Hello:
I am selling the world famous IForged Racing 540i Widebody show car ! It is well known in the BMW community and has been featured in over 10 International magazines. It was voted the best five series car by Performance BMW magazine in their OCT 2011 issue. It was built by Steven Lin at IForged Racing for the show circuit, won Hot Import Nites 2006 best paint award, was in various shows including the SEMA show. Have photos and articles to verify all of this. Car is absolutely like new both cosmetically and mechanically. Extended warranty until July 2014. Has over $ 115 K into it, was built by the best in the industry to feature their wares. It is best to type in "Steven Lin BMW 540 widebody" on Google, you will find very detailed articles with photos and long list of specs. Car was in professional indoor storage and I have owned it since July 2010. Have just recently invested over $ 3500 with receipts for engine reseal, spark plugs, synthetic oil, hoses, valve cover gaskets, manifold gasket etc. Mechanically this 540 is perfect, needs nothing, perfect engine compression, ready to go for years plus has extended warranty to cover the powertrain until July 2014. Cosmetically the paint and body are like new, Interior is Immaculate. I am very picky and this car is as nice as a brand new 2013 model. Here is a run down of the specs. This 1999 540i started out with with all steel widebody fabricated by M1 autobody, wider than the Hamann Widebody car, M1 also applied the BASF candy Fuscia paint ( over $20K with bodywork), VF Engineering Supercharger kit ($ 5500), 6 speed manual spec stage 3 clutch,UUC short shifter kit, clutch delay valve, FK Konigsport adjustable coilovers, Rotora 8 piston front and Rotora 4 piston rear brake kit ($ 7K), IForged Daytona and Imola wheelset, 20x9.5 front and 20x11 rear with like new Yokohama Advan sport tires, 255/30-20, 305/25-20.

I cannot stress enough the condition of this car. My certified BMW master mechanic can verify the condition and work done to it. Draws attention everywhere it goes. Has about 6K miles since complete customization for IForged was completed. Buying essentially a new car with warranty, aftermarket parts alone were over $ 75K wholesale to IForged. This is a once in a lifetime chance at the "Ultimate 5". Thanks

2013 BMW X1
Tue, 23 Apr 2013A Tasty Bit Of Old School For The New School
Against the backdrop of fervent hand-wringing from brand purists, BMW is on the cusp of finally offering front-wheel-drive vehicles. While that's a shock to the constitution, many are pointing to the company's fine-handling Mini offerings as an article of faith that it can get this drivetrain paradigm shift right. That may be true, but there's an even more important lesson that Mini has taught the decision-makers in Munich: how to make real money on small cars.
Before Mini came along, BMW - along with seemingly every other premium European automaker - never really figured out how to coax big dollars out of American wallets without developing cars that had large footprints, at least those other than sports cars. While the automaker really got rolling in America on the strength of little bantamweights like the 2002, it veered away from small cars sometime in the '80s. BMW subsequently crashed and burned with the cut-and-shut 318ti built off its E36 3 Series and, good as it is, the 1 Series hasn't given the company meaty volume or profits, either. Among other brands, the Audi A3 has never rung up big numbers, and the less said about the painful sales figures of the Volvo C30, the better. But Mini has beat the odds, blazing a more affordable and evidently compelling trail. As of late, the company's Countryman softroader has been a massive hit worldwide. No surprise then that BMW has reconsidered bringing over its smallest softroader, the X1, to the US.

BMW 2 Series Gran Tourer is a minivan by any other name
Wed, Mar 4 2015The Ultimate Driving Mini Minivan? Too early to say, considering that we've not yet driven it and so we don't know if it's the ultimate anything. But the BMW 2 Series Gran Tourer definitely slots into place as a small MPV in the European market, hence the mini minivan designation, though it doesn't have sliding doors. We don't have any indication that this 2 Series variant will come to the United States, in case you were wondering. With the option of a third row, this seven-passenger, front-wheel-drive (or optionally, all-wheel-drive) machine from BMW is sure to ruffle a few enthusiast feathers, but it also has the potential to be a big seller for the German brand. Available with a range of three- and four-cylinder engines offering between 116 and 192 horsepower, the 2 Series Gran Tourer packs a lot of space into a very small platform. It may not be the prettiest vehicle to wear the Roundel, but it may be the most practical. See it for yourself from every angle in our high-res gallery of live images above, and feel free to read more in the press release below. The new BMW 2 Series Gran Tourer. 11.02.2015 With the new BMW 2 Series Gran Tourer, BMW has carved out yet another new vehicle segment. With its generous space, versatility and groundbreaking flexibility, the BMW 2 Series Gran Tourer is the world's first premium compact model to offer up to seven seats and fully meet the mobility requirements of young families. Compact yet capacious. Despite its compact dimensions – measuring just 4,556 millimetres long, 1,800 mm wide and 1,608 mm high – the new BMW 2 Series Gran Tourer offers ample space and a generous luggage compartment that can be extended in capacity from 645 to 805 litres. With the rear-seat backrests folded down, this rises to an impressive 1,905 litres of load space. Ensuring maximum variability is the standard-fitted fore-aft sliding rear seat bench – with a 40:20:40-split backrest that folds down at the press of a button – which allows three child seats to be fitted. Extending the possibilities even further is an optional third row of seats which can be completely lowered into the loading floor. Maximising the vehicle's everyday practicality is a range of storage options for all three rows of seats, as well as rails on the front-seat backrests with fold-out tables attached.
