2005 Bmw 645ci Base Coupe 2-door 4.4l on 2040-cars
Denver, Colorado, United States
AOL wrote an excellent review (below) on this model that describes the vehicle perfectly - please read the entire review to know this car. The BMW 6 Series delivers stellar performance, brilliant
handling, and that arrow-like stability that marks this marque. The 6 Series is a true grand touring car,
unique in the BMW line-up, and qualify as an ultimate driving machine, yet can
be driven all day in perfect comfort. They
offer greater luxury and comfort than the Z4 sports car, yet with higher
performance, more agile handling, and sportier styling than the 5 Series sports
sedans. Options on this model include: heated front seats ($500); head-up display
($1,000); the Sport Package ($2,800) adding active steering, 19-inch sport
wheels with run-flat tires, and sport seats; and a Premium Sound Package
($1,800) includes Logic7 audio with six-disc CD changer. Leather upholstery, a choice of rich interior trim, and a
long list of luxury features are standard, including a sports suspension,
18-inch wheels, xenon adaptive headlamps, and park-assist. It comes standard with adaptive headlamps that
aim toward the inside of a corner as the steering wheel is turned. This helps
throw light around bend when cornering, reducing shadows and improving
visibility for the driver. The iDrive system features a big knob mounted on the center
console that controls navigation, the audio system, climate controls, and other
secondary functions. Various functions
can be selected by sliding the big knob left or right, forward or aft, then
turning it like a knob to work through menus displayed on a monitor on the
center stack, and pressing down on the knob to select options. The head-up display projects speed,
navigational information, cruise control status and other data onto the
windshield. The trunk is relatively large and can hold two sets of golf
clubs. The BMW badge on the rear serves as the latch for the trunk. The trunk
lid pops open fully when the button on the remote key fob is pressed. BMW's 4.4-liter V8 delivers 325 horsepower and 330
pound-feet of torque. The 3,781-pound
coupe with the six-speed manual gearbox transmission can accelerate from 0 to
60 mph in 5.5 seconds, according to BMW. The manual gearbox is smooth and precise, easy
to shift, with easy clutch pedal effort; it's lighter than the six-speed used
in the BMW M3. In short, the six-speed
manual is an excellent choice. The
32-valve V8 benefits from Valvetronic variable valve timing and variable lift;
breathing is controlled entirely by the valves. (Technically, there is no
throttle, so the pedal on the right is more accurately called an accelerator.) It's a fascinating engine for engineers and
car buffs with technological marvels such as its Double VANOS steplessly
variable intake- and exhaust-valve timing. But the bottom line is that there's lots of
power throughout the rev range, so the 645Ci responds quickly and precisely in
any situation. It's also an efficient
engine, so energy is not wasted but is instead channeled into fuel-efficient
power. The engine sounds great, emitting
a guttural roar under hard acceleration through its nicely tuned exhaust
system. The 6 Series cars ride lower than the 5 Series. A 645Ci is
absolutely joyful on a winding road. Handling is precise, with a superb
self-centering feel to the steering. It
goes around high-speed turns like it's on rails. It can be driven very hard into tight corners.
The suspension is tuned to minimize
undesirable behavior when braking hard, accelerating hard, or lifting off the
gas while cornering. Active Roll
Stabilization dramatically reduces body roll in cornering. As the car turns corners, the anti-roll bars
are twisted by little hydraulic motors, so the 645Ci leans very little, even in
hard cornering. In addition to
increasing driver confidence, the system improves handling over bumps,
increases cornering capability, and improves steering response. |

Mini has become the Rover that BMW always wanted
Tue, Oct 27 2015BMW has been working for 20 years to build a successful line of British cars, and on the evidence of the second-generation Mini Clubman, it may have finally done it. That means it's time for all of us to get used to the fact that Minis aren't going to be that small anymore. Case in point is this new Mini Clubman, introduced last month and conspicuous by its size. Many of us who've pointed to BMW's stewardship of Mini as an example of retro done right bemoaned the Countryman subcompact SUV – a concept actually ahead of its time. The Coupe and Roadster, perhaps rightfully, deserved (and received) an eye roll. But now there's a so-called four-door hardtop that went on sale this year and this forthcoming, six-door Clubman that approaches the compact hatchback class in size. These vehicles actually look like practical moves at keeping buyers from defecting to larger cars made by someone else, rather than vain attempts at maximizing investment in a set of parts. And in an interesting twist, Mini is turning into one of its ancestors – minus the feeling of inevitable doom. Many of us were led to believe somewhere since Mini's relaunch about 15 years ago that the brand would be a stepping stone into the greater BMW fold. But in reality, it's done exactly the opposite, creating a parallel brand for those not willing to embrace the BMW image, but leaning heavily on British nostalgia. That was sort of the reasoning used when BMW pulled the Rover Group of England away from a fruitful partnership with Honda in 1994 and absorbed it all. In the consolidate-or-die '90s, it made sense. BMW had a small, but successful, line of sedans. Rover had no success outside of Western Europe (its last US attempt at selling cars, the Sterling, ended three years earlier). Yet its Land Rover line of SUVs was just right for the time and the 35-year-old Mini still had image-conscious clout. With every passing day, the brilliance of BMW's move to abandon Rover in 2000 seems brighter. Even ditching Land Rover made sense in the long run (and probably saved Jaguar in the process). With every passing day, the brilliance of BMW's move to abandon Rover in 2000 seems brighter. During a chat with Mini USA VP David Duncan this summer, it became clear the Mini of the past is probably gone. A small, city-sized Mini is not necessarily off the table, but larger and more profitable models are coming first.
Jay Leno puts focus on some retro-inspired BMW bikes
Mon, 28 Jul 2014Jay Leno puts eight wheels on display this week for Jay Leno's Garage from a quartet of retro-inspired BMW motorcycles. They are the creations of husband and wife team Larry and Carol Romestant, who build each one in their home garage.
Larry is a former aerospace engineer who loves BMW bikes, especially the K models. Now, he's combining his passion with a real talent for fabrication to build his own cycles with his wife. With Larry and Carol the only ones working on these projects, it takes them six to nine months to build each one. In addition to the old-school looks, the motorcycles are supposed to be a bit more user friendly than stock. For example, one of them ditches the standard five-speed gearbox in favor of a six-speed unit to be a little more comfy when cruising at high speeds.
Since there isn't enough time to take all four of them for a ride, Jay picks his favorite to test out on the open road. Scroll down to see which one he chooses.
