1998 BMW 540 - 6 speed manual transmission
In on trade at VSR Automobiles Inc. in Toronto is this very nice and clean 540i with a 6 speed box. This is a very fun and fast car to drive. Don't let the high kilometers fool you. This BMW has ben very well maintainned and has a strong motor, transmission and clutch. I have been happily using this BMW as my driver for months and only now have I put it up for sale. This is a fun, and cheap toy for BMW fanatics like myself. I have only done a couple of small mods like an M-spoiler and also new, blacked-out kidney grills. It has approx 309,800 kilometers and I have put on a few thousand with no issues. The silver exterior is very clean and rust free with just a few scratches here and there common of a car this old with these KM. It appears a couple of panels have been painted such as the front passenger fender. This car comes with a clean accident report from carproof. It also comes with the books and extra keys. Overall it is very nice. The interior is equally as nice. It does have one thing that i've never seen on any of the many 540's ive bought and that is cloth interior!!! It acually is very nice and great in the winter! There is some ripping on a couple of the seats but it is very, very nice overall. Everything including all power options, AC, heat and windows work. The only item I found not working is one of the passenger seat power settings. The car is fitted with 17" wheels with very good Michelin winter tires. No other sets to come with the car. The check engine light is also on. But again, I have been driving this car, had it checked for safety and it won't need much for an ontario safety. Lot's of clutch left and the motor is strong.
This auction is set up ONLY to accept reasonable offers. I will NOT give this car away and have no problem driving it, but if I get the right offer it's gone! Please ask all questions prior to making an offer. Have all funds in place, look over the vehicle if needed PRIOR to making an offer. Please do not waste my time as I promise not to waste yours. This is a good old car. I sold my last two 6-speed 540's for VERY good money and this one is MUCH nicer so please no low ball offers. I can arrange shipping anywhere in Canada at a very good dealer rate. Please email me your postal code for a quote. Car can be viewed anytime by appointment only at my lot at 1974 Dundas St. West. Always best to call first. This car is selling as-is where it is. My company policy is to not safety or etest any old cars.
Thanks for looking,
Vasco,

2015 BMW M3 squares off against Alpina D3 in gas vs. diesel throwdown
Sat, 26 Jul 2014There was a time when diesel meant one of two things: This vehicle's owner either wants to save some money at the pump or needs to haul massive loads. It definitely did not mean that the owner of said machine wanted to drive fast, but that perception has slowly but surely been changing over the last several years, with automakers from Volkswagen and Ford to Audi and BMW offering spiced-up versions of their high-compression, turbocharged diesels.
It's that last automaker we mentioned that's the subject of the video you'll see down below. One bright-blue BMW M3 was procured by the Brits at Autocar, and it was lined up against a deep-black Alpina D3 (which we sadly can't buy in the US) in a spate of tests, including acceleration, stopping, sound and lap times on a closed circuit. The results, which we won't spoil for you, were enlightening, and were followed up by personal impressions from the man behind the wheel.
We know you're curious. All it takes to find out which of these 3.0-liter, twin-turbo-powered 3 Series variants came out on top is to scroll down below and watch. You know what to do.
BMW planning to stretch i3 into i5 family hauler?
Sat, 30 Nov 2013If you're sweet on the new BMW i3 but wish it had more space to carry people and stuff, we've got good news for you. According to Autocar, BMW is planning on stretching the platform that underpins the i3 to create a new model, expected to be called i5.
The stretch job would add an extra four inches of legroom in the back and another six inches of rear overhang to the benefit of cargo space. The result would create a vehicle longer than the current Mini Countryman - although the next Countryman is likely to be even larger. As Autocar points out, the process of extending the i3's composte passenger cell likely wouldn't be as difficult or cost-intensive as lengthening a conventional metal chassis, although the rear doors would need to be re-engineered.
Whether the resulting vehicle would more closely resemble a hatchback, wagon, minivan or something in between remains to be seen, however BMW is said to have already registered the nameplates i1 through i8, signalling that the possibility is at least there to add more members to its new EV family.
BMW sold 2.49 million BMW, Mini and Rolls-Royce vehicles in 2018
Tue, Jan 8 2019FRANKFURT — German carmaker BMW on Tuesday said it achieved record sales of 2.49 million BMW, Mini and Rolls-Royce vehicles last year. "BMW Group achieved record sales in 2018. 2.49 million vehicles mean the BMW Group is the world's leading premium automotive company for the 15th year running," Chief Executive Harald Krueger said. In 2017, BMW Group sold 2.46 million vehicles. Daimler has not yet released annual sales figures for Mercedes-Benz passenger cars, so it remains unclear whether BMW brand overtook Mercedes-Benz in terms of sales in 2018. Sales of BMW, Mini and Rolls-Royce cars were higher than Mercedes-Benz in 2017.
