1998 e39 540i 6spd with 121,000 miles. The car is in excellent condition. It drives like a BMW should. The interior is super clean. The paint is in great shape, but please see ALL of the pictures. I have taken care to represent this car as honestly as possible. It is not perfect, but it is REALLY NICE. I have recently had the bumpers, left front fender and trunk lid repaired and repainted as they had deep scratches and knicks in them, but it was all parking lot and street parking dings. A solid, great looking car with the included 19" wheels (THERE ARE 5 OF THEM, ONE EXTRA THAT IS BRAND NEW) and it also has a sent of winter tires included. Both sets of tires have lots of life left.
Factory options:
- aspen silver exterior. Gray leather interior
- sport seats
- heated seats
- non-folding rear seats
- sunroof
- remote locking/trunk
- heated steering wheel
- dual zone climate control
- dsp factory stereo
- the usual stuff for a 540. Power steering wheel adjustment, memory seat, windows, etc.
My adds:
- SSR comps 19x9 all around. Conti sport contacts. 255/35/19. Full set includes a band new wheel with brand new Pilot Sport Tire in 245 size. A couple of the wheels have minor dings in them.
- winter sport dunlops on oem staggered wheels with matching spare on factory issued all season tire. The paint is flaking on these wheels, but tread on tires is good.
- iPhone/iPod hookup (specUSA) - does not work perfectly with latest iPhone, but it does play music
- stealth one integrated Valentine 1 Radar detector hookup to dash display (see pictures of dash showing this and wire hanging from behind rearview mirror)
- short shifter
- 2000 M5 hid headlights.
- all new cooling system in 2008
- all dash displays work, only one line of missing pixels on climate control
- subtle tint
- always stored indoors, always premium gas
- no accidents, recent repairs on dings and dents from reputable Great Neck auto body shop
- just replaced a few cracked climate control buttons.
This car is currently registered and insured and it has Michigan plates, but has been in NY for the last 10 years and has always been garaged except for the last couple of months after I replaced it with an SUV for my growing family. I have the title in hand.

Alpina D3 may be coming to Frankfurt with 350 hp, AWD
Wed, 14 Aug 2013Rumors are swirling that Alpina, the tuning house that specializes in all things BMW, will followup its Geneva debut of the B3 Bi-Turbo with an oil-burning variant slated for debut at September's Frankfurt Motor Show. The news comes from Auto Zeitung, which reports that the second-generation D3 will be based off the Europe-only 335d.
This is a departure from the last D3, which had the four-cylinder turbo-diesel from the BMW 123d in a 3 Series body. The new model is expected to use a 3.0-liter, twin-turbocharged inline-six, which will generate 350 horsepower and 516 pound-feet of torque. That should scoot it to 62 miles per hour in under five seconds (likely while towing a tree stump). Both rear- and all-wheel drive should be available on the D3, and we imagine the thrill of this much power channeled through just the two rear wheels to be akin to skydiving sans parachute.
For our European friends that want an Alpina D3, but don't need more torque than any American full-size pickup, there may be plans to offer a four-cylinder variant that still delivers Alpina performance without a compromise in economy. We'll have more on the Alpina D3 when it debuts at the 2013 Frankfurt Motor Show.
Watch the BMW i8 get wrung out on the Ring
Thu, 24 Apr 2014Been wondering where the heck the reviews of the all-new, plug-in-hybrid BMW i8 have been? After all, the car isn't exactly new, having debuted in concept form way back in September of 2009. In August of last year, we even tested a prototype of the new supercar. Despite that, though, we still haven't gotten a crack at the actual vehicle that will be sold to the public.
Well, we're happy to tell you that we're currently testing the i8 and will have a proper review for you soon. If, however, you're just aching for some coverage of the low-slung plug-in, we have a short video of it in action around Germany's famed Nürburgring.
Despite it's three-cylinder, turbocharged gas engine, the i8 sounds pretty angry as it laps the Ring. That is, until it has a little bit of a breakdown. According to the guys that caught the car on video, it appeared the i8 had a minor brake issue, and was parked on the side of the track for a good 15 minutes, with the driver pumping the brakes. We should probably just take this as proof, then, that manufacturers are actually using the Ring for testing, and not just messing about.
Tier 1 suppliers call GM the worst OEM to work with
Mon, 12 May 2014Among automakers with a big US presence, General Motors is the worst to work for, according to a new survey from Tier 1 automotive suppliers, conducted by Planning Perspectives, Inc.
The Detroit-based manufacturer, which has been under fire following the ignition switch recall and its accompanying scandal, finished behind six other automakers with big US manufacturing operations. Suppliers had issues with trust and communications, as well as intellectual property protection. GM was also the least likely to allow suppliers to raise their prices in the face of unexpected increases in material cost, all of which contributed to 55 percent of suppliers saying their relationship with GM was "poor to very poor."
GM's cross-town competitors didn't fare much better. Chrysler finished in fifth place, ahead of GM and behind Dearborn-based Ford, which was passed for third place this year by Nissan. Toyota took the top marks, while Honda captured second place.
