2000 Bmw E39 M5 Dinan Ac Schnitzer Alpina, Low Miles, No Reserve!!! on 2040-cars
Elizabeth, New Jersey, United States
Up for auction is one of the best driver's cars, and perhaps the best handling 4-door sedan ever made - the E39 BMW M5. Its combination of brute power, luxurious accommodations, and precise handling made it a favorite among car enthusiasts the world over. Its 400+ horsepower engine, mated to a responsive Getrag 6-speed manual make it supercar fast for economy car money.
Here's a detailed description of this particular car. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask. You can reach me at (908)247-1055. Engine/Drivetrain The 5.0L V8 engine in this car is simply amazing. It revs insanely fast, and sounds amazing. The intakes are stock, with OEM air filters in good shape. The car does not leak any oil or any other fluid. The cooling system was serviced 2 months ago with new OEM thermostat and coolant flush, as well as O2 sensors. Receipt for all services from independent shop in included. The engine burns no oil, and although has a slight traditional VANOS rattle at idle, there are no leaks in the VANOS system. The car has a Dinan Stage 1 ECU installed. This increases the rev limiter to 7300 rpm, and removes the factory 155 mpg speed limiter. The receipt for the Dinan ECU is included. The "//M" badge on the top of the engine is a bit faded, and the windshield washer cap for the reservoir is missing. The Transmission is a very responsive Getrag 6-speed manual. There are no crunches or grinds in any gear, and engagement is smooth. The driveline is completely smooth and has no vibration while driving at all. The bushings and linkages all feel very tight and in great condition. The car has a factory-installed limited-slip differential that functions beautifully and helps the car handle in quick starts and high-speed bends. Exhaust The Exhaust is stock manifolds into a Dinan catback with polished stainless steel tips, which was over $1800 new, (receipt included). The car sounds absolutely amazing and very exotic. It's whisper quiet while cruising, but very loud when you open the throttle. A great addition to the drivability of the car, and with the addition of the ECU, it produces well in excess of the stock 400 horsepower. If you'd like to know what it sounds like click below for a YouTube video of a similar setup: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ywcrYM1llko Exterior The car's Titanium Silver Metallic exterior is in generally good condition, but it does have a few issues. Previously, the car was backed into while parked and incurred damage to the driver's side front and rear doors, along with the rocker panel. The parts were replaced with OEM replacements and painted and blended with the rest of the car. A receipt from the bodyshop, along with warranty for the work is included. The moldings on the driver's side of the car are from the non-M 5-series, but color-matched to the rest of the trim. There is a small dent on the driver's side rear passenger's door, which can likely be popped out. Doors have no alignment issues. The mirrors were painted flat black to match the exterior trim. The front kidney grilles are aftermarket, and have a few fitment issues, and the hood appears to have some body filler behind the grilles, but it isn't noticeable. There are small cracks and paint chips on the front bumper on the passenger's side, and some scratches on the rear bumper. The rear spoiler is a Genuine Alpina. However, when it was installed, it appears to have some slight damage to the passenger's side bottom, where a metal screw is exposed and there's a small gap in the bodywork. The rear lower valence has been painted in a scratch-proof black bedliner material. The paint can be polished to a very deep shine and no body panels have any alignment issues. The car has no rust on the exterior of the car. Interior The interior is in amazing condition. The seats and door panels are 2-tone Sport trim, with silver Ostrich print trim. There are no rips in the seats, but the driver's seat has a little bit of wear. It can likely be massaged out with a good conditioner to be made 100 percent. It looks great as-is. The car's original trim was brushed aluminum, wrapped in 3M 1080 Brushed Titanium Vinyl. It looks awesome with the color combination and ties the car together. The shifter boot is in good condition, but has a small tear at the top, which isn't noticeable from the driver's side. The carpets are a deep black and are in great shape. The cup holders are in working shape and aren't cracked or broken. In addition, a TEC foldable aluminum cup holder ($95) is installed in the storage compartment behind the ashtray. The trunk panels are in good shape, however the foldable top panel has some fabric missing from the top right corner and you can see the wood underneath. In addition, there's a sticker on the right side of the trunk that was unable to remove. No air pump is included, and most of the BMW tools are intact. The car has a power rear sunshade and rear manual window shades, all in great shape and make the car feel much more luxurious. All original owner's manuals are included. Audio/Electronics The car's audio system is the BMW Premium Audio with DSP and Navigation. An upgraded 16:9 Widescreen Navigation display unit is installed from a 2001 BMW X5. It has zero dead pixels and works amazingly. I will include a cassette to AUX adapter. The car's audio system works flawlessly and the subwoofers and tweeters work well to make a strong sound stage. No Navigation CD is included. All electronics on the car work flawlessly. The car's gauge cluster has the common issue of bleeding LCD screen, but a new LCD strip in included for the next owner to install. The headlights on the car are upgraded OEM Self-leveling BMW HID/halo units with 4300K HID Philips bulbs. The car has been upgraded with factory daytime running lights and LED Halos. The fog light bulbs are new. One key is included, but the keyless entry functions on the key do not work. The car locks and unlocks with the driver's door lock, as well as summer open/close functions. Suspension The car has factory suspension, and everything is in great shape. The car has had a recent alignment, and the printout for the measurements and specs will be included in the sale. Climate Control/AC The dual-zone climate control works flawlessly and has no leaks or issues with either heat or air conditioning. The LCD has no bleeding and works like new. Wheels/Tires The Wheels are 19" AC Schnitzer Type IV staggered units. They were originally black and coated in Plastidip Real Aluminum. This is entirely reversible, but I felt it ties the look of the car together. The wheels have some curb rash on them, and the front right wheel has a gouge in the lip. All wheels and tires have been balanced and don't vibrate at any speed. The tires are a matched set of Continental ContiSport Contact 235/40/19 front, and 265/35/19 rear, with more than 50% tread depth. They are very sticky and hold the road quite well without losing grip on high-G turns. Brakes The rotors on this car are slotted rotors front and rear, with lots of life left on the front and rear pads. However, the emergency brake shoes are worn and render the emergency brake useless. They would need to be changed to use the emergency brake properly. The car still stays in place if it is left in gear. Drivability This car will make you fall in love with German cars. It has neck-snapping acceleration from a stop, and sounds as exotic as any Ferrari, while having room for 5 with luggage. It's the perfect daily driver or weekend mountain carver. It truly is the Ultimate Driving machine. Vehicle History The car was garaged for the last few years and driven very sparingly. The car has 84,105 miles.

BMW offering Track Handling Package for 2 Series
Thu, 17 Apr 2014After getting a chance to drive the BMW M235i earlier this year, we mentioned our regret at not being able to sample the lighter and less powerful 228i Coupe. We'd like to have seen how close the latter could get to the former, noting that "there's a lot of room for upgrades with the $11,000 retail difference." BMW is closing that performance gap slightly, announcing that a Track Handling Package will join the options sheet for the 2015 228i Coupe.
The group bolts on Variable Sport Steering, Adaptive M Suspension and M Sport Brakes behind new 18-inch lightweight wheels wearing Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires. There's no change to the 240-horsepower four-cylinder, but a coupe so equipped should be able to do plenty more with the horses it has thanks to a faster steering rack, sharper handling due to additional sensors and a ten-millimeter drop in ride height, and larger brakes and discs.
BMW has used the New York Auto Show as a venue to introduce the new Track Handling Package, and it will roll onto showroom floors in July and pricing will be announced sometime between now and then. Takers can get it with both the six-speed manual and eight-speed Sport Automatic, see it in the high-res image gallery above, and read about it in the press release below.
Recharge Wrap-up: Nissan and Endesa launch V2G project; BMW denies Apple will use i3
Fri, Mar 6 2015Nissan and Endesa will work together to deliver a mass-market vehicle-to-grid (V2G) system. The technology would allow users to charge their vehicle during off-peak hours, and sell energy back to the grid during periods of high demand. The two companies are looking to launch V2G technology in Europe, as well as exploring second-life projects using retired EV batteries for stationary energy storage. V2G allows users to lower the cost of ownership of their EV, and also helps stabilize the grid, particularly in countries that use a large amount of renewable energy. Endesa will demonstrate its V2G technology system in Madrid on March 12. Read more from Nissan. BMW denies reports that Apple will build a car based on the i3. German magazine Auto Motor und Sport said that such a deal was in the works, and that the Apple car could be sold by Apple and serviced by BMW. "We are in regular talks with companies from the IT and telecommunications sector, including Apple, concerning topics like connected vehicles," says BMW. "Developing or building a car is not a topic of these discussions." Anonymous sources say that Apple could have a car available for production in 2020. Read more at Automotive News Europe. BluepointLondon will take over the management of 60 EV charging stations from Transport for London. The 60 chargers are in the boroughs of Southwark and Sutton, and Bluepoint expects to take over management of charging infrastructure in other London boroughs as well. "A better maintained and more extensive charging infrastructure will mean more drivers are able to use electric vehicles and join the early-adopters who are already helping London reach lower emissions level," says BluepointLondon Director Christophe Arnaud. "We are very excited to be playing our part." BluepointLondon aims to manage 6,000 charging points in London by 2018. Read more in the press release below. Efficient Drivetrains, Inc. (EDI) offers plug-in hybrid conversions for GM light-duty trucks. The PHEV drivetrain offers all the performance of the original model, but reduces consumption and emissions by as much as 80 percent. It offers 30 to 40 miles of all-electric range plus enough energy to act as an idle-free power supply for tools and the like without depleting range. The EDI drivetrain can even be used to charge other EVs. Says EDI's Charlie Travis, "The light duty truck class is an important and high-volume vehicle category for fleet owners.
BMW-Toyota partnership to spawn hybrid supercar
Wed, 06 Nov 2013BMW and Toyota inked a partnership some time ago to develop green technology, and while we were excited by the idea of a reborn Supra with BMW's carbon fiber reinforced plastic slashing the curb weight or an ultra-efficient, hybridized 1 Series, the joint efforts have been rather limited. That's set to change, though, according to a report from Australia.
Motoring reports that the partners have come to terms on a sports car. And not just any sports car, but a lightweight, hybridized model, with a six-figure price tag. Lending a bit of street cred to that idea is the site's claim that Toyota is currently carrying out durability testing on the BMW i8. According to the site, the new model will slot into the spot left by the Lexus LFA, although based on the language used, it's unclear if this is the Tokyo-bound vehicle we mentioned several months ago.
Details on this potential car are limited, although Motoring claims it will use a Toyota hybrid system mated up to a BMW gas engine - likely the 4.4-liter, twin-turbo V8 found in the M5 and M6. That sounds pretty amazing to us, but we'd still advise taking this with a grain of salt. What would you like to see out of a joint-venture supercar from Toyota and BMW? Let us know in Comments, and have your say on the prospects of a hybridized, twin-turbocharged V8.
