1997 Bmw 528i 5-speed Manual 2.8l, Reconditioned on 2040-cars
Alpharetta, Georgia, United States
|
RARE 5-SPEED MANUAL TRANS with EXCELLENT SERVICE HISTORY! As a rule, we don't usually carry cars of this age or mileage, but there's always an exception - in this case a very rare manual E39 is generally very good condition. We know the history of the car and it has received prompt and effective attention whenever needed, though it reached the end of its previous owners patience when it blew a head gasket recently. We had that done, along with much other minor engine work and we believe the result is a car that will not only be an absolute blast to drive, but will offer several years of reliable service to someone. And incidentally, if you are familiar with the efficiency of that indestructible BMW 2.8l inline Six, you know that this engine/trans combo can easily net high 20's in fuel economy - OR you can drive it like a sports car and it will almost handle and respond like one.
Certainly the 528 of this generation is one of the most competent and versatile - and durable - cars ever built. If you are a fan, this one's for you! Please bear in mind that this car is a GIANT step above what you are usually likely to encounter in this age of car; everything works as it should - AC, lights, windows, radio (trunk CD changer, too!), seats, wipers - ALL OF IT!. And the car will not embarrass you when you pull up to the Country Club or the mosh pit; no significant dents or scratches, no blistering or fading paint, no curbed wheels, matching performance tires, smooth bumpers, etc. And inside, believe or not, the wood is NOT cracked, the leather is not stained or worn through, the carpets are clean, the steering wheel is not alligatored, and miracle of miracle, the headliner is not sagging! Don't miss it. Give us a call at 770-667-5280 or drop by our lot conveniently located at 245 S Main St (Hwy 9) in Downtown Alpharetta, just a block South of Old Milton (Hwy 120). But don't procrastinate- there's probably not another out there in this condition. If you are an out-of-town buyer we strongly encourage and will participate fully in getting you a Pre-Purchase Inspection at a local independent garage of your choosing or at the franchised dealer. If you prefer to have the car shipped to you, we will help with a wholesale rate on shipping and will allow a return if we are notified within 3 days and you pay return shipping. You can visit our website (luxuryimportsinc.com) for more pictures and we will be glad to take as many more as you need, including underside shots and video of the drive. |

Comparison test: 2019 Acura RDX vs. compact luxury SUV competitors
Fri, Jun 1 2018Truth be told, if we were to compare the all-new 2019 Acura RDX with those compact luxury crossover SUVs it would most likely be cross-shopped against, you'd be looking at a different list. Even Acura admits that Lexus and Infiniti are the most likely bogies, but with the 2019 RDX, Honda's luxury brand is attempting to attract those customers who think as much with their hearts as with their heads. And for the most part, those folks have been buying from German brands: the Audi Q5, BMW X3 and Mercedes-Benz GLC-Class. So, to show how the new RDX compares to them, Acura actually provided examples of each during the recent press drive along with a Volvo XC60. All were determined to have greater emotional appeal than the last RDX, and we would certainly agree. For, as much as the previous-generation RDX made sense on paper, it was really hard to get excited about it. And when you're paying extra for a luxury vehicle, shouldn't you get a little excited? Well, as luck would have it, Consumer Editor Jeremy Korzeniewski and I were on hand in Whistler, British Columbia, for the press launch. We didn't have an abundance of time in each RDX competitor, but in conjunction with our usual comparison chart, our impressions should provide a good first taste of how the new RDX compares. Performance and fuel economy Contributing Editor James Riswick: On paper at least, the RDX is gutsier than its comparably powered European rivals. It also weighs the same or less, which logically should mean it'll be the quickest in a straight line. During my brief drives, though, I'm not sure it really stood taller than the three Germans. It at least matches them for smoothness, which is something that can't be said about the Volvo. Fuel economy is lower than them all when you consider all but the Mercedes come standard with all-wheel drive. It's also worth noting that all the competitors are available with engine upgrades, and unless Acura's forthcoming resurrection of Type S models includes the RDX, it should stay that way. Consumer Editor Jeremy Korzeniewski: Line 'em all up in a drag race, and I have a feeling the Acura would squirt away to victory. A good bit of that, though, would be due to its 10-speed automatic transmission, which offers a huge spread of ratios and fires off extremely quick shifts. In the real world, I'd guess fuel economy will be similar across the board, so I'm willing to call that category a draw.
First Ride: 2015 BMW M3 and M4
Wed, 25 Sep 2013Getting Our Butts In The Seats
Both the non-M BMW 3 Series sedan and 4 Series coupe have so far brought much pleasure to us at Autoblog. The terrific four-cylinder 328i trim has become our favorite of the 3 Series line, while we have yet to get a chance at the 428i coupe. That said, the 35i trim powered by a 3.0-liter TwinPower Turbo inline six-cylinder engine is not exactly to be sniffed at.
We all know the ones you're really waiting for, though. The F80 fifth-generation M3 sedan and the supremely sexy F82 M4 coupe. Rumors have been buzzing for a couple of years now that the engine would be another V8, only turbocharged this time, or else a tri-turbo six. Well, today BMW confirmed that the mill under the hood's power bulge is a 3.0-liter inline six-cylinder TwinPower Turbo of the biturbo variety, referred to internally as "S55B30 variant."
Forget about greenlighting it, BMW is already testing the M2
Thu, 08 May 2014One week ago, we reported, with some skepticism, that BMW had greenlit a car we've been waiting for since the 1 Series M Coupe was discontinued - the M2. Now, we have the first images of that new hotshot underoing testing in Germany.
What's our reasoning here? After all, this just looks like an M235i. Well, that camo is disguising swollen fenders designed to conceal wider tires. Now, these aren't production changes, and it's very likely that the eventual M2's fenders will look quite a bit different. According to our spy, the front fenders have been borrowed from the M235i Racing, while the rears are from an unknown source.
Our spies are also quick to point out a few other high-performance items on this mule. The cross-drilled brakes and blue M calipers are one such item, although we aren't sure how much they differ from the optional stoppers on the production M235i. The black wheels are borrowed from the M3 and M4, and are shod in what look like a sticky set of Michelin tires.
