2007 - Bmw 7-series on 2040-cars
Syracuse, New York, United States
Up for sale is my 2007 Alpina B7. I have owned the car for 2 years, and purchased it with 14k original miles. The vehicle now has 29k and is subject to minor change during the duration of the auction. The vehicle was a one owner car, traded-in and resold to me, although technically I consider myself to be the second owner. I have not a single issue with this car in two years of ownership. I changed the oil regularly, had the brakes flushed twice, cabin filters replaced, and installed new Continental tires 7k miles ago. I took this car on a 1600 mile round trip from NY to Chicago in August, and the car performed like a new car would. I rate the condition of this car to be excellent. There are a few small dings around the car that you would need to be a foot or less away to notice, two minor touch-up chips on the hood, and some curb rash on both passenger side wheel lips. Besides the minor details mentioned, the car is as new. For those unfamiliar with an Alpina B7: This car has the comfort, luxury, and reliability of a 7 Series BMW; paired with the exclusivity (800 produced for 07/08), beauty and power (500hp/516 ft. lb tq) of a 125k sedan. It is sleek, fast, beautiful, turns heads, and a total pleasure to drive, at a fraction of its original price. You can find one for less money, but I would recommend spending a little more money for peace of mind, and an awesome car. Why am I selling? I want a new one! I will probably purchase an AWD model and drive it year round. This model is RWD and I have never attempted a drive in the snow, although I heard with snow tires, it will perform well. This car gets parked from first snow fall- first rain in spring to wash away all salt encrusted roads. It is garage kept, and the undercarriage of this car is as clean as the photographs you see of the exterior and interior. *Photos were taken in the late spring, right before I replaced the original tires 7k miles ago. They were replaced due to age, not due to wear. Tires wear incredibly well on this car. It is amazing how perfectly balanced it is. These pictures are used because they show the car well, and the car looks exactly the same now as it did then. *One key is included with sale. I was given one key when I purchased the car, and never required an additional key. *

BMW 2 Series Coupe priced from $33,025* ahead of Detroit debut
Fri, 13 Dec 2013BMW is definitely going to have its hands full at next month's Detroit Auto Show. The big news might be the debut of the M3 and M4, which were previewed in our Deep Dive, but joining those performance cars under the bright lights will be the all-new 2015 BMW 2 Series Coupe.
While we already know most of the details about the 2 Series and its available M Performance parts, BMW has now announced that the Coupe will go on sale in the first quarter of next year with a starting price of $33,025 (*plus $925 for destination) for the base 228i. This price is about $1,500 more than the current 1 Series Coupe, which starts at $31,500, while the M235i's starting price of $44,025 is almost $500 more than the existing 135is Coupe. There is still no indication as to when we'll see 2 Series Convertible unveiled.
In addition to new M cars and the 2 Series, BMW's display will also reveal another new color-theme package for the Z4. Last year we saw the Hyper Orange package, and this year will give us the Ivory White Burnt Sienna Z4 available in an exclusive Sparkling Brown Metallic exterior paint color. Scroll down for the full press release of production vehicles BMW has planned to showcase at Detroit's Cobo Hall next month.
BMW brings first diesel 7 Series to US with $82,500* 740Ld xDrive
Fri, 24 Jan 2014After almost 40 years on the market, there are probably few things the BMW 7 Series hasn't offered, but when it comes to the US market, one of those things just happens to be a diesel engine. That is all about to change, however, as BMW announced that it will unveil the 2014 740Ld xDrive at the Chicago Auto Show before sales commence later in the spring.
Offered only on long-wheelbase models with standard all-wheel drive, the new diesel 7 is powered by BMW's 3.0-liter inline-six producing 255 horsepower and a stout 413 pound-feet of torque peaking between 1,500 and 3,000 rpm. While BMW has yet to release any type of fuel economy figures, it did say that its diesel technology is usually good for an improvement of 25 to 30 percent over the gas models - just for fun, that means that the 740 Ld xDrive could get as much as 24.7 miles per gallon in the city and 36.4 mpg on the highway, but that's just doing the math and there is nothing official behind those numbers. Acceleration will take a little longer than in the 740Li xDrive (shown above) with BMW stating 6.1 seconds from 0-60 compared to 5.4 seconds for the gas model.
Another small increase over the gas version will be in price, with the 740Ld xDrive getting a starting MSRP of $82,500 (*not including $925 for destination), which is just a $1,500 bump over the 740Li xDrive. For comparison, the Audi A8L TDI starts at $78,800, while the previous-gen Mercedes S350 Bluetec was priced at $93,000. Scroll down for more info on the new diesel-powered 7 Series, and stay tuned to our live coverage from Chicago in a couple weeks as we'll have live images and hopefully more info.
BMW rethinks all-wheel-drive M cars
Fri, 04 Oct 2013BMW M hasn't been able to decide whether it wants to jump on the all-wheel-drive bandwagon or not (with the exceptions of the X5 M and the X6 M, which are based on AWD architecture). That might be changing though, since M's president Friedrich Nitschke recently realized that 70 to 80 percent of Mercedes-Benz E63 AMGs are ordered with all-wheel drive. Earlier this year, Nitschke said that there were no new AWD M models planned, so this comes as somewhat of a surprise.
"On our cars we are thinking of all-wheel drive, but it won't come before we get the successor of the M5 and M6," Nitschke said in a Motoring report. "That's the timing and it's not practical to react in the current life cycles."
