You are looking at an ultra rare 2008 BMW B7 Alpina which is a very rare 500hp / 516 ft-tq (186mph limited) supercharged version of the 7-series. Prodigious power, superb handling and brakes, tasteful body styling kit, supportive seats, limited production means maximum exclusivity. It's probably the closest thing to an M7 if they made one. The car also has a body kit, wheels, and interior unique to the Alpina. This car has 71,XXX miles and garage kept in the Austin,TX area. It has been dealer maintained and all records can be pulled as well. Highlights of the recent maintenance include all (4) Michelin tires are less than a year old, a brand new transmission straight from the Alpina factory in Germany is less than a year old as well, and finally the factory supercharger has also been replaced with a brand new one. Those are just the highlights, many other routine maintenence items have been replaced as well.  Transmission was diagnosed with a faulty solenoid so they replaced the whole thing with a new unit from Alpina, the supercharger developed a small leak so that was also replaced with a brand new unit from Alpina. This is a perfect running luxury supercar with some major items replaced with brand new ones. This is a bargain for such an exclusive supercar which had an original msrp of $115,000!! This is the best example that has been DEALER MAINTAINED and has had very expensive drivetrain components replaced that will add thousands of joyful miles to this ultimate driving machine! I guarantee you will be the only  one you and other drivers see in an ALPINA for your daily commute. Good luck with bidding on this ultra exclusive, ultra rare, and blistering fast supercar.

Cafe racer motorbikes storm Japan

Fri, 22 Nov 2013

Japan may be best known, at least among motorcycle enthusiasts, for its sport bikes. But as we found at the Tokyo Motor Show this year, Japanese motorcycle manufacturers are capable of producing all kinds of motorbikes. And to our delight, that includes cafe racers.
Along with the myriad electric bikes, dirt bikes, crotch rockets and scooters, the halls of Tokyo's Big Site convention center this year were full of the retro-infused rides we love. Chief among them was the Bolt (shown above) which Yamaha exhibited alongside their various electric two-wheelers, sporting a delicious metallic blue paintjob, inverted handlebars and hanging mirrors, machined metal bits, blacked-out trim and saddle brown leatherwork.
Honda was also on hand with a new EX version of its '70s-style CB1100 retro roadster in sinister and low-key matte black. And this was our first chance to check out BMW Motorrad's new birthday present to its 90-year-old self, the R NineT, a model recently unveiled at the EICMA motorcycle show in Milan. But one of the most amusing retro rides we came across was the Honda Monkey Limited, a mini bike that makes the new 125cc Grom (which was displayed alongside it) look positively gigantic.

BMW 2 Series, X5 get their M Performance parts on

Mon, 02 Dec 2013

BMW models come in a number of flavors, from their standard guises to M Sport variants and M Performance models to full-on M muscle machines. But if you want to pick and choose the degree to which you want your Bimmer upgraded along the path to M, BMW automaker offers its M Performance Parts line. The Bavarian automaker already offers these performance and stylistic add-ons for a number of models, and has now released new kits for both the 2 Series Coupe and the latest X5 crossover.
The catalog for the 2 Series includes an available lowered suspension kit, upgraded brakes, new alloys, carbon aero kit and interior trim enhancements. There's also a power kit available for the 220d model that squeezes out an extra 16 horsepower for a total of 200, and a limited-slip differential and exhaust silencer for the M235i.
Upgrades to the X5 crossover, meanwhile, also include a carbon aero kit and interior trim package. The X5 xDrive35i model also gets a power kit boosting output by 20 ponies to 326 hp and an exhaust silencer. Scope out the details in the pair of press releases below and the pair of high-resolution image galleries top and bottom.

X1, 3 Series power BMW back into global luxury autos sales lead

Thu, 14 Mar 2013

BMW managed to eke ahead of Audi for the global luxury sales crown in February. According to Bloomberg, BMW saw deliveries swell by 7 percent in February, besting the 3.2 percent jump enjoyed by Audi and giving BMW a 407-unit delivery lead over its rival last month. Mercedes-Benz, meanwhile, continued to falter, with the brand selling some 37,229 fewer machines than BMW, whose factories are running at full capacity to keep up with demand. Models like the X1 (shown above) enjoyed a sales increase of 40 percent in February while the company's bread-and-butter 3 Series jumped by 26 percent.
Mercedes-Benz hopes to stem its continued market share loss with the addition of the entry-level CLA sedan to its portfolio in April. The company is set to roll out an updated version of its cash-cow E-Class at the same time, and a new-generation S-Class will follow along shortly thereafter. Meanwhile, the company is increasing production to meet demand for its A and B-Class models.
