This is a 2007 BMW X5 4.8L sports activity vehicle.  It has had one owner, which is now the seller of the vehicle.  The car is in Clean-to-Excellent condition.  It has 145,000 miles, the vast majority of which are highway miles logged through the course of business.  The car has been consistently and meticulously maintained, and all original features of the car are in working order.  The car received new brakes and tires in 2012.  In addition to the features listed, it comes with BMW all-weather floor mats, a BMW cargo liner for the rear area of the car, and BMW removable rooftop crossbars that fit across the mounting bars on top of the car.  The car does have receiver for a trailer hitch, although towing usage has been limited to a small trailer used for vacationing and a lightweight landscape trailer from time to time.  

I have used the web site edmunds.com to gauge the value of the car.  For a Clean vehicle with the features provided that web site suggests the car's trade in value would be $17.6k and its retail value would be $22k.  This should explain my rationale for target "buy it now" price.  

Features provided in the car are recapped here:
High performance 4.8L v8 engine.  Newer models offer a 4.4L v8 as part of the "M Sport" line of X5s.  The M Sport label was not offered in 2007 but I believe this is comparable.
Black exterior, tan leather interior with ventilated front seats.  Driver's seat provides massage motion in the seat, recommended for long commutes.  Seats are heated.
Heated steering wheel.
Navigation System.
Comfort access package - doors will lock or unlock if key in on your person.  Also, car will not allow key to be locked inside the vehicle - it will force locks open and indicate the key is inside the car.
Enhanced headlights with automatic redirection of the lights through a turn.  Fog lighting is also provided.
Panoramic Sunroof.
Power-retractable rear-view mirrors.
FM/AM/CD/Weather Band radio capability.  iPod or iPhone integration.
Bluetooth integration with phone.  Hands free capability integrated within the car.
Rear entertainment system with DVD player.
Navigation system with real time traffic provided.
Rear view camera.
Parking distance assist and warning system.
Automatic tire pressure monitor.

Voice command capability, enabled on the steering wheel.
Automatic headlight washer with heated washer fluid.
Power windows, power locks, child locks for rear windows controllable from driver's seat.
Downhill speed control for aggressive descents.
Integrate garage door opener.
XM radio unit has been installed by owner, and transfer of that unit is assumed with the sale of the car.  XM is controlled by this unit, and played through the central stereo system.

Rear door is NOT automatic.  It can be opened electronically from the driver's seat, but it must be lifted and closed manually.
This X5 does NOT have a third row of seats, although they are offered on some 2007 X5s.

NHTSA slaps BMW with $40M fine for slow Mini recall

Thu, Dec 24 2015

BMW is on the hook for a $40-million fine after the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration slapped the automaker over not recalling Minis that failed to meet minimum side-impact crash standards. The civil penalty from NHTSA concerns 2014 and 2015 Mini Cooper hatchback models that "failed a crash test designed to determine whether the vehicle met crash-protection minimums," the government agency said in a press release issued this week. An October 2014 test revealed the first problem, and the Mini was subsequently retested in July, only to fail again and finally prompt a recall of more than 30,000 cars. But according to NHTSA's investigation that was opened in October, BMW waited too long to issue a recall after it knew the cars did not meet standards and bring them into compliance with more energy-absorbing materials installed by Mini dealers. This is the second time NHTSA slapped BMW with a major penalty, following a $3-million fine back in 2012 failing to report recalls of its cars and motorcycles. "For the second time in three years, BMW has been penalized for failing to meet that obligation," NHTSA Administrator Mark Rosekind said in the release. "The company must take this opportunity to reform its procedures and its culture to put safety where it belongs: at the top of its priority list." In a separate release issued this week, BMW Group said it, "is committed to further improving its recall processes to better serve its customers," and that the company, "respects the role of NHTSA and looks forward to working with them to develop solutions for the future." National Highway Traffic Safety Administration fines BMW $40 million for failing to meet safety requirements Fine is auto company's second since 2012 WASHINGTON – The U.S. Department of Transportation's National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has imposed a $40 million civil penalty and a series of performance requirements to automaker BMW North America for a series of violations of the Motor Vehicle Safety Act and NHTSA regulations. Under terms of a Consent Order issued to BMW, the company acknowledges that it violated requirements to issue a timely recall of vehicles that did not comply with minimum crash protection standards, to notify owners of recalls in a timely fashion, and to provide accurate information about its recalls to NHTSA. NHTSA imposed a $3 million civil penalty to BMW in 2012 for similar violations.

2018 Range Rover Sport Coupe spied in Scotland

Wed, Jun 8 2016

Sport utility vehicles are the rage. SUVs with coupe styling are pretty popular, too, as BMW and Mercedes have demonstrated. Now it's Land Rover's turn. Believed to be the upcoming Range Rover Sport Coupe, this ute was spied this week during top secret testing at a remote location in Scotland. The vehicle would slot between the Range Rover Sport and Evoque, giving Land Rover an answer to the Mercedes GLE and BMW X6. These shots show what appears to be a chopped roofline, giving the new model a sportier profile than the traditional upright silhouette of Rovers. We expect it will use a version of the aluminum Jaguar F-Pace platform and offer V6 and V8 engines. It could also offer a hybrid or full electric version. The new crossover might also be lower set in a bid to differentiate it from traditional Rovers and give it a performance vibe. The Range Rover Sport Coupe – or whatever it is ultimately called – would enter a strong segment that's found favor in the United States. Once derided for potentially offering less function than traditional utes, these lifestyle vehicles have developed a strong following for their style and capability. The X6 was so successful, BMW added the smaller X4, and this forced Mercedes to follow suit with the GLE and GLC coupe variants. In this context, it's about time for Land Rover to join the fray.

Genesis cars win accolades, offer value — so why are sales so bad?

Tue, Jul 31 2018

My high-school buddy Brent Cormier was so smitten with the Genesis G80 when he saw it at an event I hosted at SXSW in 2016 he bought a used 2013 Hyundai Genesis a short time later and fell in love with the car. "It surpasses my every expectation," said Cormier, a self-described "renaissance man" who owns and runs a real estate agency with his wife Laura, is a food service executive chef and part owner of Austin-based Thin the Herd Guitars. "I was locked into Mercedes and Audi for 10 years," he added. "And felt trapped in an endless pit of maintenance costs." After owning the Genesis over the past two years — including using it as an Uber and Lyft driver to earn extra cash — Cormier learned what some frugal luxury sedan buyers and a handful of car reviewers have discovered: Genesis offers great bang for the buck compared to other premium brands and can compete with the best in terms of performance, features and comfort. Hyundai's luxury brand also earned a prominent third-party endorsement last week when for the first time Genesis topped J.D. Power's 2018 APEAL study, surpassing German luxury-performance icon Porsche. The APEAL study (which stands for Automotive Performance, Execution and Layout) "measures owners' emotional attachment and level of excitement across 77 attributes," ranging from performance to comfort, and asks nearly 68,000 owners of new 2018 models to score vehicles on a 1,000-point scale. In its second year ranked as a stand-alone brand, Genesis earned an APEAL score that bumped it up 15 points to 884 and helped push it past Porsche — and past BMW, Lincoln, Mercedes-Benz, Audi, Volvo, Cadillac, Land Rover and Lexus, in order of ranking. Last month, Genesis also topped J.D. Power's Initial Quality Survey (IQS) for the first time this year. And both its models were awarded Top Safety Pick Plus ratings by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, among 11 Plus ratings in all for Korean vehicles. Despite high J.D. Power rankings and great reviews, Genesis U.S. sales were off 50 percent for the first six months of 2018 compared to 2017, and in June Genesis sold only 796 vehicles — the first time U.S. numbers dropped below 1,000 in a month. Part of Genesis's APEAL and IQS success can be attributed to its small product lineup: just two models, the G80 and G90 sedans, with a third, the 2019 G70, launching later this year. And while those numbers may help in J.D.
