I need to sell the car that I've loved to drive since I bought it in 2002.  We needed to get a second car with an automatic transmission, but the main reason I'm selling it now is that we need to raise money to pay for an adoption we are in the process of.  So, since I won't have time to work on this car for the next few years, it's time to let someone else enjoy it. 

The car is decent condition for a 15 year old vehicle. It has approximately 156,000 miles and a clean title. This was a daily driver, so it does have obvious wear on the seats (see pictures).  The body is in good condition, with only a few minor blemishes.  This does need a little TLC (mainly a brake job, good wash and wax, repair a few stiches in the top [no tears, but about 2 or 3 inches of stitching has worn out]).  The engine starts and runs, and the transmission shifts well.



There are some other minor things to know about the car:
The top goes up and down well but it needs a little help so it doesn't get stuck. It can be adjusted, it just hasn't bothered me enough to do it.

- The inside of the top could use one of the repair kits that's available for $100 or so (to replace the plastic pillar and tension cords that are known to fail on these tops).  Again, it hasn't bothered me enough to fix it yet.



This car is a lot of fun to drive.

Six luxury-car features I'm ashamed to admit I love

Thu, 16 Oct 2014

A hot compress felt wonderful on my sore back. The methodical kneading of my shoulder blades loosened the knots that formed over several hours of driving. The Swedish-style pulses firing into my lumbar region released more tension.
I wasn't getting a much-needed massage following a recent road trip. I was getting it during the road trip.
I grew up riding in the back seat of a 1976 Chevy Nova. But once you use these lux features, it's easy to go soft.

BMW revisits its 8 Series

Thu, 04 Jul 2013

So why would BMW choose July 2 to release a retrospective on the 8 Series? Could it have something to do with the recent unveiling of the Pininfarina Gran Lusso Coupe concept, another sleek, B-pillarless V12 two-door, at this year's Villa d'Este? We have no idea, but the timing is likely coincidental.
This three-minute look at the 8 Series talks to Niels Hamann, who was smitten with the long-hooded coupe when it appeared in 1989 and finally bought one in 2004. Hamann also happens to be a project manager at BMW, and that came in handy when he wrote a book detailing every aspect of what was BMW's flagship for ten years but to the chagrin of many only managed one generation.
While we wait for the next clue about the Gran Lusso - 8 Series connection, check out the video below.

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.
