It is with mixed emotions that I am placing my "baby" up for sale.  She turns heads everywhere I go, though she has been a garage queen for the last 18 months.  Keeping her in the garage all the time has kept her all nice and clean, but this car deserves to be driven a bit more than I have the time to devote to it right now.  It has always been an added vehicle for me and garage kept its entire life.


The 2006 BMW M5 is equipped with almost all added options available plus the standard features.  The standard features of the M5 includes power seats, power mirrors, 7 speed auto shifter with paddle shifters, heated leather seats, cruise, navigation, CD changer, sunroof, high end stereo, etc.  The added option on this car include iPod integration, heads-up display, ventilated (cooled) seats, multi-function seats with lumbar adjustment, active seat width adjustment, satellite (SirrusXM) radio, split fold down rear seats, leather dash, leather center console, leather door covers, and suede headliner.  In addition to this, a couple added features to this includes the aFe Intake system, Eisenmann stainless steel exhaust, and 20in aftermarket wheels with nearly new tires (approx 1500 miles).  Stock, there is 507 horsepower on the M5, but the addition of the intake and exhaust, gives this approx 540 at the crank.  These were professionally installed and the stock intake comes with the car if you choose to change it back.  

I have owned for over 2 years and purchased it from the dealer that sold it new and serviced it for the first 79k miles.  I have all records of the maintenance and repairs.  Prior to delivery when I purchased, an error code for the transmission came up so the dealership chose to pull the trans to replace the clutch (initial diagnosis).  When out, it was determined it was a relay, not a the clutch that was the problem but when ahead and replaced the clutch anyway.  I state this because some of these cars have been driven very hard and not keep up on the service.  This car has been babied its entire life.  The miles are higher than some as the previous owner drove 120 miles a day on the interstate (Carfax report shows this to be 18k/yr average).   

If you are picky like me, here are the minor "flaws" to the car:  very small stone chip in windshield (I will have repaired prior to delivery), some minor stone marks on the hood on front bumper, minor wear on drivers side bolster and armrest, minor curb rash on two wheels (thanks to my wife but that is another tale for another day).  Otherwise, mechanically it is in top shape with all services up to date.  Recent front brakes, tires, and alignment.

Weekly Recap: Ferrari plans to gradually increase production by 2019

Sat, Oct 17 2015

Ferrari has long been known for the exclusivity of its performance machines. It's on a different level than Porsche, BMW, and Mercedes. But as it transitions to a new era of independence from Fiat Chrysler, Ferrari is going to get a little less exclusive. It's by design, and it means a subtle, slow ramp-up of production – a move Ferrari believes will ensure its future by meeting growing demand in new markets. The strategy was detailed in SEC documents filed this month as part of the company's pending stock offering. The files reveal Ferrari will gradually increase shipments to about 9,000 units per year by 2019. This is a reversal of Ferrari's 2013 plans to cap production at 7,000 cars annually, which it hit on the nose that year. Ferrari shipments inched up to 7,255 in 2014, though that's down from 2012's record tally of 7,405. Ferrari is a vastly different operation than it was in 2013. Longtime chairman Luca di Montezemolo stepped down last fall, and FCA chief executive Sergio Marchionne has been overseeing the company since then. Its IPO has attracted high levels of attention from enthusiasts and investors. As expected, demand has reportedly outstripped the availability of the stock, which has an estimated offering price of $48 to $52 a share. Speaking of more Ferraris, the company revealed a limited-edition model this week called the F12tdf (shown above). Based on the F12 Berlinetta, the car is a salute to the Tour de France endurance auto race that Ferrari dominated in the 1950s and '60s. The V12 engine's output increases to 769 horsepower, while weight is cut by 243 pounds – allowing for a sprint to 60 mph in 2.9 seconds. Dramatic carbon-fiber elements and a radical redesign of the body panels give the F12 a more dramatic look. It will be limited to 799 units over the life of the car. If this is how Ferrari is increasing production, we're more than okay with the company's new strategy. OTHER NEWS & NOTES Tesla software unlocks Autopilot features Tesla released the latest version of its software for the Model S this week, which allows the all-electric sedan to drive in a semi-autonomous state called Autopilot. Tesla Version 7.0 enables the Model S to maintain lane position, change lanes by touching the turn signal, and manage the car's speed using an advanced, traffic-sensing cruise control. It also has a parallel parking feature, which searches for open spots and then parks your Tesla.

1972 BMW 1602e EV concept looks glorious

Wed, Mar 25 2015

Pretty sweet. That's a first impression of one cherry-looking experimental electric vehicle from BMW from way back in the day. Or at least from someone who for a time drove a '74 2002. A gas-powered one, that is. BMW built two experimental vehicles in 1972 based off of the old 1600 (which evolved into the 2002) model and even showed them off during the Munich Olympic Games of that year. BMW strung together a dozen typical car batteries and linked them to an electric motor made by Bosch. The result was a battery pack that weighed about 770 pounds (A quick modern-day comparison: a Nissan Leaf battery pack weighs about 480 pounds). Bimmer recently posted a two-and-a-half minute video about the project. The clip doesn't say how far those cars could go on a single charge, but did use to the vehicles to "escort" long-distance running competitions at the Munich Games, since there was no exhaust to choke those athletes out. The timing is fortuitous, of course, as the German automaker looks to continue to gain more goodwill from the green-car set through its new "i" sub-brand of plug-in vehicles, including the i3 electric vehicle and the i8 plug-in hybrid.

2015 BMW M4 gets initiated into the club

Fri, 22 Aug 2014

It's easy for enthusiasts and traditionalists to give BMW a hard time these days, what with its plans to add more front-wheel drive models and seeming move away from more emotionally connected cars. However, the push for perfection that underscored its old Ultimate Driving Machine motto is still in there, especially in its M models. In fact, the first M4 recently made it to US shores, and the company thought the only appropriate way to celebrate was to introduce its new coupe to some of its high-performance forefathers.
The M4's initiation into the M car brotherhood involved bringing together no fewer than 52 classic and newer models - including four racecars and many privately owned vehicles - to an empty parking lot and letting the coupe drift and slalom around them to say hello. According to BMW, there was a combined 11,566 horsepower on hand. It takes a pretty trusting owner to stand back and watch as a brand-new vehicle slides its tail out with the rear wheels smoking within feet of their pride and joy. Stay tuned until the end where the owners and their cars get a shout out in the credits. Scroll down to read BMW's press release about it.
