Im selling my 1997 BMW 328is with 142,000 miles. Its 5 speed manual and runs, drives, and shifts great. The car has zero rust top or bottom. The underside is in unbelievable condition. The paint is glossy but has a couple small blemishes. There is a wave in the drivers door but usually only noticable when the car is freshly washed. It has a small powering steering leak but it has been getting less and less as I have been adding lucas power steering fluid. The CEL is on from one of the cats being defective but it passed inspection in November 2012 even with it faulty. It is lowered with Raceland coilovers with camber adjustable pillow ball strut plates. The wheels are 17" black E36 M3 DSII wheels and are staggered, 7.5" front and 8.5" rear. The tires a michelin pilots are have decent tread. The front wheels have a 12mm spacer and extended wheel bolts. The interior is in very nice condition with only slight wear on the drivers side left seat bolster. No sun damage, rips or tears of any kind. I would consider trading for a 99 up silverado, f250 or suburban. Please call or text me at 607-425-8830 if interested. The title was just issued last week so I should have it in the mail by the end of next week. Thanks for the interest and have a great day!

Im selling my 1997 BMW 328is with 142,000 miles. Its 5 speed manual and runs, drives, and shifts great. Im going to do my best to describe everything I can, in as much detail as possible so there are no suprises for the winning bidder. The car has zero rust top or bottom. The underside is in unbelievable condition. The paint is glossy but has a couple small blemishes. There is a wave in the drivers door but usually only noticable when the car is freshly washed. It has a small powering steering leak but it has been getting less and less as I have been adding lucas power steering fluid. The CEL is on from one of the cats being defective but it passed inspection in November 2012 even with it faulty. The thermostat is stuck open so when its really cold outside the operating temp is a little below optimum but not a big deal. The hood cable is strectched. To pop the hood I have been simply popping out the drivers side corner light and pulling the cable that way. It is lowered with Raceland coilovers with camber adjustable pillow ball strut plates.

2013 Dinan S3 BMW 550i
Thu, 30 May 2013Steve Dinan has been enhancing BMW models since 1979. But don't throw his company into the ring with the dozen or so other tuners who tweak, tinker and piggyback upgrades on the famed German marque. Dinan is a tuner, but it's also an engineering firm that writes its own software, builds its own parts and then backs everything it does with a factory-grade warranty. That sort of fastidiousness comes at a price, but most of its customers - including the powerhouse of BMW Motorsport - rely on Dinan to help them come out on top.
In stock form, BMW's 550i is a formidable four-door with a twin-turbocharged 4.4-liter V8 rated at 400 horsepower and 450 pound-feet of torque. While those figures allow it to run with quick company (0-60 in 5.0 seconds, according to the automaker), Dinan puts the sedan's kettle on full boil with its S3 package. Starting with the engine, the performance engineering firm bolts on larger turbochargers, air-to-water intercoolers, a trick strut tower brace cold air intake, a quad-pipe free flow exhaust and its own engine management software. Pump in some premium fuel, and the result is 542 horsepower and 587 pound-feet of torque. Power is sent through the stock eight-speed automatic to a limited slip rear differential (Dinan will upgrade xDrive all-wheel drive models, too).
The Dinan S3 also features and extensive suspension upgrade that includes new front camber arms and low compliance rear control arms (engineered to reduce understeer and improve turn-in). The stock dampers are retained, but new bump stops are installed along with new springs. Overall, the car rides about a half-inch lower than stock to improve roll rate. To reduce unsprung weight, forged 20-inch HRE Performance wheels are fitted at all four corners (wearing Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires - 275/35ZR20 up front and 295/35ZR20 in the rear). Lastly, the company remaps the factory Electronic Damper Control (EDC) software with its own Dinan Shockware to work in conjunction with the new enhancements.
BMW revises X1 to tide it over until replacement
Tue, 17 Dec 2013It's been over five years since BMW first introduced the X1 at the 2008 Paris Motor Show, and a bit over a year since it brought the compact crossover to these shores. Soon the Bavarian automaker will replace the X1 with a new model based on the company's new front-drive architecture, but not before it gives it a few updates to keep it fresh.
Set to be unveiled at the Detroit Auto Show next month alongside the Z4 Pure Fusion Design and the new M3 sedan and M4 coupe, the enhanced X1 benefits from some new exterior accents, a spruced-up interior and new technology packed inside.
New air intakes in the bumper and integrated daytime driving lights distinguish the front end, with new wheel and color options available. Inside, certain versions get a new dashboard treatment, among other minor trim updates, and BMW has installed its latest ConnectedDrive suite to keep it up with the times. Scroll down for the full details.
BMW X5 gets full battery of performance visuals
Wed, 12 Feb 2014If you think BMW toned down its third-generation X5 CUV a little too much with its latest redesign, the new M Performance Parts line of optional parts may give you a chance to inject in a new sense of style.
The aesthetic parts include new carbon fiber pieces for the mirror caps, front splitter, rear diffuser and rear aero flaps. There's also a rear spoiler, high-gloss black kidney grilles, M Performance rocker panel decals and double-spoke 21-inch wheels with performance tires. The interior upgrades are similar with an available Alcantara steering wheel with carbon fiber trim, stainless steel pedals and carbon fiber gearshift trim.
Not all of the M Performance Parts are about style. The M Performance Power Kit sharpens throttle response and boosts power of the X5 xDrive35i to 320 horsepower and 332 pound-feet of torque, an improvement of 20 hp and 32 lb-ft, and an optional exhaust with chrome tips improves its sound. For buyers looking for improved stopping power, the M Performance Brake Kit adds six-piston calipers with 19-inch steel rotors.
