This is being relisted. I could not find the title last auction. I now have title in hand, California smog check past with flying colors, and registration go through 2014.

               Up for sale is our 2001 BMW X5 Sport with Navigation. A bit of background. We have owned this SUV about 9 years. My wife drove it until we had our second child and needed something bigger. This is fully loaded with low miles. We serviced regularly and used Mobil 1 synthetic. Within the last year I changed the valve cover gaskets which commonly leak on the X5 and are a pain to change. Also, replaced the plugs with the OEM set from NGK, 2 coils. This is all within 500 miles.  

At 95K miles, transmission rebuilt which is a huge concern with x5s. This is a full rebuild and shifts and runs like new. Within last few 2 years replaced, radiator, water pump, and alternator, valve cover gaskets, spark plugs, coils, fuel filter, wiper blades, oil (has < 200 miles on it),  3 new window regulators (except drivers door).

The paint is good and there are no dents, dings or scratches anywhere. The SUV has never been in an accident and comes with a clean car fax. The hood and the roof had the clear coat starting to lift/cloud. We had the hood painted by a bumper repair place about 1 year ago. They did not paint the roof since you can not see it unless you are looking from above. Outside of the roof, the paint is in very good shape.

Interior is excellent with exception of the driver seat. Its fine but leather is cracked on the edge and lower seat back. It was sitting outdoors for some time. Reupholstering would cost about $250 from quotes I received.

This truck has been sitting in our driveway for about 1 year collecting dust. We have not had time to list it as I travel and my wife doesnt like to show it alone. Time to get rid of it.

The only thing that needs to be repaired is the drivers window. It operates fine but if lowered all the way, it gets stuck and needs to be wedged to get to go up. Its not the window motor. It’s a bushing that holds the glass to the regulator. I replaced the same thing on the pass. door a while back. Very easy fix and a DIY job. Parts ~$25. I just don’t have time to take care of it.

 

** NOTE THE WHEELS IN THE PICTURE WERE SOLD. THEY COME WITH THE STOCK 19" WHEELS. SEE PICS FOR CURRENT WHEELS. ALSO AC SCHNITZER PACKAGE ON FRONT INSTALLED. THE REAR I REMOVED

BMW-Toyota partnership to spawn hybrid supercar

Wed, 06 Nov 2013

BMW and Toyota inked a partnership some time ago to develop green technology, and while we were excited by the idea of a reborn Supra with BMW's carbon fiber reinforced plastic slashing the curb weight or an ultra-efficient, hybridized 1 Series, the joint efforts have been rather limited. That's set to change, though, according to a report from Australia.
Motoring reports that the partners have come to terms on a sports car. And not just any sports car, but a lightweight, hybridized model, with a six-figure price tag. Lending a bit of street cred to that idea is the site's claim that Toyota is currently carrying out durability testing on the BMW i8. According to the site, the new model will slot into the spot left by the Lexus LFA, although based on the language used, it's unclear if this is the Tokyo-bound vehicle we mentioned several months ago.
Details on this potential car are limited, although Motoring claims it will use a Toyota hybrid system mated up to a BMW gas engine - likely the 4.4-liter, twin-turbo V8 found in the M5 and M6. That sounds pretty amazing to us, but we'd still advise taking this with a grain of salt. What would you like to see out of a joint-venture supercar from Toyota and BMW? Let us know in Comments, and have your say on the prospects of a hybridized, twin-turbocharged V8.

Are you a BMW M4 GTS track car in disguise?

Wed, 10 Sep 2014

BMW is always happy to extract a little bit more gumption out of its M cars, just look at the latest 30th anniversary M5 or even the earlier CSL variants of the M3 for proof. Now, It looks like we might be getting the first glimpse of an even hotter M4, and it's wearing very interesting livery.
Our spies recently shot this M4 that could preview a future GTS version. It's all done up in MotoGP decals, but that might just be a ruse. This car sports a camouflaged lower air dam and rear wing, but those parts don't appear to be from an actual series safety car. The chin spoiler seems larger, and the rear wing is completely different. You can also spot an obvious Recaro logo on the driver's seat in one of the photos. Plus, the BMW emblem is removed at the back.
The disguised changes and odd choice of decals make this prototype incredibly weird. A BMW exec said at the beginning of the year that there were "no plans whatsoever to make a lighter, harder version just yet," of the M3 or M4, despite earlier rumors to the contrary. Check out the gallery to see what you think this is.

2015 BMW M4 Coupe

Mon, 12 May 2014

Launched out of the seat by a huge, unexpected dip in the road, yet still held largely in place by the smooth webbing of my safety belt, I clench my teeth waiting to come back to earth. A tenth of a second later, the M4 Coupe touches down and my body is slammed into the leather seat cushion. All of the air is forced out of my lungs upon landing, but the BMW's chassis, suspension and steering appear unfazed. Pleasantly surprised, I mash the accelerator to the floor in giddy pursuit of the car in front of me - an absolutely identical 2015 BMW M4 coupe.
A cavorting game of cat-and-mouse on a desolate twisty canyon in southern Portugal is an excellent way to explore the real-world driving dynamics and performance of BMW's all-new M4 Coupe. But to truly push it to the limit - without having to worry about oversize depressions in the asphalt - requires a dedicated racetrack. Graciously, my hosts have rented the famed Autódromo Internacional do Algarve racetrack, or Portimão circuit, for an afternoon of automotive debauchery.
It's hard to believe this passes for work.
