Boulder, Colorado, United States

Glacier Green over Sand Beige leather

This is a driving enthusiasts car with the 6-speed manual transmission and sport suspension, 
which means the car is lowered, has stiffer springs and struts, and thicker anti-sway bars compared to a non-sport model. 
It is a lot of fun to drive and will get those endorphins flowing. Runs perfectly and all systems function without flaw, none.
All lights, fans, buttons, knobs, windows, handles, etc. work.

This car has had an easy life. Very low mileage at 74,000 miles is an average of < 5,000 mi / year, always garaged and well maintained.
It was custom ordered by the first owner who lived in Englewood, CO and has always been a 
CO car. I have not seen another 540i in this color combination and it is beautiful (imho).

Both the exterior and interior are in excellent condition. The drivers side front bumper cover has a small ding, see pics. Everything else is basically pristine with very minor scrapes on a couple of the wheels.

Options:
Heated Comfort Seats have every power adjustment option available, and they are awesome!
Front and side airbags for both front passengers.
Great sound system that has am/fm, cassette, and 6cd changer in trunk.
Power everything
Moonroof
Nice tint on the windows
Aftermarket but tasteful wing
Mud flaps

Technical:
Engine: 4.4 litre 32-valve dohc all-aluminum v8 that produces 282hp and 310 lbft of torque.
This is the last year of the pre-VANOS v8 in the 540i, so no VANOS issues to deal with.
6-speed manual transmission
Rear Wheel Drive
 
Tires:
Kumho Ecsta in good condition
Front: 235/45R17
Rear: 255/40R17

Apple Watch watches your BMW i3, i8

Wed, Sep 10 2014

Apple unveiled details about its long-awaited Apple Watch yesterday and we now know that the $349, er, watch will be released to the public early next year. Amid the millions of features the watch has is the ability to provide real-time information on the battery charge level in a BMW i3 or i8 plug-in vehicle. The watches can also help locate the vehicles if, say, they're parked in a crowded lot. Because so many of us lose our Bimmers on a daily basis. BMW spokesman Dave Buchko confirmed the integration of the Bimmer-centric features on Apple Watch to AutoblogGreen, and noted that the product will let users monitor heating and air-conditioning as well as remotely unlocking the car. "This latest device has the potential to change how owners interact with their BMW, paving the way for a new level of personalization and immediacy," Buchko said. The new wrist-based connection allows for a nice bit of exposure for the German company's new i series. As of the end of last month, BMW had sold 2,082 i3 battery-electric vehicles in the US since starting domestic sales in May. It also sold nine of i8 plug-in hybrids in August, the first partial month for US sales.

Toyota close to licensing deal with BMW for fuel cell technology

Wed, 23 Jan 2013

For over a year now, we've been hearing about a potential partnership between Toyota and BMW on everything from sports cars to lithium-ion batteries, but one of the first cooperative projects between these two automakers could bring Toyota's hydrogen fuel cell technology to a BMW vehicle. Reuters is reporting that an announcement is likely to be made as soon as later this week regarding a BMW fuel cell vehicle that could be in production by 2020 with a prototype running around by 2015.
The last we heard of Toyota's fuel cell technology, it was in the FCV-R Concept that we saw at the 2011 Tokyo Motor Show, but there is no word how far along in development this system is. If it does come to fruition, such a vehicle for BMW would build on the automaker's commitment to hydrogen that started with the Hydrogen 7, which unlike a fuel cell vehicle, simply ran on hydrogen fuel rather than converting it to electricity for use in motors. We're definitely interested where this Toyota/BMW tie up could be headed.

Mini Countryman PHEV caught at electric watering hole

Fri, Jul 15 2016

Our spy photographers have once again found the next generation Mini Countryman out testing in the wild. This time, they caught it replenishing its thirst for electrons. Although we knew some sort of hybrid Countryman was coming, this confirms its existence and plug-in capabilities beyond any reasonable doubt. Like the rest of the Mini lineup, this new Countryman will be noticeably larger than its predecessor. It also appears to feature a larger, more aggressive grille and lower intake vents. Other than that, the car appears to be quite evolutionary in design. Our spy photographers expect the plug-in hybrid Countryman to debut in 2019 powered by a combination of the 1.5-liter turbocharged three-cylinder and an electric motor. We have also predicted that the gasoline engine could power the front wheels while the electric motor (or motors) powers the rear wheels, which together could provide all-wheel-drive and 240 horsepower.
