driving at a constant speed for a while without any regenerative braking in range-extended mode, acceleration to 60 miles per hour plummeted from about 9 seconds normally to a staggering 27 to 40 seconds in their testing.
A BMW spokesperson told CR that it knows about the problem and has a fix coming next spring that also works on current models. The upgrade includes a state of charge indicator, a warning about loss of power and uses the car's navigation to boost the battery before driving on rolling terrain. It is not clear if the severe power deficiency will also eventually result in a recall.
