PLEASE READ FULL DESCRIPTION BEFORE BIDDING AND CALL ME OR YOUR BID WILL BE CANCELED 

This is my personal 2005 BMW 5 Series BMW V6 Auto with all the options
THIS IS NOT A PERFECT CAR BUT THE WORK IT NEEDS IS MINIMAL 

I am no certified mechanic but i do know a bit about these and will describe best i can what issues the car has.
READ FULL DESCRIPTION BECAUSE NO REFUNDS WILL BE GIVEN AND THE CAR IS SOLD AS-IS

It has a moderate valve cover Leak and the gasket will need to be replaced.

when going from complete stop to take off fast the car jerks and you have to let off the gas. If you start off slow and steady it drives and shifts smooth. Dealer said it needs transmission reset and fluid is low.

Lastly look up service bulletin SI B11 09 07
This bulletin describes the exact issue the car has. sometime not all the time you will hear a light ticking/rattling/tapping coming from the engine. It is said to be the Hydraulic Valve Adjuster noise and is a common issue in these V6 N51, N52, and N52k engines. you can only hear it at idle and when sitting on the passenger side in the car. 

Other then these few issues the car runs excellent and i just drove it to florida and back to VA which is about a 13 hour trip there and 13 hours back. 
on the highway its steady and tight. nice smooth ride.

Interior is in great shape has no rips in the seats or anything.
one cup holder cover is loose and thats it.

Exterior has a large paint chip on the back bumper.
Missing front Emblem (some idiot stole it)
Front bumper underneath the car has some curb rash from pulling in to far at parking lots.
passenger side door has a very small light scratch you cant even see really.

This is a nice car for a nicer price but i just never drive it anymore and have 3 other cars and would like to save on the insurance

Call or text me with any questions or concerns 5713935813

2016 BMW X5 M is big and bold, not beautiful

Wed, 19 Nov 2014

Awesome as it is, the BMW X5 M has never really been an attractive machine. Big and bulgy are the themes here, and that's only more pronounced with the X5's most recent refresh. But no matter, the X5 M has never been about looks - for this machine, it's all about performance, and BMW's hi-po crossover absolutely delivers in this regard.
Under the hood is the familiar 4.4-liter, twin-turbo V8, though power has been boosted to 567 horsepower and 553 pound-feet of torque - healthy increases of 12 and 53, respectively, compared to the outgoing model. Hitting 60 miles per hour is said to take just four seconds, which is damn impressive considering this thing weighs well over 5,000 pounds.
But the X5 M has always been shockingly good to drive, with limits you'll never reach except in the most hardcore track scenarios (which we'd really like to see, by the way). It's not the prettiest thing ever, but that's okay. It's not exactly cheap, though, with prices starting at $99,650. Woof.

BMW planning Zhi Nuo Chinese sub-brand, may export models

Sat, 06 Apr 2013

Automakers continue to pour big money into the developing market that is China, and new sub-brands born of joint ventures with domestic partners crop up on what seems like a weekly basis. The latest? According to reports, BMW and its Chinese ally Brilliance are forming a new sub-brand called Zhi Nuo ("The Promise") that will likely rely on existing or older BMW products as a basis for new models.
Previous reports had indicated that the sub-brand could build its offerings based on an older 3 Series model (presumably the E90 series), but newer rumors have the X1 crossover (shown) factoring in. The Zhi Nuo brand could receive its official unveiling as soon as later this month at the Shanghai Motor Show.
Perhaps most interestingly, Automotive News Europe reports that the automaker's ambitions for Zhi Nuo may extend beyond China's borders. It's not clear what markets BMW may be eying, but executives admit the company hasn't ruled out Europe.

Which car companies are creating new jobs in America?

Fri, Sep 22 2017

Since January, automakers have announced investments totaling $9.5 billion in U.S. plants, creating or retaining more than 12,000 jobs. Some of those companies have yet to announce just how many jobs will be created given their investments, with the location of many of those jobs still to be determined. Specifically, the 4,000-job Toyota-Mazda joint venture plant still hasn't announced its location, with numerous states jockeying for it. Hyundai has plans to invest $1 billion but has not announced a jobs number yet. And likewise Ford is investing $1.2 billion in Michigan without specifying a number of jobs. Volvo this week announced plans to add a second line to its factory under construction in South Carolina, spending another $500 million and adding 2,500 jobs to the 2,000 it was already trying to fill. Then Thursday, Daimler announced a $1 billion expansion to its facility in Tuscaloosa, Ala., to produce EV batteries and electric SUVs, a move that will add 600 jobs to its hiring this year. Above, we've created a handy pie chart showing you which companies have announced new jobs and how many there will be.
