For sale is my 1997 BMW 740i .
The car is in overall good condition. I am selling both of my current vehicles to put towards a new car. 4.4 Liter V8 Automatic Transmission 177,000 Miles Green with Tan leather seats The good: Engine runs excellent. Runs strong with no noise or smoke. No leaks. Brand new Radiator. Brand new Trans cooler lines (Failed right after auction ended last time) Transmission shifts smooth and quiet. Body is in good shape. Has a minor dent in the passenger fender, and a few of the rubber trim pieces have wear, but still cleans up very nicely. 4 Newer tires (less than a year old) New brake pads and tie rod ends. Hot heat, cold a/c. All power accessories work with the exception of the drivers rear window. Heated seats, sunroof, climate control, etc all function as they should. The Not so good: Cupholder is broken. (Typical issue) Has typical e38 display pixel issues on both cluster and radio. Minor wear on arm rest Some of the wood trim inside has minor wear. Sway bar links make a little noise over bumps at low speeds. One tiny rust spot (dime sized). See picture. I wouldn't hesitate to drive this anywhere. I've included a brief video of it running and driving. Sorry for the poor audio quality: On Feb-25-14 at 16:00:54 PST, seller added the following information: Edit: A few people have inquired about the nasty feedback left about this car. Shortly after the previous auction ended, the car developed a leak from the front area of the transmission. I couldn't see exactly where it was coming from, and appeared to be leaking from the front of the transmission. I informed the buyer, refunded his deposit, and he left nasty feedback anyway. It wound up being the cooler lines, right where they enter the transmission. I have replaced the leaking line, and everything is fine. You are more than welcome to come see the car in person and test drive it if you have any concerns. |

Next BMW X1 moving to smaller, lighter FWD-biased platform
Thu, 20 Feb 2014BMW's decision to make the upcoming 2-Series Active Tourer front-wheel drive has been polarizing to say the least, but like it or not, that is the direction the company will go in the near future - one rumor put the number as high as 23 front-wheel-drive models for Mini and BMW combined. The next-generation X1 won't send all its power to the front wheels, though, when it launches in early 2016. While it will use the same platform as the Active Tourer, rumors suggest all models will use all-wheel drive - at least at launch.
A "high-ranking," unnamed BMW manager confirmed to AutoWeek that the new model will switch to transversely-mounted three- and four-cylinder engines and the same six-speed manual and eight-speed automatic transmissions as the Active Tourer. The new, smaller platform will allow for more efficient packaging, and despite the smaller size, interior space will remain comparable. All the changes should make it significantly lighter too.
Don't start wailing just yet because BMW surely won't be entirely abandoning sporty models. AutoWeek claims that the Bavarians are working on a higher-output version of the 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder with power closer to 300 horsepower, about a 72-hp boost. It's also rumored to offer a sporty version of the X1 that may be called the X2.
Volkswagen Group, BMW Z4 top Total Value Awards by Strategic Vision
Tue, 11 Dec 2012It was just nine months ago that Strategic Vision announced its 2011 Total Value Awards, but you don't have to wait until next year for the 2012 awards. The Volkswagen Group keeps its lead as the number one brand, with seven products taking top category spots: Golf, Jetta Wagon, CC, Eos and Audi A3 Wagon, Q5 and Q7. Strategic Vision says "true innovation" - "rich and impactful, intuitive, motivational, in-depth and is able to trigger description by the user in great specificity" - is the open secret of the brands with the strongest showings. Results are culled from 77,153 owners covering more than 350 new cars bought between September of 2011 and 2012 ranked in the Total Value Index (TVI).
Other notable winners are Hyundai-Kia following VW in the brand category and having the Hyundai Elantra and Kia Sorento among category winners, the BMW Z4 taking the premium roadster category and the highest overall score of any vehicle, the Chevrolet Volt continuing to gather silverware in the Special Category, nabbing the second-highest score of all and representative of "nearly perfect innovation," and Chrysler and Dodge being most improved.

BMW i3 misses top Euro safety rating [w/videos]
Wed, 27 Nov 2013The Euro NCAP just tested a recent batch of new cars including the 2014 BMW i3, and the EV Bimmer scored less-than-perfect results. Though not horrible, BMW's all-electric/range-extended i3 was given a four-star (out of five possible) crash rating due to concerns with front-occupant whiplash and side-impact protection.
Based on the crash results, the BMW provided suitable protection for occupants in the frontal, side barrier, pedestrian and child-seat tests, but the i3 was tripped up when it came to the more severe side pole test and the rear-impact test. The pole test showed protection to the chest of the test dummy was "weak," and the front seats only provided "marginal" protection against whiplash for front passengers. Scroll down to watch two videos released by the Euro NCAP of the i3 being tested.
