This is a silver, 5 speed automatic transmission, 4.4 liter V8 BMW 540i (E39 model) with gray leather interior. It is model year 2000 with the sport package (19 inch alloy wheels, sport suspension, tiptronic transmission (allows manual style shifting), additional supports in the front seats, sunroof). It has 121,000 miles.

Mechanically, the car is great. It's fast and runs smoothly and without any issues. Recently I had the motor mounts and the driveshaft replaced. I have extensive records for it and bought it from my parents who bought it new in 2000. Everything (mechanical, electric, and electronic) functions as it should, including the cruise control, A/C, and onboard computer. It is mechanically sound. Oil changes and other regular maintenance have been done consistently and on time.

It gets about 19 mpg in the city, about 24 mpg on the highway.

The car is in really good cosmetic condition: no rust, only the regular minor issues that come from 13 years on the road, like small paint chips on the hood.

There are no aftermarket modifications.

I am the second owner; the first owners were my parents.

KBB says this car, in good condition, is worth $7300 on the private market. Mechanically, this car is excellent but it does have a couple of cosmetic issues (listed above). It will not give a new owner and trouble. I want to sell this car quickly.

It is a terrific, clean car driven by non-smokers.

This 1966 BMW 1600 Neue Klasse lives on the backroads

Thu, Mar 3 2016

Among early BMWs, the 2002 gets a lot of love for being a relatively accessible, great-handling little sports coupe. Jim Huff explains in the latest episode of Petrolicious why the slightly earlier BMW 1600 Neue Klasse sedan also offers a fantastic drive – especially with some choice modifications. Huff was a fan of 2002s until his wife gave him a vintage BMW sedan model car as a gift. That toy sparked his interest in the Bavarian automaker's earlier four-door models, and he had to have one to drive. He eventually tracked down his 1966 1600 and started on a project to convert it into a great vehicle for blasting over California's backroads. Huff's 1600 still features the original classic lines, but his now includes a larger 2.0-liter engine with Weber carbs, an upgraded suspension, and improved brakes. As a result of the tuning, the vintage BMW can hang with Huff's buddies in Alfa Romeos and Porsches on curvy roads. It sounds fantastic, too. Petrolicous interviews Huff, and he discusses a little about the history of these sedans. The real highlight is seeing and hearing his BMW in motion, though. Enjoy the ride with him in this video.

BMW rolls out new M4 safety car for DTM

Mon, 05 May 2014

Ever since revealing the M4 on nearly five months ago, BMW has been hard at work getting its new muscle coupe out on the track. It's made a touring-car version to compete in DTM and a safety car to set the pace at MotoGP races, and now it's combined both into a new safety car for DTM as well.
The ninth M4 on the DTM grid is based on the production version, but fitted with numerous upgrades over the course of a two-month conversion process. For starters, it's been equipped with nearly exterior component from the M Performance Parts catalog, including the quad-tipped exhaust, front splitter, rear spoiler and diffuser, blacked-out grille, special mirror caps, side sills... the works. But that's not the end of the story.
BMW M GmbH also gutted the interior, removing the rear bench and replacing it with a roll cage. It's got a pair of Recaro racing buckets with Schroth harnesses, plus special LED emergency lighting, radio communication system and, of course, special livery (albeit nowhere near as cool as the MotoGP one) to distinguish it as the official safety car when it makes its debut at the Nürburgring on August 17.
