Outstanding 2002 BMW 540iAT Sport Wagon with rare color combination and M tech sport package from the factory. Powered by the venerable M62 V8 motor, this is the last 8 cylinder powered Station Wagon produced by BMW. My car is a particularly well maintained example of a rare car with many records and can connect you with previous owner and shop that maintained it for prior six years for those interested. You will look a long time before finding a better e39 540i Wagon with this combination of factory options. I have enjoyed this terrific car for 2 years and put 30,000 trouble free miles on driving mainly highway to our farm in central Illinois. I am a very fussy owner and attend to ALL maintainence more regularly than BMW recommends. Some upgrades include Bravarian Auto speakers, Dice Mediabridge integrated iPod/iPhone dock, Bluetooth/hands free, USB and AUX connection with Sirius SAT radio, all controllled thru M Tech steering wheel. Also I have Widescreen Navigation upgraded to the later (faster) BMW Mark IV DVD unit. A stiffer Eibach rear anti-roll bar has been installed and also installed were K&R front springs, but have reverted back to the factory springs (I will include K&R front springs and original anti-roll bar). New brakes (pads and rotors), radiator, fan clutch, water pump, thermostat, auxiliary fan, ALL control arms and thrust arms. New Bilstien shocks. New rear air springs. At 156,XXX miles this car still feels like it just came out of the factory and with BMW replacing the engine for the original owner at 48,000 miles (it is recorded in BMW computer system can confirm with the VIN# through your friendly Dealer). BMW also replaced the instrument cluster for the previous owner under warranty due to missing pixels in the display. You really need to think of this a is 100,000+ mile car due to the BMW short block replacement; it is in astonishingly good condition and drives fabulously. The history report will indicate one accident with the original owner where apparently the hood and passenger fender were replaced. I bought the car from AlphaCars in Boxborough, MA where they had serviced it for 6 years before I bought it at 127,XXX miles. I will also include the Black Powder Coated Racing Dynamic alloy wheels which are fitted with All Season tires. You can connect to my Skydrive on the following link http://sdrv.ms/OanA51 for 140+ photos including those taken in recently in March 2013 and also in 2012 with the K&R springs and 17x8.5 Racing Dynamic Forged Alloy wheels. Also on the Skydrive are all the receipts for the work done over the past 2 years. The pictures show the car with a slightly lowered front with the K&R springs, but as mentioned I have reverted to the original springs. Thanks for looking. Feel free to call or txt me, I am really looking for a BMW enthusiast who will appreciate the car, see make or best offer. I do have the car for sale locally and reserve the right to end this process and sell to a local buyer - James (312) 560 7980 / (e) evancook@msn.com . For 140+ pictures http://sdrv.ms/OanA51 .

BMW i3 wait list grows to six months
Tue, Feb 4 2014This could make one real expensive decision a little easier to make. The latest official word is that BMW remains undecided if or when it will expand its sub-brand of i plug-in vehicles beyond the i3 and i8, but the i3 city EV has certainly struck a chord in Europe. Citing BMW executive Ian Robertson, Automotive News Europe reports that the German automaker is running a six-month wait list for the i3, which started sales in Europe in November. Bimmer has taken about 11,000 orders globally, and about 1,200 of those are from the US, where the car will debut in May. BMW executive Harald Krueger recently said that the German automaker will hold off on making plans to broaden the i sub-brand until more sales results come in. That said, BMW has trademarked all of the single-digit "i" names from i1 through i9, so should these EVs remain popular, BMW has room to grow. We won't be surprised if we do see more vehicles, since BMW North America chief Ludwig Willisch is already on record as saying the US demand for the i3 will likely exceed supply this year. For a taste of why, check out our first drive here. Featured Gallery 2014 BMW i3 View 107 Photos News Source: Automotive News - sub. req. Green BMW Electric ev sales wait list
Next BMW X6 to be larger, more aggressive
Tue, 16 Apr 2013If the current BMW X6, introduced in 2008, is looking a bit too bland for your tastes, have no fear as the next-generation model is reportedly going to be larger and more aggressive than its predecessor.
Autocar is reporting that an insider has revealed the all-new second-generation X6 will make its world debut at the 2014 Moscow Motor Show, going on sale just after summer. More aggressive styling will help BMW distinguish its sportier X6 from BMW's more practical models, such as the X3 and X5, said the source.
The next X6 will again share platforms with the X5, but it will be stretched slightly to provide second-row passengers with more legroom. Powerplants will also likely mirror those of its mainstream cousin, including a range of turbocharged six- and eight-cylinder engines and a range-topping M model (the 2013 BMW X6 M is show above).
First BMW i8 in US sells for $825,000
Mon, Aug 18 2014Here are some numbers. The standard BMW i8 starts at starts at $135,700. The first i8 in the US was auctioned off at the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance this past weekend and the auctioneers, Gooding & Company, said before the gavel was lifted the fist time that they expected the i8 with unique Frozen Grey Metallic and other upgrades to raise between $150,000 and $200,000 for the Pebble Beach Company Foundation. Turns out, the car eventually sold for $825,000 to an unnamed buyer. Along with the honor of having the first i8 on these shores, the special plug-in hybrid comes with Dalbergia Brown leather upholstery, a set of Louis Vuitton luggage and something called a "professional edition" charging station along with laser headlights (subject to regulator approval). A number of other i8s were delivered to a few wealthy car shoppers who managed to make their way to Pebble Beach over the weekend, including automotive guru Roger Penske and Nest CEO Tony Fadell. The special edition was presented at the auction by Jay Leno and BMW North America president and CEO, Ludwig Willisch. You can't put a price on that. Just kidding. You can, and it's apparently $825,000.
