This is an all original, low mileage BMW 750IL. The car was owned by an elderly person and was very rarely driven. It was always maintained properly, and was stored in winters. The 44k miles are original. All body panels are original, and the paint is all original. There is NO rust anywhere on the vehicle, meaning body and underside. It is clean! The V-12 engine runs amazingly smooth and quiet with plenty of power.
Even though the AutoCheck says 4 owners, it is more like a 2 owner car. I purchased it from an estate, and it was explained to me that it was originally purchased in Virginia by an elderly woman who rarely drove it. When she passed away, her brother took possession of it (the title transfer from from VA to Wisconsin in 2003). He was also elderly and in poor health, so he did not drive it much either. It then went through the estate in July of this summer (2013), and then I purchased it from the estate. The important stuff: -The car runs 100%, smooth, powerful, no burning oil, no overheating, etc… I would not hesitate to recommend a fly and drive to the purchaser. -Drives straight, tight, and solid. No loose steering, no shakes, shimmies, or wobbles, no bouncing, no clunking. Hugs the road like a BMW should. -Body is straight, no accidents, no paintwork, no replaced body panels, all electrics work. -Earlier this summer it was given a full check over with a $3400 bill (mainly just replacing a few electric parts). -I just did about $5,000 worth of maintenance (per the local BMW dealer's estimate). -Tires on the included 15” factory wheels have about 75% tread left, though they are older. The 17" wheels shown need new tires. I will include both sets with the purchase of the car at the buy it now price. -No warning lights, system check errors, etc... All systems functioning normally.
Recent Mainenance: -Water pump (and all o-rings) -Thermostat -Fan clutch -Fan blades and shroud -New belt -New belt tensioners and tensioner struts (2 each) -New radiator hoses -New coolant expansion tank -New coolant level sensor -Cooling system filled with Genuine BMW blue coolant. -New windshield spray nozzles -New front struts, boots, bump stops -New rear pitman arms -New rear sway bar links -New battery

BMW already considering four cylinders for next M3
Tue, 13 May 2014The cylinder count in BMW's M3 has fluctuated over the years. The original M3 debuted in 1985 packing a 2.3-liter inline-four, but subsequent models went with sixes until the outgoing generation upped the cylinder count to eight. With its latest model, BMW has dropped back to six cylinders with a pair of turbos taking the place of the extra pistons. But the next M3 sedan and M4 coupe could go back to the model line's roots with a four-cylinder engine.
Speaking with BMW M product manager Carsten Pries at the launch of the latest M3 and M4 in Portugal, our Aussie compatriots at Motoring.com.au report that "you could see a future [M3] powered by a four-cylinder engine." Offsetting the reduction in cylinders, the lighter engine would benefit the vehicle's weight and balance, thus enhancing performance.
We wouldn't expect the next M3 and M4 to lose any power in the process, though: Output in the M3 has only risen over the generations, from 192 horsepower in the four-pot original to 282 hp in the six-cylinder E36, 338 hp in the six-cylinder E46, 414 hp in the V8 E90 and 425 ponies in the new turbocharged six-cylinder F80 model. With that latter model having just debuted, it'll likely be a good six or seven years before the next version comes along, giving BMW plenty of time to settle on an engine - however many cylinders and turbochargers it has. In the meantime, you'll have to forgive us for taking a romp down M3 memory lane in the fresh gallery of images above.
BMW X5 gets full battery of performance visuals
Wed, 12 Feb 2014If you think BMW toned down its third-generation X5 CUV a little too much with its latest redesign, the new M Performance Parts line of optional parts may give you a chance to inject in a new sense of style.
The aesthetic parts include new carbon fiber pieces for the mirror caps, front splitter, rear diffuser and rear aero flaps. There's also a rear spoiler, high-gloss black kidney grilles, M Performance rocker panel decals and double-spoke 21-inch wheels with performance tires. The interior upgrades are similar with an available Alcantara steering wheel with carbon fiber trim, stainless steel pedals and carbon fiber gearshift trim.
Not all of the M Performance Parts are about style. The M Performance Power Kit sharpens throttle response and boosts power of the X5 xDrive35i to 320 horsepower and 332 pound-feet of torque, an improvement of 20 hp and 32 lb-ft, and an optional exhaust with chrome tips improves its sound. For buyers looking for improved stopping power, the M Performance Brake Kit adds six-piston calipers with 19-inch steel rotors.
BMW stripes up X6 M Design Edition
Tue, 24 Sep 2013There's something that makes red, dark blue and light blue stripes running up the fenders and down the flanks of a white car just that much more eye-catching. Whether it's a Martini Racing liveried racecar or something from the BMW skunkworks, they just draw long looks nothing else can. And here's the latest.
The BMW X6 M Design Edition upgrades on the standard X6 M with such special touches as 21-inch alloys, a carbon front splitter and rear splitter, black grilles and diffusor, and of course, those iconic racing stripes, which come as an option on this model.
The interior has been done up in black leather with Mugello red accents and piano black trim. Only 100 individually-numbered examples will be offered, and given that this one's wearing German plates, we doubt there's much chance many (if any) will make it Stateside. But then again, you could always spec up your own X6 M with most if not all of the same trim and forgo the little number plate on the dashboard.
