For Sale is my immaculate 2006 BMW M5 V10 SMG.  This car has over 550 horsepower.  I bought this car in February of 2013.  It is fully loaded and in excellent condition.  I have invested about $7,000 in after market upgrades, cosmetic upgrades and general maintenance, still under an extended WARRANTY.  


This car has also always been garage kept and only driven on nice days.  This car needs absolutely nothing done to it.  I also have a documented used car inspection performed by Auto-Trader. I am the second owner of the car.  Since I have owned it I have fixed several things. When I first purchased the car from a dealership without a warranty I experienced some issues with it shortly after getting it home (hence why this car is a better deal than a car you will buy from a dealership). I had a BMW Master Technician replace the battery, alternator, electric fan and also add the under drive pulley, replaced both belt tensioners, installed new belts and new coolant.  Anyone who knows anything about this car can tell you that this is an enormous job that would have cost over $5,000 at a BMW dealership. 

The following has been done to this car since I have owned it:


New battery $500

New alternator $500

New electric fan $1,000

New Hood Struts $100

BMC Filters

RPI Scoops and block off plates $370

RPI Underdrive Pulley $455

(both belts replaced)

Tensioner Pulleys (2) $300

Blacked out Kidney Grills $150

Blacked out Side Vents $150

Blacked out BMW Emblems all the way around $150

Blacked out M5 Badge $75

Tinted Windows $300

Painted black brake calipers and rotors $100


20x10 rear Powdercoated wheels

20x9   front $2,000 

Hankook Ventus V12 eve Rear Tires  275 30ZR20

      Front Tires 245 35ZR20

(tires have 60-80% tread life left)


The car also has a fresh oil change ($170) and also a fresh interior and exterior detail ($300). Brakes have over 65% of life left.  I have all service documents and receipts for the car since I have owned it.  I also paid to have the front license plate bolt holes filled and painted (previous owner ran a front plate).  Car is in excellent condition.  One minor scratch about 1/2 inch long on the drivers side rear door and a minor scuff on the rear bumper from loading a suit case.  


This car is priced competitively for the reason that it is turn key.  You may  find a cheaper car from a dealership like I did a year ago but then you may be in the same boat that I was soaking almost $3,000 in parts to fix a car that a dealership didn’t want to fix.  These cars are extremely expensive to work on and all of the work has been done to this one.  I purchased a warranty for the car shortly after fixing all of the parts for some extra insurance.  The warranty is transferable for an extra $1,800.  The warranty covers everything on the car bumper to bumper. I am selling the car to free up some money for a start up business, no other reason. 


Please serious buyers only, I am firm on the price and will hold onto the car as long as it takes to get my full asking price.  You will not find a nicer looking and performing car out there for this price that you can drive and not worry about soaking any money into.  Only the best and genuine parts used on this car.  I will accept cash, cashiers check or a loan from a bank. Thank you for looking!

Alpina D3 Bi-Turbo torquing its way toward Frankfurt

Mon, 09 Sep 2013

Few tuners benefit from the kind of factory support that Alpina does, giving the pseudo-aftermarket firm nearly as much official status as BMW's own M division. And this is its latest product.
Set to debut, as expected, at the Frankfurt Motor Show this week is the new Alpina D3 Bi-Turbo, which you can consider, for all intents and purposes, the diesel M3 that BMW never built. While the outgoing D3 (which was Alpina's best-selling model) used a four-cylinder engine, Autocar reports that the new model packs a 3.0-liter, twin-turbo inline-six diesel to drive a respectable 345 horsepower but a mammoth 516 pound-feet of torque to either the rear wheels or all four through the optional availability of xDrive. (European buyers will also be able to choose between sedan and wagon bodystyles.)
The engine is the same as you'd find in the XD3 and D5 (Alpina's diesel performance versions of the X3 and 5 Series, respectively), but in the lighter 3 Series form can propel the D3 Bi-Turbo up to 62 miles per hour in 4.6 seconds and on to an Autobahn-crunching top speed of 173 mph. And as per Alpina tradition, visual cues are minimal, with a subtly optimized aero kit and 19- or available 20-inch alloy wheels. Unfortunately, the 7 Series-based B7 is the only Alpina we get on this side of the Atlantic, but an oil-drenched performance enthusiast can dream.

VW Golf R pitted against BMW M235i in enthusiast's choice battle

Fri, 15 Aug 2014

Most people don't have two, open spots in their garage to fit a practical daily driver and a fire-breathing performance car for the weekends. That's what makes vehicles like the latest Volkswagen Golf R and BMW M235i just about perfect for the average person. Both of these Germans can lope around as a commuter 90 percent of the time and be perfectly comfortable. However, when you want to walk in the door with a big smile on your face, you can take the back roads home and get a real thrill from them.
In his latest short video, Chris Harris from Drive tests these surprisingly comparable German performance cars. Both of them offer buyers in the neighborhood of 300 horsepower, with the BMW winning out with 320 hp. However, the Golf R gets standard all-wheel drive, which is now an option on the M235i. Harris has quite positive things to say about these Europeans, but you're going to have to watch the video to hear just what he thinks.

A BMW i3 will cost you $100,000 in Brazil

Wed, Oct 1 2014

Brazil is a long way from the US, and the price of the BMW i3 in that South American country is even further away from what Americans pay for the same electric vehicle. But that hasn't stopped a few wealthy Brazilians from taking the plunge. The BMW i3 REx – i.e., the one with the gas-powered range-extender – is the first mass-produced vehicle of its kind to be imported to Brazil (there are a few Nissan Leaf vehicles in fleet use), and those intrepid buyers are forking over about $100,000 to own the vehicle, according to Just-Auto. The country's first 100 i3's were recently received in Sao Paolo, and about 30 of them have been sold. That pricetag is a wee bit higher than in the US, where the i3 starts under $42,000. BMW did open a $261-million factory in Brazil this year, but the i3 continues to be produced exclusively in Germany. It's not just fancy new plug-in cars and World Cup tickets that cost a lot in Brazil. The Volkswagen Golf, which retails for less than $18,000 in the States, costs about $23,000 in Brazil and the Economist ran a series of articles last year explaining how currency changes have resulted in the dollar-to-Brazilian real exchange rate surging in recent years.
