Up for sale is my 2006 BMW E60 M5 with 64,000 miles. I have owned her for about 4 years now. I hate to sell her, but with the new baby I need get something more "kid friendly".

I have all the service records of everything I have had done to the car. All of the normal things that go wrong with the E60 M5 have already been done.

New Clutch and Flywheel ~50,000 miles
The clutch on these cars in computer controlled. They last about 50,000 miles. This was replaced by the dealership before I took ownership. If you are looking at other M5s, make sure this has been done. It costs over $4,000!

Belts and Hoses ~55,000 miles
The belts and a couple steering hoses were replaced under general maintenance.

New Front and Rear Brakes ~60,000 miles
The front and rear brakes have been replaced. The discs on the front were replaced with factory cross drilled rotors.

Front Bushings ~60,000 miles
All the front bushings were replaced to tighten up the front.

Rear Tires ~60,000 miles
The rear tires were replaced with 305/30-19. They are a touch wider than factory, but just slim enough not to rub.

Brake Fluid ~64,000 miles
The brake fluid was flushed out when the light came on. Probably not necessary, but it was already in for a rear ball joint that was loose and got a 4-wheel alignment when that part was replaced.

BMW recommends the oil be changed at 14,000 mile increments according to the on board computer. I have been changing the oil at around 3,000 mile intervals.

The car also has the halo lights replaced with white instead of the old looking yellow lamps and I just put new wipers on the car. It has an exhaust system and lowering springs that were installed before I purchased the car. The exhaust really opens up the sound of the V10, but keeps it quiet enough that the neighbors won't hate you.

The wheels were sold to me as powder coated factory 19" wheels. They look great, but have a few rock chips in them but have never been curbed or bent. Looking at the chips, I believe the wheels might be just factory wheels painted black.

The paint has some oxidation on the hood, roof and trunk lid from the Florida sun. A good waxing keeps it looking great. It has a few rock chips and dings as expected on a 7 year old car. The only noticeable one is on the drivers door smaller than a dime. It looks as if it was touched up at one point and through the years of washing has revealed itself.

The interior has no rips or scuffs on the leather. The drivers seat looks great and the back seats look perfect. The passenger seat has slight wrinkles as visible in the picture. The metal trim has a ding as shown on the picture and the rubber coating on some of the plastic pieces is peeling in a few places as it does in every BMW.

Please Call or Text me with any questions at 954-812-0844. The car is available to show at anytime.

BMW discussing new plant with Mexican authorities

Mon, 19 Aug 2013

Drawn in by low wages and manufacturing costs, BMW could be the next automaker to set up a manufacturing facility in Mexico. Automotive News is reporting that the German automaker has had discussions with local Mexican governments regarding a possible assembly plant, but there is no word as to when a decision may come down. Last we heard, BMW was reportedly looking to build the 3 Series in Mexico.
A key determining factor for this new plant is a free-trade agreement between the US and Europe, which according to the article, would give BMW better "flexibility and cost structure" to open another plant in North America. In terms of luxury automakers, Audi is currently building a new plant in Mexico and Mercedes-Benz is considering opening one in conjunction with Nissan for the CLA-Class, and in the bigger picture, Honda and Mazda are also preparing to kick off vehicle production in Mexico.

The next-generation BMW M5 starts here

Fri, May 15 2015

The next-generation BMW 5 Series hasn't even arrived yet, but BMW is hard at work testing the hottest version of the popular sedan – the sixth-generation M5. Now admittedly, these photos might not look much like an M5. The wheels are big, but not uncommonly so. There's no wild and crazy body kit, or hugely flared wheel arches. But what's that in the back? Are those four exhaust tips? Why yes, yes they are. And take a second look at those wheels. Notice the pizza-pan-sized brakes and huge calipers? Yet another M5 giveaway. But as our spies rightly point out, even though this does represent development work on the next M5, it's a very early prototype. That could also explain the charge port on the driver's side front fender, a feature that we've seen on other 5 Series prototypes. This does not mean the next M5 will be a plug-in hybrid, however. What the next M5 will likely be, though, is all-wheel drive. This isn't a huge surprise, considering that the Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG has already gone AWD, while the Porsche Panamera Turbo and Audi RS6/7 have always had four driven wheels. BMW has even hinted at just such a development, with former M boss Dr. Friedrich Nitschke going as far as saying AWD could arrive on the next M5. "On our cars we are thinking of all-wheel drive, but it won't come before we get the successor of the M5 and M6," Nitschke said in an October 2013 report. "That's the timing and it's not practical to react in the current life cycles." At this point, it's simply too early to guess at when or where the next-generation M5 will debut. We're expecting the next-gen 5 Series at either the 2016 Geneva Motor Show or Auto China 2016 in Beijing. The next M5 could join it, although it's possible it'd get its very own debut at a later date.

Toyota-BMW sports car to gain all-wheel drive, supercapacitors?

Mon, 24 Mar 2014

Sales of salt are skyrocketing following the latest rumor of the planned joint-venture sports car from Toyota and BMW. The whisperings indicate that project will spawn both a replacement for the BMW Z4 and a long-awaited Toyota Supra successor based on the FT-1 Concept shown above. Word is that the new cars will feature front-engine, all-wheel-drive layouts with plug-in hybrid technology. This news would appear to run somewhat counter to earlier reports that BMW and Toyota are teaming for a six-figure hybrid supercar.
According to Autocar, the project will benefit from the experience Toyota gained with the TS030, its hybridized Le Mans prototype. The evidence for this is, of all things, a Toyota Yaris - in particular, the Yaris Hybrid R that was shown at the 2013 Frankfurt Motor Show last September. That car used a 300-horsepower, 1.6-liter gas engine, while a pair of 60-horsepower electric motors provided all-wheel-drive push (an additional motor also sent additional juice to the front axle). The 414-system-horsepower drivetrain used supercapacitors in place of the traditional lithium-ion batteries of traditional hybrids.
For the production sports cars, Autocar claims that the Yaris Hybrid R's setup will serve as the basis for the new powertrain, although it won't be a direct carryover. Instead, a 2.0-liter BMW engine will be paired with Toyota-designed, BMW-built motors.
