This 2004 BMW X 3 is definitely a rare bird it is manual transmission .This is a one owner dealer serviced vehicle with a clean car fax. For those of you BMW enthusiast that just cant get enough this one is fun to drive and it has plenty of get up and go even for a 2.5 engine. As you can judge by the mileage its previous owner really enjoyed driving her . I can give you a walk through describing this vehicle lets start from the ground up. First we start out with 4 almost new Michelin tires these tires are in super nice condition . The brakes seem to have been replaced recently there is plenty of pad left and no pulsation and they stop great . As for suspension everything looks and feels to be nice and tight and she handles like a baby carriage . The engine runs great, nice and smooth and no warning lights what so ever. The transmission and clutch also check out fine the clutch is smooth and nice and low and the trans shifts like butter . I think I have covered all the running gear so far. Now to overall vehicle condition The interior is very clean and shows very little wear for a vehicle with this many miles all options work with one exception ,the rear sun roof does not close completely all but 1/2 " in the rear. I am not sure what is causing it, it me be as simple as being out of adjustment. Other than that everything else works perfect . As for the exterior of the vehicle for the most part the body and paint are excellent there are a couple of your typical parking lot dings that are barely noticeable other than in the right sun light. The only other blemish is in the drivers side front fender it seems to be a small stain from bird droppings that may have been left in the sun to long and it has left a mark . As for any black automobile there are some very light car wash brush type fine swirl marks but again for a vehicle with this many miles it is super nice . Some marks are to be expected . Overall this vehicle is very very nice you will be impressed with its look and driving performance . Please call 617-799-6391 for any questions

BMW offers xDrive on 2015 2 Series
Fri, 06 Jun 2014BMW has released its mile-long list of model changes for 2015. It's mostly comprised of tiny tweaks to options packages, pricing or trim colors, but there are a few interesting new features in there too. One thing all buyers will notice is that as of July 1, the company's destination charge increases by $25, to $950 for all of its models.
The 2 Series gets two really useful upgrades for 2015. We already knew that BMW's xDrive all-wheel drive system would be offered on the M235i this summer. However, it won't be the only 2 capable of spinning all four wheels. The 228i model will also be available with the system for $34,850 (after destination), $1,800 more than the standard model.
The other big addition brings a sportier ride to the 228i (with or without xDrive) for those who don't want to spring for the M235i. BMW is adding a Track Handling Package (pictured above) that lowers the suspension 10mm and includes the Adaptive M Suspension, Variable Sport Steering, M Sport Brakes and 18-inch wheels with Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires. It's available on manual or automatic models at $1,600 for cars ordered with the M Sport or Sport Line trims or $2,200 without it.
BMW offers M Performance Power Kit for 2012 335i sedan
Thu, 28 Mar 2013BMW has let loose a new M Performance Power Kit for its F30-generation 335i and 335i xDrive sedans. Starting at $1,100 for the kit - installation is extra - your car will be fitted with a new ECU and air intake on the functional side and an M Performance engine cover and rocker panel stickers on the decorative side. The Power Kit raises the 3.0-liter inline six-cylinder's horsepower rating from 300 to 320, and on automatic models, torque gets a boost from 300 pound-feet to 332 lb-ft - manual transmission models get a smaller bump to 317 lb-ft.
According to the Bavarian automaker, you'll be able to hear the change in the overrun exhaust note, and 0-60 mile-per-hour times drop by 0.2 seconds. The package is available now at all BMW Centers in the US, and if you get it installed when you purchase the car new, it will get the same four-year, 50,000-mile warranty as the vehicle. Have it done after the fact and the kit will be warranted for two years and unlimited miles. There's a press release below with some more details.
Consumer Reports says these are the worst new cars of 2014
Thu, 27 Feb 2014Consumer Reports has announced its annual list of worst vehicles, a cringe-inducing contrast to its list of top vehicles. Ignominiously leading the way in 2014 is Chrysler, which has a staggering seven models listed.
Jeep nearly sweeps the small SUV segment by itself, with its Compass, Patriot and 2.4-liter version of the new Cherokee, while the only midsize sedans listed by CR were the Chrysler 200 and Dodge Avenger. The new Dodge Dart and the Dodge Journey round out CR's condemnation of Chrysler.
Ford is taking heat as well, with the Taurus, Edge and their counterparts from Lincoln all listed as the worst vehicles in their respective segments. Toyota doesn't fare much better, with its Lexus IS, Scion iQ and tC also making the list.
