THIS IS A NO RESERVE LISTING.

This is my excellent 1998 BMW 540i Sport 6-speed with an AC Schnitzer M5 body kit, M5 wheels and performance upgrades.  With an estimated 350 horsepower, killer looks and excellent mechanical and cosmetic condition, this car is really exceptional.  You can look at this car one of two ways: either this is the best 540i Sport 6-speed you'll ever find, or darn close to an M5 for a lot less money.

This car has 109,811 miles but it looks and drives like a car with 40,000 miles.  You'll see me use many superlatives throughout this description, because of the truly excellent condition of this superb car.

I am a huge BMW enthusiast and I've owned nearly every significant BMW produced in the past 30 years.  This particular car is hands-down, one of the finest BMWs I've ever driven.  The looks, the power, the sound, the brakes, the handling, the comfort and reliability are all just superb.  This is about as close as you can get to an M5 without spending huge money.

This car has been serviced and upgraded by a nationally-renowned BMW specialty shop in our area.  The man who worked on the car is a worldwide BMW expert and has been called on to write numerous articles for "Roundel" the BMW Car Club of America's magazine.  So you know that all the work done to the car was done right, and no corners were cut. 

This car has the following factory equipment:

  • 4.4L V8 engine
  • 6-speed manual transmission
  • factory Sport package
  • power moonroof
  • leather and heated Sport seats
  • AM/FM CD and cassette premium audio system with DSP
  • automatic climate control with A/C (blows cold)
  • anti-lock brakes
  • Dynamic Stability Program
  • front and side airbags

In addition, the car has the following upgrades:

  • AC Schnitzer M5 body kit
  • UUC short shift kit (amazingly tight, short throws)
  • lowered performance suspension
  • 18" M5 wheels with Goodyear Eagle GT tires
  • AFE Magnum Force cold air intake
  • JET performance tuning chip
  • OBX-R stainless steel dual exhaust
  • "angel eyes" HID headlights and updated signals at all four corners
  • cross-drilled brake rotors on all four wheels

I also have the original books and owner's manuals in their original case.

This car is in truly outstanding condition.  The paint and body are excellent, the paint is gorgeous and the body is straight and clean.  There is very little in the way of stone nicks, etc- this car is superbly clean.  The 18" M5 wheels have no curb rash and they're in great condition. The AC Schnitzer M5 body kit fits perfectly and the pieces have super high-quality paint to match the car.

The interior of this car is nearly unbelievable- there is literally no wear and no signs of age.  The leather seats are nearly like new with no wear, and the interior plastics, upholstery and wood are superb.  The interior of this car look like that of a 2 year old car. 

The mechanical condition of this 540i is excellent.  The engine, transmission, suspension, etc are working great. The car has no known mechanical issues and it drives exceptionally well.  The engine is smooth and hugely powerful.  The engine sounds outstanding with a great V8 rumble due to the cold-air intake and stainless free-flow exhaust system.  The handling is amazingly tight and sharp without being harsh.  Everything is "tight" on the car, the suspension, steering, brakes, transmission, etc.  There is nothing loose or sloppy about the car- it is precise, tight and solid in every way- again it feels like a car with 40,000 miles. 

This is a 1998 car and as such it is not brand new.  While this is a great car, please expect normal issues of wear and tear consistent with the age of the car.  This is a list of anything and everything I know of that is wrong with the car: the center display which shows the onboard computer/ odometer is hard to read (common for these cars), the airbag light is on, and the sunroof does not open.  That's it.  This is a superb, great-condition performance machine that you'll enjoy every minute of driving. 

The car currently has 109,811 miles but this will increase as I'm planning to take this car for a trip this weekend.  Incidentally, this car is totally reliable, dependable and fully mechanically sound.  There are absolutely no known mechanical problems, and I'd trust this car to drive to California and back. 

This BMW has a clean and clear OH title ready to transfer.

You can fly in to Cleveland (CLE) and drive this car home, or you can have the car shipped.  Please call Angels Moving Autos at 530 245 0481 for a shipping quote.

This car is kept in my garage in Willoughby, OH.

Corvette gets slidey with Britain's best performance cars

Sat, 18 Oct 2014

Autocar wants to find Britain's best driver's car, and it's challenging a murderers' row of some of the world's best performance vehicles to find out, including the latest Chevrolet Corvette Stingray. All of them were therefore assembled at the Castle Combe Circuit to find a winner.
If it wants to take the crown from this pack of mostly European competitors, the 'Vette has to beat some steep competition. Its challengers include monsters like the Ferrari 458 Speciale, Ariel Atom 3.5R and Jaguar F-Type Coupe. As a further hurdle for the winner to clear, Autocar also has last year's champ among the fighters - the Porsche 911 GT3.
Even if you're not at all interested in the C7, there's still something here for practically any fan of fast cars. The competitors include relative oddities among the pack like the Renault Mégane RS Trophy and Alfa Romeo 4C. Plus, Autocar has some well-positioned microphones that let you hear the Atom wailing like a banshee and the roar of the 458 Speciale. Check out the video to see which one of these all-stars takes home the award this year.

She's just a girl... who's an E28 fanatic

Tue, 02 Apr 2013

Ashley Rodriguez has a thing for the BMW E28. The amateur train photographer has owned over 15 of the cars in her brief lifetime, and says she's attracted to the old 5 Series because of how rare they are. All told, she's owned every variation of the E28 with the exception of the 2.4td, and the crew from Petrolicious recently stopped by to train their lenses on her most recent acquisition: a lovely M535i. The site's latest video, Rare Things, takes a closer look at just what draws Rodriguez to the E28 and how her passion for the cars has evolved over the years.
As usual, Petrolicious serves up plenty of gorgeous footage of the vintage German sedan, and anyone who's ever harbored an obsession over any one particular model can certainly hear a few chords ring true in Rodriguez's words. Check out the clip below to see what we mean.
