I'm selling this car only because a new job takes me to Wisconsin where I will need an all-wheel drive vehicle. I have owned this car since 2008 and 26,000 miles and had intended to drive it until the wheels fall off. I searched high and low, ultimately flying to Philadelphia to get this vehicle. Specific reasons I purchased it:
- It's the last 5 Series BMW with a spare tire in the trunk. What this means is no need for loud and expensive run flat tires. - It's a 545i complete with a 325HP engine with boatloads of torque but also gets 27+ MPG on the highway and rear wheel drive (The ultimate driving machine) - It's a manual transmission with the sports package, so the 'fun to drive' factor is maximized. -Space Grey Exterior with Grey Leather interior. I can fit four grown men and four sets of golf clubs or my wife along with the three kids and baggage for a long weekend. It's an incredibly versatile car. Full options: -Leather Seating -18" Alloy Wheels -Headlamp washers -Moonroof -Logic 7 Premium Sound with subwoofers -Full power (seats, locks, mirrors, windows) -Satellite Radio -Dynamic Stability Control traction control -BMW rubber floor mats (like new original carpet mats included also) -Navigation (with updated 2012 Map) -Keyless entry -Heated seats -Park distance control -Owners manual and two keys included Custom Options: - Custom installed discreet Escort radar detector mount with the mute button hidden in the ashtray. -Aux input connector in the ashtray -1 1/4" trailer hitch (used for bike trailer only) 105k mostly highway miles from commuting to work. I drive the car daily so mileage will increase. I also have an OEM BMW roof mounted rack with two bike trays that I will include ($450 value) The car has never been smoked in and is in excellent condition. Brakes first replaced at 70k and have at least 25k remaining life. Battery was replaced in 2010 and tensioner pulley was replaced this summer. High performance Yokohama all season tires replaced recently and have 70% tread remaining. I have followed the 'old school' maintenance plan with oil changes at 2x the interval as recommended by BMW. Non smoker. Exterior is in excellent condition with only minor road markings that are well below what would be expected. Come see for yourself....everyone is shocked when they realize the car is 9 years old. Clean title in hand. I am pricing this at $10,500, which is $1,000 below the Kelley Blue Book market value but also am throwing in the roof rack and radar detector so effectively this is nearly $1,750 below market value. |

BMW i3 takes to the track, circles it in a way you don't expect
Sun, Jan 5 2014So, who wants to see a BMW i3 race around a track. That's what we thought. It's not a long video, but it is entertaining, and the way the urban EV does a 'loop' at second 25 certainly caught out eye. The i3 is scheduled to go on sale in the US later this year and will start at $41,350. The diminutive electric vehicle has a top speed of 93 miles per hour and can hit 62 mph in 7.2 seconds. We found it a hoot to drive, but we're not sure if hardcore BMW performance fans will totally 'get' this car's performance. The i3 is great at what it does, but it wasn't born to hit the race track. After seeing this video, though, we want a crack at it, skinny wheels and all. You can get a behind-the-scenes glimpse here, where Chris Neff writes, "The i3 basically turns in on itself. This is one sharp turning radius, take a look at 24 seconds into the video. We were actually trying to get the i3 to do doughnuts, but the computer would not let the rear brake loose, still, you can see how it held and how sharp we were turning....about 27 times in a row." Watch all 49 seconds below. And wonder with us if whatever aerial device was used to get the shot that ends at four seconds in was destroyed just after the video cuts away.
Mercedes and VW battling Uber and Apple to spend billions on Nokia mapping division
Tue, May 12 2015Whether for autonomous driving or simply better navigation, digital mapping is closely linked with the future of motoring. The sale of a major player in that industry is spurring a showdown between automotive behemoths and tech giants, and it's a fascinating battle to watch unfold. Nokia is selling its Here mapping division, and while the company might not have the name recognition of Google, it controls about 70 percent of the auto market. The business is valued at $785 million, according to Reuters, but is likely to sell for significantly more. Case in point: Uber reportedly submitted a $3 billion bid. Apple has also been rumored to be among those interested in purchasing Here. A trio of German automotive heavyweights is mounting a challenge to Silicon Valley, though. According to Reuters speaking to two unnamed insiders, Daimler, BMW, and Audi are teaming up to submit a joint bid for an undisclosed sum. They're worried that if Here falls under the control of tech companies, then automakers might have limited availability to these vital maps in the future. Nokia bought Here for $8.1 billion in 2007, according to Reuters. The company operates a fleet of vehicles with cameras and LIDAR that drive around the world to create high-definition maps. It also generates even more information by using the GPS data from shipping and trucking companies.
2015 BMW Alpina B6 xDrive Gran Coupe priced from $118,225* [w/poll]
Wed, 05 Mar 2014If you're in the market for a high-performance BMW and you live in Europe, you've typically had two range of options at your disposal: you could go for one of BMW's own M models, or turn to Alpina. Though technically independent of BMW, Alpina is about as close to the manufacturer as a tuner can get, and many of its models are offered through BMW's own dealer network.
That's overseas, but in the North American market, BMW has typically taken a different approach, offering just one Alpina model - the B7 - to fill in for a lack of M7 performance sedan. That all changes, however, with the debut of the BMW Alpina B6 xDrive Gran Coupe.
Slotting in alongside the M6 Gran Coupe, the Alpina B6 xDrive Gran Coupe is marginally more expensive and slightly less powerful, but makes up for those relative (and negligible) shortcomings in spades. Both are based on the 6 Series Gran Coupe and both pack a 4.4-liter twin-turbo V8, but with key differences. Where the M6 produces 560 horsepower, the Alpina offers 'only' 540. But where the M6 channels 500 pound-feet of torque to the rear wheels through a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission, the Alpina drives 540 lb-ft to all four wheels through an eight-speed automatic.
