540i E39 with the M sports package and manual transmission is one of the best BMW's ever made, fun to drive, smooth quiet on the highway and also like a sports car when driving on back roads, The M Sport package has lowered ride height, stiffer swaybars, sports seats, 17" M wheels. The manual is a lot faster then the automatic. Amazing condition for the year and mileage. Look feels and drives like 52kmi. Much nicer then some cars with half the mileage, Driver side bolsters still tight, no rips or cracks in the leather, I have conditioned the leather every three months, Only used Mobil1 and BMW factory oil filter since I have owned it, In the last 5 years all normal 540i issues taken care off, new radiator, new overflow tank, new water pump, new upper radiator hose, new electric fan, new lower dash segment to fix missing pixels, new front lower control arms, new upper control arm bushings, new cam pos. sensors,new EVAP purge valve, No warning light or missing pixels anywhere, plus a few selective enhancements, cross drilled rotors, M5 front bumper with modified under tray, hood painted at the same time to fix rock chips, rear spoiler, black front grills, this with the bright red paint makes it look great, gets lots of positive comments.

A few minor defects such as a couple of very small dings, too small to show up in pictures, a few small scratches on the bumpers and a small crack under the front bumper, a couple of minor paint defects, clear coat on the rear spoiler is peeling.

New tires with less then 10kmi. Ready for the next 150k.

Researchers halfway to cutting carbon fiber costs by 90%

Wed, 15 Oct 2014

Carbon fiber has been utilized for decades to build racecars, as a means to cut weight while maintaining strength. But until recently, the space-age material has been largely absent from the street on anything but supercars because of the expense to use it. Recently, BMW signaled a major shift in that trend when it starting using carbon fiber reinforced plastic panels on the i3 and i8. This relatively small scale start might be just the beginning; the German company believes that a breakthrough to inexpensively manufacture the lightweight stuff is just on the horizon.
MAI Carbon Cluster Management GmbH counts BMW, Audi, Airbus, the German government and many other organizations as supporters, and it's researching how to make carbon fiber cheaper to produce, according to Automotive News Europe. The company thinks it can reduce costs by 90 percent in the near future. "We've certainly reached a halfway point on our cost-cutting target for suitable carbon-fiber parts," said project head Klaus Drechsler to Automotive News Europe.
Unfortunately, it isn't entirely clear just what MAI Carbon is doing to make such a huge leap possible. However, a recent post on the company's website talks about a new form a carbon fiber using a thermoplastic matrix that could be cured in less than three minutes. That's compared to about 90 minutes in the traditional process with an autoclave.

BMW makes X7 in Spartanburg official

Fri, 28 Mar 2014

BMW has made it official - there will be a flagship crossover called X7, and it will be built right here in the US of A. The announcement was made today, confirming rumors of the new model at the Spartanburg, SC factory that broke earlier this week.
"Plant Spartanburg was built to enhance and expand the BMW lineup, underscoring the BMW Group commitment to the United States" said Dr. Norbert Reithofer, chairman of the BMW board of management in a statement. "In addition to the X3, X5, X6, and the new X4, we are today announcing another all-new, larger X model to be manufactured exclusively at this plant for our world markets: the X7."
BMW will spend $1 billion by 2016 upgrading its South Carolina factory, which already produces the X3, X5 and X6. The plant is currently capable of producing 300,000 units per year, but with the big investment from BMW, capacity will climb to 450,000 units. 800 jobs will be added as a result of the investment and new and upcoming models.
