Immaculate Arizona M5 with low miles and pretty much every option available, 2 owners and clean autocheck scoring in above-average condition, zero accidents. I'll attempt to go over the car as thoroughly as possible, but please do not hesitate to ask any questions or come check out the car in person, it's located about an hour West of Chicago in Saint Charles, IL. One of the most important features about this M5 is the completely transferable free maintenance package that pays for all scheduled maintenance- including oil changes- all the way to 100,000 miles at BMW dealerships. It was last serviced at Patrick BMW in Schaumburg, IL. And it's INCLUDED with the sale.
Exterior:
Rare Alpine white in very nearly mint condition. The paint is very, very shiny no fading whatsoever and in immaculate condition and also has a full front 3M clear bra. I've documented the two known blemishes at the bottom of the photos. One is behind the right rear wheel, the second is on the right front fender near the side mirror. In very, very good condition. Zero chips or scratches in any of the glass, zero dents or dings anywhere. None. The wheels are also nearly mint, no peeling or fading or chipping or corroding. Two of the wheels actually are mint, the other two have two very minor curb rubs each and I have documented these as well. The tires are all matching (Bridgestone Potenza) and have plenty of tread left. The same goes for pads and rotors front and rear. The rear window and all side windows are also tinted and the tint is in perfect condition. I'm not sure what percent since they were tinted by the previous owner, but, they seem darker than 35%, so I would have to guess 20%.
Interior:
Black on light tan Merino leather with black suede headliner. The leather is flawless with no blemishes whatsoever. And the leather is genuinely everywhere; covering the dash and the doors top to bottom, even the inside of the pockets in the doors are lined with leather. This is one of the best options for the car due to being so supple and it simply wears much, much better than the standard leather that tends to crease and become shiny and over-all just look worn. And it replaces so much of what would normally just be plastic trim. All switchgear and instruments work exactly as they should and show virtually zero wear. You can see in the picture showing the left side steering wheel controls that there is slight wear to the soft rubber coating just below the buttons. Other than that, mint condition.
Mechanical:
There are zero mechanical issues with this car, it has been under warranty it's entire life, therefore it has been regularly inspected. The motor starts, idles, revs and runs exactly as it should. The transmission shifts and behaves exactly as it should, as do all of the SMG settings. The car tracks straight and seems to have a perfect alignment, the tires also show no signs of abnormal wear. The power steering shows no signs of abnormal function and is quiet and responsive. All suspension components and bushings are in perfect working order and the ride is controlled and behaves exactly as it should. All fluids appear to smell and look like they should, and are at proper levels, there appear to be zero leaks anywhere. The brakes behave exactly as they should, though due to not being driven for a couple weeks the rotors show some rust that will go away shortly after being driven again. There are zero malfunction lights anywhere.
Features:
There are MANY features and options on this car, almost every option available. There are obvious features for a car that was some $100k new, so I'll stick to the less obvious ones starting with options; heated steering wheel (also power tilt and telescope), Comfort Access (includes smart key that recognizes when the key is in proximity and allows the doors to be unlocked and the car started without taking the key out of your pocket/bag/purse), soft close automatic doors, power rear sunshade and manual side sunshades, heated rear seats, 'M' multifunction front seats with active width adjustment (adjustable bolsters that respond to steering input and hold you in place during cornering, also adjustable knee support, adjust the seat back and shoulder bolsters separately, power adjustable active headrest, 4-way lumbar support and memory settings for seat position for both seats and mirrors and steering wheel for driver's seat), wood trim, head-up display, SIRIUS satellite radio (needs subscription), iPod and USB adapter located in center console, enhanced premium sound and full Merino leather with alcantara headliner. Totaling over $11,000 in options. Other features include adjustable horsepower, throttle response, transmission response, electronic damping and stability control, limited slip rear differential, rain sensing wipers, automatic headlights, navigation, bluetooth, 6 CD changer, BMW iDrive, sunroof, power folding mirrors, etc.
Overview:
If you're looking for an M5 I don't think you'll find a better one than this, taking into consideration the very nearly mint condition inside and out, the free maintenance package for 60k more miles, the extensive list of options and the rare color. Please let me know if you would like any additional pictures or if you have any questions at all. This car is also for sale locally, the auction may be terminated before the end if it sells locally.
I have experience shipping vehicles nationwide, so let me know if you need assistance with shipping, I would be happy to help. Though the full cost of shipping is at the buyer's expense.
I've done my best to describe the car as accurately as possible, but it is still a used car being sold AS-IS without any warranty so please ask any questions you may have before bidding or buying-it-now. Thank you!

BMW's new strategy: Electric everything
Mon, Sep 12 2016Mercedes isn't the only car maker determined to beat Tesla before it gets huge. Sources speaking to German business daily Handelsblatt claim that BMW is in the midst of planning an executive shuffle that will also include a big shift in its electric vehicle strategy. While the company would still offer ground-up EV designs like the i3, the new strategy would greenlight electric versions of some of BMW's most important vehicles, including the 3-series sedan, X4 crossover, and iconic Mini. If the leak is accurate, management is likely to approve the change at the end of September. We've asked BMW for its take on the report, although it declined to comment to Handelsblatt. It wouldn't be shocking to see the Munich crew change tack, though. While Tesla has received hundreds of thousands of Model 3 pre-orders, i3 sales dropped in 2016 – the upscale (if oddly-shaped) EV just isn't as hot as it once was. If BMW electrifies some of its most popular cars, you wouldn't have to choose between a super-efficient, eco-friendly EV and the familiar designs of the brand's mainstream driving machines.The story originally appeared on Engadget, your guide to this connected life.Related Video: Featured Gallery Mini Vision Next 100 Concept View 38 Photos Green BMW MINI Electric Hybrid engadget
2015 BMW X6
Mon, 13 Oct 2014Most everyone would agree that BMW offers a range of very attractive and well-proportioned coupes, sedans, crossovers and wagons. Yet there is one member of its family that has always struck us as a bit odd: the X6.
Proudly coined "The world's first Sports Activity Coupe" by its German maker, the X6 features a wedge-shaped body with a characteristic sloping roofline that appears to squash the heads of its second-row occupants. The crossover rides high off the ground, with a pronounced gap between its chassis and oversized wheel/tire package, capped by short overhangs on both ends. Although curious to the eyes, its overall styling is masculine, and its stance aggressive.
Whether you consider the X6 to be attractive or an eyesore - opinions seem about equally divided - there is nobody at BMW questioning its business model. As of today, the automaker has sold more than 260,000 copies of its five-door crossover, which is why it has flown us to Spartanburg, SC, to sample its second-generation 2015 BMW X6.
2022 Villa d'Este Concours d'Elegance Mega Gallery | The show in pictures
Mon, May 23 2022COMO, Italy — Held annually, the Villa d'Este Concours d'Elegance is, in many ways, Europe's version of the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance. It takes place in a beautiful location, and it brings together an impressive selection of rare and valuable cars. It's a real treat for the eyes, the ears, and, if you're into champagne, the palate. The 2022 edition of the show was no exception: About 50 cars were shipped to Lake Como from over a dozen countries, and it wasn't just the usual suspects. Sure, there were a lot of pre-war cars (including a couple of one-off models), but some of the icons that younger enthusiasts grew up with (like the Lamborghini Countach) were present as well. This year's event was split into eight categories: The Art Deco Era of Motor Car Design, The Supercharged Mercedes-Benz, How Grand Entrances Were Once Made, Eight Decades of Ferrari Represented in Eight Icons, "Win on Sunday, Sell on Monday," BMW's M Cars and Their Ancestors, Pioneers That Chased the Magic 300 KPH, And a design award for concept and prototypes. The jury gave the coveted "best of show" award to a 1937 Bugatti 57 S owned by Andrew Picker of Monaco, while the aforementioned classes were won by, respectively: The Bugatti 57 S, shown below, A 1936 Mercedes-Benz 540K Cabriolet, A 1956 Chrysler Boano Coupe Speciale, A 1966 Ferrari 356 P Berlinetta Speciale Tre Posti, A 1961 Porsche 356 B Carrera Abarth GTL, A 1972 BMW 3.0 CSL, A 1989 Porsche 959 Sport, And the Bugatti Bolide concept unveiled in 2020. Winning at Villa d'Este is a big deal: The cars are judged by a panel of highly experienced judges. No one gave me a scoring sheet, presumably out of fear that I'd award points to the late-model Fiat 600 lurking in the parking lot, but several cars that didn't win an award caught my eye. One is a 1934 Bugatti Type 59 Sports, a grand-prix racer that was once owned by King Leopold III of Belgium and that has never been restored — its patina is inimitable. Another is a 1961 BMW 700 RS. One of two built (the other is in the BMW collection), it's a tiny, ultra-light roadster related to the 700 and powered by a 697-cubic-centimeter air-cooled flat-twin tuned to develop 70 horsepower. It won several hill-climb events during the 1960s, and it's one of the rarest cars ever to wear a BMW roundel. Aston Martin's freshly-restored 1979 Bulldog concept was cool to see as well; check out the cassette player integrated into the headliner!
