2007 Bmw 5-series 530xit on 2040-cars
Templeton, Indiana, United States
This is a low mileage 2-owner vehicle well suited for the family that enjoys traveling in style and comfort. Most owners of this vehicle opted for the free automatic transmission; however, this car maintained its original 6-speed manual transmission making it somewhat rare and was hard to find. The engine is rated at 255 hp and 220 ft lbs of torque. I took ownership from Bell BMW in New Jersey that had initially leased it then put it through their certified used program after it was returned to them. It has not been a daily driver until recently; therefore, the mileage has remained relatively low at 65+K. The car was in the San Francisco Bay Area from July 2010 to June 2013 and maintained by Weatherford BMW in Berkeley under both the manufacturer's and certified pre-owned warranty; records included. The car is currently garaged in Pembroke Pines. FL. Around town gas mileage averages about 22 mpg, fully loaded with a roof rack around 25 mpg, and I have achieved 28-29 mpg on multiple lightly-loaded trips on open roads. A few of my favorite interior options include the front/rear heated seats and the heated steering wheel, large sunroof, and audio sound quality. There are LATCH attachments for child safety seats in the rear. On the outside, a critical component of the car's performance is the 18' 245 series wheel and tire package that ensures the car never loses traction. The AWD system mated with the dynamic stability and brake control ensures the car stays planted in any situation. An invisible but important brake-related safety feature, Dynamic Brake Control, moves the brake pads closer to the rotors if the driver quickly removes their foot from the accelerator in preparation for an emergency stop. The 0-60 time was advertised as 6.9 seconds which seems fairly accurate. The DVD charts for North America were updated to the 2012 edition and I will pass along the BMW car cover with the vehicle. The paint has been touched-up in two areas: the driver's door and rear bumper. The wheels have some minor scratches on the outer edges. There is a small indentation in the front bumper from a chain-link fence and a scratch on the front left. The left passenger door is dinged. The car is mechanically sound with no leaks and has years of enjoyment left to give to the right owner. Contact me with questions

BMW to announce location of new plant in Mexico in July
Tue, 20 May 2014Volkswagen manufactures in Mexico. Soon Audi will as well, and Mercedes-Benz is said to be working on a deal to assemble some of its cars at a Nissan plant in Mexico too. That leaves BMW out of the mix of German automakers building cars South of the Border, but that may soon be rectified, as well.
According to Automotive News, the Bavarian automaker is preparing to announce the site of its first Mexican assembly plant as soon as July, now just two months away. BMW already builds cars for North American consumption at its plant in Spartanburg, South Carolina, but has reportedly been keen to capitalize on cheaper labor and the benefits of the North American Free Trade Agreement to supply vehicles to the United States and Canada especially.
When BMW does announce the site of the plant - reportedly narrowed down to either Hidalgo or San Luis Potosi - it is tipped to work its way up to 100,000 vehicles per year at the new location, potentially to include the 3 Series as well as smaller, front-drive models, including Minis.
Are you the BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe?
Fri, 31 Jan 2014Thanks to Austrian website Autofilou (via Jalopnik), we now have our first look at what appears to be the upcoming BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe - the four-door version of the new 4 Series coupe, which itself is based on the 3 Series sedan. Makes total sense, right?
Nevertheless, in our First Drive of the 4 Series coupe, we found it to be a much more engaging experience than the 3 Series on which its based. And if this new 4GC follows in those footsteps, it could prove to be a better 3 Series sedan than, well, the 3 Series sedan.
Expect the 4 Series Gran Coupe to come in 428i and 435i flavors, with a 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-four in the base car and a 3.0-liter turbo-six in the higher-end model. Of course, BMW will likely bring a range-topping M4 Gran Coupe to market not long thereafter.
BMW readies EV, hydrogen updates for 2015 Detroit Auto Show
Sat, Dec 13 2014BMW's stand at the 2015 Detroit Auto Show will be the place to go for updates. News about advances in electric vehicle infrastructure, hydrogen fuel cells (maybe) and BMW's suite of connected vehicles app things will all make an appearance at the show next month. Let's start with what we know for sure. Both the i3 and i8 plug-in vehicles are supremely connected cars. A new announcement from BMW (available below) says that the suite of "Now" – ChargeNow, ParkNow and DriveNow – apps will be extended and available internationally. The updates include things like being able to find new new fast-charging stations and ParkNow LongTerm, which will let drivers find a permanent parking space where they can fill up their batteries. As Jacob Harb, BMW of North America's head of electric vehicle sales and strategy, told AutoGuide, "2015 is the year of infrastructure." While there is no official mention of a fuel cell stack in the official release (and we've asked BMW to see if there's anything to this news), Inside EVs says that BMW will also show off its new fuel cell stack in Detroit. That's the one that Toyota and BMW are working on together, as announced back in January 2013. If it makes an appearance, then it'll be our first look at the powertrain that's one generation beyond what Toyota has now in the Mirai. BMW at the North American International Auto Show (NAIAS) 2015 in Detroit. On 12 January 2015, BMW will welcome in the new car year by unveiling a raft of new products at the North American International Auto Show (NAIAS) in Detroit. A fixture on the calendar since 1907, the event originally known as the Detroit Auto Show has a long tradition in the USA. This year will be the 27th time it has been held on an international stage, and more than 200 exhibitors will gather at the COBO Center on the Detroit River to present their latest offerings to a large audience. More than 18 million people have visited the show since 1989. The public days take place from 17 – 25 January. Celebrating their world premieres in Detroit are the new BMW 6 Series Convertible, Coupe and Gran Coupe, as well as the new BMW M6 Coupe, BMW M6 Convertible and BMW M6 Gran Coupe high-performance models. They will be joined at the NAIAS by the cutting-edge BMW i models and innovative services encompassing the world of electric mobility. And BMW ConnectedDrive will be showcasing its over-the-air regular automatic map updating technology.
