I am reluctantly selling my beautiful BMW roadster. I purchased this car eleven years ago when it had only 3000 miles. It has been babied and only driven an average of 2500 miles a year. It has been stored in my garage winters and never been abused (I am 71 years old). You will not find a nicer car. I have bought many used cars and never one as nice as this one. The car has been trouble free with only a few minor repairs. I have the complete service records and the car has been serviced by Quality Import Service in Elkhart, Indiana. This car can be driven anywhere, any distance. It has what I consider the best colors with the Arctic Silver exterior and the Red Leather interior. The interior shows no wear and the arm rest has been upgraded with a leather cover to hide the cheap plastic that BMW installed on these cars. I have used premium Mobil 1 oil as recommended by the manufacturer and the engine runs as new. All the controls work, AC is cold, and I have never changed a light bulb, or a fuse on this car. I installed new Michelin Pilot Sport tires as original and these tires are like new. The wheels are unblemished except for weight marks from the manufacturer. The top is in great shape and only shows some slight fading. The rear window is clear and in great shape considering it's age. There are only two imperceptible blemishes on the car, a light scratch on the rear passenger fender and a scuff on the left rear bumper. You would not notice these unless I showed you where they were (see pictures). I have owned many sports cars over the years and this is the best one I have ever owned, very reliable with all the amenities, what could be better. Bid with confidence, you will not be disappointed.
Please call me if you have any questions or need any pictures. A deposit of $500 is required within 48 hour of winning the bid. I can assist with shipping, if required, or pick you up at a local airport. 574-848-4623, Roger Hull

BMW 4 Series Convertible basks in the sun
Wed, 07 Aug 2013The BMW 4 Series Convertible will show its non-camouflaged face sometime later this year, but our spies recently caught this nearly naked prototype out getting some sun. As you'll recall, the droptop 4 Series replaces the 3 Series Convertible in the BMW range, and if our recent stint behind the wheel of the new 435i Coupe is anything to go on, this topless 4er should be quite a fun runabout for sun-drenched motoring.
To no one's surprise, the 4 Series Convertible shares all of its design with the 4 Series coupe, save, of course, the obvious roofectomy. Beyond that, the topless 2+2 will use the same engines and transmissions as the coupe, meaning it should arrive in the US in both 428i and 435i guises, powered by a 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-four and 3.0-liter turbocharged inline-six, respectively. Both six-speed manual and eight-speed automatic transmissions will be available.
The car spied this time around has the full M Sport visual treatment, with the revised (and better-looking) front fascia, larger 19-inch wheels, and attractive Melbourne Red paint. Interestingly, it appears this prototype has the standard xenon headlamp setup, rather than the full-LED option that's also available.
BMW invests in carbon fiber for use beyond i and M models
Tue, 13 May 2014The immense amount of resources BMW has poured into its i brand program hasn't stopped, and recent developments indicate it's likely to pay off for BMW and BMW buyers outside the i brand. The i8 has already sold out its first year run, the i3 racked up 10,000 orders before it even went on sale and is already the subject of public discussion about being stretched into an i5, and a new investment in carbon fiber production has the automaker talking about CFRP use in non-i and non-M models.
BMW and SGL Group got together to form SGL Automotive Carbon Fibers (ACF), and the joint venture produces all of the CFRP for the i3 and i8 on two production lines at its plant in Moses Lake, Washington. After already investing $100 million to increase capacity, BMW has announced that another $200 million will add four more production lines, tripling production from 3,000 tons per year to 9,000 tons. When the expansion is complete in 2015, BMW says the Moses Lake facility will be the world's largest carbon fiber plant.
That's a lot of weave and the long view is that it will find its way into core models, with BMW exec Dr. Klaus Draeger saying, "As part of an intelligent mix of materials, we will apply carbon also beyond our BMW i and BMW M models in the future," and be able to do so "at competitive costs and in large quantities."
BMW's Quandt family in hot water over Merkel campaign contributions
Sun, 20 Oct 2013The mysterious and elusive Quandt family is in hot water again, nearly two years after its Nazi connections during World War II were exposed. The German family's patriarch, Herbert Quandt, nearly single-handedly saved BMW from being bought out by Daimler-Benz in 1959. Now, three living family members own nearly half of the German brand, and stand accused of buying votes with donations to the party of German Chancellor Angela Merkel, mere days ahead of a European Union vote that would cap vehicle emissions.
Merkel's conservative Christian Democratic Union accepted three donations, one from each shareholding member of the Quandt family.
Merkel's conservative Christian Democratic Union accepted three donations, one from each shareholding member of the Quandt family, totaling 690,000 euros ($935,000), on October 9. The CDU, for what it's worth, claim the donations weren't related to any political decisions and that the family have been donors for years. A Quandt family spokesperson, meanwhile, said that the family had been waiting for Germany's September 22 elections to pass before making a large contribution to the CDU.
