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. ...

LET ME BEGIN BY SAYING I OFFER ANY BUYER THE RIGHT TO INSPECT THE CAR OR ARRANGE TO HAVE THE CAR INSPECTED WITH THE OPTION TO CANCEL THE SALE. OF COURSE THE DEPOSIT WILL BE REFUNDED IF THIS OPTION IS TAKEN. I CANNOT OFFER ANY WARRANTY OR GUARANTEES BUT I AM SUPREMELY CONFIDENT THAT ANY BUYER OR INSPECTOR WILL FIND THIS BMW TO BE A SOLID VALUE.

The motor is smooth, no smoking, no lack of the performance expected from a BMW. The automatic transmission shifts without any hesitation. On the road at any speed...from 35 to 95 on the open California roads the car tracks straight and true. The leather interior is in excellent condition. I have looked at cars on dealer lots selling for the full value of $16,000 that were not really any better. Needless-to-say, the is no rust issues with this car. Furthermore, the paint has a great shine to it and there is none of the all too common California sun bleaching of the paint either. This is simply a great looking and very good running BMW X5. It is not "perfect" as those cars do exist but sell for $15,000 and more. The rear view camera tied into the in-dash DVD playing head unit is not coming through. With the mileage within 5000 miles of 100,000 miles a repetitive Service engine soon light comes on. However, the OBD 2 system shows no codes of any kind. I was told this is common to car companies as a means to get people into the dealership to try to sell any service a customer might be willing to pay for....from wiper blades, to cabin air filters, oil changes, etc, etc.

In addition to the extensive list of BMW luxury appointments the car has authentic BMW 20" 7spoke alloys and Xl/speed rated tires. They are 275x40x20 in front and 345x35x20 in the rear. About 70-75% tread left too. The cost for these was over $4000! YOU WILL ALSO GET the quite pricey BMW upgraded running boards which make any X5 look better and are functional to have. YOU WILL ALSO ENJOY the top-of-line Pioneer DVD in dash audio/video system with dual high power amps expertly installed out of sight in the side panels and twin 10"subs in a custom enclosure. Minimum space is lost in order to gain a video and sound system vastly superior to a stock setup. These upgrades cost over $7000.

WHETHER THE BUYER IS LOCAL OR OUT OF STATE I OFFER A GUARANTEED RIGHT OF INSPECTION. I GUARANTEE TO REFUND THE DEPOSIT THAT MAY HAVE BEEN MADE INTO PAY PAL IF UPON INSPECTION BY THE BUYER OR ANYONE ACTING ON BEHALF OF THE BUYER, THE CAR DOES NOT MEET EXPECTATIONS THE SALE CAN BE CANCELLED. THIS INSPECTION MUST TAKE PLACE WITHIN 7 DAYS OR THE BALANCE OF PAYMENT WILL BE DUE AND THE DEPOSIT WILL NO LONGER BE REFUNDABLE. I CANNOT BE ANY MORE FAIR. NOT MANY SELLERS ARE THIS CONFIDENT IN THEIR VEHICLE OR THIS FLEXIBLE.

This car has current California registration and smog. I need to point out however that it has a California salvage title. BUT BEFORE ANYONE PANICS THEY SHOULD KNOW WHAT THAT SCARY SOUNDING SALVAGE TITLE REALLY MEANS. BEFORE YOU PANIC LEARN THE FACTS. Four years ago and 35,000 miles back this car was indeed hit. Oh my! Is the darn steering wheel going to come off in your hands or the motor fall out at the first bump? ABSOLUTELY NOT! The reality is before a car, that was hit, regardless of how minor or severely, can get a salvage title it must first be inspected by the state inspectors. If there is any questions about the safety, the braking systems and such it will not be granted a salvage title and will not be able to be sold. WELL, THIS CAR HAS PASSED NUMEROUS STATE SAFETY INSPECTIONS AND PASSED SMOG INSPECTIONS RIGHT UP TO NOW WHERE THE REGISTRATION AND SMOG ARE CURRENT. Furthermore, since all all panels, doors, windows, etc, etc, are aligned so nicely, and there are no rattles or squeaks, and the body and paint look so good, the quality of whatever repairs it needed were no doubt, had to be, done by very skilled technicians. Salvage titled cars can be disappointments. NOT because the steering wheels fall off or the motors fall from the frames. The problems with salvage titles lies with the quality and dedication of those people putting on the fenders and such. IF FIXED WELL, THERE IS NO REASON WHY A "SALVAGE TITLED" CAR IS ANY LESS WORTHY THAN ANY OTHER CAR. In fact, many a car, damaged pretty bad...but just under the monetary threshold insurance companies use to classify a car as repairable or not worth bothering with,(which begets a salvage title scenario) retain "Clear title" but are LESS roadworthy than a STATE INSPECTED SALVAGE TITLED CAR. Thus, a Salvage title does not mean you need to panic. ALL THIS FINE INFORMATION IS RIGHT OFF THE INTERNET SO DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH.

THE BOTTOM LINE IS I AM GOING TO SELL THIS CAR FOR WHAT CAR FAX SUGGESTS AND ADD IN THE $7000 IN UPGRADES MAKING THIS AN ABSOLUTE NO-BRAINER.

BMW reveals i8 Concours d'Elegance Edition ahead of Pebble Beach

Mon, 11 Aug 2014

If you want to be among the first owners in the United States of the new BMW i8, the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance will be the place to be next Saturday. That's where Gooding & Company will auction off this one-of-a-kind hybrid supercar.
The BMW i8 Concours d'Elegance Edition was previously slated to be the very first i8 in North America, but has now apparently been downgraded to the guarantee of being among the firsts. In any event, it packs a series of special touches to make it unique. For starters, it's decked out in matte grey with unique brown leather upholstery, blue accents and Pure Impulse Tera World trim, with BMW i8 logos embossed into the headrests, special treat plates and the signatures of several key BMW personnel on the rear parcel shelf.
Pending government approval, it's set to be the first vehicle in the US fitted with laser headlights, and comes equipped with a special key, Louis Vuitton luggage and a "professional edition" BMW Charging Station. Scope out all the details in the press release below and take a closer look in the gallery above.

BMW 6 Series Convertible gets a little work done for 2015

Sat, 02 Aug 2014

Truth be told, I've never really found the modern BMW 6 Series to be a particularly attractive car, in Coupe, Convertible, or sedan Gran Coupe forms. This current generation certainly looks a whole lot better than the Bangle-fied Six that came before it to my eyes, but on the whole, I find much of the car's design to be fussy and awkward. There's a new 6 Series on the way, scheduled to arrive sometime in 2017 or 2018, but to hold us over until then, BMW is freshening its current range, as evidenced by this convertible prototype our trusty spies recently caught testing.
Will the changes to the current 6 Series be an improvement? Perhaps. Up front, there are restyled headlamps and a new front bumper, and at the rear, BMW has redesigned the LED taillamps to bring them more in line with the rest of the company's offerings. Aside from those modest tweaks, we don't expect much more to change on the Big Six - the interior will likely carry over with some minor tweaks (or new colors), and it's possible the powertrains could be massaged gently for gains in either power, efficiency, or both.
Whether you think this new look is pretty or not, this freshened 6 Series will likely debut sometime next year, while BMW's engineers and designers craft the all-new version. See it from several angles in our gallery, above.

Forget about greenlighting it, BMW is already testing the M2

Thu, 08 May 2014

One week ago, we reported, with some skepticism, that BMW had greenlit a car we've been waiting for since the 1 Series M Coupe was discontinued - the M2. Now, we have the first images of that new hotshot underoing testing in Germany.
What's our reasoning here? After all, this just looks like an M235i. Well, that camo is disguising swollen fenders designed to conceal wider tires. Now, these aren't production changes, and it's very likely that the eventual M2's fenders will look quite a bit different. According to our spy, the front fenders have been borrowed from the M235i Racing, while the rears are from an unknown source.
Our spies are also quick to point out a few other high-performance items on this mule. The cross-drilled brakes and blue M calipers are one such item, although we aren't sure how much they differ from the optional stoppers on the production M235i. The black wheels are borrowed from the M3 and M4, and are shod in what look like a sticky set of Michelin tires.
