This is a magnificent 1997 BMW 528i with manual transmission. This car has all the options available, along with 15" lightweight BBS polished wheels, painted body mouldings, and a rear trunk spoiler. Has upgraded new headlights (old ones got dull, they come with the car as well), upgraded "angel eye" in the headlights along with HID's. The vehicle has all the maintenance upto date, including a recently replaced steering rack, fuel pump, water pump, and a complete flush and overhauld of the cooling system. New ignition coils, new spark plugs, new fuel filter, K&N air filter, oil changed every 3000 miles. The vehicle has approximately 185,000 miles on it. Paint still shines like new!! Everything works!

WHAT HAPPENED?!?!?!

The car was parked outside my garage (kids were playing table tennis), when the garbage truck rolled around to collect the weekly garbage, and decided to leave a little gift on the side. We weren't even aware until the driver knocked on our door to inform us. The damage seems only cosmetic, but I am not a body shop, so I dont konw. What I do know is that the front headlight is scratched, the right front fender is completely gone, the front & rear bumper is broken, the right front & rear passenger doors dont open, and the windows dont roll down (they seem to slightly roll down, but stop when the regulator hits the dented shell).

WHY SELL IT??

I was quoted $700 by the body shop to replace & paint the door shells, front & rear bumpers, the front fender, and buff out the scratches on the rear fender. I am selling because I dont have time or patience to get all this done, even though this is my daily driver, and runs & drives in it's current condition, instead, I will opt for something with a V-8. This would be an excellent car for someone to put a little TLC into. Please remember that this car is sold as used, so do not expect a perfect car.

Please note, the first few pictures show the vehicle before the wreck, with the M5 wheels and the newer tail lights which are NOT included with this car, I am selling those separately if interested. The vehicle will come with the BBS wheels shown in the later pictures, and the original tail lights from 1997. THE LAST 6 PICTURES SHOW THE CURRENT CONDITION OF THE VEHICLE.

Feel free to ask any questions, good luck & happy bidding!

BMW shows up-armored X5 concept and we can't get near it

Wed, 11 Sep 2013

BMW has brought a slightly different concept vehicle to the 2013 Frankfurt Motor Show. Rather than something that foreshadows a future product or a new design direction, the Munich-based manufacturer has brought an X5 that's designed to be shot at. It's called the Concept X5 Security Plus. The Concept X5 name is a bit misleading, though. It's based on the 2014 X5, while BMW already builds an armored CUV, called the X5 Security. The concept tag has to do with the "Security Plus" part.
Engineered to be compliant with VR6 security standards - the current X5 Security is for VR4 standards - the Concept X5 will quite happily shrug off direct attacks from an AK-47. Thanks to sealed joints, high-strength steel moldings, high-performance steel body panels and special, polycarbonate-coated security glass, Kalashnikov's finest, whether used as a firearm or as a melee weapon, would be useless against this X5.
Built alongside the standard X5 in BMW's Spartanburg, SC factory, the X5 is shipped to a BMW facility in Toluca, Mexico for installation of the armor and security features. The company claims this delivers a more thoroughly engineered protective solution than aftermarket retrofitting.

2014 BMW M235i

Tue, 21 Jan 2014

We 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.
