This is a beautiful example of an M5. It has high miles for it's age at ~60,000 miles, but has been highway driven early in it's life. My friends can't believe it's got that many miles after seeing it. Only a few thousand miles a year in the last two years. I was only allowed to put 24 pictures up, but have more available upon request. It is black ventilated leather on the inside (and they really cover everything in leather on the M5, not just the seats. It's quite luxurious feeling really). It is black sapphire metallic in color so doesn't show carwash swirl marks like a flat black one would. This has the Olive Ash Wood interior, which is much classier than the aluminum standard trim in my opinion. See the pictures for yourself, but they don't do it justice.
Some options:
-rear and rear passenger sun shades. The rear is powered and the 4 side ones are manual.
-Technology package (not sure what that is)
-Climate package (not sure what that is)
-heads up display (nice, but not critical)
-Ventilated front seats (nice, not critical)
-Automatic high beam headlights (I've never really figured these out)
-Adaptive Headlights that swivel in turns (great feature)
-Comfort Access Keyless Entry (DO NOT buy any BMW without this!)
-Soft close doors (really useless feature unless you're 80 years old and too weak to close a door)
-Multifunction seats (adjustable in many many ways. even the seat back has a hinge in the middle for extra adjustability. If you can't get comfortable in this seat, you're not human)
I had the SMG pump and sensor go on me, which everyone talks about, but is rather unpleasant at $5,482.22. But for you, that takes all the guessing out of this car as it's just replaced by a BMW dealer and as such, now has a 2 year unlimited mileage warranty on it.
I'm selling it because it's really not my type of car. I bought it because a neighbor had one and raved about it, but I'm just not that spirited a driver. So to me, the engine doesn't feel very powerful since I don't rev it high, and the transmission isn't smooth since I typically use automatic mode. My neighbor drives a little more spiritedly and paddle shifts, so it that's you, then you'll love this car. If you're just looking for an attractive, all-options luxury car, you shouldn't buy this car. I've had a 335 and a 540. I think I'll go back to their equivalent. I may also list this locally if I get around to it, so there's a chance that I sell it locally and have to cancel the bid. I'll probably wait a couple of days and see if there's much bidding before deciding to list it. But please don't complain if I take the listing down for that reason.
The car certainly has some nice features. The Alacantra roof liner is quite striking and gives a real air of disctinction to the car. The wheels are classy but large, immediately differentiating this car from other 5-series. The whole stance of the car is menacing without being over the top about it. Lovely really, and it gets many compliments and looks of awe or jealousy. The critical elements of Seat and Steering Wheel are fantastic - The best I've ever felt. Even the cruise control was a pleasant surprise with some nice little features that let you jump up or down by 5mph.
When you do accelerate quickly, especially after pressing the intimidatingly labeled "M-Mode", the car becomes alive. The seats grab you, the HUD shows a tachometer and speed on the windshield in bright colors and the engine seems to double in size. The sound on this mode is quite glorious too, but it's quite a fast car, so you don't really have many opportunities to do this beyond the odd on-ramp. The one time I was driving home after beeing at work late, an M3 took off from the stop light. Since there was nobody around, I pressed the trusty M-Mode and jumped after him and past him. We were both laughing, or perhaps giggling by the time I'd passed him in a thunderous roar. Great fun, but not the kind of thing I ought to repeat. It really made me appreciate this beast's power though. I had a Cadillac CTS-V roar past me the other day, but he seemed too serious about the whole thing, so I let him rip along. Contrasting the sound of this M5 to his car was quite striking. His car sounded like it was 2000 rpm past the redline whereas the M5 at full boil sounds stolen from a Formula 1 car. It's not that big thumping v8 sound, just a highly technical, full and ferocious sound.
It is a tough decision to sell it, but the car just doesn't make sense for a driver like me.

2015 BMW i8 offers you a fast ride to the future for $135,700* [w/video]
Tue, 10 Sep 2013BMW's long-form teasing and rollout of its incredibly cool i8 has put us in a unique position to report from its world debut here in Frankfurt. Typically, an auto show debut marks just the start of the information dump about a new vehicle. The i8, however, is a car that we've already driven and reviewed, so perhaps the biggest news from the show floor is the official price of the thing, as well as getting to see it live and in person, of course.
Arriving in US showrooms in the spring of 2014, the i8 performance plug-in hybrid will carry a price tag of $135,700 (*not including $925 for destination and handling charges). That kind of cash puts the i8 near the very top of the BMW range (slotting just under the top-trim 7-Series models), and will buy a massive amount of new technology.
The four-seat i8 has the look of a true supercar, and its new-tech drivetrain will offer up the performance of a stirring sports car, at least. A TwinPower Turbo, three-cylinder, 1.5-liter engine will make 231 horsepower and 236 pound-feet of torque that's gets sent to the rear wheels, while a 96-kilowatt electric motor doles out 131 hp and 184 lb-ft of maximum torque to the fronts. Total system output of 362 hp and 420 lb-ft allows the i8 to sprint to 62 miles per hour in 4.4 seconds with all-wheels-driven handling, and it still returns an astonishing 94 miles per gallon US.
Lil Wayne's daughter gifted Ferrari GTO, BMW X4 for 16th birthday [w/video]
Thu, Dec 4 2014It must be nice to have ludicrously rich parents. Rapper Lil' Wayne's daughter Reginae recently celebrated her 16th birthday with a huge party in Atlanta. Where many teens would be overjoyed just to get a family hand-me-down for a first car, the rapper's daughter got two brand-new vehicles – a BMW X4 and a Ferrari 599 GTO. The X4 would certainly be extravagant by itself, but it's not totally without precedent. Anyone who watched even a snippet of MTV's old show My Super Sweet 16, probably saw a few vehicles that were just as expensive. However, the concept of any newly licensed teen behind the wheel of a Ferrari is absolutely terrifying to us. This one is even crazier, with 661 horsepower and a chassis capable of lapping Ferrari's Fiorano test track quicker than an Enzo. Of course, with just 599 built, Reginae could probably just park the coupe and let it appreciate enough to finance her next big party. The BMW is reportedly going to be her daily driver, anyway. According to TMZ, Reginae's mother and stepfather bought her the Ferrari with Lil' Wayne's blessing. They believe their daughter can handle the 599 GTO, which shows some serious – if misguided – trust. Check out the video below to see the cars and her party.

Recharge Wrap-up: Renault-Nissan at COP22, BMW launches Cruise e-Bike
Thu, Oct 6 2016The Renault-Nissan Alliance has been chosen to provide a fleet of electric cars for the UN's COP22 Climate Conference in Marrakesh, Morocco. The group will provide 50 passenger EVs – the Renault Zoe, Nissan Leaf, and Nissan e-NV200 – to shuttle delegates to and from conference venues. The Alliance will also provide more than 20 charging stations to support the shuttle fleet. The group provided electric shuttles for the historic COP21 summit in Paris last year. Read more from Renault-Nissan. FCA, Iveco, and gas grid company Snam have signed an agreement to boost natural gas as a cleaner alternative fuel for Italy. Under the Memorandum of Understanding, FCA and Iveco will work together to develop CNG vehicles, while Snam will invest in CNG supply facilities like filling stations to support a growing fleet. Italy leads Europe in the amount of natural gas consumed for transport, with 1 million vehicles currently on the road. Read more at Green Car Congress. LG Chem has officially announced it will build a battery plant in Poland to the tune of about $340 million. Located near Wroclaw in southwestern Poland, the plant is expected to produce 100,000 batteries a year for 200-mile EVs beginning in 2019. The plant could help Poland in its goal to reduce pollution by introducing a million EVs on its roads by 2025. "We will turn the Poland EV battery plant into a mecca of battery production for electric vehicles around the world," says UB Lee, President of LG Chem's Energy Solution Company. Construction begins in the second half of 2017. Read more from Automotive News Europe. BMW has introduced the Cruise e-Bike. Its Bosch Performance Line electric motor provides electric assistance at speeds of up to 15 mph. The battery can be either be removed or remain on the bike for charging, which takes 3.5 hours for a full charge. "BMW aims to be the leading provider of premium mobility services, and our bicycle collection furthers that mission," says BMW Accessory and Lifestyle Manager Eric Riehle. "As we enter the holiday season, these bikes make the perfect present for those wishing for their first BMW." The BMW Cruise e-Bike costs $3,430. Read more from BMW.
