US $6,000.00

Seattle, Washington, United States

Seattle, Washington, United States

This is a silver, 5 speed automatic transmission, 4.4 liter V8 BMW 540i (E39 model) with gray leather interior. It is model year 2000 with the sport package (19 inch alloy wheels, sport suspension, tiptronic transmission (allows manual style shifting), additional supports in the front seats, sunroof). It has 121,000 miles.

Mechanically, the car is great. It's fast and runs smoothly and without any issues. Recently I had the motor mounts and the driveshaft replaced. I have extensive records for it and bought it from my parents who bought it new in 2000. Everything (mechanical, electric, and electronic) functions as it should, including the cruise control, A/C, and onboard computer.  It is mechanically sound. Oil changes and other regular maintenance have been done consistently and on time.

It gets about 19 mpg in the city, about 24 mpg on the highway.

The car is in really good cosmetic condition: no rust, only the regular minor issues that come from 13 years on the road, like small paint chips on the hood. 

There are no aftermarket modifications.

I am the second owner; the first owners were my parents.


KBB says this car, in good condition, is worth $7300 on the private market.  Mechanically, this car is excellent but it does have a couple of cosmetic issues (listed above).  It will not give a new owner and trouble.  I want to sell this car quickly.

It is a terrific, clean car driven by non-smokers. 

Pick up in Seattle or pay and coordinate for shipping.

2012 Pebble Beach Concept Car Lawn offers a tutorial in cars to come

Sun, 19 Aug 2012

The Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance is a showcase for some of the world's most exquisite vintage vehicles, but if newer metal is more your speed, the Concept Car Lawn is the place to be.
This year saw models from Bugatti, Lamborghini, Aston Martin, McLaren and Bentley as well as SRT, Hennessey, Infiniti and Lexus among others. The ultimate sampler platter of exotic and concept vehicles saw the Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Grand Sport Vitesse mingle with the Lamborghini Urus Concept and the mighty Hennessey Venom GT, though we found ourselves particularly smitten with the BMW Zagato Roadster and the Aston Martin Vanquish.
Not that we could go wrong anywhere we looked. The 2013 Bentley Continental GT Speed seemed perfectly content parked on the manicured putting green, as did the McLaren MP4-12C Spider. Get cozy with the full gallery below to see the smattering of metal on the lawn.

EVO "2012 Car of the Year: The Track Battles" is a sports car salmagundi

Sun, 25 Nov 2012

EVO has come out with another gotta-watch-it video, throwing its 2012 Car of the Year contestants around the UK's 1.5-mile Blyton Park track. It's actually a 15-minute teaser for the full-length DVD detailing the magazine's Car of the Year selection, but the tease is worth every penny free second.
Tiff Needell and sports car racer Richard Meaden handle the wheel duties, the two driving five pairs of sports cars: Lotus Exige S vs. Porsche Boxster S, Morgan Three-Wheeler vs. Toyota GT86, BMW M135i vs. Porsche 911, Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Black Series vs. Alpina B3 GT3, the marquee event pits the McLaren MP4-12C vs. the Pagani Huayra. After a head-to-head lap with commentary during drifts, Meaden takes each car out to set a representative lap time.
You'll find the verdicts, lots of tire smoke, and lines like "Anything you can do sideways I can do sideways" in the video below.

BMW offers xDrive on 2015 2 Series

Fri, 06 Jun 2014

BMW 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.
