This vehicle is being sold AS IS. I am moving into the city and I do not need a vehicle. I hope this SAV brings the next owner as much joy as it has to me! I believe I am the 3rd (4th if you count the dealer for a day they had it) owner of this vehicle. The owner before me bought this vehicle at 50,000 miles and I bought it from him at roughly 147xxx miles. Since purchasing this vehicle 6 months ago I have put over 6,000 miles on it and haven't had any issues! Other than normal maintenance requirements such as oil changes, brakes and rotor replacement, all wheel alignment, and a tune up , I haven't had any serious costly problems. Some minor things I did replace that haven't been an issue since, are upper/lower radiator hoses + water pump, right wheel bearing, and a brake light bulb replacement. I have all records that show what has been done since I owned it, as well as some documentation from the previous owner. Its a non smoking vehicle and always has been. New certified BMW floor mats were replaced when I bought this vehicle and the carpet underneath is virtually brand new. The engine runs very strong and shows no signs of slowing down. At 153k miles its just breaking in!  BMW owners take care and maintain there vehicles and its no secret these engines last a lifetime. 

This vehicle is ready to drive today! I live in MA and we have one of the most strict vehicle inspections in the country and this passed with flying colors. No check engine lights, all features work beautifully, exterior and interior are in above average condition. Many people look at it and think its a 2006 model because it looks that good!  Other than wear and tear its a beautiful vehicle that has been taken care of throughout the years.

Upgrades: Vehicle has a tow package. I have not towed anything and the owner before me said he towed his small tug boat (2200 lbs) once a summer to his lake house. This SAV towing capacity is rated for 5000 lbs. With minimal towing and weight far beneath its limit, its safe to say the engine was never under stress.

Vehicle comes equipped with an aftermarket navigation system, premium sound with a subwoofer that is tuned to all genres of music from country to classical and everything in between. Blutooth, and iphone compatable with easy synchronization to any and all phones.


ISSUES: Only known issue is the driver side front CV boot has ripped and needs to be replaced. (roughly $150)  or wait until the axle goes which I was priced out to be roughly ($300) but that wont need to be replaced for some time.(4-6 months) 

Serious Bidders Only 

Please feel free to ask me any questions as I will do my best to answer as honest as I can.

BMW i8 headed to Frankfurt

Mon, 05 Aug 2013

According to Edmunds, BMW will reveal its production i8 hybrid sports car at the Frankfurt Motor Show next month. The i8 is the second vehicle to come from the automaker's new "i" initiative, following the debut of the smaller i3 hatchback last month.
The BMW i8 makes its debut nearly four years after the original Vision EfficientDynamics concept bowed at the Frankfurt expo in 2009. The production car is expected to use a 1.5-liter three-cylinder engine that drives the rear wheels, coupled to an electric motor that drives the front wheels. Combined output is said to be something like 393 horsepower and 406 pound-feet of torque, based on our earlier reports. The i8 is also expected to be very light, with curb weight coming in somewhere around 3,125 pounds. Finally, the i8 is said to have a pure electric range of 20 miles, and should be able to hit 62 miles per hour in just under five seconds.
Other publications had the chance to ride along in the i8 (in prototype form) and came away impressed. We're hoping we'll feel the same when the car officially goes on sale sometime in early 2014. Stay tuned for more at the i8's official unveiling in just a few weeks.

Rinspeed issues its Budii call for Geneva [w/video]

Tue, Feb 17 2015

Of all the concepts prepared every year for the Geneva Motor Show, those made by Rinspeed are typically the most outlandish and forward-thinking. And this is the latest from Frank Rinderknecht and company. Though Rinspeed's been known to build entirely original vehicles from the ground up, it tends to base its creations on production models: Following the Tesla-based XchangE from last year, the Smart-based Dock+Go of 2012, the Fiat-based E2 from 2009 and the Lotus-based sQuba in 2007, the new Budii concept is based on the BMW i3. That means, of course, that it's powered by electricity, but the technology demonstrator is focused more on autonomous driving tech. The Budii incorporates a periscopic camera and laser scanner to map the terrain and the road ahead from above, and a drive-by-wire steering system that allows the steering wheel on an articulated column to be passed between driver and passenger or tucked out of the way to let the electronics take over. Once unburdened of the task of driving, the occupants can enjoy the proliferation of touchscreens, the "wellness shower" (whatever that is) installed in the headliner, the automatic watch-winder on the steering column and the interior accoutrements furnished by Mansory. The whole thing rides on a lowered suspension with 19-inch Borbet alloys, with a rainbow Knight Rider-style grille in the nose. But to appreciate the full scope of the consortium of suppliers that collaborated with Rinspeed to bring the Budii to life, you'll want to delve into the press release after the video below and scope out the dozens of high-resolution images in the slideshow above. 2015 Geneva Motor Show: Rinspeed "Budii" redefines human-machine interaction Reach out to robots The vision of autonomous driving will soon become reality and will fundamentally change the interaction of man and automobiles. While the research centers of the automotive industry are still feverishly working on the technical solutions, progressive thinkers such as the Swiss idea factory Rinspeed are already giving concrete thought to how automated private transport will transform the car and the man-machine system. Besides fundamental conceptual changes, this will also have to involve issues of ethics and society. In the past, the robots in the factories of this world merely assembled cars for people.

Recharge Wrap-up: E15 could help smog woes, MPG average at all-time high

Fri, Sep 5 2014

A new study shows that using an E15 blend instead of regular gasoline would reduce smog in Chicago. Increasing the availability of the 15-percent ethanol blend could help reduce carcinogenic air pollution and improve air quality, particularly on the city's South Side. The study found that E15 reduces the risk of cancer by 6.6 percent. It also reduces greenhouse gas emissions 1.5 percent compared to a 10-percent ethanol blend. Read more at Domestic Fuel.

The school's Transportation Research Institute (UMTRI) used the window sticker ratings of the vehicles to reach that number for the month of August. That's 0.2 mpg higher than July, and 5.7 mpg higher than October 2007, when UMTRI began recording the data. The group also found that average emissions per driver are down by 22 percent since October 2007. Read more at Green Car Congress.
