The condition of the exterior, interior and engine can vary depending on the vehicle's history. See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"Engine is like new, transmission is solid, clutch has been babied, and the suspension is in top shape. Every single feature on the car works except the power trunk release (you need to use the key). The key fob also stopped unlocking the car from a distance about two weeks ago.As far as the exterior, there are some minor scratches on the front bumper, and one on the passengers side skirt. The plastic covering the drivers side fog light is cracked (cosmetic damage only). Other than that everything is perfect, including the rims which are pristine.Interior: Leather seats show NO signs of wear, carpets are fresh too. There are a few pixels that are out on the dashboard, but I would say 95-98% are going strong. The passenger's side reading light is burnt out, and the cupholders are finicky. Other than that, EVERYTHING WORKSPowertrain: Flawless. The car pulls like it just left the factory. Clutch has been babied, and the transmission shifts smoothly."

I have a 2002 BMW 540i with 6-speed manual and sport package for sale. 100% clean carfax, title in hand. I'm asking $7,500 for the car. How did I arrive at the price? Kelley Blue Book says about $7300 given condition and mileage (157k). The Carfax report says it's worth about $600 over blue book, totaling $7,900. The car does need new tires, so I subtracted $500 off the asking price.

I tried to be as detailed as possible with this listing, but if there's anything I missed or additional pictures you would like to see, feel free to message me (I will respond very promptly). 

Background: 
I am selling this car because I am moving back to Boston. I purchased this car three months ago because I needed a car to get to work at my job over the summer. I wanted a BMW 5-series because they drive like nothing else on the road, and I needed a car that could fit the other two co-workers I was going to carpool with. After spending two weeks looking, I finally found this 540i with the M sport package that a middle aged man was selling so he could buy a new 5 series. I have honestly never seen a better maintained car with 155k miles on the odometer. A few scratches on the front bumper and the power trunk release not working are the only signs that this car has been driven. 


I am moving August 27th so the car has to sell by then. If possible, I would prefer to keep the car until the 23rd (my last day of work), but if you need to pick it up sooner I can be flexible. I understand it is common practice to lowball sellers who are moving, but I really won't start sweating unless I somehow haven't sold this car a few days before I leave :)

If you would like to check out the car in person, it is located near Alviso during business hours, and South San Jose on weekends and evenings.

BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe caught again

Tue, 02 Apr 2013

It's been a while since we've seen the upcoming BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe out testing, but we're sort of inclined to ask "Why?" yet again. After all, the 4 Series is what the new 3 Series-based coupes and convertibles will be called, so the idea of another four-door version just sort of seems redundant. In other words, just how different will a 4 Series Gran Coupe be from a 3 Series sedan, aside from perhaps a more rakish roofline or a four-passenger seating configuration? Probably not much, but BMW clearly thinks it can use the additional bodystyle to rake in some extra profits.
Anyway, back to these spy shots. No more of the 4GC's skin has been revealed since the last time we saw it, but we fully expect it to share a lot of its design DNA with the 3 Series sedan, not to mention the attractive 4 Series coupe concept that bowed at this year's Detroit Auto Show.
Powertrain options should carry over direct from the 3 Series line, so we expect to see 428i and 435i models on hand, packing turbocharged four- and six-cylinder engines, respectively. We're sure that BMW's xDrive all-wheel drive will be available, and who knows, we could even get a 428d version with the new 2.0-liter turbodiesel four that debuted in the 328d at the New York Auto Show last week, or even an M4 variant.

Two new RWD Toyota sports cars to join FR-S?

Fri, 09 Aug 2013

Toyota as we know it could become a thing of the past. According to Australian site Car Advice, the Japanese brand known for bland cruisers like the Camry and Corolla is preparing to bring two new rear-drive cars to market that would slot above and below the Scion-badged FR-S. This is very, very good news.
Car Advice spoke to the GT86/FR-S' chief engineer, Tatsuya Tada, who claimed, "Akio Toyoda always says to me, Toyota sports car [family] should be three sports car brothers. 86 is in the middle." The oldest "brother" would be the spiritual successor to the Supra, even if it doesn't wear that name. Tada is in charge of that project, while a sub-GT86 project is being headed-up elsewhere.
Tada refused to comment on names (CA specifically mentions MR2 and Celica) for the new small car, but did say that, "Yes it is rear-wheel drive and that's Toyota's strong position - Toyota sports car must be rear-wheel drive." Perhaps the juiciest bit of information obtained from Tada's interview with Car Advice was his hinting that both new sports cars would be joint ventures, like the GT86/FR-S/Subaru BRZ triplets. Tada wouldn't say who Toyota was in bed with on the smaller model, but did mention that the Supra would be a product of the world's largest automaker's partnership with BMW.
