Fantastic and Beautiful Car!
Exactly what you expect from a BMW, power, elegance, and solid handling.
Drive it just as it is and you'll have an excellent daily driver that'll get compliments on a daily basis and will be a joy to drive.
Take care of a few details and this BMW will be your pride and joy for years to come.
Don't want to mess up your new car this winter? This could be your perfect winter car! Heated Front Seats!!
This 540iA performed flawlessly on a cross country trip from Los Angeles to Tampa in August.
I am the 3rd owner of this 15 year old German Sport Luxury Cruiser.
Please remember she is 15 years old. As good as she is, this vehicle does have a few details that need taken care of to make her 100% again.
Mechanically:
the vehicle has been checked over by a BMW specialist and the only known issue is that the the check engine light is on, due to a faulty electrical thermostat. However the mechanical portion is working perfectly and the car has NO overheating issues!
Rear passenger window regulator needs to be replaced.
Cosmetically:
After 15 years and 136,000 miles the paint has some chips and is starting to fade a little, but it still shines up nicely, as seen in the pictures.
The gray, full power, heated leather seats show some wear, but are still incredibly comfortable.
Some of the wood grain trim is cracked.
Overall:
Great car. As is, makes a great daily driver or winter car. With a little attention you can easily make it new again.
If you're a fan of BMW's, you know how great this car is. If you've always wanted to get into a BMW but were afraid of the costs, you can't go wrong at this price!
Nearly 300 horsepower! 0-60mph in 6 seconds (in a car that weighs nearly 4000lbs!)
Front & Rear side impact airbags.
Wholesale priced! Don't miss out.
I can possibly deliver anywhere along the East Coast (at cost) AFTER vehicle has been paid for.
Vehicle is being advertised locally, so I reserve the right to end the auction at any time.

BMW pondering hardcore M4 to celebrate 100 years?
Thu, 03 Oct 20132013 is the year for Lamborghini, Aston Martin and the Porsche 911, but 2016 will be the year for BMW. That's when the Munich-based maker of the Ultimate Driving Machine will celebrate its 100th birthday, with what will probably be a year-long celebration. Part of that 365-day party will, reportedly, be an even hotter version of the new BMW M4, which is set to debut in January at the Detroit Auto Show.
Yes, according to Australia's Car Sales, the über-M4 has been hinted at by higher-ups at BMW's M division, who claim the rear seats will be removed, much like the M3 GTS, while other weight-saving measures will be used to try and bring the M4's weight below 3,000 pounds. There's no mention of engine mods, but if the M4's biturbocharged six is as good as we think it'll be, that's not a deal-breaker for us.
The lightening process on the so-called M4 GTS would involve replacing the hood and front fenders with parts made of carbon fiber, while the doors would switch from steel to aluminum. Besides the deletion of the rear seats, Car Sales is predicting lightweight racing buckets, with a carbon-fiber shell and a minimal amount of padding. Expect lots and lots of Alcantara, in place of leather.
2014 BMW M235i
Tue, 21 Jan 2014We know a number of BMW owners who reside in the Munich brand's core demographic - upper-five- and six-figure professionals who like to keep their automotive brand credentials as highly respected among their peers as their alma maters or the letters after their names. Before heading to Las Vegas to drive the new M235i, we asked four of those owners, "What did you think of the E30 3 Series?" Although phrased differently, every one of them had the same answer: "What's that?"
You can counter that we just happened to query a tiny and ignorant sample size, and it's possible that you're right. Nevertheless, in every case,we were speaking to BMW's core demographic, the increasing legion of buyers who have fostered another year of record growth and are responsible for BMW retaining its global luxury title for nine straight years. Question that, and we'll refer you to BMW's marketing department, its several hundred PowerPoint slides and several thousand pages of research that prove the point.
That second-generation E30 3 Series built a name, a brand and an entire segment by defining BMW-ness as superlative driving dynamics meets luxury - shortened to the phrase, "The Ultimate Driving Machine." Thirty years later, just being a part of BMW-ness and luxury is enough for the majority of buyers. The superlative handling, that's optional, and 150 hairy guys meet every Tuesday to keep the old religion going, light torches, sing dirges to the siren long gone and bang on their keyboards about the apostasies of modern buyers.
BMW planning to stretch i3 into i5 family hauler?
Sat, 30 Nov 2013If you're sweet on the new BMW i3 but wish it had more space to carry people and stuff, we've got good news for you. According to Autocar, BMW is planning on stretching the platform that underpins the i3 to create a new model, expected to be called i5.
The stretch job would add an extra four inches of legroom in the back and another six inches of rear overhang to the benefit of cargo space. The result would create a vehicle longer than the current Mini Countryman - although the next Countryman is likely to be even larger. As Autocar points out, the process of extending the i3's composte passenger cell likely wouldn't be as difficult or cost-intensive as lengthening a conventional metal chassis, although the rear doors would need to be re-engineered.
Whether the resulting vehicle would more closely resemble a hatchback, wagon, minivan or something in between remains to be seen, however BMW is said to have already registered the nameplates i1 through i8, signalling that the possibility is at least there to add more members to its new EV family.
