THE WIFE SAYS I HAVE TOO MANY BMWs SO THIS ONE IS THE FIRST OF THREE THAT I AM GOING TO BE LISTING IN THE NEXT THREE DAYS. THIS ONE WE HAVE NICK-NAMED "THE MULE", NOT THE PRETTIEST OR THE FASTEST BUT RELIABLE AND STURDY. WE HAVE USED THIS FOR EVERYDAY USE AND HAVE MAINTAINED IT VERY WELL. IT HAS VARIOUS DINGS AND SCRATCHES IN THE PAINT BUT NO MAJOR DENTS AND NO RUST. IT IS A 1997 BMW 528i WITH THE STRAIGHT 6 ENGINE AND 4 SPEED AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION. THERE ARE NO KNOCKS, TICKS, OR SMOKE COMING FROM THE ENGINE AND THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTS AS IT SHOULD. THE BRAKES HAVE NEW ROTORS AND PADS ALL THE WAY AROUND AND THE ANTILOCK AND ASC CONTROL WORKS WELL WITH NO WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. ALL THE WINDOWS ROLL UP AND DOWN BUT THE SUNROOF YOU HAVE TO HOLD DOWN THE AIR DAM WHEN CLOSING IT. HEAT WORKS VERY WELL AND THE A/C BLOWS COLD. THE DEFROSTER ONLY BLOWS OUT HOT AND AT HIGH SPEED WHICH I AM NOT SURE HOW TO RESOLVE. THE CAR HAS THE COLD WEATHER PACKAGE WITH SEAT HEATERS AND HEATED STEERING WHEEL. RADIO PLAYS AND TAPE PLAYER WORKS AS WELL AS THE CD CHANGER. THERE MIGHT BE ONE OR TWO SMALL PIXELS OUT IN THE RADIO DISPLAY BUT BARELY NOTICEABLE. YOU MAY HAVE NOTICED THE 17 INCH SPORT WHEELS ON THE CAR. IT IS NOT A SPORT MODEL BUT I HAD PURCHASED A 98 BMW SPORT MODEL THAT WAS WRECKED FOR THE WHEELS BECAUSE THE ORIGINALS I THOUGHT WERE UGLY. I ALSO CHANGED THE LOWERED SPORT STRUTS AND SUSPENSION FROM THE PARTS CAR TO THIS ONE. THE CAR I GOT THE WHEELS FROM HAD A NEW RADIATOR AND THERMOSTAT HOUSING AND I INSTALLED THEM ON THIS CAR ALSO. I WOULD NOT HESITATE TO DRIVE THIS CAR ACROSS THE COUNTRY AND IT HAS RECENTLY DRIVEN ROUND TRIP TO MISSISSIPPI AND BACK AND AVERAGED 28 MPG.

She's just a girl... who's an E28 fanatic
Tue, 02 Apr 2013Ashley Rodriguez has a thing for the BMW E28. The amateur train photographer has owned over 15 of the cars in her brief lifetime, and says she's attracted to the old 5 Series because of how rare they are. All told, she's owned every variation of the E28 with the exception of the 2.4td, and the crew from Petrolicious recently stopped by to train their lenses on her most recent acquisition: a lovely M535i. The site's latest video, Rare Things, takes a closer look at just what draws Rodriguez to the E28 and how her passion for the cars has evolved over the years.
As usual, Petrolicious serves up plenty of gorgeous footage of the vintage German sedan, and anyone who's ever harbored an obsession over any one particular model can certainly hear a few chords ring true in Rodriguez's words. Check out the clip below to see what we mean.
2014 BMW X5 doesn't upset the formula
Wed, 29 May 2013BMW has unveiled the 2014 X5, and fans of the company's CUV will find plenty familiar in the machine. The biggest change to the recipe comes in the form of the X5 sDrive35i, which is the first rear-wheel drive version of the high-riding five-door to date. Buyers will, of course, continue to be able to opt for all-wheel drive, and both models will get their thrust from a 3.0-liter, turbocharged inline six-cylinder engine. That powerplant makes 300 horsepower and 300 pound-feet of torque and is mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission. BMW says the combination is good enough to get the SUV to 60 miles per hour in around 6.2 seconds.
Those who require more thrust can step up to the more potent X5 xDrive50i with its twin-turbo 4.4-liter V8 engine. Drivers get to enjoy an extra 45 hp over the previous model, with final output up to 445 hp and 480 lb-ft of torque. Paired with an eight-speed automatic of its own, the engine can hustle the big X5 to 60 mph in 4.9 seconds.
The 2014 BMW xDrive35d continues to offer diesel power, though output has dropped 10 horsepower to 255 hp and 413 lb-ft of torque. Even so, BMW says the X5 diesel will be just as quick or quicker than the 2013 model. You can check out the full press release below for more information.
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.
