This auction is for a:
 "Blacked Out" 2001 x5 3.0L loaded!

246k miles (shouldn't vary much.  I have a new company car so I unless someone test drives the car, no additional miles should be added)

This is a great car, and quite honestly I hate to part with it.  Our company is now providing us a car vs reimbursement, which is the only reason I am selling my baby (and this car has been babied).  I will try to give a completely open/honest description that's fair and not inflated so you know what you're getting.  Please feel free to ask any questions you would like.  Happy to answer them.  Also, if you live near Topeka and would like to come look at/test drive the car, no problem.   That's how confident I am.

-Body is in great shape...garage kept. No rust or accidents.   (2 owner)
-Paint is in good shape... There are some chips around the front grill which were touched up, but no major paint flaws.
-A few MINOR dents/dings on driver/passenger door but no paint missing, etc
-There are 2 scuffs-one on the front bumper, one on the rear. See pics
-Very good interior. The seats are in great shape...no rips/tears/cracks (I always used leather conditioners)
-The wood grain has a few cracks as these models get with age, but Still looks great. No crack in the dash, plastics etc
-ZERO pixels out on dash readout or radio. Very common to see issues...this car has none!
-Heated front seats
-3.0 engine RUNS STRONG...does not blow smoke, or burn oil, and the filter is CLEAN!

This X5 has been blacked out...all black exterior, including paint, rear lights smoked, side markers smoked, front grille black, all badges including wheels with black carbon fiber, wheels (BMW original 18" rims-professionally powder coated), etc.  interior is also all black, including seats, liner, etc.

This has been my baby, and treated as such.  I've always replaced items as needed and kept repairs up.  In the last yr to yr and a half I have replaced the following (yes this car has highway miles and yes you can get one with 100k miles, but I promise you you you will be replacing these parts soon so factor that into your decision on another more expensive lower miles version)

-Both front door carriers have been replaced (over time they brake and are expensive to replace) 
-front arms, ball joints, bearings etc
-alignment performed this summer when new front arms were replaced
-all new coils, spark plugs etc
-drive shaft carrier/bearing
-radiator (3 row, not cheap 1 row version), coolant flush for engine and new coolant
-intake manifold & gaskets (tune up also done at same time and hoses checked/replaced so no vacuum leaks)
-brakes (pads etc) and cross drilled rotors
-disa valve
-crank case valve and hoses
-throttle body gasket
-belts (serpentine etc)
-headlights reconditioned so they do not have the scratches and haze typically seen
-gas pedal
-air conditioning resistor (common issue that cuts out your air conditioning)
-new key purchased so the keyless entry does work (you will get 2 factory keys, but one is dead, so the keyless entry feature does not work...alas why I bought a new one
-MAF sensor

Other notes... 

-I ALWAYS used premium full synthetic oil and Lucas stabilizer at EVERY oil change...the filter is very clean
-all features that should work do work...ie the heat, air, washer fluid pumps, garage door opener feature, etc.
- this car has heated front seats and work
-all steering wheel features like volume cruise etc work as should
-I have not had any transmission, rear differential etc issues

****I will include all the old parts that I replaced/have in case you ever need a spare part, etc****

So, I listed all the great things...I will list areas that will need attention at some point, flaws etc to be fair:

-scratches/scuff on the bumper (see pics)- 1 front, 1 rear
-headliner sags a little ONLY ON THE MOON ROOF 
-cracks in the wood grain (dash etc...very common)
-shocks at some point will need replaced. They're not bad by any means and won't need to be replaced tomorrow, but at some point you may want to ,)
-chips in the paint on the hood/near the grill.  I have used scratch fill paint to touch it up, but just so you know it's there 
-tires were replaced last summer, and there is still about 50%+ tread, so again...at some point
-I would get a "pedal position sensor" error code that popped up frequently which is why I replaced the pedal.  It has not come back on since, so I'm assuming that issue is resolved
-one of the power steering hoses must have a slight leak in the line because the steering is a little stiffer, and you do get that 30 second squeal when it's cold until the air clears the line, then it's good to go
-I replace the oil drain plug every oil change and I do notice that their are some drips of oil that do occur at the plug. I MAY have to touch up the oil level by 1/2 qt over the 3mo between changes...so it's minimal but want to be transparent...again this car does not burn oil, smoke etc

Overall this is a great x5 that turns heads...and for the price, good luck finding a better deal with as many options, replaced parts etc.  that being said, this is a car with highway miles and things do wear out, break etc so please bid accordingly. 

I'm happy to answer any questions so please ask before you bid.  

A $500.00 non-refundable deposit through PayPal is due within 48 hrs. Balance in full with wire, verifiable cashiers check, or cash only due within one week after end of auction please.

 Im glad to help you with with shipping if needed.

Don't bid on this if you have no intention to follow through. I don't have time nor patience to deal with non payers.  I'm a fair guy (100% feedback) and I have tried to give you all the pros and cons, so please treat me the same.

Thank you and good luck!

Wunderlich creates two-wheel-drive hybrid BMW motorcycle

Tue, Nov 24 2015

Two wheel-drive motorcycles aren\\\\\\'t new, but more mainstream and niche companies are now dabbling in the technology. German aftermarket shop Wunderlich is the latest, creating the two-wheel drive BMW R1200GS LC by placing a 7.6-kilowatt hub motor on the front wheel. Wunderlich worked with Italian company Evolt on the innovation, good for 12 miles per hour by itself without the help of the boxer-powered rear wheel. Regenerative braking energy is stored in a small battery pack under the motorcycle\\\\\\'s front beak. Powered action works in forward, as well as in reverse up to three miles per hour. The rider is able to choose direction with a toggle switch in the cockpit. Wunderlich hasn\\\\\\'t said yet how power to the front wheel is controlled or if it is simply always fully on or off. It weighs 525 pounds, and has an allowable payload of another 467 pounds. Powering the front wheel, even with just 7.6 kW, would help move all that weight around in good conditions and could be a godsend in tough stuff out on the trail. Wunderlich showed off its creation at this year\\\\\\'s EICMA motorcycle show in Italy, we have a feeling some BMW owners will be waiting for word on production possibilities once the show is over.

BMW X2 in the works?

Thu, 20 Mar 2014

BMW could bring yet another niche-busting product to the market in 2017 if a report form a forum is to be believed. According to the BMW X1 Forum of Bimmerpost, 2017 could see the debut of the BMW X2. Yes, X2.
Allegedly, this car will ride on the UKL platform, which is slated to underpin both the next-generation Mini Countryman and BMW X1. The X2, though, will play the role occupied by the X6 relative to the X5 - that means it'll be the same basic vehicle with a more sporting (i.e. less practical) roofline. The denizens of the forum claim the X2 will only be offered with xDrive all-wheel drive, and unlike the X6 and soon-to-arrive X4, it will be available in both three and five-door variants.
We reached out to BMW for comment, and got the typical "There's no plans as of right now" statement, although spokesman Dave Buchko did add that, "It's fun to speculate."

2016 BMW 7 Series spied for the first time ever

Thu, 28 Feb 2013

Ladies and gentlemen, Bimmerphiles and automotive voyeurs of all stripes: here is your next-generation BMW 7 Series. Captured in photographs for the first time ever while doing a spot of cold-weather testing in Sweden, this newly slim 7er will most likely debut at the Frankfurt Motor Show in 2015 and launch in the 2016 model year.
Sources indicate that BMW is targeting a much lighter curb weight for the 7 Series, and will use learnings gained with the i3 and i8 development to add carbon fiber-reinforced plastics in the construction. In return we'd expect the new model - which uses the internal model designation "G11" - to offer improvements in handling, acceleration and fuel economy. As with the current 7 Series lineup, expect the engine range to include turbocharged inline-six engines, one or more V8s and a V12 option.
It's fair to say that, with the car's debut still years down the road, that BMW will work to launch with an impressive suite of in-car technology, too. A completely new version of iDrive shouldn't be ruled out. These shots mark the beginning of a long journey to 2015, and we expect to have loads more information to share in the coming months and years, so stay tuned.
