2006 Bmw M5 Base Sedan 4-door 5.0l on 2040-cars
Lake Bluff, Illinois, United States
For Sale is my immaculate 2006 BMW M5 V10 SMG. This car has over 550 horsepower. I bought this car in February of 2013. It is fully loaded and in excellent condition. I have invested about $7,000 in after market upgrades, cosmetic upgrades and general maintenance, still under an extended WARRANTY. This car has also always been garage kept and only driven on nice days. This car needs absolutely nothing done to it. I also have a documented used car inspection performed by Auto-Trader. I am the second owner of the car. Since I have owned it I have fixed several things. When I first purchased the car from a dealership without a warranty I experienced some issues with it shortly after getting it home (hence why this car is a better deal than a car you will buy from a dealership). I had a BMW Master Technician replace the battery, alternator, electric fan and also add the under drive pulley, replaced both belt tensioners, installed new belts and new coolant. Anyone who knows anything about this car can tell you that this is an enormous job that would have cost over $5,000 at a BMW dealership. The following has been done to this car since I have owned it: New battery $500 New alternator $500 New electric fan $1,000 New Hood Struts $100 BMC Filters RPI Scoops and block off plates $370 RPI Underdrive Pulley $455 (both belts replaced) Tensioner Pulleys (2) $300 Blacked out Kidney Grills $150 Blacked out Side Vents $150 Blacked out BMW Emblems all the way around $150 Blacked out M5 Badge $75 Tinted Windows $300 Painted black brake calipers and rotors $100 20x10 rear Powdercoated wheels 20x9 front $2,000 Hankook Ventus V12 eve Rear Tires 275 30ZR20 Front Tires 245 35ZR20 (tires have 60-80% tread life left) The car also has a fresh oil change ($170) and also a fresh interior and exterior detail ($300). Brakes have over 65% of life left. I have all service documents and receipts for the car since I have owned it. I also paid to have the front license plate bolt holes filled and painted (previous owner ran a front plate). Car is in excellent condition. One minor scratch about 1/2 inch long on the drivers side rear door and a minor scuff on the rear bumper from loading a suit case. This car is priced competitively for the reason that it is turn key. You may find a cheaper car from a dealership like I did a year ago but then you may be in the same boat that I was soaking almost $3,000 in parts to fix a car that a dealership didn’t want to fix. These cars are extremely expensive to work on and all of the work has been done to this one. I purchased a warranty for the car shortly after fixing all of the parts for some extra insurance. The warranty is transferable for an extra $1,800. The warranty covers everything on the car bumper to bumper. I am selling the car to free up some money for a start up business, no other reason. Please serious buyers only, I am firm on the price and will hold onto the car as long as it takes to get my full asking price. You will not find a nicer looking and performing car out there for this price that you can drive and not worry about soaking any money into. Only the best and genuine parts used on this car. I will accept cash, cashiers check or a loan from a bank. Thank you for looking! VIN# WBSNB935X6B583968 |

2014 BMW 4 Series Convertible is easy, breezy, beautiful
Wed, 20 Nov 2013BMW debuted its 2014 4 Series Convertible today at the LA Auto Show, and the sporting two-door will feature a folding hardtop - like the convertible 3 Series before it - and be offered in 428i and 435i guises.
The 428i Convertible is equipped with BMW's 2.0-liter turbocharged inline four-cylinder engine, which pumps out 240 horsepower and 255 pound-feet of torque - good for sprinting from 0-60 miles per hour in 6.2 seconds. The 435i Convertible gets the 3.0-liter turbocharged inline six-cylinder engine, which steps up output to 300 hp and 300 lb-ft of torque. The topless 435i drops the 0-60-mph time to 5.5 seconds. Both cars come standard with an eight-speed automatic transmission, and BMW says that a manual transmission will not be offered on 4 Series Convertibles in the US market.
The 4 Series Convertible will be offered in Sport Line, Luxury Line and M Sport trims. Pricing starts at $48,750 for the 428i Convertible and $54,900 for the 435i. Head on below to peruse the (long) press release for details.
Electrified BMW X1 spotted testing
Tue, 09 Apr 2013So here's something interesting. This might look like an ordinary BMW X1, but take a closer glance - those stickers on the side read "hybrid test vehicle," and around back, there doesn't appear to be a tailpipe at all. But does this mean that BMW is working on a straight-up all-electric version of its smallest crossover? Let's hypothesize for a moment.
Just because we can't see a tailpipe in these photographs doesn't mean there isn't one somewhere under there. And while those hybrid stickers are an indication that there's some sort of electrification going on underhood, it could just be for a forthcoming gasoline-electric version of the X1. Lexus recently confirmed it would be bringing a small hybrid CUV to market that will compete in the X1's space, so perhaps BMW is working on another powertrain option to offer when its littlest crossover gets refreshed.
Also consider that Toyota collaborated with Tesla to bring back the RAV4 EV, which would sort of compete with the X1, so it also stands to reason that perhaps this is an early test mule for a larger all-electric vehicle in the upcoming, eco-minded BMW i range. Our spies seem pretty confident that the prototype seen here is indeed an all-out EV, but we just can't say with certainty without more evidence.
2014 BMW M5 facelift shows up online
Tue, 14 May 2013Is it that time already? Like its predecessors, the current BMW M5 has been endangering US licenses since it first went on sale here in 2012, but its design became a known quantity back at the 2011 Frankfurt Motor Show. Apparently that also means that the F10 generation has already grown tired enough to the "Must Have Latest Set" who can afford these sorts of super saloons that a facelift is in order.
If these leaked images sourced from Autocar are anything to go by, BMW stylists have used a predictably light hand to rework their hottest 5 Series, with a revised grille that echoes the M6 along with modestly resculpted headlamps. The rear end appears wholly unaltered. Interior changes gleaned from a look at the cabin photos include an updated touchpad-equipped iDrive controller and a new steering wheel cribbed from the M6.
No new word on changes to the 4.4-liter, twin-turbo V8 powertrain, but in late April, we heard that BMW was readying new competition packages for the M5 and M6. The packages are said to include 15 more horsepower, revised suspension and steering, along with new wheels and blackened exhaust tips. Given that BMW is known for habitually underrating its cars' horsepower outputs (particularly its M models) we can't help but wonder if its engineers will need to do anything other than wave a magic wand to corral those extra ponies underhood...
