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 details Concept X5 eDrive ahead of New York debut

Sun, 13 Apr 2014

Already weighing more than most other types of vehicles and with the space to accommodate the extra equipment, crossovers and SUVs arguably make for one of the more ideal platforms to transform into a hybrid. And there have been a handful of them - like the Audi Q5, Infiniti QX60/Nissan Pathfinder, Porsche Cayenne/Volkswagen Touareg, Lexus RX450h/Toyota Highlander and Cadillac Escalade/Chevy Tahoe/GMC Yukon - but by and large the majority of hybrids on the market are sedans and hatchbacks. BMW, however, looks poised to join the minority with the X5.
The Bavarian automaker showcased the X5 eDrive concept at Frankfurt last year, and as promised, has now revealed the followup it will present at the New York Auto Show in just a few days. The new Concept X5 eDrive, as BMW has now revealed, pairs a 2.0-liter turbo four good for 245 horsepower to a 95-hp electric motor to deliver a combined 340 horsepower. Its lithium-ion battery can power it for up to 20 miles and at speeds up to 75 miles per hour before the gasoline engine needs to kick in. All that without sacrificing the vehicle's utility, maintaining an almost perfectly flat loading floor with 40:20:40 split-folding rear seats, and without sacrificing much on performance, either: with a 0-62 time of seven seconds flat, the X5 eDrive concept is quicker off the line than the production X5 with the 2.5-liter turbodiesel and just a tenth off of the 3.0-liter turbodiesel.
With the full technical details now released (you can delve into it all in the press release below), the only question remains when BMW will actually put the X5 eDrive into production. Given its appearance in New York, though, we gather that whenever it does reach showrooms, it'll reach American ones as well.

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.

Jeremy Clarkson names 10 worst cars for 2015 and 2016

Wed, Aug 24 2016

When Jeremy Clarkson, outspoken automotive journalist, ex- Top Gear host, and co-host on The Grand Tour, drives a car he doesn't like he doesn't pull his punches. As Jezza harshly puts it, cars shouldn't just be a form of transportation. These 10 cars made Clarkson's "the terrible 10" list on his column in The Sunday Times for lacking imagination and not giving the journalist "the Fizz," which his list of top 10 cars did. In typical Clarkson fashion, the list is controversial. Some of the cars on Clarkson's list have received praise from other outlets, which shouldn't really come as a surprise since he usually goes against the majority's opinion. Nonetheless, there's at least one car that will catch you off guard. To get a glimpse at Clarkson's reviews and the entire list of cars, head over to his column in The Sunday Times.
