Hello and thanks for looking at my M5.  This is an original California M5 with a clean CARFAX showing 12X,XXX miles and no accidents!!  I purchased it out of California and brought it to Indiana.  It is garage kept, and has never seen the winter weather.  This car is in amazing condition, NOT PERFECT, but very clean, and none of the typical corrosion found on mid west M5's.  I looked at 8 M5's before I decided to purchase this one because it was so clean even under the hood AND on the underside of the car.  The ORIGINAL paint is beautiful all over with very little wear (see PICS) with the exception of the hood.  The previous owner painted the hood because of typical rock chips.  The hood is not the same quality at the factory paint, but matches well and looks acceptable from 10 feet.  I tried to show this is the pictures, but you can really only see it if you are close up and in person.  It is a good color match, and smooth, but the clear coat seems to have a dull look.  All other issues are fairly minor.  There is a crack and a small piece missing on the corner of the front bumper, the inside rear view mirror has a dark spot covering 70% of the bottom of the mirror - see pics - it is still usable, I'm just covering all defects... There is also a small 2" x 4" vinyl cover missing on the back of the console, and there is no owners manual.  The previous owner was unable to locate it.  The interior has typical wear for a BMW CARAMEL INTERIOR of this vintage.  There are no tears or major damage, but there is leather wear, finish cracking, and other wear from use and getting in and out of the vehicle.  The pictures show all the wear clearly so please take a close look.  I like the look of well worn leather, but if you want perfect leather, you need to move on to another car..  The carpet is in good condition but could use a good shampoo and deep cleaning to make it look like new.  The mats are worn,  but do their job, and are not ratty..  The WHEELS are the cleanest M5 wheels of that vintage I have ever seen.  Nice factory finish, not bent, very very minor nicks here and there, and very straight.  They ride like a dream on the NEW NITTO MOTIVO tires all the way around (less than 4K miles), and handle excellent!  New battery last week, and the previous owner installed a UUC Evo3 short shifter, UUC lightweight flywheel, new clutch, new brakes, new control arm bushings, and new VANOS SOLENOID Seals (all performed at 121k miles).  Oil change 4K miles ago with Castrol full synthetic.  
HERE IS A WALK AROUND VIDEO TO TAKE A CLOSER LOOK.

 
OK, I did my best to give every possible issue, an honest description of the condition, and a list of current service that has been performed.  I am not aware of any other issues and I would take this car anywhere without concern. I just took a 500 mile round trip and loved every minute of it!!!  BUT, I am selling the car in AS-IS condition so I strongly encourage any serious buyer to arrange a personal inspection before you buy.  I will also honor my description - any one that buys the car has 3 days to inspect the car BEFORE delivery.  If there is any major issue not as I described, I will cancel the sale.  Major issues would be an engine knock, or an engine miss, a damaged body, or a bad transmission, or, yada, yada - not a rock chip behind the rear tire that I didn't describe - you get the picture.  This is a great example of a 2000 M5, not perfect, but I can't imagine any BMW M5 shopper being unhappy in any way when they inspect this car.  It is VERY FAST, VERY smooth, Has seemingly UNLIMITED TORQUE, VERY COMFORTABLE with Ice Cold AC, power everything, GPS, CD, AM/FM, Cassette, Power Sun Roof, Heated Seats, Cruise Control, Power Sport Seats, and more, - VERY TIGHT 6 Speed Manual Shift Transmission, Some of the BEST BRAKES EVER, and a gas pedal that allows you to kick pretty much everything else's butt if you are so inclined!!  I have a copy of the previous California title that shows no miles on the title because California considers any car over 10 years of age exempt on miles, but the previous owner sold me the car with 121XXX actual miles (as shown on the California title paperwork), CARFAX shows my M5 has original miles with no title problems.  The Indiana title will show the car is exempt because it came from California with no miles on the title-- so I am selling the car with exempt miles on the title because of ignorant government rules, but actual miles according to the previous owner, actual CARFAX experts that show history reflecting 125XXX actual miles have been documented on this car.  WHEW, I am done with all that.  Feel free to send me your number to discuss the car, and look for a video walk around on the car to give any potential buyer a little better "live view" of the M5 running, and close ups of the condition described above.
I am asking $14,500 or best offer.  It would be very difficult to find a better color combination or better running and driving M5!!  Thanks for looking and Happy Bidding!!

BMW Pininfarina Gran Lusso Coupe and Concept 90 pics from Villa d'Este

Thu, 30 May 2013

Royalty and the ultra-wealthy rubbed damp shoulders at this past weekend's Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este on the shores of Italy's Lake Como, but even the rain couldn't extinguish the excitement generated by the millions of dollars of cars and bikes on display. Nowhere was this more true than with BMW, which marked the occasion with the reveal of two stunning concepts with six wheels between them - the shark-nosed Pininfarina Gran Lusso Coupe and the retrosexual Concept 90 motorcycle.
Conceived with Italian design house Pininfarina, the Gran Lusso Coupe is a power broker on 21-inch wheels. While we're not completely sold on every element of its design, this twelve-cylinder two-door concept moves us more than the current 6 Series, and not just because it has four more cylinders underhood and 48,000-year-old kauri wood paneling inside. BMW is sadly mum on production hopes, but we're not entirely optimistic - the company has graced us with a number of attractive concepts at Villa d'Este before, only to pack them away again without ever affording them a production future.
If one of these concepts has a better shot at finding its way into dealers, we have to believe it's the Concept 90 under the BMW Motorrad umbrella. Designed to celebrate the 40th anniversary of BMW's R 90 S, we think this Roland Sands Design air-cooled boxer would look fantastic on today's streets, especially with the rising popularity of vintage motorcycles and cafe racers.

On Location in California with BMW and Mini

Thu, Feb 25 2016

A mid-winter escape from frigid Michigan to drive a trio of new BMW and Mini products? It'd be a busy couple of days, but you can't argue with Southern California in February. The temperatures in LA, where we drove the Mini Cooper S Convertible, hovered in the mid-80s, and it was solidly in the 70s further north, at Monterey, where we drove the M2 and X4 M40i. The highlight of the trip was Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca, which is a rewarding track to drive in a street car. The M2 was a blast there. The canyon roads above Malibu in the Mini were a close second, but even the lazy drive down the PCH to Big Sur was a blast. More important is the California state of mind we were in when driving all three of these cars. I've spent a lot of time in this state, and it has a complicated relationship with the car – and there's also a huge difference in attitude between the greater Bay Area and Southern California. Ample sun and twisty roads clash with image-consciousness, eco-consciousness, and brutal urban gridlock, and each BMW dealt with that paradox admirably, in its own way. Take a quick jaunt to California with me and check out the locations and experiences that helped form our impressions of these vehicles: the 2016 BMW M2 First Drive, the 2016 Mini Cooper S Convertible First Drive, and the 2016 BMW X4 M40i Quick Spin.

Mazda6, Honda CR-V and an Autoblogger's BMW Z3 | Autoblog Podcast #620

Fri, Mar 27 2020

In this week's Autoblog Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by West Coast Editor James Riswick and Road Test Editor Zac Palmer. First, they talk about the cars that have been in their driveways, like the Mazda6, Lexus UX 250h and Honda CR-V, as well as Riswick's own BMW Z3 (where he actually recorded the podcast from). Then they discuss the news, which includes car dealers moving to digital commerce and other updates about — you guessed it — coronavirus, and how it's affecting the automotive industry. Finally, they take to Twitter to help a follower choose a weekend convertible for long, isolated drives in this week's "Spend My Money" segment.
