This 1986 BMW 735i Sedan is a fine example of a first-generation BMW 7-Series, the car that started BMW's current full-size luxury car competitor. You won't find many of these coming up for sale, as buyers at the time had no idea what the 7-Series would spawn, and while over 285,000 were built, not as many as you'd expect ended up in the United States. Sporting 120,000 miles, this car has done some decent traveling but has plenty of life left to give. It's worth the attention of a BMW fan or car enthusiast.
The straight tan paint job on this 1986 BMW 735i Sedan isn't likely to attract too much attention, but those who recognize it as the trend-setter that it is will pause and give it a long look. We are told that this car sports new tires on new 16-inch wheels with an added spacer, as the wheels are likely from a newer BMW model. At the front, you'll find BMW's iconic kidney grille, albeit much smaller than today's models, and a quartet of headlamps, plus twin foglamps. You can also see the elongated bumpers that were mandated by North American safety norms at the time. Now, it's time to enter the luxurious cabin of this 1986 BMW 735i Sedan and see what the luxury car buyer of 1986 would receive. Quite a bit, actually. There's air conditioning that's reportedly been rebuilt, power adjustable driver and front passenger seats with memory for the driver's seat, power windows, power mirrors, power door locks, a BMW radio cassette head unit, and a trip computer. Rear seat passengers receive their own set of air vents and an additional cigarette lighter, which can be used as a 12v power port too. The driver faces a set of clear analog dials that are a refreshing change from today's psychedelic digital displays and receives a little check panel to the left of the cluster that warns of any light bulbs being out. There's also a dinky stalk to operate the cruise control.
This 1986 BMW 735i Sedan comes with a 3.5-liter in-line six-cylinder engine that was factory rated for 182hp and 214lb-ft when new. It drives the rear wheels via a four-speed automatic transmission that's reportedly received a fluid change, and the engine has received an oil change as well.

BMW’s 6-Series Grand Tourer wouldn’t be complete without a full-fat M-Division variant. Called, you guessed it, the M6, the first of these rolled off the lines in 1983. As expected, it offered the banzai performance for which the M Division is renowned for, but didn’t compromise on the car’s luxury features and long-distance cruising abilities. This 2008 BMW M6 Convertible is from the E63/64 era of 2005 to 2011. As a convertible, its model code is E64, and it’s got 70,000 miles on its odometer. However, don’t let that put you off because this car has received some recent maintenance to help keep it at peak health.
How can you make BMW’s fantastic 3-series even better? Well, the purveyors of the Ultimate Driving Machine called upon their M division to do so. The result was the M3. First introduced in 1986 for the E30 generation, every 3-Series ever since has come with an M3. Over its time, the M3 has seen sedan, coupe, and convertible body styles. This particular 1995 BMW M3 is up for grabs, having 238,000 miles under its belt. Coming from the fine E36 generation, it includes the original owner’s manual and tape, two keys, and is said to be an all-original example. Moreover, its engine was rebuilt at 200,000 miles, giving you peace of mind since it’s only covered 38,000 miles since that time.
The BMW M6 is the all-singing, all-dancing high-performance variant of BMW’s 6-Series. The 6-Series is a grand tourer that first appeared in 1983. Then, it disappeared in 1989 before re-appearing in 2011. By 2012, the F-Series was introduced with three body styles. Buyers could choose between a four-door Gran Coupe, a two-door coupe, or a two-door convertible. This 2015 BMW M6 Convertible is of the latter, as you may glean from its full name. It’s a powerful, turbo-V8-powered drop-top with around 28,000 miles on the clock. It’s also got the Executive Package, Competition Package, and Driver Assistance Package boxes ticked. In short, it’s a perfect example of BMW’s Ultimate Driving Machine.
Excalibur…that’s not an automotive brand that many have heard of. Things get even more confusing when you set eyes upon this machine via our photos. The bottom half of it looks like something from the 1920s. The top half is decidedly more modern, and the title says it’s a 1989 Excalibur Series V Sedan. Well, you see, the Excalibur is a car that is designed to look like a 1920s automobile but based on something decidedly more modern. This Milwaukee-based company has been at it from the 1960s, right up until 1990. Although as you can imagine, they didn’t exactly sell massive volumes. Production volumes are estimated at over 3,500, but actual figures are hard to come by. So, if you want an American curio to grace your driveway, this 1989 Excalibur Series V Sedan with its 17,600 miles is a great candidate. We’re told that the car has documented mileage and includes its owner's manual.
The 1991 Mercedes-Benz 560SEL Sedan is from the second generation of the legendary Mercedes-Benz S-Class line. The W126 is so far the most successful and the longest in production generation of the iconic S-Class. The W126 project was led by Mercedes-Benz Chief designer Bruno Sacco who aimed to make the new S-Class more aerodynamic, efficient and retain the unmistakable design elements that makes the S-Class an S-Class. The weight was significantly cut down by extensive use of high-strength low-alloy (HSLA) sheets and polyurethane deformable material for the bumpers and side claddings. Lighter alloy material was used for the heavily revised 5.6-liter M117 V8 engine that this Mercedes-Benz 560SEL houses. It is also the biggest engine that you could have had with a W126 S-Class. Our featured car has a total of 80,000 miles on the odometer. We’re told this particular model has been treated to new parts and has had the front end completely rebuilt as reported by the current owner.
You often hear the phrase “They don’t make ‘em like they used to” and that couldn’t be more true when said about new cars. This 1985 Mercedes-Benz SD with just 50,000 miles on the odometer is the perfect way to showcase that saying. No complicated electronics and sensors here, just an honest car that is built to a standard that is nonexistent nowadays. The S Class name has been around since 1972 with several models to choose from in that 52-year timeline, and this classic W126 is on the more desirable side.
