Black 2010 Bmw M5 E60 S85 With Recently Replaced Smg, So No Surprises In Store on 2040-cars
Birmingham, Michigan, United States

This is a beautiful example of an M5. It has high miles for it's age at ~60,000 miles, but has been highway driven early in it's life. My friends can't believe it's got that many miles after seeing it. Only a few thousand miles a year in the last two years. I was only allowed to put 24 pictures up, but have more available upon request. It is black ventilated leather on the inside (and they really cover everything in leather on the M5, not just the seats. It's quite luxurious feeling really). It is black sapphire metallic in color so doesn't show carwash swirl marks like a flat black one would. This has the Olive Ash Wood interior, which is much classier than the aluminum standard trim in my opinion. See the pictures for yourself, but they don't do it justice. Some options: -rear and rear passenger sun shades. The rear is powered and the 4 side ones are manual. -Technology package (not sure what that is) -Climate package (not sure what that is) -heads up display (nice, but not critical) -Ventilated front seats (nice, not critical) -Automatic high beam headlights (I've never really figured these out) -Adaptive Headlights that swivel in turns (great feature) -Comfort Access Keyless Entry (DO NOT buy any BMW without this!) -Soft close doors (really useless feature unless you're 80 years old and too weak to close a door) -Multifunction seats (adjustable in many many ways. even the seat back has a hinge in the middle for extra adjustability. If you can't get comfortable in this seat, you're not human) I had the SMG pump and sensor go on me, which everyone talks about, but is rather unpleasant at $5,482.22. But for you, that takes all the guessing out of this car as it's just replaced by a BMW dealer and as such, now has a 2 year unlimited mileage warranty on it. I'm selling it because it's really not my type of car. I bought it because a neighbor had one and raved about it, but I'm just not that spirited a driver. So to me, the engine doesn't feel very powerful since I don't rev it high, and the transmission isn't smooth since I typically use automatic mode. My neighbor drives a little more spiritedly and paddle shifts, so it that's you, then you'll love this car. If you're just looking for an attractive, all-options luxury car, you shouldn't buy this car. I've had a 335 and a 540. I think I'll go back to their equivalent. I may also list this locally if I get around to it, so there's a chance that I sell it locally and have to cancel the bid. I'll probably wait a couple of days and see if there's much bidding before deciding to list it. But please don't complain if I take the listing down for that reason. The car certainly has some nice features. The Alacantra roof liner is quite striking and gives a real air of disctinction to the car. The wheels are classy but large, immediately differentiating this car from other 5-series. The whole stance of the car is menacing without being over the top about it. Lovely really, and it gets many compliments and looks of awe or jealousy. The critical elements of Seat and Steering Wheel are fantastic - The best I've ever felt. Even the cruise control was a pleasant surprise with some nice little features that let you jump up or down by 5mph. When you do accelerate quickly, especially after pressing the intimidatingly labeled "M-Mode", the car becomes alive. The seats grab you, the HUD shows a tachometer and speed on the windshield in bright colors and the engine seems to double in size. The sound on this mode is quite glorious too, but it's quite a fast car, so you don't really have many opportunities to do this beyond the odd on-ramp. The one time I was driving home after beeing at work late, an M3 took off from the stop light. Since there was nobody around, I pressed the trusty M-Mode and jumped after him and past him. We were both laughing, or perhaps giggling by the time I'd passed him in a thunderous roar. Great fun, but not the kind of thing I ought to repeat. It really made me appreciate this beast's power though. I had a Cadillac CTS-V roar past me the other day, but he seemed too serious about the whole thing, so I let him rip along. Contrasting the sound of this M5 to his car was quite striking. His car sounded like it was 2000 rpm past the redline whereas the M5 at full boil sounds stolen from a Formula 1 car. It's not that big thumping v8 sound, just a highly technical, full and ferocious sound. It is a tough decision to sell it, but the car just doesn't make sense for a driver like me. On Oct-19-13 at 09:10:40 PDT, seller added the following information: +++ THIS HAS A CLEAR TITLE +++ I don't know why AutoCheck reports a loan on the car. I paid in cash and have a clear Michigan title in hand. I called eBay, but they told me to call AutoCheck on Monday. |

Ward's announces 10 Best Engines 2015
Wed, Dec 10 2014Ward's Auto has named its 10 Best Engines for 2015, covering a range of powerplants from fuel-sippers to fire-breathers. As with past years, forced-induction reigns supreme, with seven of the ten engines featuring a turbo or supercharger. This year is slightly different, though, as two of the seven blown engines are turbocharged three-cylinder mills, from the Ford Fiesta and Mini Cooper. They're joined by the 2.0-liter turbo four from the Volvo S60, the 1.8-liter turbo four from the Volkswagen Jetta and the 2.0-liter boxer from the Subaru WRX. BMW and Chrysler were the only marques to be named to this year's list twice, with the electric motor from the i3 joining the Mini's three-pot, and the 3.0-liter turbodiesel V6 in the Ram 1500 and Jeep Grand Cherokee repping the diesel crowd, alongside a certain supercharged monster. Hyundai also took a prize with a zero-emissions powertrain, with the Tucson FCV's 100-kilowatt fuel cell making the list (apparently Ward's is quite generous with what it deems an "engine"). Rounding out the list are two Autoblog favorites, each displacing 6.2 liters, but producing their power very differently. On the one hand, Chevrolet's overhead-valve, 455-horsepower V8, found in the Corvette, makes its power the old fashioned way. And in the other corner, we have one of the most exciting engines of the year – the 707-hp, 6.2-liter, supercharged Hellcat V8, featured so prominently in the Dodge Challenger and Charger SRT Hellcat. "We spend a lot of time reading the powertrain tea leaves throughout the auto industry, and we're proud that this year's list is a microcosm of all the latest innovation coming from automakers," said Ward's Editor-in-Chief Drew Winter in a statement. "It's not just a list for enthusiasts or for environmentalists," he says. "There's something for every vehicle shopper and every budget. All the powertrains on this list deliver a first-rate driving experience," Winter added. Scroll down for the full list from Ward's, and let us know which engines you think belong and which should have been included in this year's rankings. Ward's 10 Best Engines of 2015 Announced by Penton's WardsAuto Honorees span most diverse and technically advanced engines in 21 years of recognized powertrain excellence SOUTHFIELD, Mich., Dec. 10, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Penton's Wards 10 Best Engines of 2015 have been announced.
Top Gear's latest trailer shows off a golden Bugatti Chiron
Thu, Feb 23 2017Top Gear is returning on March 5, and after a lackluster first series with the new hosts, the new group seems determined not to hit a sophomore slump. Chris Evans is gone, and the latest teaser trailer shows the new trio of Matt LeBlanc, Chris Harris, and Rory Reid strapped into some pretty fantastic cars, including the Bugatti Chiron and the Ford GT. All of the typical Top Gear segments appear to be present, though the quick cuts don't give us many details. The trailer shows a copious amount of powerslides from an assortment of cars, and even Chris Harris racing around Daytona. Aside from the Bugatti and Ford, cars from Porsche, Lamborghini, Ferrari, BMW, Aston Martin, and Alfa Romeo are all present. Co-hosts Eddie Jordan and Sabine Schmitz don't appear at all, so it seems their roles may be downplayed to focus on three guys, as was the case pre-reboot. We have some hope for this re-relaunched show and will be keeping an eye out for more details in the lead-up to the series premiere.

BMW mulling potential 9 Series production
Mon, Jan 5 2015Nine months may be long enough to bring another human being into the world, but it may take BMW a bit longer to make up its mind on the production of a potential 9 Series model. The idea was first mooted when the Bavarian automaker presented the Vision Future Luxury concept at the Beijing Motor Show last year. Billed (not unlike rival Audi's Prologue concept) more as a design study than a pre-production concept, the Vision Future Luxury show car nevertheless took a larger form than the 7 Series, prompting speculation that a new flagship sedan could be in the works. The better part of a year later, such a decision has reportedly yet to be taken, but over at BMW Blog they're reporting that the automaker's incoming chief executive Harald Kruger is a fan of the idea and could give it the green light after he takes the helm in May. If approved, the model likely to be dubbed 9 Series would reportedly compete with the Mercedes-Maybach S600 – but then that model was earmarked to take on the Rolls-Royce Ghost. BMW has typically been careful not to overlap with its Rolls-Royce division, but considering how it's also been going downmarket with front-drive models to close the gap to the Mini brand, we wouldn't be all that surprised to see the 9 Series positioned maybe just below the next-generation Ghost and developed alongside it, taking a page out of rival VW's playbook. Volkswagen has, after all, made a brisk business out of sharing platforms and slicing market segments between the various brands under its umbrella. And while BMW is nowhere near as large, its new leadership could find new ways to increase its market share.
