2005 BMW 545i loaded with every option available. 


I bought this car 4 years ago after a diligent search.  My requirements were:  6 speed manual, CPO, history with NO Idrive faults, no wrecks, immaculate condition, all options and Titanium Grey with grey leather.  I would love to keep it and drive it forever but sadly I am having knee problems and it is uncomfortable to drive this beast in town.  

Besides routine maintenance, a water pump and an idler pulley replacement this has been a very low maintenance vehicle for almost 70,000 miles I have owned it.  Most of my miles are highway.
Nice simple description why this car is awesome:
  • After market CORSA Exhaust.  Does not drone at all on the highway and sounds unbelievable when you get on it.  At normal driving is not to loud....but just enough to know that there is something different.  
  • Brand new Continental tires.  Less than 500 miles.  $900!!!
  • Factory short throw shit linkage and new ZHP shit weighted shift knob.  Shifts like a brand new car!
  • Paint and interior look unbelievable for the age of the car.  Please look at all of the pictures
  • Non-smoker, no eating and drinking rule in the car and no pets ever rode in it.
  • Sports package, navigation, logic 7 sound.  Loaded!
  • There is no way you car for the money than this one.
  • I am a perfectionist.  The first person that sees this car will buy it.
  • Crazy acceleration and handling with a wonderful ride.
  • Amazing enough it gets great gas mileage.  My record is 29 MPG on the highway!!!
  • $57,000 original MSRP!!!
  • Check out the review from car and driver if you just discovered this awesome car.  
So much good but just a little bad:
  • It has been in a very minor accident that may or may not show up on car fax.  The day after I bought the car I had another car brush against the driver side of the car lightly.  There was no frame damage and I actually drove the car back 500+ miles to get home.  The total repair was $1,700.  I have a copy of the repair estimate if you would like to review it.  I took it to the local Mercedes dealership that has the best body shop in town.  The paint matches perfectly, there is no overspray or tape lines.  You would have to be a used car dealership manager or body shop manager to see that it has ever been in an accident.   
  • The power steering has a very slow seep.  Every once in a while you will get an active steering fault in the winter or when it is really cold out.  It rarely does it when it is warm.  If the fault will clear when you eventually stop and restart the car.  You should be able to have this fixed at 100% for $500-$700.   (Think about free brand new tires that you did not pay for!)  :)
This is an awesome car and is up on its service and in fantastic condition.  Please call me if you have any questions.  865  three eight 4 7 four 2 5

Happy Bidding!!!

2014 BMW X5

Wed, 18 Sep 2013

Is Better Than Ever Still Good Enough?
By now, all but the staunchest of traditionalists have moved past the shock and horror of seeing their favorite automotive brands branching into categories and segments that break with their previously accepted norms. In other words, you and I don't really care all that much if the BMW M3 is powered by an inline six or a V8, or whether it boasts a turbocharger, just so long as the end result is an awesome car. Similarly, we don't get all hot under the collar seeing that same M3 share space on the showroom floor with a brace of SUVs and crossovers... or, as BMW continues to insist, Sports Activity Vehicles.
Time, as they say, heals all wounds, and the BMW X5 has been around long enough, having first seen the light of day in 1999, that anyone offended by its existence has since gotten over it. Plus, the X5 is a legitimately nice vehicle to drive, offering such desirable qualities to family men and women as seating for up to seven, all-wheel drive and a commandingly tall view of the road. For the enthusiast set, the X5 serves up a taut chassis and powerful engine options.

BMW's fuel cell coming after 2020

Fri, Oct 30 2015

Honda made news earlier this week at the Tokyo Motor Show by announcing details of the what will be its first production hydrogen fuel cell vehicle earmarked for the US next year. As for BMW? Not so fast. The German automaker might start working on a fuel cell vehicle for one of its larger sedan lines, but don't expect it to see the light of day before 2020, Reuters reports, citing remarks made by BMW executive Merten Jung in Tokyo. Bimmer has been collaborating with Toyota on advancing fuel-cell technology since 2013, but any production vehicle from BMW would take place after that collaboration expires. In fact, one point Jung made was that the BMW fuel cell would be able to go further on a full tank (of hydrogen) than the Toyota Mirai's 300+ miles. Earlier this year, reports surfaced that BMW may have a fuel-cell vehicle ready before the end of the decade, and that it would likely be sold under Bimmer's i brand of advanced-powertrain vehicles. Additionally, this summer, videos started coming out showing a hydrogen fuel cell i8 prototype (a rather sporty one, actually) as well as a 5-series prototype, so getting a handle on BMW's plans for fuel cell vehicles is a bit of a moving target. As for Honda, the Clarity will be earmarked for fleet and business customers in Japan first before marketing starts for everyday drivers. We've got some brief first-hand impressions of what it's like to drive a Clarity prototype here.

Florida bikers threatened at gunpoint for beating motorist

Wed, Apr 13 2016

A road rage incident in Pinellas County, FL spiraled out of control when a motorist confronted a trio of aggressive bikers at a stop light. According to The Sun, YouTube user known only as DankWheelie posted video on April 8 of a fistfight between a driver and a pack of sportbike riders on a busy Florida highway which ended abruptly when one of the participants pulled a pistol. There is precious little context for the video, which became a near instant viral sensation this week. Little is known about either the motorist or the bikers. The video starts with the bikers riding along an oceanside highway, when a red, older model BMW 5 Series gets into some confused lane changing shenanigans with them on a bridge. At a stop light after the bridge, the bikers and the driver of the BMW get into a fist fight in traffic, which does none of them credit. The bikers knock the driver to the ground and surround him, when a woman passenger in the BMW pops out with a pistol drawn and brandishes the weapon at the bikers. At this point the bikers all attempt to flee and the video ends. While there seems to be no police report filed, a local police official familiar with the incident made a statement to The Sun. "After the first incident, that's when you get on the phone," said Sergeant Mike Lynch, suggesting that all parties involved could have made better decisions. "That's when you call 9-1-1." "We're looking at a woman who looks terrified for either a friend that was in the vehicle or a spouse of some sort maybe," Lynch continued. "We encourage the public to call about that type of reckless driving. It endangers all of us on the road, not just their own lives but everybody else that's out there."
