Rare 5 Speed Manual Bmw 530i, Thousands Of Dollars In Recent Repair Receipts!! on 2040-cars
Carmel, Indiana, United States
|
Up for sale is a 2001 BMW 530i equipped with a five speed manual transmission. It is hard to find manual on the 530's. Let me start with that this car has been well cared for. I have a book with thousands of dollars of repair receipts for this car. Just recently I replaced the rear tires and the front tires are at 80% life. They are yokohama tires. The brakes are in great shape just last year the front brakes/ rotors and two calipers were replaced. Pretty much the entire suspension was replaced last year which includes control arms, stab links, ball joints, sway bar links. The cooling system was overhauled in 2010. (about 7K in repair just in what I listed) Oil was just recently changed along with new cabin and air filter. The clutch grabs good. It drives great both on and off the highway. Basically you are getting a car that has had all the nasty expensive stuff taken care of that is known to go bad on e39's. Im sure you can find a cheaper one somewhere but you will need to dump money in to getting it up to par.
The exterior and interior are about a 7.5/10 for the year. A few rocks chips/ minor scratch on front/ rear bumper. Rear passenger quarter has a few paint blemishes. a few dings. Interior is clean, leather has no damage and has all weather mats. A few of the wood pieces have minor cracks. Nothing crazy for a 13 year old car. Comes with a Clean Title and it has a Clean Autocheck NO accidents. Paint appears to be all original. Good luck and bid what you feel the car is worth. My phone # is 317-900-2387 for any more questions. |

134K BMW 5 Series recalled for taillight issue
Fri, 20 Sep 2013BMW is voluntarily recalling 134,100 cars due to a faulty ground terminal in the taillight bulb carriers, causing the sudden failure of brake lights, turn signals and reverse lights. The recall covers 2008 through 2010 5 Series models produced between March 1, 2007 and December 31, 2009, and includes everything from the 528i to the mighty, V10-powered M5. It's unclear if this recall is limited to sedans or extends to the 5-Series Touring.
There have been no reported cases of injuries, fatalities or crashes associated with the taillight issue. BMW will be issuing recall notices to affected owners in the coming weeks, asking them to report to dealers so that the bulb carriers on the taillights can be replaced. All repairs are, naturally, free of charge. Scroll down for the official recall notice from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
The 2014 Alpina B4 Bi-Turbo Cabrio powers up luxury and speed
Tue, 04 Mar 2014The BMW specialists at Alpina know how to exploit a niche when they see one. With the BMW M4 still not technically official, it saw the need for a higher performance four-seat convertible than the 435i 'vert. Enter the new B4 Bi-Turbo Cabrio that is debuting at the Geneva Motor Show.
The European-exclusive model takes BMW's 3.0-liter, twin-turbocharged inline-6 and massages it up to 410 horsepower and 442 pound-feet of torque, which is less power but more twist than the M4 would give buyers. Alpina's tend to be built more as quick, luxurious grand tourers, and the B4 Bi-Turbo gets is no different with an adaptive sport suspension and an eight-speed automatic. Plus it wears the classic pinstripes and 21-spoke wheels that are the brand's design hallmarks.
While the added weight for the convertible means that the Cabrio takes 4.5 seconds to reach 62 miles per hour, about a half-second slower than the coupe, at the moment it is the only way to get this kind of performance in a BMW convertible. Orders for the convertible open in March in Europe and prices in Germany start at 74,800 euros ($102,878 at today's conversion rates).
BMW discussing new plant with Mexican authorities
Mon, 19 Aug 2013Drawn in by low wages and manufacturing costs, BMW could be the next automaker to set up a manufacturing facility in Mexico. Automotive News is reporting that the German automaker has had discussions with local Mexican governments regarding a possible assembly plant, but there is no word as to when a decision may come down. Last we heard, BMW was reportedly looking to build the 3 Series in Mexico.
A key determining factor for this new plant is a free-trade agreement between the US and Europe, which according to the article, would give BMW better "flexibility and cost structure" to open another plant in North America. In terms of luxury automakers, Audi is currently building a new plant in Mexico and Mercedes-Benz is considering opening one in conjunction with Nissan for the CLA-Class, and in the bigger picture, Honda and Mazda are also preparing to kick off vehicle production in Mexico.
