2010 - Bmw X5 on 2040-cars
Buffalo Grove, Illinois, United States
Up for sale is my wife's 2010 BMW X5M. We are selling it to make room for her 2014 RR Supercharged Sport that is due to arrive in 2 weeks (we needed a third row). I did not like the offer they gave me on trade-in. I would love to keep it but we have 5 cars (I am also selling our 2006 Mini Cooper S with 20k miles). It is finished in beautiful Carbon Black Metallic (Dark blue with black flake) and has the Black Merino interior with black piano wood finishing. This is the best of both worlds. It is a true sports car (555 horsepower and 0-60 in 4.2 seconds) and a functional SUV with all wheel drive! This has the same engine as the new BMW M5. It is like having an all wheel drive awd BMW M5 that can fit 5 people and their gear!! It is perfect in all types of weather. This was $100,000 new! Why pay $20K more for a Cayenne Turbo!?!? We bought it as a BMW Certified Pre-owned vehicle from Motorwerks BMW in Minneapolis. We traded in her 2009 X5 4.8; what a big difference! There is a reason why the X5M is more $$ than a regular X5! BMW is very strict with their certification and this X5M passed with flying colors. It has the CPO warranty till 8/31/2015 or 100,000 miles which is fully transferable to the new owner. This is another 19 months of worry free warranty that is good at any BMW dealership and has roadside assistance! You can buy an additional extended warranty from BMW, I believe it is ~$1,800 for another year (8/2016). This is one of the most comfortable cars we have owned. We drove it from Illinois to Virginia and back. It made 18-20 mpg on the highway. The seats were amazing and ride quality was excellent! It currently has 48,700 miles. It is in amazing condition in and out. My wife is a physician and parks it in a heated garage at work and home. We have no children... yet, and we are non smokers. It is washed weekly and detailed every 3 months. Options: Cold weather package Premium sound package Power tailgate Comfort access Panoramic moonroof Lumbar support Voice command Satellite radio Real Time Traffic Driver Assistance package High gloss roof rails BMW assist with Bluetooth Privacy glass HUD Side/Rear cameras Front/Rear Heated Seats Heated Steering Wheel Navigation 6 Disk CD Changer with hard drive USB/AUX/ipod Audio inputs 4 zone climate control park distance sensors tire pressure monitor auto dimming mirrors power folding mirrors high beam assist rain sensing wipers Adaptive Xenon headlights Launch control- only available on the X5M ! I have all the service records, manuals, keys, rear cargo cover, carfax. See the attached Carfax Buyback Guarantee! The previous owner is a lawyer from Minneapolis and is also an auto enthusiast. He traded it on a new Alpina B7. The carfax shows an accident 11-2010. I confirmed this with Motorwerks BMW and the previous owner. It was due to icy conditions and the X5M slid into the car in front of it and scraped the left side of the front bumper. It was reported due to the other vehicle having a cracked bumper cover . The X5M only suffered scratches and nothing had to be replaced! It did have the front bumper repainted by the Motorwerks body shop and it matches 100%. It also comes with the BMW carpet floor mats and BMW all weather mats. I also have a custom weathertech rear cargo mat that goes with the car. It has the upgraded white LED headlight Halos (2012+ style) and M emblems on the side and front of the vehicle. No other modifications. At 42,000 miles it had new Bridgestone Run Flats put on. 90% tread left! At 43,000 miles it received new pads and rotors. 90 % life left! 50,000 mile service and oil/filter change performed last month. It needs nothing but a new owner. Remember, this is not a dealer auction car. This our personal vehicle with ALL the history records. It also comes with all the accessories, not a stripped down auction car! The certified warranty is $$$ !

VW could look outside its own ranks for next CEO
Fri, Feb 27 2015Companies have two options when coming up with succession plans – hire within, or go outside its ranks. Either choice comes with advantages and disadvantages, to be sure. Hiring within means generally getting someone familiar with the company and its culture and traditions, while going outside is ideal if you're looking to shake things up and bring in fresh ideas. It's unclear which avenue the Volkswagen Group will go down when it comes time to replace its head man, Herr Professor Doctor Doctor Herr Martin Winterkorn, but he isn't ruling out a trip outside of Wolfsburg. Winterkorn has already given the reins of the VW brand to former BMW board member Herbert Diess, while Andreas Renschler, a former Daimler board member, is heading up VW's truck group. Now, Winterkorn has made some statements to a German weekly that indicate the most important thing about his successor isn't necessarily his (or her, though no women appear to be on the short-list) previous employer, Motoring.com.au is reporting, so much as his qualities as a leader and an engineering background. "A Volkswagen boss has to have a big affinity to our products. He needs to be close to customers and he needs to have a relationship with dealers," Winterkorn told Stern. "Like always, it depends on the personality and it also helps if the candidate is an engineer." Motoring throws out a couple of potential candidates from within, including Porsche boss Mathias Muller, Audi Chairman Rupert Stadler and engineering guru Ulrich Hackenberg, in addition to both Diess and Renschler. And while each candidate has a lot of potential, the only thing that's guaranteed right now is what Winterkorn has already said: "The decision about who will succeed me is not an easy one for the supervisory board."
EPA: Four 2014 Mini Cooper models need to drop mpg numbers
Wed, Oct 22 2014After the huge problems that Hyundai/Kia experienced with its mislabeled fuel economy labels, you'd think that any time an automaker has to adjust its mpg numbers, heralds would be shouting from the rooftops. But, after Ford admitted to three big mistakes with its numbers for the 2013 C-Max Hybrid and Mercedes-Benz had to lower the fuel economy rating for the C-Class, we understand if those heralds are a bit tired by now. The models affected include the 3-door and the 3-door S. Still, today's news is that BMW has to lower the fuel efficiency numbers for four versions of the 2014 Mini Cooper thanks to an audit conducted by the EPA and then some joint re-testing. The models affected include the 3-door with the 1.5-liter engine and the 3-door S with its 2.0-liter powerplant, with both manual and semi-automatic transmissions. As with the Benzes, the rating changes are not big ones, around one or two miles per gallon. The big exception is the manual S 3-door's highway number, which lost four mpg from 38 to 34. You can see all the numbers, new and old, in the press release below, but the EPA isn't saying what caused the problem this time. The Agency's new test procedures can't come fast enough. It should be noted that the 2015 Mini Cooper was recently delayed a bit because of the extra time it took to get the EPA numbers right. There's no confirmation that these two items are connected, but we would not be surprised to hear they were. EPA Requiring BMW to Correct Fuel Economy Labels for Four Mini Cooper Vehicles Washington - The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is revising estimates for four 2014 BMW Mini Cooper vehicles to ensure consumers are given accurate fuel economy values. The EPA performed a fuel economy audit on the BMW Mini Cooper and obtained values that differed from those BMW submitted to EPA for certification. With EPA oversight, BMW conducted new emissions and fuel economy testing, and EPA conducted its own testing at its National Vehicle and Fuel Emissions Laboratory in Ann Arbor, Michigan. As a result of this subsequent testing, EPA is requiring BMW to relabel four of its 2014 Mini Cooper models with lower fuel economy values. The specific changes to fuel economy stickers are listed in the table below.
BMW tests M Lap Timer App with M4 Coupe at Brands Hatch
Fri, 21 Mar 2014The 2015 BMW M4 looks to include all the necessary ingredients to offer dynamite driving experience. It's an M car after all. But in today's constantly connected world, the experience of hurtling a car around a track isn't always enough.
We want data, and while there are some solid telemetry apps available for smartphones (notably Harry's GPS LapTimer), manufacturers have been a bit slower to develop their own dedicated mobile telemetry trackers for their performance cars. With the new M4, though, BMW is taking the plunge, allowing drivers to track their lap progress through a new app, creatively called the M Lap Timer.
To show off the program, BMW has recruited touring car racer Andy Priaulx to perform a fast lap in an M4 at the UK's Brands Hatch circuit. The accompanying video doesn't do much to show off the app in action. Rather, it give us a stylized look at the metrics as Priaulx hustles BMW's hottest 4 Series coupe around the circuit.
