2012 Bmw 135i Convertible With /m Sport Package - Black/black on 2040-cars
Fairfax Station, Virginia, United States
Yes, this pristine BMW is a manufacture's buy back car - let's get that mentioned first. I purchased this car 1 year ago knowing that the original Georgia owner had (2) High Pressure Fuel Pump replacements and one instrument panel replacement on the car in under 3,800 miles. BMW had a serious problem with high pressure fuel pumps for a few years and it was not uncommon for them to replace them more than once on a vehicle under warranty. They were finally re-designed and that is no longer an issue. As a BMW Car Club Member, that sort of thing didn't bother me as parts modules can be replaced and this vehicle has a full BMW warranty through September 2015. Since I have owned it, I have put apps 10,000 trouble free miles on it. It has been to BMW Service exactly once for oil and filter change, micro filter change and new windshield wipers all under BMW's maintenance program and done at no charge. That continues for another 18 months as well. I replaced both of the rear tires on the car at 9,500 miles with the correct BMW-Approved Bridgestone Run Flats, as one picked up a nail and I don't believe in patching tires and always do both on an axle at the same time. The car is in excellent condition, freshly waxed with Zymol Carbon and Sealant on the paint. The only flaws on the car are slight curb rash on two wheels. Leather is treated regularly with cleaner and conditioner, and the car is hand-washed weekly, as well as always being garaged. 60-year-old adult owner, this car has not been flogged or modified in any way and is 100 % stock. Has all options in 2012 except for the Technology Package.
OPTIONS INCLUDE: * Leather interior * Heated Seats * /M Sport Package * Dynamic Xenon Headlights * Moon Glow Convertible Top * XM and HD Radio * DCT (Dual Clutch) Transmission * Auto-Dim mirrors and ambient lighting * Homelink Garage Door This car is a joy to drive, powerful and responsive. The Dual Clutch Transmission (not available in the 128i) gives lightening quick shifts without the drag of a torque convertor. This car needs nothing and is ready for spring top-down weather. Remember the BMW factory warranty is still in effect and that includes all scheduled service + loaner car if needed for another 18 months. I have clear title in hand. |

Next BMW X1 moving to smaller, lighter FWD-biased platform
Thu, 20 Feb 2014BMW's decision to make the upcoming 2-Series Active Tourer front-wheel drive has been polarizing to say the least, but like it or not, that is the direction the company will go in the near future - one rumor put the number as high as 23 front-wheel-drive models for Mini and BMW combined. The next-generation X1 won't send all its power to the front wheels, though, when it launches in early 2016. While it will use the same platform as the Active Tourer, rumors suggest all models will use all-wheel drive - at least at launch.
A "high-ranking," unnamed BMW manager confirmed to AutoWeek that the new model will switch to transversely-mounted three- and four-cylinder engines and the same six-speed manual and eight-speed automatic transmissions as the Active Tourer. The new, smaller platform will allow for more efficient packaging, and despite the smaller size, interior space will remain comparable. All the changes should make it significantly lighter too.
Don't start wailing just yet because BMW surely won't be entirely abandoning sporty models. AutoWeek claims that the Bavarians are working on a higher-output version of the 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder with power closer to 300 horsepower, about a 72-hp boost. It's also rumored to offer a sporty version of the X1 that may be called the X2.
BMW reveals full details on M235i Racing
Tue, 17 Dec 2013We were suitably excited when BMW first announced the imminent arrival of the M235i Racing. After all, what's not to like about a factory-prepared racecar with 333 horsepower you can pick up for just eighty grand? Now BMW has released the full details on the latest addition to its racing portfolio, where it joins the M3 DTM, M3 GT4, Z4 GTE/GT3 and 320 TC in a growing family of competition machinery prepared by BMW Motorsport.
Based on the new 2 Series coupe, the M235i Racing is the first M Performance model for the track, and boasts the line's most powerful engine: the 3.0-liter twin-turbo straight six has been optimized to 333 horsepower and 332 pound-feet of torque. A mechanical limited-slip differential helps transfer the power to the track surface, along with race-tuned ABS, DSC and traction control.
Four-pot calipers up front and two-pot calipers in the rear shave off speed for the corner and are packed inside the 18-inch alloys, with KW dampers and H&R suspension components. Inside there's a six-point racing harness and Recaro bucket surrounded by an FIA-certified roll cage, and customers can even have an extra seat installed to take passengers for ride-alongs. All of which can be yours for €59,500.00 - equivalent to $82k at today's rates, before taxes.
BMW reclaims US luxury sales crown from Mercedes
Tue, Jan 6 2015The numbers, they are in: BMW has reclaimed the luxury-sales crown from Mercedes by a margin of 9,347 cars. Mercedes donned the king's headgear in 2013 after a strong final quarter of 2013 when the new CLA and S-Class poured out of dealerships. This year, led by the 3 Series/4 Series and X5, BMW sold 339,738 units – a 9.8-percent increase year-on-year. Mercedes, led by the C-Class and M-Class, saw its sales go up by 5.7 percent to 330,391 units. We'll have to wait a bit to see if there's another registrations-vs-sales challenge as in 2012, when BMW was anointed US luxury ruler. Behind them, a dark horse named Lexus nudged closer to the leading Teutons, selling 311,389 cars. The Japanese luxury automaker also had the biggest gain among the top three, its sales rising by 13.7 percent compared to 2013. Audi had the biggest sales of anyone among the top five, though, with a 15.2-percent gain to 182,011, which moved it a spot ahead of Cadillac; the Wreath-and-Crest brand dropped 6.5 percent to 170,750. Acura (167,843), Infiniti (117,300), and Lincoln (94,474) took the final positions. Speaking of Lincoln, sales at the once-mighty luxury marque stand as the mightiest jump of any on this list, up 15.6 percent. That's the power of Matthew McConaughey... and better cars and a new crossover, sure. So now that we're back to Round One of 2015, in case no one else has said it yet: "Ok, fight!"
