When it comes to finding a great sport sedan, the automotive market is like a massive haystack.  With this truth, it is very difficult to find a needle in the mass of look-alikes, wannabes, and distractions.  So, with so many options is it even worth finding the one real golden needle among all the strands of hay?  Of course!  Moreover, fortunately for you, your search through the stack has finally paid off in finding that needle!  Your new Carbon Black Metallic 2008 BMW 550i with Navigation, M Sport Package, Comfort Access System, Rear Sunshades, Active Steering, Active Cruise Control, Lane Departure Warning, Logic 7 Sound, IR camera, and Satellite Radio is truly a rare gem.  Its vast array of unique options set it apart from not only other brands on the road, but even from its other 550i brethren.  From its rare black headliner to its enviable active cruise control, this is just the car to separate you from other cars on the road and their drivers.  You will be a standout not just because of your beautiful car, but also because of how much you saved buying wholesale.  Let us see just how spectacular your new 550i is!

 

EXTERIOR: Your 550i looks great clothed in CARBON BLACK METALLIC paint.  At a quick glance, the color looks like a shimmering black, but with closer inspection, you can see gorgeous dark blue undertones.  Under the hood of your new BMW, you will find the 550i's claim to fame: a 4.8L DOHC V8 engine with 360 horsepower and 360 lb-ft of torque.  You will love the sound of the roaring engine with each press of the gas pedal.  Despite all that ability, your BMW still gets a remarkable 22 highway MPG!  As part of the M sport package, upgraded 19" M sport wheels are wrapped in Bridgestone Potenza tires (in excellent shape) look great on the car.

 

INTERIOR: The outside of your car is incredibly remarkable, but what about inside?  The interior is outfitted in clean black upholstery complemented by bamboo wood trim and rare black headliner.  The 20-way power sport front multi-contour bucket seats feel comfortable and and can be adjusted to fit you perfectly.  To ensure that everyone in the vehicle will be comfortable, there is tri-zone automatic climate control with auto air circulation and other great functions.  One of the nicest features of the vehicle is the BMW iDrive system with on-board computer.  With the built-in factory navigation system, you can easy get turn-by-turn directions to just about any destination.  Also housed in this unit are on-screen visual controls for the climate, car options, and entertainment.  The upgraded Logic 7 BMW stereo with graphic equalizer includes AM/FM/Satellite radio stereo with CD player and changer and MP3 capabilities sounds great through the ten speakers and two subwoofers.  The Lane Departure Warning system is activated with just the push of a button on your steering wheel.  As you drive, the car will monitor your driving and the steering wheel will vibrate to let you know if you begin to drift from your lane.  This is a great safety feature, especially on longer trips.  You will love utilizing the Comfort Access System for keyless entry and start.  The car will detect the key in your pocket or purse and allow you to enter the car and start it without ever taking out the key!

 

In addition, your BMW Night Vision provides a new dimension of optical perception when driving at night.  A thermal imaging camera detects human beings, animals, and objects in front of the car before they become visible to the human eye in the headlights.  The image generated by the system is trans­mitted to the central Control Display within the car presenting objects detected with increasing brightness as a function of the heat detected by the camera -- and therefore making human beings and animals particularly conspicuous.

 

The thermal imaging camera covers a range of up to 300 metres or almost 1,000 feet ahead of the car.  BMW Night Vision therefore offers the customer particular benefits when driving over land, down narrow lanes, through gateways leading into courtyards, and into dark under­ground garages, significantly enhancing driving safety at night.

Takata air bag recall list

Tue, Dec 9 2014

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration confirmed yesterday that 33.8 million vehicles with Takata airbags are going to be recalled. It's the largest recall in automotive history. The already record-breaking rate of automotive recalls this year shows no signs of slowing down, especially since millions of cars with defective airbags made by global supplier Takata are under ongoing scrutiny. The federal government is warning owners that inflator mechanisms in the air bags can rupture, causing metal fragments to fly out when the bags are deployed. The faulty air bags have already been blamed for multiple deaths. How do you know if your vehicle is safe? The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration released an updated list of vehicles under recall. Sometimes however, the government's website will crash and the list may not be complete. Check your VIN at the NHTSA website to make sure. The list of cars affected by the recall has not been released, but seem to span multiple models over the years for many of the automakers.

2014 BMW X5 doesn't upset the formula

Wed, 29 May 2013

BMW has unveiled the 2014 X5, and fans of the company's CUV will find plenty familiar in the machine. The biggest change to the recipe comes in the form of the X5 sDrive35i, which is the first rear-wheel drive version of the high-riding five-door to date. Buyers will, of course, continue to be able to opt for all-wheel drive, and both models will get their thrust from a 3.0-liter, turbocharged inline six-cylinder engine. That powerplant makes 300 horsepower and 300 pound-feet of torque and is mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission. BMW says the combination is good enough to get the SUV to 60 miles per hour in around 6.2 seconds.
Those who require more thrust can step up to the more potent X5 xDrive50i with its twin-turbo 4.4-liter V8 engine. Drivers get to enjoy an extra 45 hp over the previous model, with final output up to 445 hp and 480 lb-ft of torque. Paired with an eight-speed automatic of its own, the engine can hustle the big X5 to 60 mph in 4.9 seconds.
The 2014 BMW xDrive35d continues to offer diesel power, though output has dropped 10 horsepower to 255 hp and 413 lb-ft of torque. Even so, BMW says the X5 diesel will be just as quick or quicker than the 2013 model. You can check out the full press release below for more information.

BMW-Toyota joint sports car project is on like Donkey Kong

Mon, 30 Dec 2013

It's official - there will be a jointly developed sports car from BMW and Toyota. While the two auto giants signed a Memorandum of Understanding that pledged to pursue "joint development of architecture and components for a future sports vehicle" back in June of 2012, in the interim, it has remained unclear how those plans had been progressing. BMW has finally officially confirmed that the German and Japanese manufacturers will be codeveloping a pair of sports cars in addition to pursuing other disciplines including fuel cell systems and lightweight technologies.
"We have agreed on a joint architecture for a sports car. What is important is that there will be two different vehicles that are authentic to the two brands," BMW Development Chief Herbert Diess told Germany's Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, Reuters is reporting. This is a very, very big step for both brands, but now the speculation can officially begin as to what the products of this agreement will look like.
There's ample reason to believe that the BMW-Toyota tie up will result in a Supra successor based on comments made by the chief engineer of the GT86/FR-S program, Tatsuya Tada, back in August. Follow that with a rumor from earlier this month that Toyota could debut a Supra concept car at the upcoming Detroit Auto Show later this month, and we could be seeing the fruits of this partnership sooner rather than later.
