I have have performed some small touch-up paint fixes but these are not noticeable unless looking very closely. I have owned the M5 for slightly less than a year. I love the car but have recently purchased another sports car, so unfortunately, the M5 has to go. ** Carfax shows an accident around 26K miles if I remember correctly? I bought the car with about 60K and have experienced no evidence of the accident. My BMW mechanic sees nothing to cause him any concern also. The engine sounds fantastic and pulls very strong. It is a true beast. I have the paperwork on all of the repairs / upgrades I've performed on the car. All work was done by a local BMW specialist. What I have done is the following: o engine work required in order for the car to pass CT emissions, work performed, car passed with no problem o 2 Mass Air Flow Sensors just replaced o New Water Pump installed o New Fuel Filter o Air & Cabin Filters replaced o Castrol Edge Synthetic oil change o New right rear tail lamp installed o New inner hood liner (insulation) o The car came with a center armrest/car phone holder. It offered no storage. I installed a small storage compartment (meant for the M5) All parts are BMW OEM, no generic, no-name parts used. I personally machine polished & waxed the car in Sep'13. 3 new OEM M5 refurbished wheels. Unmarked, like new., no curb rash or dings. One note on the wheels - they should all be "shadow line" which is kind of a gun-metal. I originally replaced 3 wheels in Jul'13 and I then replaced the 4th wheel this past October with a brand new non-refurb wheel. I didn't realize until after the 4th wheel was installed that it was the regular (lighter) colored silver. I will replace the left rear wheel with either a brand new refurb. or a new non-refurb as part of the sale. You are welcome to the wheel that is currently on the car also. If you do a search on refurbed BMW wheels, you'll find a few suppliers. The quality is outstanding and there is no difference in the appearance or quality of these wheels vs. a new, never used wheel. I used "Original Wheels" and "All Factory Wheels." There are no error lights (check engine, etc.) at all. Also, there is no MP3 or iPod jack, but I have a cassette adapter that plugs into your phone to allow you to play your iTunes, Pandora, or even Sirius music (subscription required.) There is a 6 CD changer in the trunk that works sporadically, so I do not use it. Also, the car never came with a spare (from the factory), but I purchased a mini spare from a BMW parts specialists on-line. I have never used it and I can't be 100% sure it will fit, even though it was purchased as fitting an '01 M5. There is a little display pixelation which is common in the E39. It's not an issue imo, but on one of the mileage numbers, it is noticeable at times (not for all numbers.) Note: I have the blue part of the BMW roundels colored in red. These are simply vinyl inserts that you or I can peel off. There was no glue used in the process and the original roundel is underneath. If you're looking for an extremely clean E39 M5, I'm confident you would be very happy with this one. Thanks Payment is due in 7 days, no warranty. |

BMW 8 Series turns 25 [w/video]
Wed, 04 Jun 2014From the very beginning, the BMW 8 Series was a head turner. It was hardly a common sight in the first place, and the angular lines and low, pointed nose made the GT look like something special on the road. It's been 25 years since the Bavarian brand's flagship coupe of the '90s debuted, and owners celebrated the anniversary in style in Germany.
The 8 Series still looks great today, but its popup headlights give away its age a little. You just don't see them anymore. It was introduced at the 1989 Frankfurt Motor Show as the 850i with a 5.0-liter V12 under the hood capable of 295 horsepower and 332 pound-feet of torque. Later, even bigger V12s would find their way in there. Production lasted until 1999, but they were rather exclusive with 30,621 built in its lifetime.
To celebrate the anniversary, several BMW clubs organized 120 examples for display at the company's headquarters in Munich. The brand took advantage of the display to show off the ultimate 8 prototype as well. The one-off special packed a 550-horsepower V12 and a body with optimized aero. That engine eventually became the basis for the one in the McLaren F1.
Motor Trend first to compare Jaguar XE and BMW 3 Series
Tue, Jun 30 2015How many automakers have loaded up how much ammo and taken how many shots at the BMW 3 Series? Yet here we are, decades on and at least a decade away from the 3 Series' halcyon days, waiting for someone to give the sport sedan something beyond a flesh wound. In this most recent episode of Head 2 Head, Johnny Lieberman goes to Spain to figure out if the Jaguar XE is the sedan to do it. Here the champion wears the guise of the 335i M Sport, powered by a 3.0-liter, turbocharged, inline-six with a square 300 horsepower and 300 pound-feet of torque run through a ZF eight-speed transmission. After a short time behind the wheel Lieberman quotes from a familiar hagiography, saying it's evident "just how great this car is and why it defines the segment." The all-aluminum challenger from Jaguar comes in XES trim, meaning a 3.0-liter, supercharged V6 with 340 hp and 332 lb-ft. It uses the same eight-speed transmission as the BMW, but with different programming. According to the specs in the video, some of which are manufacturer estimates, the Jaguar is heavier, more expensive, and much thirstier at the pump. Away from the spreadsheet, Lieberman holds that the XE looks better and feels more special inside. In case you're wondering, the comparo was done before MT could get its mitts on the 320-hp BMW 340i. Lieberman says the English company spent its money on the XE suspension and it shows, but there have been other efforts from other automakers with excellent dynamic chops that weren't enough to threaten the BMW. His final assessment is that one of the two cars is awesome, and one is quite a bit better. Watch the video to find out which is which.

Police arrest 'Fastest Lap Around Manhattan' driver [w/video]
Fri, 06 Sep 2013Don't speed. Don't drive recklessly. Don't try to break the unofficial record for a lap of Manhattan. And if you go against this reasonable advice, do not, under any circumstances, record it and post the video on YouTube. If you do, you'll end up like Christopher Adam Tang - under arrest and facing a bevy of charges relating to the video.
Tang posted the video, which showed him lapping Manhattan in 24 minutes last Wednesday, and it quickly went viral. Now Tang, who went by the online moniker AfroDuck, is in cuffs. According to a local CBS affiliate, he was picked up at his home on Wednesday evening by police, who also seized the car used in the video, a 2006 BMW Z4.
What isn't clear is how Tang was caught. His video seems carefully done in that there are no outwardly visible signs that point to him, while the video itself is clearly sped up. While the NYPD hasn't come out and said that Tang was caught due to its extensive surveillance systems around the city, police commissioner Ray Kelly did point out that the new systems "will assist in this type of investigation." Let that serve as a warning to anyone that tries to break the 24-minute barrier. Scroll down to watch the full video.
