Condition: UsedA vehicle is considered used if it has been registered and issued a title. Used vehicles have had at least one previous owner. The condition of the exterior, interior and engine can vary depending on the vehicle's history. See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"small body dings, some scratches in rear leather seat"

HISTORY: I purchased the car from local BMW dealer in 2007 with 46,358 miles. Documented 1 owner trade in with a copy of original title as sold in Little Rock April 2000. BODY CONDITION: There are a few door dings and a small crack in the front spoiler. I have not had any thing touched up or concealed after 6 years of hobby use. I do drive it and If you want it near perfect $500 to $1,000 with a top paint and body guy that knows how to blend panels should do it. I think a buyer would prefer to see the all original paint to know what he is buying. There are two exceptions. Someone recently pointed out that the M5 emblem is too high on the decklid so I checked out the rear of the car super closely and discovered (after 6 years of ownership) that the decklid has been repainted. The only way I could tell (because the paint job is a perfect match) is that the barcode behind the license plate is painted over. The paint work is so good I suspect the vertical portion was blended in and the top portion is original. I have no idea why and suspect it was for a minor dent or scratch. There is absolutely no evidence of any damage. The hairline split in the front spoiler was there when I bought it and I had it repaired and the front spoiler only repainted the first month I owned the car. He was not a great choice and the job he did has just been OK, but we are talking spoiler only here and the crack reappeared when I nudged a curb one day last year. This is only seen on close inspection. MECHANICALS: Most work performed at dealership except recent suspension work by a certified BMW independent shop. I did not even know these existed until this one opened by a certified "defector" tech from the local dealership. The only issues with this car is the SES light is on and has been professionally diagnosed (coded) from both the local dealership as well as the independent as cold air secondary port contamination. I have recently began using KB44 gas additive (look it up on the internet) in conjunction with a strict no ethanol 92 octane gas diet. Aftyer only 2 tanks the SES light went off for most of a 160 mile jaunt through the mountains, on the freeway and only reappeared after another 10 miles of city driving. I believe the carbon is breaking up and keep in mind these are monitoring passageways built into the heads that are in use less than 3 minutes when the car is cold. It is emmissions monitoring only and does not effect the cars performance. Brakes are good, tires are nearly new, new ball joints, thrust rods and rear link. The car runs strong, never any vanos or any other issues. INTERIOR: This is not the E39 platform's strong suit and it has the usual broken cup holders as well as one quarter glass sunshade does not retract and one of the visor mirror light switches works when it wants to. There is the normal "ballglove" type creases in the leather. I personally like the aged leather look, but suppose this could be made to look new again with leather dressings. I have only used clear leather treatments without any stains. Amazingly, no light pixels are out. Car does have Navigation with original disc and 6 CD changer set up on original sound system. WHEELS and TIRES: 18" custom matched Zenettis (current prices are aropund $2,000 for a set - super high quality) made specifically for E39 M5's or E39 540i's with sport package. The exact correct offset of the original wheels. I do not have the original wheels. The tires were installed 8/13/12 and are Cooper RS3A's.

New BMW i3-like Visio.M EV concept uses lightweight resin

Tue, Oct 21 2014

It's not a new version of the BMW i3, but an updated version of a lightweight concept car from SABIC, BMW, the Technical University of Munich, Daimler and others does bear a certain resemblance to the well-designed plug-in city car. From the black "glass" in the hatch to the angled line tail lights to the up-and-down window line, you can see a sort of family resemblance (see an i3 comparison photo here). And, of course, they both have an electric powertrain. But the changes made to the new lightweight urban electric concept vehicle is more of an exercise in what's possible rather than a way to evolve the i3 and i8 into a broader i family of vehicles. Even so, what we see here is interesting, since SABIC found all sorts of new ways to take weight out of the car as part of the Visio.M (Visionary Mobility) project, which was first announced in 2012. Let's start with the window material, which as you might guess from the quotation marks above, is not made of glass but is instead SABIC's Lexan polycarbonate (PC) resin plastic. The lower weight (the PC helps shed about 29 pounds) adds two miles of range while the PC resin has better thermal conductivity compared to glass and so does even more because the HVAC system can be more efficient. According to SABIC's computational fluid dynamics analysis, an extra 9-10 miles of range, in fact. Without the battery, this concept weighs just 992 pounds. Remember, BMW already made a lot of weight-reduction measures in the i3 thanks to carbon fiber reinforced plastic, so to make the "glass" lighter would only help boost efficiencies on a production vehicle that uses a resin like this. Read more below. SABIC's LEXAN™ resin delivers weight savings and thermal efficiency for new ultra-lightweight electric car concept developed by BMW-led Visio.M Consortium Munich, October 20, 2014 Today, at the Technical University of Munich (TUM), BMW, Daimler, TUM scientists and a consortium of industry participants showcased a lightweight urban electric concept vehicle with various advances, including an all-plastic design of the car's windows. The windows are made of LEXAN resin, a polycarbonate (PC) material, and coating technologies from SABIC, a leading developer of PC glazing for automotive windows and many other thermoplastic solutions for the automotive industry.

BMW owners celebrate 40 years of 3 Series

Fri, May 8 2015

With a recent refresh and introduction of the 340i, BMW is continuing to evolve the 3 Series to make sure that the it can keep up in the competitive world of sport sedans. However, the company doesn't want to forgot the past 40 years of the 3 Series' history. In a new video, the brand travels the world to let owners of a few classic examples explain just what makes this model so special. While several generations get their turn in the limelight, fans of the E30 from the '80s and early '90s will find a lot to like here. BMW travels to Las Vegas, NV, to talk with a guy who specializes in restoring them, and then the company goes to Jakarta, Indonesia, to check out one that's grabbing trophies on the racetrack. A bit of advice, though: make sure to turn on the subtitles for this video because portions of it include interviews with Spanish and German owners in their native languages.

BMW Smart Charging App helps drivers charge for less

Tue, Jun 10 2014

As electric vehicles proliferate and people try to conserve energy, moves toward smart charging seem only natural. Now, BMW is offering smarter charging, and it should mean more money in the pockets of its customers when they charge at home. BMW owners who drive one of the company's i vehicles will be able to use the BMW Smart Charging App that taps into a national energy rate database (powered by Genability) to allow drivers to automate charging during off-peak hours when electricity usage costs are lower. Charging vehicles at these lower rates could save drivers as much as $400 a year, BMW says. It's a simple idea, but one that could make BMW's EVs even more attractive to potential customers. The BMW Smart Charging App is initially available to customers who have leased a BMW ActiveE from the company's 2012 test fleet, a group whom BMW dubs Electronauts, and many of whom are also early adopters of the BMW i3. The app will then become available to all BMW i3 and i8 customers beginning in 2015. The Smart Charging App is integrated with the BMW i Remote App, which links with the BMW ConnectedDrive interface to also allow drivers to monitor charging times and vehicle status, adjust charging settings and even adjust vehicle temperature so the car is ready before the driver gets in the vehicle. The Smart Charging App is available for iOS and Android devices. Find more information in the press release from BMW below. BMW Launches First App to Automate the Home Charging Process for BMW i Electric Vehicles. 09.06.2014 BMW Smart Charging App Determines Optimal Times for Charging Electric Vehicles Based on Rates and Calculates Cost. Woodcliff Lake, NJ – June 9, 2014... The new BMW Smart Charging App makes it possible for BMW i customers to automatically identify the best rates and times for charging their electric vehicles at home. Developed by the BMW Group and available for Android and iOS devices, the BMW Smart Charging App is integrated with the BMW i Remote App, which allows drivers to get vehicle information via their smartphone. The BMW Smart Charging App has the potential to save customers as much as $400 annually on their electric bills. BMW is the first automotive manufacturer to offer this automated and fully integrated functionality. In its initial phase, the BMW Smart Charging App is currently available to BMW Electronauts.
