5 speed manual
129k miles Manual convertible top Limited slip differential Silver exterior Red leather interior New brake lines with braided steel flexible lines Drilled and slotted brake rotors Cool Carbon Brake Pads Eibach Sport Springs Bilstein Sport Shock Timing belt replaced under 5k miles ago Previous owner did transmission and clutch Car is in good condition. Engine runs like a top. Passed MA inspection without issue August 2013. Has been in the family for nearly 8 years. My father owned it before me and recently transferred ownership to me -- but we both have considered it our car for all of that time. Technically I am the 5th owner. My dad bought it from the 3rd owners, and he (the 4th owner) transferred it to me.There is some rust, but I think it's cosmetic -- mostly just some rust around the rocker panel on the driver side and small spot under the brake light on the passenger side rear. The other area that could use some attention is the front seats. There is a seam rip on the driver seat side bolster, and some general cracking from dryness on the front seats. It's a great summer car, and if you throw seat covers over the affected area, you're in business for a great time for the upcoming warm weather. If you know how to upholster, and can do some minor body work you can really take this car to the next level. There really aren't many e30 BMW convertibles around, and the ones you find are either fully restored and going near $10K, or they are just beat to death and rotted out. This is a unique car as it is in good mechnical shape with many of the coveted suspension and braking upgrades already taken care of. Act fast because this will be gone quick -- and before you know it the summer will be over and you've driven your boring sedan for another 6 months of spring and summer instead of rocking a German made classic with the wind blowing through your hair. |

BMW M2, we're happy to see you
Wed, 03 Sep 2014I recently spent some time behind the wheel of the BMW M235i and, well, I didn't love it. Sure, it's a great car, but I just didn't truly bond with it the way I have with previous M cars. What I had hoped for was a proper successor to the 1 Series M Coupe I fell in love with in 2011, but what I got instead was just a sporty 2 Series that didn't exactly stir my emotions in the same way.
But now there's this: the honest-to-goodness BMW M2. Previously, spy photographers captured a development-mule M2, but this is the real thing, in its full prototype body. Notice the aggressive front fascia that mimics the M3/M4, the more more robust wheel/tire package, and the M-standard quad exhaust outlets around back. This thing sure does look the business.
Details are slim as of this writing, but rumors suggest power will come from BMW's now-ubiquitous N55 turbocharged 3.0-liter six, with output somewhere in the 360- to 380-horspower range. The seven-speed M dual-clutch transmission seems like a good fit here, too. As does a six-speed manual transmission (here's hoping).
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.
Are you the BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe?
Fri, 31 Jan 2014Thanks to Austrian website Autofilou (via Jalopnik), we now have our first look at what appears to be the upcoming BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe - the four-door version of the new 4 Series coupe, which itself is based on the 3 Series sedan. Makes total sense, right?
Nevertheless, in our First Drive of the 4 Series coupe, we found it to be a much more engaging experience than the 3 Series on which its based. And if this new 4GC follows in those footsteps, it could prove to be a better 3 Series sedan than, well, the 3 Series sedan.
Expect the 4 Series Gran Coupe to come in 428i and 435i flavors, with a 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-four in the base car and a 3.0-liter turbo-six in the higher-end model. Of course, BMW will likely bring a range-topping M4 Gran Coupe to market not long thereafter.
