Eden Prairie, Minnesota, United States
|
Loaded with every feature available on the E53-M62 BMW X.5 4.4i for 2003 including front and rear heated leather seats - with the exception of the towing package. This SUV is being sold as is - it has no known wreck history but needs repairs. It was drivable until two weeks ago (May 2014) when the front axel broke. Towed to BMW dealer who removed front axel. To be drivable front axel needs to be replaced - cost between $500 - 1200 dep upon aftermarket axel or OEM. Front driver window motor needs to be replaced with door switch. BMW also recommended the following repairs but said it is drivable without: Both rear upper control arms due for replacement. LR differential out put shaft seal is leaking very slightly. Power steering suction hose leaking at resevoir.Thrust bindings are tearing. Crankcase vent sys failed a year ago. Auxillary fan switch leaking.Valve cover leaking oil slightly.There are several dents in the right rear passenger door where kid on bike ran into car when parked.Two tears in privacy tint.Car has new tires as of May 2014 - few radio and dash led pixels burned out. Otherwise, until the axel broke the car drove wonderfully. It needs a good detail as we used it for gardening. If you have the knowledge to do the repairs yourself this car could be in perfect condition for around $1800 to $2500 in parts (rough estimate). With a good interior detail and a buff and shine it is one of the best looking cars on the road. Recently had brakes replaced, new battery, new self-leveling sys on rear, new driver door lock and mechanism, new rear lift hatch new All Season tires in April 2014. You can come by and see car, start it and hear engine run but until axel replaced it will not drive. Purchaser will need to arrange to have car towed or shipped within ten days of purchase. We are willing to assist in coordination of tow or ship but buyer pays 100% of all cost. Have bmw printout of repair needs for serious buyer. All repair items from BMW dealer listed above. Again the car is offered as is. |

BMW Vision Future Luxury arrives in Beijing dressed to the nines
Sat, 19 Apr 2014Almost two weeks ago, we reported that BMW may be bringing a concept to the 2014 Beijing Motor Show that could herald a flagship 9 Series model that would be better suited to do battle with the tip-top of the Mercedes-Benz S-Class range than the current 7 Series. Well, here it is. This is the Vision Future Luxury Concept, and straight away, it looks suited to the role of ultra-luxury flagship.
In our original story, we reported that the Beijing concept would wear styling similar to the Pininfarina Gran Lusso Coupe that was shown in Villa d'Este nearly a year ago. Unlike that car, the Vision Future Luxury sports four doors, although its roofline plunges aggressively enough for it to be considered a four-door coupe. That doesn't mean it will compromise on rear-seat space, however. Judging by the length of the rear doors alone, this is a very large vehicle.
Its styling, though, is, as we reported, quite familiar. We can see the evolution of the Concours' concept's styling, with a narrower grille that still leads up into the hood. The thin headlights use BMW's Laserlight technology while retaining a shape similar to the Gran Lusso, and the lower intake is dominated by a carbon-fiber air deflector on both ends. BMW's Air Breather system can be found behind the front wheels, adding an accent along the lower portion of the doors. In back, organic LED lighting is used for the super-slim taillights.
BMW brings first diesel 7 Series to US with $82,500* 740Ld xDrive
Fri, 24 Jan 2014After almost 40 years on the market, there are probably few things the BMW 7 Series hasn't offered, but when it comes to the US market, one of those things just happens to be a diesel engine. That is all about to change, however, as BMW announced that it will unveil the 2014 740Ld xDrive at the Chicago Auto Show before sales commence later in the spring.
Offered only on long-wheelbase models with standard all-wheel drive, the new diesel 7 is powered by BMW's 3.0-liter inline-six producing 255 horsepower and a stout 413 pound-feet of torque peaking between 1,500 and 3,000 rpm. While BMW has yet to release any type of fuel economy figures, it did say that its diesel technology is usually good for an improvement of 25 to 30 percent over the gas models - just for fun, that means that the 740 Ld xDrive could get as much as 24.7 miles per gallon in the city and 36.4 mpg on the highway, but that's just doing the math and there is nothing official behind those numbers. Acceleration will take a little longer than in the 740Li xDrive (shown above) with BMW stating 6.1 seconds from 0-60 compared to 5.4 seconds for the gas model.
Another small increase over the gas version will be in price, with the 740Ld xDrive getting a starting MSRP of $82,500 (*not including $925 for destination), which is just a $1,500 bump over the 740Li xDrive. For comparison, the Audi A8L TDI starts at $78,800, while the previous-gen Mercedes S350 Bluetec was priced at $93,000. Scroll down for more info on the new diesel-powered 7 Series, and stay tuned to our live coverage from Chicago in a couple weeks as we'll have live images and hopefully more info.
BMW and Mini shuffle NA management, McDowell to retire
Wed, 04 Dec 2013BMW and Mini recently shuffled top personnel in their design departments, and now BMW of North America will reorganize its management to improve customer relations. Peter Miles (pictured), currently the executive vice president of operations, will take a newly created position, vice president of sales channel development and customer relations, while Jim McDowell, vice president of Mini of the Americas, will retire.
Chris Koenders, president of BMW Group Netherlands, will move take Miles' spot as executive vice president of operations. David Duncan, western region vice president, will take McDowell's job as vice president of Mini of the Americas. Finishing off the management switcharoo is Peter Witt, who will move from his current position as Managing Director of BMW Sweden to take Duncan's job as western region vice president.
"We are intensifying our customer-driven focus and these changes will influence the entire organization to continue improving all phases of the customer journey from prospect to purchase and throughout the ownership cycle," says Ludwig Willisch, president and CEO of BMW NA.
