Yes, this pristine BMW is a manufacture's buy back car - let's get that mentioned first.  I purchased this car 1 year ago knowing that the original Georgia owner had (2) High Pressure Fuel Pump replacements and one instrument panel replacement on the car in under 3,800 miles.  BMW had a serious problem with high pressure fuel pumps for a few years and it was not uncommon for them to replace them more than once on a vehicle under warranty. They were finally re-designed and that is no longer an issue. As a BMW Car Club Member, that sort of thing didn't bother me as parts modules can be replaced and this vehicle has a full BMW warranty through September 2015.  Since I have owned it, I have put apps 10,000 trouble free miles on it.  It has been to BMW Service exactly once for oil and filter change, micro filter change and new windshield wipers all under BMW's maintenance program and done at no charge.  That continues for another 18 months as well.  I replaced both of the rear tires on the car at 9,500 miles with the correct BMW-Approved Bridgestone Run Flats, as one picked up a nail and I don't believe in patching tires and always do both on an axle at the same time.  The car is in excellent condition, freshly waxed with Zymol Carbon and Sealant on the paint.  The only flaws on the car are slight curb rash on two wheels.  Leather is treated regularly with cleaner and conditioner, and the car is hand-washed weekly, as well as always being garaged.  60-year-old adult owner, this car has not been flogged or modified in any way and is 100 % stock.   Has all  options in 2012 except for the Technology Package. 

OPTIONS INCLUDE:

*  Leather interior
*  Heated Seats
*  /M Sport Package
*  Dynamic Xenon Headlights
*  Moon Glow Convertible Top
*  XM and HD Radio
*  DCT (Dual Clutch) Transmission 
* Auto-Dim mirrors and ambient lighting 
* Homelink Garage Door

This car is a joy to drive, powerful and responsive.  The Dual Clutch Transmission (not available in the 128i) gives lightening quick shifts without the drag of a torque convertor.  This car needs nothing and is ready for spring top-down weather.  Remember the BMW factory warranty is still in effect and that includes all scheduled service + loaner car if needed for another 18 months.  I have clear title in hand.

Driving the Panamera and Mike's Rant | Autoblog Podcast #487

Thu, Sep 8 2016

This week we cover some recent news like the upcoming Land Rover Discovery, updates to FCA's large car platform (including the Challenger), and talk about water injection. Then we go into what we've been driving - David just finished his time in the Porsche Panamera Turbo and Mike tried the GMC Acadia. And then Mike (who is still uncomfortable writing in the third person) goes on a rant about why automakers shouldn't specify which cars are aimed at women. The rundown is below. Remember, if you have a car-related question you'd like us to answer or you want questionable buying advice, send a message or a voice memo to podcast at autoblog dot com.

Will global automakers drop local JV partners if China's government says they can?

Wed, 02 Jul 2014

Chinese economic policies could be in for a big change, as President Xi Jinping pushes the communist country to open its domestic markets even further. That could mean big things for the auto industry, especially when it comes to the country's far-reaching joint-venture system.
According to Chinese law, foreign automakers may only maintain a fifty-fifty partnership with their domestic counterparts. But with Jinping's push for openness leading to potential free-trade deals, that policy could be relaxed (or eradicated all together) in short order. What's an automaker to do?
Well, in BMW's case, stay the course. Automotive News Europe reports that, despite the grumblings about the JV policy changes, the German manufacturer has resigned its agreement with Brilliance through 2028. This is made doubly remarkable by the fact that BMW signed the extension over three years before it was set to expire.

BMW X5 gets full battery of performance visuals

Wed, 12 Feb 2014

If you think BMW toned down its third-generation X5 CUV a little too much with its latest redesign, the new M Performance Parts line of optional parts may give you a chance to inject in a new sense of style.
The aesthetic parts include new carbon fiber pieces for the mirror caps, front splitter, rear diffuser and rear aero flaps. There's also a rear spoiler, high-gloss black kidney grilles, M Performance rocker panel decals and double-spoke 21-inch wheels with performance tires. The interior upgrades are similar with an available Alcantara steering wheel with carbon fiber trim, stainless steel pedals and carbon fiber gearshift trim.
Not all of the M Performance Parts are about style. The M Performance Power Kit sharpens throttle response and boosts power of the X5 xDrive35i to 320 horsepower and 332 pound-feet of torque, an improvement of 20 hp and 32 lb-ft, and an optional exhaust with chrome tips improves its sound. For buyers looking for improved stopping power, the M Performance Brake Kit adds six-piston calipers with 19-inch steel rotors.
