I have have performed some small touch-up paint fixes but these are not noticeable unless looking very closely. I have owned the M5 for slightly less than a year. I love the car but have recently purchased another sports car, so unfortunately, the M5 has to go. ** Carfax shows an accident around 26K miles if I remember correctly? I bought the car with about 60K and have experienced no evidence of the accident. My BMW mechanic sees nothing to cause him any concern also.

The engine sounds fantastic and pulls very strong. It is a true beast. I have the paperwork on all of the repairs / upgrades I've performed on the car. All work was done by a local BMW specialist. What I have done is the following:

o engine work required in order for the car to pass CT emissions, work performed, car passed with no problem

o 2 Mass Air Flow Sensors just replaced

o New Water Pump installed

o New Fuel Filter

o Air & Cabin Filters replaced

o Castrol Edge Synthetic oil change

o New right rear tail lamp installed

o New inner hood liner (insulation)

o The car came with a center armrest/car phone holder. It offered no storage. I installed a small storage compartment (meant for the M5)

All parts are BMW OEM, no generic, no-name parts used. I personally machine polished & waxed the car in Sep'13. 3 new OEM M5 refurbished wheels. Unmarked, like new., no curb rash or dings. One note on the wheels - they should all be "shadow line" which is kind of a gun-metal. I originally replaced 3 wheels in Jul'13 and I then replaced the 4th wheel this past October with a brand new non-refurb wheel. I didn't realize until after the 4th wheel was installed that it was the regular (lighter) colored silver. I will replace the left rear wheel with either a brand new refurb. or a new non-refurb as part of the sale. You are welcome to the wheel that is currently on the car also. If you do a search on refurbed BMW wheels, you'll find a few suppliers. The quality is outstanding and there is no difference in the appearance or quality of these wheels vs. a new, never used wheel. I used "Original Wheels" and "All Factory Wheels."

There are no error lights (check engine, etc.) at all. Also, there is no MP3 or iPod jack, but I have a cassette adapter that plugs into your phone to allow you to play your iTunes, Pandora, or even Sirius music (subscription required.) There is a 6 CD changer in the trunk that works sporadically, so I do not use it. Also, the car never came with a spare (from the factory), but I purchased a mini spare from a BMW parts specialists on-line. I have never used it and I can't be 100% sure it will fit, even though it was purchased as fitting an '01 M5. There is a little display pixelation which is common in the E39. It's not an issue imo, but on one of the mileage numbers, it is noticeable at times (not for all numbers.)

Note: I have the blue part of the BMW roundels colored in red. These are simply vinyl inserts that you or I can peel off. There was no glue used in the process and the original roundel is underneath. If you're looking for an extremely clean E39 M5, I'm confident you would be very happy with this one. Thanks

Payment is due in 7 days, no warranty.

NHTSA releases updated Takata airbag recalled cars list, but it still has errors

Wed, 22 Oct 2014

Unfortunately, the government's list still contains errors.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued an updated list of vehicle models that it's urging owners to repair under the mushrooming Takata airbag inflator recall. The latest version adds vehicles from new automakers like Subaru and Ford that are missing from the original announcement, and it also removes erroneous entries from General Motors, leaving only the 2005 Saab 9-2X (a reskinned Subaru WRX), and the 2003-2005 Pontiac Vibe, a joint project with Toyota.

2016 Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance: It's all in the details

Mon, Aug 22 2016

It's no secret that Pebble Beach is an ode to gorgeous, and mostly, classic cars. The car show may be a place for automakers to showcase extremely expensive cars to wealthy buyers, but it's also one of the go-to places for enthusiasts that love automobiles and culture. While it's easy to be overwhelmed by the overall beauty of a car, the real magic often needs closer inspection to be realized. Every car at Pebble Beach is a work of art, but the true beauty of the vehicles lies in the details. And Autoblog's photographer, Drew Phillips, managed to capture the details on some gorgeous cars. From the Lamborghini Miura's exquisite steering wheel to Rolls-Royce's Spirit of Ecstasy, it's all at Pebble Beach. We think the details on some of the cars are prettier than the cars themselves, but don't take our word for it. Check out the beautiful gallery above and enjoy the tiny bits and pieces behind some of the prettiest cars in the world.

2019 Volvo V60 vs. wagon competitors: How they compare on paper

Thu, Feb 22 2018

The next-gen Volvo V60 was finally revealed this week. The outgoing model has been on sale since 2011, getting a few minor updates along the way. The new model is based off Volvo's Scalable Platform Architecture that underpins other models like the XC90 and XC60 crossovers and V90 wagon. The V60 will launch with two engines, with a powerful hybrid coming sometime down the line. Since the last V60 hit the market, Audi, Buick and BMW have all released their own flavor of wagon. Like Volvo, BMW sells a traditional sedan-based model. Audi and Buick's wagons are both high-riding models with some very slight off-road pretense, much like Volvo's Cross Country models. We don't have details on the upcoming V60 Cross Country, but, even when accounting for ground clearance, the V60, BMW 3 Series Sport Wagon, A4 Allroad and Buick Regal TourX have a lot of overlap. Check out the specs breakdown below. Discover and compare other wagons and crossovers with our Car Finder and Compare tools. Engines, transmissions and drivetrains Out of the four wagons, the new V60 is the only one that offers two-wheel drive and a hybrid variant. The base V60 T5 uses a 250-horsepower turbocharged 2.0-liter inline four and sends power to the front wheels. Stepping up to the V60 T6 nets buyers an additional 66 horsepower thanks to a twincharged — supercharged and turbocharged Â— 2.0-liter and all-wheel drive. A T8 model that uses a 390-horsepower plug-in hybrid powertrain will be available soon. All V60s use an eight-speed automatic. The Audi, BMW and Buick are all powered by 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-fours. Additionally, the 3 Series has a 2.0-liter turbo diesel. All three wagons have standard all-wheel drive. The BMW and Buick use an eight-speed automatic, while the Audi sends power through a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission. As base engines go, there's a four-horsepower difference between the most and least powerful models, though the Buick wins out on torque. The V60 T6 matches the Regal TourX's torque figure and trounces every competitor's horsepower rating. The V60 T8 packs more power and torque than any of the competition. Cargo and interior space The outgoing V60 was on the small side for a wagon. This new model rectifies that a bit, though its 48.2 cubic-feet of cargo space with the second-row folded is still substantially smaller than the competition.
