Ok, so it's time to let this one go so I can get my new one. I am the second owner of this beautiful fast red machine and have taken EXCELLENT care of it. It is garaged every night, washed very frequently, all maintenance is 100% complete and of course oil changed on scheduled times with full synthetics from day 1. (Oil just changed today so you don't even have to worry about that) This car is all wheel drive and is 100% a southern car so no rust.

This vehicle comes with a fully transferrable 24month/24,000 mile warranty that I purchased when I bought the car from the original owner. The warranty is through Assurant (USAA trusted company) and is a very awesome/reliable company. During my ownership of the vehicle, I had the best BMW mechanic around (Rhine West) go over it with a fine tooth comb and fix all pending/ current issues so now this machine is 100% ready for the next owner. I also upgraded the brakes to cross drilled brakes with ceramic pads and also just put a brand new set of tires on the vehicle now you have a full warranty on those too. 

One look and drive of this you will see what I am talking about, YOU will fall in love like I did. This vehicle is very safe for the family and has a set for when you need to get on it, I average 20mpg so decent on gas for a V-8.

It was top of the line in 2005 with a MSRP of over $70,000 and yes I still have the window sticker. KBB has the value of the vehicle at a little over $20,300 and that does not include the warranty, BMW sun screen or the BMW roof rails I have installed. So really i'm throwing those in at no charge to you. 
Options: Multi disc CD, Panoramic roof, assisted park, cold weather package, Factory tow hitch (I just bought haven't installed yet but you can't buy them any more so they go for a ton of money), BMW roof rails, creme leather heated seats. 

I know you will have questions and I will answer them all because I know I forgot stuff. Vehicle just turned over 80,500 miles so it is low miles also. All this being said, I am NOT in a rush to sell it and I will not budge much on the price at all so don't try and low ball me you will not get a response. Also no joy rides this is my baby only serious buyers will be entertained. Call me for more pictures or information. 812-453-6126


REVISED: In accident report it notes there was a rear end collision that resulted in a air bag deployment. This accident was a minor accident and no air bags were deployed it was the seat belt pre-tensioners that are a part of the air bag system. I have all paperwork on the repairs to show what was replaced. Yes, it had to get towed because these vehicles are equipped with a fuseable link for the battery that in an accident the link will disconnect making the vehicle immobile to help prevent a fire. Once again I have the paperwork to show the repairs. All work comes with a lifetime warranty for defects and was done at a highly sought after collision repair facility. Please feel free to ask any questions you may have I want to assure you you are buying a very safe and sound vehicle.

Here is a blurb that will help explain the added safety features in this vehicle in relation to any crash. :

Passive safety.

An integrated package of intelligent safety measures ensures that if an accident cannot be avoided, the threat of injury will be kept to a minimum.

The occupant cell of your BMW is extremely rigid, with bodyshell components made of multi-phase steel and special reinforcements in the floorpan and doors maintaining a protective frame around the cabin in the event of an accident. At the same time, other elements of the vehicle are designed to absorb the force of the impact: the reversible deformation elements in the front and rear of the vehicle, for example, are able to absorb the force of an impact at speeds up to 15 km/h, leaving the bodyshell completely undamaged.

The moment an accident situation is detected, an entire network of additional safety elements is activated, functioning in precise coordination to ensure maximum possible protection of you and your passengers. The airbags are deployed at precisely the right moment and to the right degree relative to the nature of the accident, thanks to a system of sensors within the vehicle. The seatbelt pretensioner is activated pyrotechnically, holding occupants firmly in place, while the seatbelt force limiter and integrated seatbelt buckles ensure that the belts themselves do not cause injury. 

As well as minimising the risk of injury in an accident, the passive safety system assists in getting speedy help: it automatically activates the hazard light, decouples the battery, turns on the cabin lights and unlocks all the doors. In models that include the BMW Professional navigation system, Bluetooth and ConnectedDrive Services, the system also automatically makes an emergency call, transmitting data on the location of the vehicle.


Once again since the vehicle was rear ended at a slow speed by the other vehicle the safety systems airbag sensors did not measure so only discharged the pyrotechnic pretensioners.

BMW confirms M4 DTM for next season

Tue, 20 Aug 2013

Fans of BMW performance had two events to keep an eye on this weekend: the reveal of the M4 Concept at Pebble Beach, and the efforts of the Bavarian automaker's DTM teams at the Nurburgring. What ties them together, however, is what BMW has in store for next year.
The German carmaker has confirmed that it's already working on a new M4 DTM to campaign in the highly-competitive touring car series starting next season. It didn't reveal any details, but we can expect the M4 to make the same jump to competition spec as the M3 did before it. And with some success, we might add: successive versions of the M3 have won 48 DTM races over the years, starting with the checkered flag which Harald Grohs claimed at Hockenheim in 1987 through to the same race which Augusto Farfus won earlier this year. After taking home the title for BMW in its first year back in DTM last season, Bruno Spengler also won at the Red Bull Ring in Austria two months ago, but the Bimmer teams seem to be having a bit of trouble defending its title against fresh assaults from Audi and Mercedes.
BMW undoubtedly hopes the new M4 DTM will help it turn another new leaf, and we're looking forward to seeing how it all shapes up. Read more in the press release below.

BMW gearing up for Sochi Olympics with bobsled documentary [w/video]

Fri, Jan 3 2014

BMW might be a German brand, but that isn't keeping its US branch from helping out Team USA as the 22nd Winter Olympics gets set to kick off in Sochi, Russia next month. We last reported on BMW's partnership with Team USA's bobsled team in November of 2012, but with barely a month until the opening ceremony, it's about time we hear something new about the team's progress. And that's exactly what's going to happen when Driving on Ice airs this Sunday afternoon. The documentary charts the progress of the Team USA/BMW partnership to redesign the team's two-man bobsled for an event in which the USA hasn't captured gold in since 1936. And if you're concerned that this will be nothing more than a long advertisement for BMW, then you'll enjoy knowing that the program has more to do with the Team USA bobsledders than with the automaker. Even the trailer stars a number of team members and coaches, along with BMW DesignWorks USA's Michael Scully, lead designer on the program. There's a short preview embedded below, so if you just can't wait for next month's Olympics to kick off, you'll want to tune into NBC at 12:30 pm (Eastern time). Scroll down to watch the video preview and check out the full press release from BMW. BMW Slides into 2014 Winter Olympic Year with Announcement of U.S. Olympic Marketing Campaign, Bobsled Documentary. "Driving on Ice," a Film About BMW's Redesign of the Team USA Two-man Bobsled, to Air This Sunday on NBC. Woodcliff Lake, NJ – January 3, 2013... BMW of North America, the Official Mobility Partner of the United States Olympic Committee (USOC), today announced its U.S. Olympic marketing campaign for the Sochi 2014 Olympic Winter Games which includes a series of Olympic-themed advertisments, consumer and retail activations, social and digital media executions, and a national drive campaign to benefit Team USA. In addition, a documentary on BMW's complete redesign of the U.S. two-man bobsled entitled "Driving on Ice" will air this Sunday, Jan. 5 at 12:30 p.m. EST/11:30 a.m. CST on NBC. "Driving on Ice" chronicles BMW's collaboration with the USA Bobsled & Skeleton Federation (USBSF) to deliver a fleet of six new two-man bobsleds, applying the automaker's world-class design and engineering expertise to help Team USA chase its first Olympic gold medal in the event since 1936.

The importance of Angel Eyes, Ventiports and four round taillights

Sun, 01 Sep 2013

Just the other day, we told you about how Lincoln isn't really a luxury brand, according to Ford's head design man, J Mays. His argument was that Lincoln lacked the unique DNA to differentiate it from the rest of the market, although the arrival of the MKZ is beginning to change that. Now, we have this video from Autoline Detroit, where Jim Hall, an analyst for 2953 Analytics who was quoted in yesterday's Lincoln story, explains the influence of certain styling cues and how they impact the brands.
Using BMW (Angel Eyes) and Buick (Ventiports) as examples for small, simple touches that serve to distinguish the brand's vehicles on the road, Hall then points out how changing trademark styling features, as Chevrolet has done on the new Corvette Stingray, can hurt the vehicle's public perception. Take a look at the full video below for an interesting dive into what these styling features mean to their individual brands.
