I'm selling my pride and joy 2001 BMW 540i Sport Wagon with Authentic Alpina Package and other extras. I have the pink slip in hand and the car has a clean title, no accidents.
The car is a prime example of how clean and well maintained a sought after BMW should be. It's very clean and runs very well and strong. According to BMW it is 1 of 406 made in 2001 but I don't know the count for actual sport models made in 2001, I'm assuming it's a small list.
All of the main maintenance needed on a E39 540 4.4 V8 have been done and taken care of. The car has had a preventative engine overhaul and will be fine for at least another 80k miles engine wise. I have the maintenance history for the time I have owned the car as well. The car has no mechanical issues besides the signs of wear that come with a 10+ year old car. The car comes from a car (BMW) enthusiast who has meticulously taken care of the car. She rolls smooth with no shakes. The car is adult owned.
My car was also featured in Frank Ocean's album teaser last year. Email me for the youtube link to view the video.
Here is a list of the parts on the car:
Authentic Alpina bumper spoiler
Authentic 20" Alpina Softline wheels (tires are 5 months new)
Custom exhaust with custom made quad Alpina muffler tips
BC Racing 30 way adjustable coilovers for comfort or sportiness on your demand (you can adjust to your preference)
Akebono brake pads (low dust and keeps wheels spotless)
iPod/ iPhone hook up
10" Kicker subwoofer and 400w Kicker crossover amp for subwoofer (made for speaker)
Model description
Titanium Silver exterior
Gray sport interior
Sport seats
with wood trim
M steering wheel
Tiptronic tranny
Self leveling rear suspension
4.4 V8
My car is probably the only 540 sport wagon with real Alpina parts in the US, I think. I don't know of any other around like this one here in the USA and I'm a car enthusiast.
Without some parts we can negotiate another price. But the car will come with all oem parts that were removed, including the 17" style 32 wheels and tires plus suspension parts and the stock resonator.
Price $12,900 obo (with all the extras which are worth over $6,000)
I prefer cash if you are a local buyer here in Southern California but wire transfer and paypal will work as well. I'm also open to showing the vehicle to local buyers.
Any offer is a good offer, just call me so we can talk about it or buy it now though ebay : )

BMW bringing special Horse Edition 7 Series to Beijing
Thu, 10 Apr 2014The Beijing Motor Show is just a couple of weeks away, and BMW wouldn't miss out on the opportunity to show off its latest wares to one of its most vital markets. So when the doors open in Beijing, BMW will showcase the new 2 Series Active Tourer, 2 Series Coupe, M3 and M4, 4 Series Gran Coupe and X4. It will also introduce the i3 and i8 to China for the first time. But those are all models we've seen already. What's new is... wait for it... the 7 Series Horse Edition.
Not celebrating horses so much as the Year of the Horse, this special edition 7 Series is based on the long-wheelbase model and comes with all manner of M equipment packages, a special paint job from BMW Individual and unique touches inside and out. BMW isn't saying which engine it features, but it sells the series in China in 730Li, 740Li, 750Li, 760Li and ActiveHybrid forms, with rear- or all-wheel drive. Given that the one pictured is wearing an xDrive badge, it would have to be either the 740Li or 750Li, but buyers will presumably be able to order it in whichever spec they desire.
While it may not be as exciting as the 9 Series concept BMW is rumored to have lined up for the Beijing show as well, you can bet that the Bavarian automaker will find plenty of buyers for this extra-special, extra-Chinese, extra-equestrian luxury sedan, and command a healthy premium from each and every one of them.
Recharge Wrap-up: Batty battery covers, Mercedes at Silvretta, new Hyundai Sonata Hybrid available in 2015
Tue, Jul 8 2014Apparently, Chevrolet Volt battery covers make suitable homes for bats. As part of an Eagle Scout project, Matthew Netherland created 30 bat houses out of scrapped Volt battery covers donated by Chevy. 22 of the bat houses will be set up near hydroelectric dams in Michigan. Each bat house will accommodate 100 bats, and divert the scrapped materials from the landfill. The battery covers also make great nesting boxes for wood ducks, which General Motors has previously set up at its Milford, Michigan Proving Ground. Last weekend was the Silvretta E-Auto Rally, which saw emissions-free vehicles cross the Montafon Mountains in Austria, including cars from Mercedes-Benz. These cars included the B-Class Electric Drive, B-Class F-Cell, SLS AMG Electric Drive and even the Smart Fortwo Electric Drive. Also on hand for the Silvretta Classic Rally was a V8-powered C111, a 1978 Mercedes-Benz 450 SLC and 300 SL Roadster. Read more in the press release, below. BMW has finalized pricing for the i8 in the US at $135,700 (plus $925 in destination charges). In addition to the base price tag, which we've known for a while, BMW Blog has the complete pricing guide with options and packages. Most of the i8 orders were the Pure Impulse World package, which includes various aesthetic upgrades. It also provides membership to the BMW i Pure Impulse Program, which allows you to "to enjoy innovative ideas and trends in a variety of areas, including home styling, culture, gourmet gastronomy, design and many more." Head over to BMW Blog for more information. The new generation of the Hyundai Sonata Hybrid will arrive later than the rest of the model lineup, confirms Car and Driver. While the gas-powered Sonatas get updated now for the 2015 model year, the Hybrid remains unchanged until late this year or early 2015, when it will arrive as a 2016 model. Hyundai is offering a 2015 Sonata Eco edition, but with 28 miles per gallon in the city and 38 mpg highway (32 combined), it's not quite as appealing as the current Sonata Hybrid's 36/40/38 figures. Read more here. In June, average US fuel economy was 25.5 miles per gallon, making it the fifth straight month above 25 mpg, according to University of Michigan. The average window sticker ratings from vehicles sold in June dropped slightly from 25.6 mpg in May. The year started at 24.9 mpg in January, and hasn't dropped below 25 mpg since.
BMW raises pricing on many models
Wed, 02 Oct 2013Buyers interested in a new BMW will start paying a bit more for their Ultimate Driving Machines, beginning yesterday. The Munich, Germany-based manufacturer has announced price hikes across nearly its entire range, covering model years 2013 and 2014, that will sting higher-end customers in particular.
Price increases are enough to get any consumer riled up, but the incremental nature of BMW's increase makes it a bit easier to swallow. All 1 Series and remaining 3 Series Convertibles (including the M3 Convertible) will see a $300 increase in price. All current-generation F30 3 Series, 5 Series GT and X3 crossovers will get their price bumped by $200. $500 increases are coming for the 6 Series range (not including the M6), while the diminutive X1 gets just a $100 increase.
Cars on the losing end of the price hikes include the newest M cars, the M5 and M6 Coupe, Convertible and Gran Coupe, which are being bumped $2,000. BMW is adding $1,000 to the sticker of all Z4s and the entire X6 range, including the X6M.
