1999 Bmw 528i - $3000 Of New Suspension Parts Included! on 2040-cars
Centerville, Louisiana, United States
Hate to see it go. I put so much work and care into this car, but it was the victim of a sad accident which damaged the rear of the car and bent the frame. My loss is your gain! Car is like new inside and other than the body damage in the rear, the rest of the body is in good condition. The hood and front bumper need paint, but otherwise the rest of the paint shines. No other body damage, other than small dings and scratches from use. Engine has new oil filter housing gasket (a known problem on these cars) as well as new Teflon VANOS seals. Transmission was replaced by dealership (rebuilt) about 25,000 miles ago, along with a new TCU. Car has ALL new OEM suspension arms and bushings installed in the front, along with brand new Koni FSD struts and Vogtland sport springs, and Stoptech cryo treated slotted rotors and Akebono ceramic brake pads. I also have brand new Brakes, Rotors, Koni FSD struts and Vogtland springs for the rear that have not been installed and are still sitting new in the box. I should have done the rear first, sadly that was the cause of the crash. Those parts will be included with Buy-It-Now, along with the old parts from the front. I never raced the car, or mistreated it in any way. It was my first really "nice" car and I babied it and cared for it with love. I hope that it can be rebuilt and enjoyed again by someone who will treat it as well as I have. If not, at least its parts can live on in your car. I was going to rebuild it myself but I don't have the time or money right now, and I'd rather see it go to good use than to rot away in storage.
If you have any questions or concerns at all, please feel free to contact me. Thanks and good luck! |

BMW M3 and M4 CSL not in the cards
Mon, 27 Jan 2014We aren't sure whether to file this one under "good news" or "bad news." BMW confirmed to Top Gear that there "are no plans" for lightweight versions of the new M3 and M4, in the same vein as the E46 M3 CSL (despite rumors to the contrary). The reason?
"There wasn't a CSL on the previous generation, and the way we look at it is like this: the CSL was great because it had this real focus on lightweight engineering. But we've already done that with these new cars. We've made them as light as possible - they come in under 1500 kilograms (3,306 pounds), which for a car like this is incredible," said Matt Collins, BMW's product manager for small to medium cars.
Now, as much as we love the idea of a hardcore version of any car, we appreciate BMW's point of view that the newest Ms are already as light and tough as they need to be. Collins elaborated, saying, "Rather than doing a halfway house to begin with and then rolling out a CSL, we thought we'd make the 'real' car as light as we possibly could. So we've no plans whatsoever to make a lighter, harder version just yet."
BMW offers xDrive on 2015 2 Series
Fri, 06 Jun 2014BMW has released its mile-long list of model changes for 2015. It's mostly comprised of tiny tweaks to options packages, pricing or trim colors, but there are a few interesting new features in there too. One thing all buyers will notice is that as of July 1, the company's destination charge increases by $25, to $950 for all of its models.
The 2 Series gets two really useful upgrades for 2015. We already knew that BMW's xDrive all-wheel drive system would be offered on the M235i this summer. However, it won't be the only 2 capable of spinning all four wheels. The 228i model will also be available with the system for $34,850 (after destination), $1,800 more than the standard model.
The other big addition brings a sportier ride to the 228i (with or without xDrive) for those who don't want to spring for the M235i. BMW is adding a Track Handling Package (pictured above) that lowers the suspension 10mm and includes the Adaptive M Suspension, Variable Sport Steering, M Sport Brakes and 18-inch wheels with Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires. It's available on manual or automatic models at $1,600 for cars ordered with the M Sport or Sport Line trims or $2,200 without it.
BMW starts Apple-like "Genius" program to explain tech
Wed, 20 Feb 2013Even workaday cars are so capable now that even most auto scribes don't truly find out about a car's limits until a professional driver shows them what they are. It's the same with a vehicle's suite of features and the technology inside - there's so much of it that most people will have no idea what their cars can offer them. BMW is the latest company to make a personal effort to change that, introducing "young, tech-savvy employees" to dealerships as part of its "BMW Genius Everywhere" initiative.
Having no part in the actual sale of a vehicle, a BMW Genius is present on the showroom floor only to answer questions about the company's products and their features. If the customer decides to buy, he is transferred to a salesperson. A pilot program in the UK proved its effectiveness, it will now be rolled out across Europe and then come to the United States toward the end of this year in time for the launch of the i3. Details are still being worked out, but each BMW dealer will have at least one Genius.
For assistance that doesn't require visiting the auto mall, BMW is also putting vehicle and feature tutorials on its US website to "make our knowledge about our brand more interesting and more accessible to the consumer." They will appear online sometime in the latter half of the year, and will also be bundled into iPhone and iPad apps.
