When
it comes to finding a great sport sedan, the automotive market is like a
massive haystack. With this truth, it is
very difficult to find a needle in the mass of look-alikes, wannabes, and
distractions. So, with so many options
is it even worth finding the one real golden needle among all the strands of
hay? Of course! Moreover, fortunately for you, your search
through the stack has finally paid off in finding that needle! Your new Carbon Black Metallic 2008 BMW 550i
with Navigation, M Sport Package, Comfort Access System, Rear Sunshades, Active
Steering, Active Cruise Control, Lane Departure Warning, Logic 7 Sound, IR
camera, and Satellite Radio is truly a rare gem. Its vast array of unique options set it apart
from not only other brands on the road, but even from its other 550i
brethren. From its rare black headliner
to its enviable active cruise control, this is just the car to separate you
from other cars on the road and their drivers.
You will be a standout not just because of your beautiful car, but also
because of how much you saved buying wholesale.
Let us see just how spectacular your new 550i is!
EXTERIOR:
Your 550i looks great clothed in CARBON BLACK METALLIC paint. At a quick glance, the color looks like a
shimmering black, but with closer inspection, you can see gorgeous dark blue
undertones. Under the hood of your new
BMW, you will find the 550i's claim to fame: a 4.8L DOHC V8 engine with 360
horsepower and 360 lb-ft of torque. You
will love the sound of the roaring engine with each press of the gas
pedal. Despite all that ability, your
BMW still gets a remarkable 22 highway MPG!
As part of the M sport package, upgraded 19" M sport wheels are wrapped
in Bridgestone Potenza tires (in excellent shape) look great on the car.
INTERIOR:
The outside of your car is incredibly remarkable, but what about inside? The interior is outfitted in clean black
upholstery complemented by bamboo wood trim and rare black headliner. The 20-way power sport front multi-contour
bucket seats feel comfortable and and can be adjusted to fit you
perfectly. To ensure that everyone in
the vehicle will be comfortable, there is tri-zone automatic climate control
with auto air circulation and other great functions. One of the nicest features of the vehicle is
the BMW iDrive system with on-board computer.
With the built-in factory navigation system, you can easy get
turn-by-turn directions to just about any destination. Also housed in this unit are on-screen visual
controls for the climate, car options, and entertainment. The upgraded Logic 7 BMW stereo with graphic
equalizer includes AM/FM/Satellite radio stereo with CD player and changer and
MP3 capabilities sounds great through the ten speakers and two subwoofers. The Lane Departure Warning system is activated
with just the push of a button on your steering wheel. As you drive, the car will monitor your
driving and the steering wheel will vibrate to let you know if you begin to
drift from your lane. This is a great
safety feature, especially on longer trips.
You will love utilizing the Comfort Access System for keyless entry and
start. The car will detect the key in
your pocket or purse and allow you to enter the car and start it without ever
taking out the key!
In
addition, your BMW Night Vision provides a new dimension of optical perception
when driving at night. A thermal imaging
camera detects human beings, animals, and objects in front of the car before
they become visible to the human eye in the headlights. The image generated by the system is
transmitted to the central Control Display within the car presenting objects
detected with increasing brightness as a function of the heat detected by the
camera -- and therefore making human beings and animals particularly
conspicuous.
The thermal imaging camera covers a range of up to 300 metres or almost 1,000 feet ahead of the car. BMW Night Vision therefore offers the customer particular benefits when driving over land, down narrow lanes, through gateways leading into courtyards, and into dark underground garages, significantly enhancing driving safety at night. |

Electrified BMW X1 spotted testing
Tue, 09 Apr 2013So here's something interesting. This might look like an ordinary BMW X1, but take a closer glance - those stickers on the side read "hybrid test vehicle," and around back, there doesn't appear to be a tailpipe at all. But does this mean that BMW is working on a straight-up all-electric version of its smallest crossover? Let's hypothesize for a moment.
Just because we can't see a tailpipe in these photographs doesn't mean there isn't one somewhere under there. And while those hybrid stickers are an indication that there's some sort of electrification going on underhood, it could just be for a forthcoming gasoline-electric version of the X1. Lexus recently confirmed it would be bringing a small hybrid CUV to market that will compete in the X1's space, so perhaps BMW is working on another powertrain option to offer when its littlest crossover gets refreshed.
Also consider that Toyota collaborated with Tesla to bring back the RAV4 EV, which would sort of compete with the X1, so it also stands to reason that perhaps this is an early test mule for a larger all-electric vehicle in the upcoming, eco-minded BMW i range. Our spies seem pretty confident that the prototype seen here is indeed an all-out EV, but we just can't say with certainty without more evidence.
BMW's Quandt family in hot water over Merkel campaign contributions
Sun, 20 Oct 2013The mysterious and elusive Quandt family is in hot water again, nearly two years after its Nazi connections during World War II were exposed. The German family's patriarch, Herbert Quandt, nearly single-handedly saved BMW from being bought out by Daimler-Benz in 1959. Now, three living family members own nearly half of the German brand, and stand accused of buying votes with donations to the party of German Chancellor Angela Merkel, mere days ahead of a European Union vote that would cap vehicle emissions.
Merkel's conservative Christian Democratic Union accepted three donations, one from each shareholding member of the Quandt family.
Merkel's conservative Christian Democratic Union accepted three donations, one from each shareholding member of the Quandt family, totaling 690,000 euros ($935,000), on October 9. The CDU, for what it's worth, claim the donations weren't related to any political decisions and that the family have been donors for years. A Quandt family spokesperson, meanwhile, said that the family had been waiting for Germany's September 22 elections to pass before making a large contribution to the CDU.
2014 BMW 4 Series Coupe images leak out
Fri, 14 Jun 2013Because embargoes were apparently made to be broken, images of the 2014 BMW 4 Series coupe have leaked onto the Internet ahead of the car's official debut thanks to Car Design News' Facebook page. As you'll recall, the 4 Series is the replacement for the outgoing 3 Series coupe, its nomenclature falling in line with the rest of BMW's lineup, where coupes and convertibles will be set apart from their sedan counterparts by one number.
As we can see in the photos, the 4 Series takes a lot of its design cues from the 3 Series on which it is based, but there's a lot more in the way of attractive body sculpting, and this production model stays true to the original 4 Series Coupe Concept that we saw at the Detroit Auto Show earlier this year.
We don't have official details to divulge just yet, but we can discern from the photos that the range-topping coupe will be the 435i model, likely powered by BMW's turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-six from the 335i. There will no doubt be a 428i model with a 2.0-liter turbo-four underhood, and we expect BMW to offer its xDrive all-wheel-drive system on both models. Much like the 3 Series, a variety of trim levels will be on offer, including a top-spec M Sport trim that you can see painted in Estoril Blue here.
