For Sale is my immaculate 2006 BMW M5 V10 SMG.  This car has over 550 horsepower.  I bought this car in February of 2013.  It is fully loaded and in excellent condition.  I have invested about $7,000 in after market upgrades, cosmetic upgrades and general maintenance, still under an extended WARRANTY.  


This car has also always been garage kept and only driven on nice days.  This car needs absolutely nothing done to it.  I also have a documented used car inspection performed by Auto-Trader. I am the second owner of the car.  Since I have owned it I have fixed several things. When I first purchased the car from a dealership without a warranty I experienced some issues with it shortly after getting it home (hence why this car is a better deal than a car you will buy from a dealership). I had a BMW Master Technician replace the battery, alternator, electric fan and also add the under drive pulley, replaced both belt tensioners, installed new belts and new coolant.  Anyone who knows anything about this car can tell you that this is an enormous job that would have cost over $5,000 at a BMW dealership. 

The following has been done to this car since I have owned it:


New battery $500

New alternator $500

New electric fan $1,000

New Hood Struts $100

BMC Filters

RPI Scoops and block off plates $370

RPI Underdrive Pulley $455

(both belts replaced)

Tensioner Pulleys (2) $300

Blacked out Kidney Grills $150

Blacked out Side Vents $150

Blacked out BMW Emblems all the way around $150

Blacked out M5 Badge $75

Tinted Windows $300

Painted black brake calipers and rotors $100


20x10 rear Powdercoated wheels

20x9   front $2,000 

Hankook Ventus V12 eve Rear Tires  275 30ZR20

      Front Tires 245 35ZR20

(tires have 60-80% tread life left)


The car also has a fresh oil change ($170) and also a fresh interior and exterior detail ($300). Brakes have over 65% of life left.  I have all service documents and receipts for the car since I have owned it.  I also paid to have the front license plate bolt holes filled and painted (previous owner ran a front plate).  Car is in excellent condition.  One minor scratch about 1/2 inch long on the drivers side rear door and a minor scuff on the rear bumper from loading a suit case.  


This car is priced competitively for the reason that it is turn key.  You may  find a cheaper car from a dealership like I did a year ago but then you may be in the same boat that I was soaking almost $3,000 in parts to fix a car that a dealership didn’t want to fix.  These cars are extremely expensive to work on and all of the work has been done to this one.  I purchased a warranty for the car shortly after fixing all of the parts for some extra insurance.  The warranty is transferable for an extra $1,800.  The warranty covers everything on the car bumper to bumper. I am selling the car to free up some money for a start up business, no other reason. 


Please serious buyers only, I am firm on the price and will hold onto the car as long as it takes to get my full asking price.  You will not find a nicer looking and performing car out there for this price that you can drive and not worry about soaking any money into.  Only the best and genuine parts used on this car.  I will accept cash, cashiers check or a loan from a bank. Thank you for looking!

VW could look outside its own ranks for next CEO

Fri, Feb 27 2015

Companies have two options when coming up with succession plans – hire within, or go outside its ranks. Either choice comes with advantages and disadvantages, to be sure. Hiring within means generally getting someone familiar with the company and its culture and traditions, while going outside is ideal if you're looking to shake things up and bring in fresh ideas. It's unclear which avenue the Volkswagen Group will go down when it comes time to replace its head man, Herr Professor Doctor Doctor Herr Martin Winterkorn, but he isn't ruling out a trip outside of Wolfsburg. Winterkorn has already given the reins of the VW brand to former BMW board member Herbert Diess, while Andreas Renschler, a former Daimler board member, is heading up VW's truck group. Now, Winterkorn has made some statements to a German weekly that indicate the most important thing about his successor isn't necessarily his (or her, though no women appear to be on the short-list) previous employer, Motoring.com.au is reporting, so much as his qualities as a leader and an engineering background. "A Volkswagen boss has to have a big affinity to our products. He needs to be close to customers and he needs to have a relationship with dealers," Winterkorn told Stern. "Like always, it depends on the personality and it also helps if the candidate is an engineer." Motoring throws out a couple of potential candidates from within, including Porsche boss Mathias Muller, Audi Chairman Rupert Stadler and engineering guru Ulrich Hackenberg, in addition to both Diess and Renschler. And while each candidate has a lot of potential, the only thing that's guaranteed right now is what Winterkorn has already said: "The decision about who will succeed me is not an easy one for the supervisory board."

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.
