This BMW has been cared for its whole life, serviced only with the best fluids and oils, maintained to BMW standards. It is exceptionally clean and ready for extended service. I have personally put over 500 miles on this truck and have been impressed with its smoothness, its economy (over 20MPG) and its comfort! No one makes a better SUV! I am so confident in its performance, I would send my daughter to the opposite coast tomorrow with no worry. The white exterior is nearly flawless, certainly well above average. The new Michelins are very quiet and smooth, many miles to go! The leather interior is clean and shows minimal wear despite having over 100k miles. The carpets are clean and unstained, there are high quality coco mats in the front. The cargo space has a plastic liner, and it covers a boo-boo on the carpet, someone has spilled something that has turned part of the carpet a red color, but you have to remove the liner to see it. The light burl wood trim is very pleasing to the eye, and the comfort level makes the driver feel at ease and confident. All systems are operating as they should, no issues whatsoever. The 3.0 liter 6 cylinder engine is quiet, powerful and economical, it cruises at 80 effortlessly, and delivers surprisingly good fuel mileage! The engine starts easily, no odd sounds or smoke, knocks or tics, obviously in perfect running order. The transmission shifts smoothly and as it should, no whining or jerky shifting. All systems operate as they should, the electric mirrors, the radio, the powered seats, electric windows and sunroof, cruise control, lights, etc. The radio panel has burned out pixels, but still operates OK, some numbers hard to read. this panel can be replaced easily if desired. We have serviced and maintained this vehicle for the past 5 years, so we know it has been properly maintained. We use only Redline Oil, the highest quality synthetic oil you can buy. We stand behind this vehicle 100%. We can add a warranty if desired, but we don't think you'll need it. We specialize in used BMW's and are very familiar with their maintenance and lasting quality. Please contact us, Larry or Bob, at 843-552-2999. We are happy to meet you at the Charleston SC airport and can arrange accommodations if you wish to stay and visit the Holy City before driving your BMW home. See this and other BMW's at our website, WeAreCGOC.net. Thanks for considering this vehicle and please call with any questions. Happy bidding and good luck!

BMW i8 will be first production car to use Gorilla Glass
Wed, 07 Aug 2013What do smartphones and the BMW i8 have in common? Glass. Scratch-resistant Gorilla Glass, that is. The i8 will be the first production car to use the chemically hardened material, which is more durable, lighter and provides more sound deadening than conventional laminated automotive glass. We thought it would be a natural replacement for windshields, but, according to Autoweek, BMW said it will be used for the rear window for sound deadening purposes. The Gorilla Glass will still be laminated, with two 0.7mm thick layers of it sandwiching an acoustic sheet, reports Autoevolution.
BMW reportedly claims the i8 will weigh less than 3,285 pounds, and to offset the heavy hybrid powertrain to reach that goal the automaker has implemented lightweight materials normally not found in mass-production automobiles. With a carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP) monocoque used for both the (relatively) pedestrian i3 and the upscale i8, it's not surprising BMW was also the first to jump onto Gorilla Glass, especially given the timing of a report that a high-end automaker would introduce it within the year.
Be sure to check out our First Drive review of the i8 to see if BMW's newest sports car is living up to the hype.
Monsoon rains disrupt production for Ford, BMW in India
Wed, Dec 2 2015Even modern production techniques can be stymied by Mother Nature. This was demonstrated most recently in India, as torrential, monsoon rains caused a deluge that forced multiple automakers to suspend production. Ford, Renault, and BMW all halted work at their Indian facilities around the southern city of Chennai, also known as Madras. The annual rains disrupted public transport around the city, preventing employees from making the trek into city's factories. According to Automotive News, Chennai saw 48 inches of precipitation last month alone, which is more than Seattle, WA saw in all of 2014. While Ford and BMW closed things down for all of December 1, Renault just cancelled a pair of shifts at its Chennai factory. This is the second time in the past month that automakers in southeast India have been forced to stop production due to severe flooding, and things aren't likely to improve. According to The Weather Channel, forecasts call for thunderstorms over five of the next seven days, while the chance of rain won't fall below 80 percent until December 8. Ford, Renault, and BMW are far from the only automakers that could stand to be impacted by the rains. The city has been nicknamed "The Detroit of India" for its extreme automotive presence. Daimler, Hindustan, Hyundai, Mitsubishi, and Nissan all own factories in the region.

2015 BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe
Fri, 06 Jun 2014It's hard to say what a coupe is anymore. Is it merely a car with two doors? Does it have to have an arching roofline? Do frameless windows count for anything? Can a five-door hatchback or even an SUV be a coupe? At some point in the last few years, nearly everything we thought made a coupe a coupe has been challenged by something that calls itself a coupe, but to most people isn't. Our friends at BMW have led most of this line of questioning.
The new 2015 BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe is one of the latest Bimmers to challenge the moniker (which also challenges the idea of "Gran," for that matter), and unlike some of its other "coupe" variations - we're looking at you, X6 - this one is a pretty one. The 4 Series Gran Coupe is essentially a four-door version of the 4 Series, which is itself a two-door version of the 3 Series. Huh? Wouldn't that simply make it another 3 Series? Of course, but this one is prettier, as it uses the 4's sexier body styling, with its lower nose, wider-looking stance and edgier lighting graphics. It is also technically a five-door hatchback, not a sedan per se, and it utilizes frameless side door glass, which apparently does count for something in BMW coupe-land. Significantly, the 4 Gran Coupe's wheelbase is identical to the two-door; if it was longer - as is the case with the 3 Series and 5 Series hatchbacks - that might make it a "Gran Turismo." Confused yet?
We recently got our first chance to drive the 4 Series Gran Coupe at a press launch in Spain, and while the only version we were given was a rear-drive 428i Gran Coupe with the M Sport contents, the harrowing roads around Bilbao gave us a good idea of what this car is all about from a driving dynamics standpoint. Here's some of what we found:
