Fantastic and Beautiful Car!
Exactly what you expect from a BMW, power, elegance, and solid handling.
Drive it just as it is and you'll have an excellent daily driver that'll get compliments on a daily basis and will be a joy to drive.
Take care of a few details and this BMW will be your pride and joy for years to come.
Don't want to mess up your new car this winter? This could be your perfect winter car! Heated Front Seats!!
This 540iA performed flawlessly on a cross country trip from Los Angeles to Tampa in August.
I am the 3rd owner of this 15 year old German Sport Luxury Cruiser.
Please remember she is 15 years old. As good as she is, this vehicle does have a few details that need taken care of to make her 100% again.
Mechanically:
the vehicle has been checked over by a BMW specialist and the only known issue is that the the check engine light is on, due to a faulty electrical thermostat. However the mechanical portion is working perfectly and the car has NO overheating issues!
Rear passenger window regulator needs to be replaced.
Cosmetically:
After 15 years and 136,000 miles the paint has some chips and is starting to fade a little, but it still shines up nicely, as seen in the pictures.
The gray, full power, heated leather seats show some wear, but are still incredibly comfortable.
Some of the wood grain trim is cracked.
Overall:
Great car. As is, makes a great daily driver or winter car. With a little attention you can easily make it new again.
If you're a fan of BMW's, you know how great this car is. If you've always wanted to get into a BMW but were afraid of the costs, you can't go wrong at this price!
Nearly 300 horsepower! 0-60mph in 6 seconds (in a car that weighs nearly 4000lbs!)
Front & Rear side impact airbags.
Wholesale priced! Don't miss out.
I can possibly deliver anywhere along the East Coast (at cost) AFTER vehicle has been paid for.
Vehicle is being advertised locally, so I reserve the right to end the auction at any time.

The importance of Angel Eyes, Ventiports and four round taillights
Sun, 01 Sep 2013Just the other day, we told you about how Lincoln isn't really a luxury brand, according to Ford's head design man, J Mays. His argument was that Lincoln lacked the unique DNA to differentiate it from the rest of the market, although the arrival of the MKZ is beginning to change that. Now, we have this video from Autoline Detroit, where Jim Hall, an analyst for 2953 Analytics who was quoted in yesterday's Lincoln story, explains the influence of certain styling cues and how they impact the brands.
Using BMW (Angel Eyes) and Buick (Ventiports) as examples for small, simple touches that serve to distinguish the brand's vehicles on the road, Hall then points out how changing trademark styling features, as Chevrolet has done on the new Corvette Stingray, can hurt the vehicle's public perception. Take a look at the full video below for an interesting dive into what these styling features mean to their individual brands.
2015 BMW M3 is fast for the family man
Mon, 13 Jan 2014BMW finally brought its four-door M3 into the public view, showing the new sedan off at the 2014 Detroit Auto Show. The new M3 represents BMW's return to small, wildly fast four-door sedans after a several year absence following the discontinuation of the E90 M3 Sedan way back in 2011.
The M3 enjoys the same 425-horsepower, 3.0-liter six-cylinder used in the M4, with 406 pound-feet of torque and the owner's choice of either an old-fashioned six-speed manual or a seven-speed M dual-clutch transmission. All told, the new powertrain should scoot the four-door M to 60 in a mere 3.9 seconds (with the M DCT).
We've got a full gallery of live images of the all-new M3 up above, and we've included the original stock gallery down below. Feel free to peruse either, and then let us know what you think by sounding off down in Comments.
BMW recalling nearly 570,000 1 Series, 3 Series and Z4 models over electrical issue
Mon, 18 Feb 2013BMW is recalling roughly 570,000 vehicles in the United States and Canada due to faulty battery cable connectors that can fail, causing the engines in these cars to stall. Of the nearly 570,000 affected vehicles, just over 504,000 are here in the US.
The affected vehicles include 1 Series coupes and convertibles (both 128i and 135i) from the 2008 to 2011 model years; 3 Series sedans, coupes, convertibles and sport wagons (both 328i and 335i) from the 2007 to 2011 model years; and Z4 roadsters from the 2009 to 2011 model years.
According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, "the connector for the positive battery cable connector and the corresponding terminal on the fuse box may degrade over time," which can eventually lead to a break in the electrical connection and a loss of power in the vehicle. If the car loses power, the engine can stall, which could possibly lead to a crash. The Detroit News reports that BMW knows of one minor collision in Canada as a result of this problem, but no injuries.
