Beautiful 2001 540i with LOTS OF EXRAS!!! This is a beautiful example of a 2001 BMW 540i. My wife and I bought this for an around town cruiser for my wife and once the snow hit, she was afraid to drive something that wasnt AWD. We dont have room to keep it, otherwise it would stay... Exterior- The paint and body is in very good condition for a 13 year old car. The front has a few rock chips, but nothing excessive. The car has been clay bar cleaned and buffed to perfection, so the whole car is perfect smooth to the touch. It is a very straight body car, no damage. The windshield isnt cracked and all the other glass is perfect. The headlights have LED rings, and have HID bulbs. SUPER bright at night! The fog lights are SUPER bright and from an X5(I believe), The wheels on this car were powder coated(by previous owner) a very dark root beer brown. So dark, its almost like a metallic black. They are in perfect condition, no curb rash, no bends. The rear tires still have some life left(~5k miles) and the fronts are ready to be replaced. Interior- Overall, I rated the interior very good and that can be seen in person(and pics)! The leather on the seats, doors, armrest, and steering wheel have no cracks or tears. The power seats work great in all directions. The radio works and sounds great, has an original in dash 6 CD changer. It also has an iPod/iPhone(old style connector) connector for connection to your music. The display has a slight dark spot on the left side, but all numbers and letters are completely visible.

BMW rethinks all-wheel-drive M cars

Fri, 04 Oct 2013

BMW 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."

Even 'Ring taxi drivers need to respect the Green Hell

Wed, 06 Aug 2014

The Nürburgring Nordschleife has the reputation as one of the most difficult tracks in the world to master - deservedly so. With 14 miles of roadway and about 160 corners over a massive amount of elevation change, the amount of grip can change from turn to turn. As the driver of the famous BMW Ring Taxi learned this weekend after a shunt into the barricades, the 'Ring can bite unsuspecting pros just as easily as amateurs.
The video of the incident below shows the M5 oversteering right into the wall as a phalanx of Porsche models arrive behind it. According to Bridge to Gantry, a website that specializes in news about the 'Ring, the taxi's passengers were picked up by another Ring Taxi and driven off with a fantastic story to tell their friends back home. "The accident happened at low speed, there were two passengers in the car, but no one had at any injuries," said BMW spokesperson Cypselus von Frankenberg to Autoblog via email.
The crash also closed track for over an hour to clean up and to haul the stricken BMW away. When a driver making a living from driving lap after lap at the Nordschleife has a crash even as seemingly minor as this one, it just goes to show why the course has the nickname 'The Green Hell.'

BMW Vision Future Luxury Concept is bold and beautiful in Beijing

Sun, 20 Apr 2014

BMW officially unveiled the Vision Future Luxury Concept today (or is it tomorrow?) at the 2014 Beijing Motor Show, giving the world's media an in-the-flesh look at not only a future design theme for the brand, but a rumored flagship model.
This is a looker in person, thanks to its Pininfarina Gran Lusso Coupe-inspired design, and it's not too difficult to imagine it in production car form, with smaller wheels, larger mirrors and the other minor transformations that take place from drawing board, to auto show and, finally, to assembly line. In general, it seems like there are more than a few parts of this vehicle that are ready for production.
We didn't talk about it in our initial post, but it bears mentioning that this particular concept is wearing an eDrive badge on its backside, indicating that under the Vision Future Luxury's long hood is some form of plug-in-hybrid propulsion. It's anyone's guess as to what engine, battery and motor combinations BMW is playing with, although it does seem questionable whether BMW would launch a PHEV flagship to do battle with a top-rung variant of the Mercedes-Benz S-Class (which will likely use V12 power).
