1997 Bmw 840ci, 840, Black On Black In Excellent Shape, Low Miles 57,000 on 2040-cars
Huntingdon Valley, Pennsylvania, United States
Please read following description first before asking any questions, if you need more information just ask. I have had this BMW for last four years, absolutely love it, has been a weekend and sunny weather pleasure drive vehicle for me and the wife, the exterior of the vehicle is beautiful black finish with minimal natural wear for a 1997 model, the interior black leather is in great shape with no scratches or damage. I have upgraded the wheels to the 17" BMW originals with new tires with less than a 1000 miles on them, I do have the original 16" wheels and tires available if the winning bidder is interested. The engine runs like new and it has had regular service. This car is a real head turner and a last year of production of its model, a real 1990's excess, it is a autobahn cruiser with a muscle car power. As I have indicated above the car has a reconstructed title, from the information I have gathered, a fender bender resulted in, replacement of, driver side fender , turn signal/ fog lamp, and driver side door, because of the year and the high cost of replacement parts insurance decided on a write off . There is no damage anywhere to be found and the car is perfect . This car has it all, even traction and stability control, unheard of in 97' vehicles. I am so confident of this car , I am offering a one week return option to the winning bidder - only- if he/she did not have chance to inspect the car prior to auction close and finds any serious issue with the vehicle, return is only for a damage existing prior to sale, and will not be honored just because you change your mind or don't like the car anymore, less the $500 deposit. The MID display (in the pictures) is loosing pixels a fix is $130, I just did not have time to take care of it. The car just had a Pennsylvania inspection good till 10/14, new batteries installed in March 12', brakes done April 13' I also strongly encourage you to inspect the car prior to bidding if you can. I am not a car dealer and do not provide warranties or shipping. Check the value of 1997 BMW with 57 k miles on Kelly Blue book, average 13-14 k that is if you can find one like this. Lastly to answer a standard , why are you selling question; I have just purchased a convertible for the wife and can not keep two toys at the same time. Please no trades, deals of any kind or tire kickers, I do not have time to waste on B.S.

Car and Driver lists 10Best for 2013, same as it ever was
Wed, 05 Dec 2012Forgive us for having the distinct feeling of déjà vu, but it certainly feels like we've been here before. By that we are referring Car and Driver and the announcement of its annual 10Best vehicles for 2013. To be sure, it's an impressive selection of cars that combine heart-pounding performance and frugal sensibilities, but it also represents something of a broken record on the part of C/D. We're not so sure that's a flaw, though, as the resulting list is tough to argue with.
Vehicles like the Ford Mustang, Porsche Boxster, and BMW 3 Series have maintained their high-horsepower spots on this list for several years now. Even on the more practical and nimble end, the Honda Accord, Honda Fit and Mazda Miata have not budged. These continued spots are even in light of redesigns for some vehicles such as the Accord, Boxster and 3 Series.
In fact, the only newcomer to the 10Best list this year are the Scion FR-S/Subaru BRZ twins, which knocked out the Cadillac CTS-V. We think it would have been a huge misstep to have excluded the FR-S/BRZ, even in light of the supercharged Caddy's lamentable departure from 10Best.
NHTSA urges owners of recalled Takata airbag vehicles to take immediate action
Mon, 20 Oct 2014The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the Department of Transportation are taking the unusual step of issuing a followup press release urging owners of certain recalled vehicles "to act immediately" to fix their cars and trucks. The problem in question concerns the repair campaigns for rupturing Takata airbag inflators issued in June and covers a long list of models from Toyota, Lexus, Honda, Acura, Mazda, BMW, Nissan, Infiniti, Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet, GMC, Oldsmobile and Pontiac.
While NHSTA doesn't specifically say why the recall is vital in the new release, Toyota's own explanation in its newly announced renotification campaign earlier today sheds some new light on the topic. According to the Japanese automaker, in testing, Takata found a possible link between the rupturing airbag inflators and high humidity. NHTSA is advocating that all owners pursue repairs immediately if they haven't already done so already. This is especially crucial for those drivers especially in Florida, Puerto Rico, Guam, Saipan, American Samoa, Virgin Islands and Hawaii because of the humid conditions there.
We don't need to tell you how dangerous an inadvertent airbag deployment could be - even in a stationary vehicle - but adding to the Takata issue is fears that the deployment could lead to shrapnel being sprayed into the cabin.
BMW: i8 sold out, i3 records 10k orders
Mon, 25 Nov 2013Just in case anyone was wondering how plug-in BMW cars would be received, the answer is apparently "quite well." After speaking with BMW's global sales chief last week at the LA Auto Show, Reuters has learned that the plug-in hybrid i8 sports coupe is already sold out for its first year on the market.
There is no word as to how many i8s BMW sold, but the first example was delivered to a customer last week in Germany. As for the all-electric/range-extended i3 hatchback, the automaker has received more than 10,000 orders for this model before it even goes on sale. Likewise, we don't know how many BMW plans to sell, but we do know they'll be showing up in the US before next summer.
We've already spent some time behind the wheel of both plug-in BMWs, and you can check out our first drive of the production i3 and our first drive of an i8 prototype.
