2003 BMW X5 4.4L Sport Model. It is Black on Black (Leather) and it is in extremely great shape as you can see from the pictures. It has the 4.4L V8 engine with ample power to move this car at a very brisk pace. In comparison to the 3.0, fuel consumption is marginally more - but you can't get enough of the power.

It comes with heated front seats, Wide Navigation Screen with an Updated MK4 Navigation that provides 3D / Perspective Map images. It also has a 6-Disc CD Changer as well as Parking Assist Sensors, Active Hill Descent, and even rear reclining electric seats. The car comes with rear window privacy shades as well. It is equipped with self-leveling BMW Xenon Headlights and 19' Allow wheels with nearly new tires on them. It also comes with a Full-Size Spare tire. The Steering wheel has been upgraded to a newer more modern ///M-Sport Wheel from an M5. Other features are automatic windows in all fours doors, power folding mirrors and power Moon / Sunroof.

I recently replaced the passenger side window regulator and the navigation screen on the car. The car also had New Catalytic Converters installed early this year - around March, 2013.

NEW STARTER - 10/30/2013: Replaced the starter with an OEM New / Rebuilt Unit as well as replaced the Support Brace with new OEM Bolts and Nuts.

NEW BRAKES - 11/7/2013: New brakes were installed on the car with a Brake Fluid / Flush as well. Zimmerman Coated Rotos + Akebono Euro Pads + New Brake Pad Wear Sensors from BMW (OEM).

NEW LOWER CHAIN TENSIONER - 11/16/2013: I replaced the Lower Chain Tensioner as a preventative measure to prolong the life of the timing chain guides. This was replaced with a BMW OEM unit.

NEW OEM Hitch Kit - 11/20/2013: I just had a brand new OEM Hitch Kit installed on the car. These are very tough to find these days as BMW is out of stock. This is not an aftermarket kit, it is the Westfalia Kit made specifically for this car and giving it a towing capacity of 6000 Ibs Plus.
I can provide the dealer receipts / invoices.

I am the 4th owner, and the prior owners to me maintained the car meticulously. It was a rare find indeed. One of the previous owners was a BMW Technician and ensured the car was serviced regularly and any issues were taken care of promptly. I have a stack of receipts / records I can show you upon inspection. I have all the Owner's Manuals and records for the car from new. Even have the original dealer key tag - go figure.

Everything works great on this car and it drives beautifully. Whether you are going antique shopping, taking a long trip, or towing your Camper.... - this car is ideal. It seats five adults very comfortably.

The car currently has 127,000 miles on it but it is still being driven. As I said, it runs impeccably with no issues to mention. Also registration is paid up till September of 2014.

PLEASE NOTE: The car is also being offered for sale elsewhere which may result in an early end to this auction.

TRADES: I will consider trades depending on the offer.

Behind the Scenes of BMW's 'Drift Mob,' Part 2 [w/video]

Tue, 01 Jul 2014

After spending four days practicing about a dozen drift stunt moves in a parking lot for an upcoming BMW "Drift Mob" internet mini-film, Rhys Millen, Sam Hübinette, Dai Yoshihara, Rich Rutherford, and Conrad Grunewald are finally ready for show time. We are brought to the huge urban traffic circle to see the stunts performed midway through the day to observe for a couple of hours.
The undertaking is massive, with multiple cameras set up, scores of crew members, a helicopter filming from above, a rigged pickup for car-to-car shots, sidewalks lined with security and plenty of curious onlookers, and oh, yeah, a major intersection of a top world city shut down for an entire weekend.
The five drifting legends are nestled in their identical red BMW M235i coupes, which have been modified with special handbrakes but essentially nothing else you can't get on a stock version, and are listening to direction from director Mic Rodgers and stunt coordinator Riley Harper. We're basically given free rein of the set, to shoot the cars, the drivers, and at one point, even hopping in with Yoshihara for one of the admittedly more tame stunts. Even then, the g-forces are so severe that they flip our cameraphone's video recording from landscape mode to portrait. Yes, this is a pretty cool day to be reporting on cars, and as we said during our first installment of our behind the scenes coverage of Drift Mob, we're honored to be the only US media outlet here to tell the tale.

Auto execs surveyed say VW, BMW most likely to grow

Thu, 17 Jan 2013

A new survey of top global automotive executives indicates both Volkswagen and BMW are the most likely to grow their market share over the next five years.
Tax advisory firm KPMG LLP has released its 14th annual Global Automotive Executive Survey, which includes responses from over 200 executives. A total of 81 percent of respondents said they expect to see Volkswagen make gains, compared to 70 percent last year. BMW, meanwhile, saw 70 percent of those surveyed say they believe the company will increase its market share. That's a jump of 7 percentage points over last year. This is the first time in the history of the survey that BMW has claimed the second-place spot.
Meanwhile, Hyundai has seen its perceived market share potential slacken for the third year in a row. Around 61 percent of those surveyed predicted gains for Hyundai, down from 63 in 2012. Toyota also has a surprising year, but for just the opposite reason. While the manufacturer had slipped in ranking since 2011, it enjoyed the largest increase of any company in the 2013 survey, jumping to 68 percent from 44 percent last year.
