Plano, Texas, United States
|
I'm the 2nd owner and have had this car for over 7 years. It has been completely babied, full synthetic oil, Shell V-Power gas and 100% garaged at home since day one and garaged at work for the last year. It has never been in an accident and has a clean title. Feel free to CARFAX it.
It's been solid since I've had it, no weird noise or rattling. The mileage is mostly highway as I've always had a long commute to work. I've spent a lot of money over the years to keep up with maintenance and upgrades, so it's very well kept, lots of compliments and "thumbs up" all the time! It handles beautifully, engine and transmission performs like new! As most of you may know, this is one of the finest sedans ever built! I'm just selling it along with another BMW of mine to get an M5. The list of things I've done are extensive but here are a few things that come to mind (upgrades & features): - Complete paint job in 2012 due to hail (hood was replaced), factory Alpine WHITE and Jet BLACK roof. It has 3 coats of Euro-clear clear coat with a minimal life expectancy of 10+ years. - M-Tech front and rear bumpers - Rear ///M style trunk lip spoiler - Imitation headlight nozzles =) - Matte black front hood kidney grills - New front windshield rubber weather strip/gasket - 18" STR (BBS LM Reps) gold mesh wheels, 18x9 rear and 18x8 front with matching front and rear pair of tires with 8/32nd tread life left ($1000) - 20mm front wheel spacers and 12mm rear spacers (perfect stance) - Full Bilstein shocks/struts on all corners ($900) - H&R sport springs with 1.8" drop all around ($250) - New tie rods, front upper control arms, bushings, rear control arms, sway bar links, strut mounts - New brake master cylinder ($420) - Under manifold heater core plastic pipes replaced within the last 2 years - Updated headlights, OEM with HID 10K bulbs (auto-leveling adjusters are new!!!) - Updated clear & red tail lights - Clear side markers on fenders - Yellow filmed fog lights - Professional 35% charcoal Tint with life-time warranty - 12" Kenwood Subwoofer in custom built trunk box specifically for e39 - 800 Watt amplifier with remote under-dash power/volume control - OEM ///M sport seats, sport steering wheel, step-tronic shifting - Keyless entry and OEM factory alarm system with proximity sensor - OEM shadowline window trimming and body moulding - Updated LED angel eye bulbs - Carbon fiber front splitters ($450!) - Updated OEM gloss interior trimming (I hated the ugly wood trimming) - Full 16" sized spare with Michelin tire in excellent condition - OEM factory trunk tools, jack and tire choke - Upgraded Duralast battery - Super cold AC and very hot heater - Dual zone and automatic temperature controls - De-badged OEM 528i emblem and replaced with "E39" black chrome trunk emblem - Real Carbon fiber ///M sport shift knob (needs to be tightened) - ///M sport tan floor mats - Replaced rear door panel vapor barriers (fixed the common e39 water leak problem) - LED error-free license plate lights - ALL dash pixels are working!!! I've never had to fix it - Custom mount bolted directly to the back of the rearview mirror for Valentine V1 radar - Excellent alignment (warranty might me transferrable) - Aluminum front brake ducts in lower grill (functional too - leads to brake discs!) - Cross drilled rotors on all 4 corners - EBC red front brake pads - New OEM oil pan gasket - New OEM oil filter housing gasket - New OEM fuel filter - I use Mobil-1 full synthetic oil, 5W30 and high Octane fuel on every refill (99% of the time it's from SHELL, V-Power) - No major leaks on the garage floor!!! - I still get about 22-24 MPG with this car - 2 OEM BMW keys with remote door, trunk and panic button (you can also use for automatic window & sunroof opening!!!) - Large stack of paperwork and records - CLEAN BLUE TITLE under my name and address ***I'm asking for $7800 cash - NO TRADES, NO PAYMENTS - I am not a dealer ***Call or Text me at 972-897-3094 for an appointment to view & test drive. I'm hoping to sell it to a true e39 lover and BMW enthusiast that will continue to take care of it so it can be pampered. =) |

Daimler, BMW, Audi consortium nabs Nokia maps for $2.72B
Wed, Jul 22 2015A consortium of German automakers made up of Daimler, BMW, and Audi has reportedly banded together to buy Nokia's Here mapping division for the equivalent of about $2.7 billion. The particulars of the deal aren't yet official but could be announced at the end of July. Reuters claims that this info comes from anonymous insiders speaking to Manager Magazin in Germany. It might be too soon, however, to declare a buyer. Reuters also spoke to two other insiders, and they said that no deal has been completed yet. None of the firms involved has officially spoken about the negotiations. Some of the other bidders for the division have reportedly bowed out. Here is a high-definition digital mapping company that controls about 70 percent of the auto market. The company has a fleet of vehicles with cameras and LIDAR (pictured above) to generate all of the necessary information. It also partners with trucking companies to use their GPS data. Nokia started looking for potential buyers for Here earlier this year. Tech giants that reportedly included Uber and Apple were rumored to be interested, while German automakers also teamed up to submit a joint bid in part to protect their access to the maps. On paper, Here is only valued at around $785 million, but a sale in the billions now seems assured.

BMW i8 Spyder gets production nod
Wed, 18 Dec 2013BMW could be poised to expand its i8 range, beyond the hardtop version of the plug-in hybrid supercar. A report from Bimmerpost is claiming that the i8 Spyder, which we showed you in concept form at the 2012 Beijing Motor Show, will be heading to production.
The website claims the open-roof fuel-sipper was shown to BMW management last Friday as a production-intent model. Other than that, there's not a lot to tell here. The i8 Spyder should feature all the same mechanical and aesthetic features found on the i8 Coupe, just without the confining nature of a roof. It's unclear when we'll see a production i8 droptop make its debut, although this certainly strikes us as the kind of car that should arrive at the Geneva Motor Show.
While an i8 Spyder does seem like a logical leap for BMW's i sub-brand, we're going to keep this one filed under the rumors category until we hear more.
Preserving automotive history costs big bucks
Wed, 29 Jan 2014
$1.8 million is spent each year to maintain GM's fleet of 600 production and concept cars.
When at least two of the Detroit Three were on the verge of death a few years back, one of the tough questions that was asked of Ford, General Motors and Chrysler execs - outside of why execs were still taking private planes to meetings - was why each company maintained huge archives of old production and concept vehicles. GM, for example, had an 1,100-vehicle collection when talk of a federal bailout began.
