2010 - Bmw X5 on 2040-cars
Buffalo Grove, Illinois, United States
Up for sale is my wife's 2010 BMW X5M. We are selling it to make room for her 2014 RR Supercharged Sport that is due to arrive in 2 weeks (we needed a third row). I did not like the offer they gave me on trade-in. I would love to keep it but we have 5 cars (I am also selling our 2006 Mini Cooper S with 20k miles). It is finished in beautiful Carbon Black Metallic (Dark blue with black flake) and has the Black Merino interior with black piano wood finishing. This is the best of both worlds. It is a true sports car (555 horsepower and 0-60 in 4.2 seconds) and a functional SUV with all wheel drive! This has the same engine as the new BMW M5. It is like having an all wheel drive awd BMW M5 that can fit 5 people and their gear!! It is perfect in all types of weather. This was $100,000 new! Why pay $20K more for a Cayenne Turbo!?!? We bought it as a BMW Certified Pre-owned vehicle from Motorwerks BMW in Minneapolis. We traded in her 2009 X5 4.8; what a big difference! There is a reason why the X5M is more $$ than a regular X5! BMW is very strict with their certification and this X5M passed with flying colors. It has the CPO warranty till 8/31/2015 or 100,000 miles which is fully transferable to the new owner. This is another 19 months of worry free warranty that is good at any BMW dealership and has roadside assistance! You can buy an additional extended warranty from BMW, I believe it is ~$1,800 for another year (8/2016). This is one of the most comfortable cars we have owned. We drove it from Illinois to Virginia and back. It made 18-20 mpg on the highway. The seats were amazing and ride quality was excellent! It currently has 48,700 miles. It is in amazing condition in and out. My wife is a physician and parks it in a heated garage at work and home. We have no children... yet, and we are non smokers. It is washed weekly and detailed every 3 months. Options: Cold weather package Premium sound package Power tailgate Comfort access Panoramic moonroof Lumbar support Voice command Satellite radio Real Time Traffic Driver Assistance package High gloss roof rails BMW assist with Bluetooth Privacy glass HUD Side/Rear cameras Front/Rear Heated Seats Heated Steering Wheel Navigation 6 Disk CD Changer with hard drive USB/AUX/ipod Audio inputs 4 zone climate control park distance sensors tire pressure monitor auto dimming mirrors power folding mirrors high beam assist rain sensing wipers Adaptive Xenon headlights Launch control- only available on the X5M ! I have all the service records, manuals, keys, rear cargo cover, carfax. See the attached Carfax Buyback Guarantee! The previous owner is a lawyer from Minneapolis and is also an auto enthusiast. He traded it on a new Alpina B7. The carfax shows an accident 11-2010. I confirmed this with Motorwerks BMW and the previous owner. It was due to icy conditions and the X5M slid into the car in front of it and scraped the left side of the front bumper. It was reported due to the other vehicle having a cracked bumper cover . The X5M only suffered scratches and nothing had to be replaced! It did have the front bumper repainted by the Motorwerks body shop and it matches 100%. It also comes with the BMW carpet floor mats and BMW all weather mats. I also have a custom weathertech rear cargo mat that goes with the car. It has the upgraded white LED headlight Halos (2012+ style) and M emblems on the side and front of the vehicle. No other modifications. At 42,000 miles it had new Bridgestone Run Flats put on. 90% tread left! At 43,000 miles it received new pads and rotors. 90 % life left! 50,000 mile service and oil/filter change performed last month. It needs nothing but a new owner. Remember, this is not a dealer auction car. This our personal vehicle with ALL the history records. It also comes with all the accessories, not a stripped down auction car! The certified warranty is $$$ !

Forza Motorsport profiles courageous paralyzed racer
Fri, 08 Aug 2014It's easy to look at racing video games as just a time waster or a hobby. In reality, though, they're often powerful tools for aspiring racers to learn tracks, race craft and how to set up a car in an easily accessible, risk-free environment. We aren't just talking about proper computer-based sims, like iRacing. Console-based racers like Forza Motorsport and Gran Turismo provide a test bed for racers of all sorts.
For Mario Bonfante, Jr., a former motorcycle racer that was involved in a brutal accident that left him in a wheelchair with only limited use of his arms, Forza is a bit more. It allows him to perfect the setup of his personal racecar, a heavily modified E46 BMW M3, complete with hand controls.
Check out Mario's inspiring story.
BMW i3 wins 2015 Green Car of the Year award
Thu, Nov 20 2014The popular little BMW i3 (popular in the US, at least) was named the 2015 Green Car of the Year at the Los Angeles Auto Show today. The award doesn't just take into account a car's green credentials but also its "availability to the mass market." While the i3 is a bit expensive, starting at $41,350, it is becoming available at BMW dealers across the country, which cannot be said about a lot of other new plug-in vehicles released these past few years. The other finalists this year were the CNG-powered Chevy Impala Bi-Fuel, the Audi A3 TDI, the Honda Fit and the VW Golf. The BMW i3 with range extender gets a fuel economy rating of 117 MPGe and 39 miles per gallon (in gas mode) with a 72-mile EV range. The EV-only version gets 124 MPGe combined (137 in the city and 111 on the highway) and has an EV range of 81 miles. Green Car Journal has handed out the award every year for ten years now, naming the Honda Accord Hybrid/Plug-In Hybrid the winner last year, the Ford Fusion models (plug-in hybrid and hybrid) in 2013, the Honda Civic Natural Gas in 2012 and the Chevrolet Volt in 2011. BMW i3 NAMED GREEN CAR JOURNAL'S 2015 GREEN CAR OF THE YEAR" Milestone Carbon Fiber Electric Car Wins the Auto Industry's Most Important Environmental Award at Los Angeles Auto Show LOS ANGELES, CA (November 20, 2014) – BMW's i3, an innovative electric car built with a lightweight carbon fiber passenger cell and an aluminum drive module, has been named Green Car Journal's 2015 Green Car of the Year®, which was announced at the LA Auto Show. Green Car of the Year® finalists also included the Audi A3 TDI, Chevrolet Impala Bi-Fuel, Honda Fit, and VW Golf. The Green Car of the Year® award is an honor widely recognized as the auto industry's most important environmental accolade. Green Car Journal, the leading voice in the intersection of automobiles, energy, and the environment since the publication's launch in 1992, celebrates the high-profile award's 10th anniversary at the L.A. Auto Show this year. "BMW's i3 is a milestone vehicle in many respects and illustrates the automaker's expansive vision of future motoring," said Ron Cogan, editor and publisher of Green Car Journal and CarsOfChange.com.
2014 BMW 4 Series Coupe officially debuts, priced from $41,425*
Fri, 14 Jun 2013Well, that didn't take long. Less than two hours after the first images of the 2014 BMW 4 Series Coupe leaked onto the Internet, we've been given the go-ahead to publish the whole kit and caboodle. And while we won't say we told you so, it looks as though the car's official details are standing true to our earlier predictions.
In other words, BMW will offer the 4 Series in 428i and 435i models, both of which can be had with xDrive all-wheel drive. Just like in the 3 Series, the 428i is powered by a 2.0-liter turbocharged inline four-cylinder engine, good for 240 horsepower and 255 pound-feet of torque, and the 435i gets BMW's turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-six making 300 hp and 300 lb-ft. In three of the four models, both a six-speed manual and eight-speed automatic transmission are available; the 428i xDrive can only be had with the auto 'box. The 428i (with rear-wheel drive, we assume) can hit 60 miles per hour in 5.7 seconds (though BMW doesn't specify with which transmission), and the 435i will do that same sprint in 5.3 seconds with the manual and five seconds flat with the eight-speed auto.
We've already dissected the 4 Series' visuals, but the numbers show just how different it is from the 3 Series sedan. The 4 Coupe is one-tenth of an inch longer overall, while riding on the same 110.6-inch wheelbase, is 0.6 inches wider, and has a roofline that's a full 2.7 inches closer to the ground. It looks sleek, incorporating BMW's new design language from the 3 Series with an overall profile that's similar to the larger 6 Series coupe.
