Hello....
Thanks for viewing my auction.. I am selling my 1997 BMW 528i with Black exterior and Tan Interior.
Exterior
Exterior is in very good condition for a 1997. There are minor scrape, dings and dents here and there. There is a small dent by the hood where someone backed into the car. Please see pictures for detail. No Major accidents. Tires are almost brand new. Changed them a few months ago.
Interior
The front seats are the only flaw interior has. Nice seat covers will make it look nice. Seats are worn from daily use. There is a crack by front driver seat controller. Please see the pictures. The latch for hood broke off so it just has the wire to open the hood. It still works. You can put the latch back on yourself. Interior needs good cleaning. Car used to have a phone system but was removed previously. There are ipod, phone and TV connections. It has a nice pioneer stereo.
Engine
Strong engine and smooth transmission. No leaks.
Overall
Car is in a very good condition. Clean title. Selling it because I bought an another car. Registration expires end of this month. Everything is stock. It has wiring to hook up to a subwoofer. Selling as is. No warranty.
Call me at 415-694-2492 to view the car. Please ask any question before auction ends. The car is located 1 hour north of Santa Barbara.
Bidding on ebay is a binding contract and please only bid if you are planning to buy it. Please respect my time. Thank you.

Consumer Reports' first motorcycle reliability report finds Japanese brands ahead
Sat, 22 Feb 2014Consumer Reports has released its first ever study of motorcycle reliability, and students of its ratings on cars might notice a suspicious similarity - Japanese brands require fewer repairs than the leading American or German brands.
The study analyzed the reliability of 4,680 bikes owned by CR subscribers and found that Yamaha had the best ratings, with just one in ten bikes built between 2009 and 2012 requiring a repair over a four-year period. The makers of the R1 and R6 sport bikes were closely followed by Kawasaki and Honda, while one out of every four of the rumbling bikes from Harley-Davidson experienced an issue. BMW had the worst rating of the brands represented, with one in three bikes having problems.
According to CR, neither Suzuki nor Triumph owners provided enough information for a reliable rating. Based on the responses received, though, Suzuki would have finished with the other Japanese brands and Triumph, being English, would have been one of the less reliable makes.
BMW Concept 90 Motorcycle debuts at Villa d'Este
Fri, 24 May 2013The Concept 90 is one of two new vehicles BMW is showing off at the Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este on the tony shores of Lake Como in Italy. This year is the 90th anniversary of BMW Motorrad and the 40th anniversary of the R 90 S (inset) - the first production motorcycle to come with a front fairing - and BMW has worked with custom bike builder Roland Sands Design to craft a homage to the Daytona Orange boxer from the Seventies.
While following the line of its forbearer, obviously the Concept 90 has been sexed and sleeked up. The bodywork is of hand-worked aluminum, the giant halogen lamp of the 1975 model (which is when Daytona Orange was introduced) has gone LED, and the front engine cover, valve covers, exhaust and wheels have been made with a contrast-cut milling process.
For a finer description of the Concept 90 check out the press release below, or skip the words and go straight to the high-res images above.
BMW i3 misses top Euro safety rating [w/videos]
Wed, 27 Nov 2013The Euro NCAP just tested a recent batch of new cars including the 2014 BMW i3, and the EV Bimmer scored less-than-perfect results. Though not horrible, BMW's all-electric/range-extended i3 was given a four-star (out of five possible) crash rating due to concerns with front-occupant whiplash and side-impact protection.
Based on the crash results, the BMW provided suitable protection for occupants in the frontal, side barrier, pedestrian and child-seat tests, but the i3 was tripped up when it came to the more severe side pole test and the rear-impact test. The pole test showed protection to the chest of the test dummy was "weak," and the front seats only provided "marginal" protection against whiplash for front passengers. Scroll down to watch two videos released by the Euro NCAP of the i3 being tested.
