This vehicle is currently located in Atlanta, GA.  I am a used car dealer.  I basically purchased this vehicle as a toy.  I was going to use it as a track car.  When I purchased the vehicle, it did not run and drive.  The engine was locked.  The cause seemed to be a blown head gasket.  No coolant in radiator, all the coolant was in the block when we drained the oil.  I had a perfect engine & gearbox out of another M5 that was wrecked badly and not worth repairing.  That engine went into this car.  The donor cars mileage at the time of the swap was 86,348 and the donor car was a 2002 M5.  If you want the VIN to verify or pics of the donor car, just let me know.

This vehicle that I am selling ONLY comes with a Florida Certificate of Destruction.  Please don't ask me why, where, how to get a title for it, etc.  The answer will be I do not know.  If you are the high bidder, its your responsibility to know the rules and regulations of your home state or country as well as what you can and can't do with the car once you acquire it.  Included with the sale of the car will be the Florida Certificate of Destruction and a bill of sale from me.  That is all.

The bad:The car was involved in an accident in its past life.  It was repaired fairly, but not perfectly.  The front bumper is not original, fog lights are missing.  PDC sensors are not connected.  Plastic panels under & around the front end were not replaced.  Paint work is fair, some imperfections, but for the most part you have to be looking for them or know what you're looking for.  Dent below drivers side tail light.  Drivers door window regulator is not working.  Aftermarket wheels, painted calipers.  Star in windshield.

The good:Newer, lower mileage engine and gearbox.  Fresh oil change with Liqui Moly 10w60.  Some brittle vacuum hoses were replaced while the new engine was being installed.  Power steering hose replaced.  Car runs, drives great.  No check engine light on.  Brand new front rotors and pads (less than 300 miles).  Interior is in very good condition.  No major interior issues, no major rips, tears, odors, stains, etc.  Aftermarket wheels have good tires.

Please ask as many questions as possible.  I have perfect feedback and want to keep it that way.  I tried to give you an honest description.  If you have any other questions, just let me know.  High bidder is buying the car as-is.  No warranties or guarantees.

BMW X7 rumored to get BMW's best interior, 130,000-euro price

Tue, Mar 24 2015

Spanish outlet Motor.es has some info on the coming BMW X7, the sport activity vehicle that will take the Munich brand to the penultimate SUV segment. Unnamed sources said BMW has been working on both the X7 and the future Rolls-Royce all-terrain vehicle for almost two years, and that in BMW guise it will ride on the CLAR (CLuster ARchitecture) platform that will make an appearance later this year under the new 7 Series. The Rolls-Royce, on the other hand, will get its own aluminum spaceframe. The two vehicles will share components, though, which are now being tested. Running gear and engines will borrow from the X5 and X6 tool chests, with rear- and all-wheel-drive configurations mooted and engines ranging from the TwinPower 3.0-liter six-cylinder to an uprated version of the 6.0-liter V12 in the 760iL. The 4.4-liter V8 is mentioned as the middle child and perhaps the base for an X7 M, should one be made. A plug-in hybrid offering could swipe the unit from the X5 xDrive40e PHEV, good for 55MPGe in that current application. The interior, we're told, will be the nicest seen on any BMW, said to surpass that of the new 7 Series. We'll have to wait two years to find out how close all of that is to the mark, but the tidbit that might need some salt sprinkled on it right now is the predicted price: Motor.es says 130,000 euros in Europe, to start. That's not the first time a sky-high price has been predicted, but a leap that far beyond the six-figure mark would readjust all of our expectations for the vehicle when an X5 cost 53,700 euros in France and an X6 costs 70,900 euros. Other outlets predict US pricing to start from around $60,000; the X5 costs $53,900 here, the X6 is $59,600.

BMW Vision Future Luxury arrives in Beijing dressed to the nines

Sat, 19 Apr 2014

Almost two weeks ago, we reported that BMW may be bringing a concept to the 2014 Beijing Motor Show that could herald a flagship 9 Series model that would be better suited to do battle with the tip-top of the Mercedes-Benz S-Class range than the current 7 Series. Well, here it is. This is the Vision Future Luxury Concept, and straight away, it looks suited to the role of ultra-luxury flagship.
In our original story, we reported that the Beijing concept would wear styling similar to the Pininfarina Gran Lusso Coupe that was shown in Villa d'Este nearly a year ago. Unlike that car, the Vision Future Luxury sports four doors, although its roofline plunges aggressively enough for it to be considered a four-door coupe. That doesn't mean it will compromise on rear-seat space, however. Judging by the length of the rear doors alone, this is a very large vehicle.
Its styling, though, is, as we reported, quite familiar. We can see the evolution of the Concours' concept's styling, with a narrower grille that still leads up into the hood. The thin headlights use BMW's Laserlight technology while retaining a shape similar to the Gran Lusso, and the lower intake is dominated by a carbon-fiber air deflector on both ends. BMW's Air Breather system can be found behind the front wheels, adding an accent along the lower portion of the doors. In back, organic LED lighting is used for the super-slim taillights.

BMW is the US auto industry's leading exporter

Fri, 18 Jul 2014

Which automaker do you think ships the most cars out of North America, one of the Detroit Three or perhaps one of the Japanese automakers? Nope. It turns out the BMW's Spartanburg, SC, factory is the biggest automotive exporter from the continent in the United States. According to a recent profile by Bloomberg looking at the plant's 20th anniversary, Bimmer's southern ops sends out more vehicles than all of Michigan combined.
When the Spartanburg factory opened up in 1994, its success was hardly assured, largely because of South Carolina's relatively small economy at the time. However, BMW picked the site because of its proximity to East Coast shipping that made it easier to move engines and transmission in from Germany and export vehicles back to Europe, according to Bloomberg. The Bavarians clearly made the right choice.
Today, the plant has developed into an absolute powerhouse. The factory currently assembles the X3, X4, X5 and X6 and exports about 70 percent of the vehicles built there. Things are only getting better. BMW is investing $1 billion through 2016 to boost annual production from the current 300,000 units up to 450,000 and to build a new flagship crossover called X7. The expansion also adds a further 800 jobs there to take total employment up to about 8,800. Including the latest financing, BMW has put over $7.3 billion into the factory since it opened, notes Bloomberg.
