2008 Bmw 535xi All Wheel Drive Sedan on 2040-cars
Greenville, South Carolina, United States

This is my personal car (since 8/11). I am selling it because I'm going to get a new BMW. I have all the service records since I bought it and can send you a digitized version to inspect. The photos include pictures of several paint chips on the hood. The wheels look bad to me. I'm going to have them refurbished. The Goodyear Eagle RS-A tires shown have the most wear. Two of the tires are at 5000 and 200 miles respectively and are not shown. One of my favorite things about this car is the seats that are adjustable 14 ways. They are fabulous! Most BMW's don't have them. I have never damaged the car and it appears to me that it has never been damaged. I assume someone looking at this knows plenty about the all-wheel drive. This is the first car I've had with it and I love the added security on wet roads. It also has a monstrous amount of low-end torque and the all wheel drive helps a lot to prevent tire squeal with rapid acceleration. I don't smoke and nobody has smoked in the car since I've owned it. I drive this car to and from work (about 8 miles) every day. The rest of the driving is a combo of around town or travel to my second home. It has been garaged since I bought it. I bought this when it was still under warranty so I tried to find everything I could for BMW to repair. About all I came up with was a recall on fuel injectors. I know it's hard to believe but I can average 28 mpg going 70 mph on the interstate! I can always answer the phone after work (say 5:30 pm EST or so) but may not be able to answer promptly during work. I can usually check emails several times a day. Thanks for your interest in my car!

BMW adds new entry-level 320i model, priced from $33,445*
Mon, 14 Jan 2013Fans of the new BMW 3 Series here in the US have likely been waiting for one of two models to arrive: the new M3 or the diesel-powered 335d. Well... keep waiting just a little bit longer. Here at the Detroit Auto Show, BMW is showing off the new entry-level 320i that will join the 3 Series lineup this spring, and rather than bringing added performance or efficiency, this car is boasting affordability above all. The 320i has been on sale in other markets since the current-generation 3 Series was introduced, but it goes on sale in the US with a starting price of $33,445 (*)including $895 for destination, which is $3,405 less than the current starting price of BMW's well-liked sedan.
In other countries, the 320i uses either a 1.5- or a 2.0-liter inline-four (both turbocharged), and the US version of the car will be getting the latter engine producing 180 horsepower and 200 pound-feet of torque. For comparison, the current 328i, which uses this same engine, produces 240 hp and 255 lb-ft of torque. As expected, performance of the 320i will suffer with BMW estimating a 0-60 mile-per-hour time of 7.1 seconds, but it still has the same 130 mph top speed as the 328i. Oddly enough, despite the lower output, BMW's expected fuel economy for the 320i equipped with rear-wheel-drive and the eight-speed automatic transmission actually matches that of the current 328i with 23 miles per gallon city and 33 mpg highway, and those numbers are actually lower than the 328i with the manual gearbox.
It sounds like most of the usual 3 Series options will be available on the budget-minded 320i, including the choice of xDrive all-wheel drive, BMW Assist and numerous packages including a Sport pack and Premium pack. For a lot more information on the 320i, most of it general information on the F30 3 Series, scroll down for BMW's press release.
Looking back at 84 years of BMW roadsters
Tue, 01 Oct 2013Today BMW is a top player in the luxury vehicle market, but it wasn't always so. With origins as an airplane engine builder early in the 20th Century, it broke into the automotive industry when it bought Automobilwerk Eisenach in 1928. That German manufacturer was licensed to build the Austin Seven under the name Dixi DA-1, which could be had in a roadster body style. In 1929, BMW dropped the Dixi name, and by 1936, it was building a car it designed in-house, the 326 sedan. That was followed by the company's first roadster of its own design, the swoopy two-door 327 of 1937.
XCAR picks up there, and gives a history of BMW's iconic roadsters starting with the 327, ending with today's Z4, and covering everything in between - including the beautiful post-war 507 of 1957 and the funky, plastic-bodied 1989 Z1.
The video, which we've included below, is a good history lesson and a great chance to see a bunch of classic BMWs, spanning 84 years, all driven back to back within the safe confines of a racetrack. When you have a spare 20 minutes, go ahead and take some time to watch it.
Six luxury-car features I'm ashamed to admit I love
Thu, 16 Oct 2014A hot compress felt wonderful on my sore back. The methodical kneading of my shoulder blades loosened the knots that formed over several hours of driving. The Swedish-style pulses firing into my lumbar region released more tension.
I wasn't getting a much-needed massage following a recent road trip. I was getting it during the road trip.
I grew up riding in the back seat of a 1976 Chevy Nova. But once you use these lux features, it's easy to go soft.
