I always get 18 mpg combined city (driving around omaha) / 22 mpg highway (at 70 mph cruise control setting)
I put a lot of information here for a couple of reasons.
-
1. I have worked on German (BMW, Porsche, VW) cars since the late '80s (over 25 years now) and know tons about them.
2. I want you to have all the information at your disposal, so you make the most informed decision.
3. I genuinely want you to enjoy this X5 for a long time. It has TONS to offer, and I have done the work that keeps these running well.
4. Whomever wins will have my email address. As with ANY car I have ever sold, you can reach back to me 6 months or 6 years later with your BMW questions. I am a resource with as much experience as any dealer technician, and I can save you lots of money in the long run. I don't ever let other mechanics touch my cars.

Please take the time to read and digest this ad and use it in comparison to other BMWs. It will help you understand the items of concern that others leave out of their ads.

How reliable you ask? My wife is a travel health care worker. I drive this hundreds or thousands of miles to see her every month. It is VERY reliable as I would not risk the long trips if it were not. This is also why I am 100% confident in delivering it to you as per my ending-auction/radius delivery statement below. I decided to use my 530i for travel instead, it gets better highway mileage.

I drive in and around Omaha, Nebraska and get 18 miles per gallon running only premium (no ethanol) gas doing errands and going to and from work. I get 22 miles per gallon on the highway when I drive to see my wife in her travels around the US. On the highway I use the cruise control right at 70mph on the speedo, and get 22mpg like clockwork. I even recently towed the uhaul small enclosed 4x8 trailer loaded fully, and I still got 18.5 mpg at 65 miles per hour on the highway!! I was thrilled. So if you are pulling a waverunnuer or smaller item, you'll still likely get 20mpg if you keep your speed at 70 mph. I just put the 4 and 7 pin trailer electronics in it in July. It never had the electronics before, so I am certain heavier things were never towed. Likely just bike racks since any trailer would have legally needed the electronics for the trailer.

CLEAN TITLE is in my hands and in my name, this car is NOT A SALVAGE vehicle, no flood or major accident damage. There is a fender bender on record back in 2009 right before I bought it. Front bumper was repainted and one headlight was replaced (OEM BMW light). That's the only accident damage of any sort. Feel free to run the CARFAX (VIN: WBAFA53581LP24656) as you will find the same. I want you to know what sold me when I first bought this X5 back in 2009. The carfax showed a bunch of owners, but in the glove were receipts from a Mr. Sosa, and the receipts from day one were in his name with addresses from each of the places he lived while moving around with the military. He was an Army officer that moved all over the US. I was the 2nd owner! It was obvious to me as a mechanic how well he took care of it.

Payment must be FULLY CLEARED before anyone gets keys or title.

*Delivery terms:

ending price $6,000-$7000 = I will deliver up to 100 miles from zip 68102
ending price $7,000-$8,000 = I will deliver up to 200 miles from zip 68102

I also WILL NOT DELIVER until AFTER funds have been received and confirmed through the ebay system (Paypal, or any system direclty tied to ebay, through ebay, an NO OTHER SOURCE)
I also work days M-F at my job, and I will therefore deliver on a weekend that we arrange, ideally within 14 calendar days AFTER full payment (not auction end) has been received and confirmed.
I might also tow my motorcycle out to you with a rented u-haul and ride back if there are no good bus or plane deals to get me back home, so I may pick you up and we'll head to the nearest u-haul dealer to drop that trailer off. We'll see how the auction goes.
-
Reason for selling: I have my next project and can let this one go, also, I am getting furloughed, and I don't really need two cars and a motorcycle for just me.

This is a 2001 BMW X5 3.0L Automatic, All Wheel Drive
This is the straight 6 cyl engine that has made BMW a world leader in
performance. The 3.0 gets much better gas mileage than the 4.4
and lets face it, everybody needs better gas mileage. It still has
LOTS of pep in it.

in gear a little longer before shifting for that sporty ride or in
traffic so you are not braking as much.

will give it to you if you buy the X5 (I love having good records on
the vehicle). Carfax shows Accident reported on 04/19/2009. It got

There are a few quirks. You'll find some with any used car. Here are the ones I know of:
-Fuel gauge never read correctly, even after I put in the new fuel pump and assembly. So don't trust the the dial. Reset trip counter and always fill up before 300. 250 to be safe
-Radio pixels are about 75% gone common BMW radio issue. Works fine but looks crappy. Mileage pixels and gauge cluster are clear as a bell.
-Rear hatch works perfectly, just need to be lifting. If you pop the rear hatch, it'll relatch itself, a little lift and you're good
-Driver window is a little slow. Been slow for 4 years at least. I always help it by hand a little.

BMW 3 Series Gran Turismo gets leaked well ahead of Geneva reveal
Wed, 06 Feb 2013The great power of the internet has allowed us to get an early first look at the all-new BMW 3 Series Gran Turismo, a car that is slated to be shown in full at the Geneva Motor Show next month, albeit without many details to go on right now. With pictures leaking out this early in the game, we'd expect that you won't have to wait until March to get the full lowdown, however.
Our first look at the 3er GT reveals a car that is, to our eyes, a tidier piece of design work than its 5 Series GT brother. The long-backside proportions are still a bit ungainly, at least from these images, but they're helped tremendously with the larger wheel/tire package and more aggressive fascia of the sport package.
Expect the 3 Series GT to hit the ground running, with the same turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder and 3.0-liter inline-six found in the standard 3 Series sedan. BMW's popular xDrive all-wheel-drive system is a virtual lock for the option sheet, too.
BMW-Toyota joint sports car project is on like Donkey Kong
Mon, 30 Dec 2013It's official - there will be a jointly developed sports car from BMW and Toyota. While the two auto giants signed a Memorandum of Understanding that pledged to pursue "joint development of architecture and components for a future sports vehicle" back in June of 2012, in the interim, it has remained unclear how those plans had been progressing. BMW has finally officially confirmed that the German and Japanese manufacturers will be codeveloping a pair of sports cars in addition to pursuing other disciplines including fuel cell systems and lightweight technologies.
"We have agreed on a joint architecture for a sports car. What is important is that there will be two different vehicles that are authentic to the two brands," BMW Development Chief Herbert Diess told Germany's Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, Reuters is reporting. This is a very, very big step for both brands, but now the speculation can officially begin as to what the products of this agreement will look like.
There's ample reason to believe that the BMW-Toyota tie up will result in a Supra successor based on comments made by the chief engineer of the GT86/FR-S program, Tatsuya Tada, back in August. Follow that with a rumor from earlier this month that Toyota could debut a Supra concept car at the upcoming Detroit Auto Show later this month, and we could be seeing the fruits of this partnership sooner rather than later.
