Ive got my 1995 BMW 540I up for sale. It was my daily driver for a while but replaced it and am finally getting around to passing this car on. This car is the E34 body type and is in awesome shape for an 18yo car. White with tan leather interior. Great paint with only a few dings. 292 horsepower M60 aluminum V8 engine with an Auto trans. Clock shows 201k. I have many service records for it going back a few years.
This car has had an Alusil engine installed in it at approx. 95k miles under the BMW Nikasil warranty. This engine runs strong with no hick-ups and will not experience the compression problems that other V8 BMWs of the time can have. There are many out there that have not had the engine changed out for the newer Alloy (alusil) but this car has had it completed.
Have done A LOT of work to this car. New front suspension arms, rear brakes (New calipers, pads, rotors, and E brake shoes), Master cylinder, Heater core, valve cover gaskets, water pump, spark plugs, coil packs, Radiator and expansion tank, hoses, window regulators, and battery among others. I had brand new Z rated tires installed a few weeks before I parked it. This car runs well. Needs 1 motor mount and a horn, thats about all that i know of but it is old enough to vote, a used car, and is sold AS IS. Used cars almost always require some work. It was always reliable when I was driving it every day and starts up every time. Please do not hesitate to ask questions about the car and for additional photos if you would like. I will do my best to represent this vehicle as what it is but make no guarantees.
In 1995 BMW did not release an M5 and the 540I was the top of the line 5 series with enough styling differences to set it apart from the normal 5 series. Looks like a beige plague sedan but under the hood is a monster. This car is a rocket and a blast to drive. Everything in the interior works and the factory sound system still sounds great. Tinted windows, power seats, dual zone heating/AC, mirrors, windows, and moon roof, all functional. The only things that do not work are the keyless entry and the BMW OEM Cellular phone which is still installed. There are a few scratches here and there on the leather in the interior but what 18yo car doesnt?
This car would be perfect to setup for Autocross or a daily driven hot rod! Or maybe just a toy. The E34s are becoming difficult to find in decent shape and this car is certainly a gem considering its age. And this one has the largest engine offered in this body!
I am certainly open to offers!

Cafe racer motorbikes storm Japan
Fri, 22 Nov 2013Japan may be best known, at least among motorcycle enthusiasts, for its sport bikes. But as we found at the Tokyo Motor Show this year, Japanese motorcycle manufacturers are capable of producing all kinds of motorbikes. And to our delight, that includes cafe racers.
Along with the myriad electric bikes, dirt bikes, crotch rockets and scooters, the halls of Tokyo's Big Site convention center this year were full of the retro-infused rides we love. Chief among them was the Bolt (shown above) which Yamaha exhibited alongside their various electric two-wheelers, sporting a delicious metallic blue paintjob, inverted handlebars and hanging mirrors, machined metal bits, blacked-out trim and saddle brown leatherwork.
Honda was also on hand with a new EX version of its '70s-style CB1100 retro roadster in sinister and low-key matte black. And this was our first chance to check out BMW Motorrad's new birthday present to its 90-year-old self, the R NineT, a model recently unveiled at the EICMA motorcycle show in Milan. But one of the most amusing retro rides we came across was the Honda Monkey Limited, a mini bike that makes the new 125cc Grom (which was displayed alongside it) look positively gigantic.
First BMW i8 in US sells for $825,000
Mon, Aug 18 2014Here are some numbers. The standard BMW i8 starts at starts at $135,700. The first i8 in the US was auctioned off at the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance this past weekend and the auctioneers, Gooding & Company, said before the gavel was lifted the fist time that they expected the i8 with unique Frozen Grey Metallic and other upgrades to raise between $150,000 and $200,000 for the Pebble Beach Company Foundation. Turns out, the car eventually sold for $825,000 to an unnamed buyer. Along with the honor of having the first i8 on these shores, the special plug-in hybrid comes with Dalbergia Brown leather upholstery, a set of Louis Vuitton luggage and something called a "professional edition" charging station along with laser headlights (subject to regulator approval). A number of other i8s were delivered to a few wealthy car shoppers who managed to make their way to Pebble Beach over the weekend, including automotive guru Roger Penske and Nest CEO Tony Fadell. The special edition was presented at the auction by Jay Leno and BMW North America president and CEO, Ludwig Willisch. You can't put a price on that. Just kidding. You can, and it's apparently $825,000.
Check out 90 years of BMW Motorrad in 90 seconds
Tue, 12 Mar 2013After ninety years in business and first-to-market motorcycle innovations like the one-piece 'tunnel' crankcase, hydraulically dampened front forks and full fairings, as well as that trademark boxer engine, BMW Motorrad is celebrating its nonagenarian status with a video: You can follow the ride on BMW motorcycles from 1923 to now in just 90 seconds.
Okay, so there's more than a video - some anniversary-themed bikes and a new retro boxer model celebrating the R 32 "airhead' from 1923 also commemorate the occasion. But you can start with the video, and that's below.
