2001 BMW M Roadster with less than 71,000 miles.

My retired father's car, selling due to health reasons.

Very fun and fast! Never, ever seen salt or snow, fair weather driven only.

Been driving less and less each year and now is time to sell.

Garage kept and stored during winter season(s)

Purchased several years ago from company CEO in Florida.

New stuff- less than 1,000 miles

  • Tires- General G-MAX All Season Performance tires (all four)
  • Brakes- Zimmerman pads and rotors (front and rear)
  • Power Steering Pump- BMW OEM
  • Factory Scheduled Maint.- glorified synthetic oil change

I would personally rate the car as very good condition, not perfect, museum, or mint condition, but very good to excellent for its age. I will try to list all known quirks below:

Driver's seat bolster shows wear (they all do), has marks on rim from shop who installed the new tires, drivers front bumper has small area of blotchy clear coat fade? (see picture, not impact or scuff), few other very minor blemishes but no dents, dings, or deep scratches, very few rock chips. Rear window little hazy but not bad (told zips in/out, $100 online??), Exhaust seems little buzzy to me intermittently but BMW said is normal raspy note at higher rpms. (maybe loose heat shield, may be nothing??)

Please ask before bidding, car is available for inspection for serious buyers only, please don't waste either of our time if you are not prepared to follow thru with purchase.

2015 BMW X6 keeps it weird

Thu, 02 Oct 2014

Say what you will about the BMW X6 - odd and ugly as it may be, it's actually been sort of successful for the German automaker. BMW has now sold some 250,000 examples of the X6 since its launch, and the company's fastback-crossover-coupe-whatever-thing gets a host of meaningful updates for the 2015 model year while not straying from its original mission.
Aside from its revised styling, most noticeably set apart by its larger, X5-inspired headlamps, the biggest update for the US-spec X6 is the addition of a rear-wheel-drive model, the sDrive35i. This trim joins the all-wheel-drive xDrive35i and xDrive50i, and since you should all be capable of decoding BMW's weird naming structure by now, you know this means the X6 will be offered with a choice of 3.0-liter turbocharged six-cylinder and twin-turbo 4.4-liter V8 engines. Fuel economy figures have not been released yet, but BMW says the new powertrains are more efficient than before, mated exclusively to an eight-speed automatic transmission regardless of cylinder count.
Look for the updated X6 to hit US showrooms this fall, following its debut this week in Paris. Expect pricing to be revealed closer to the model's on-sale date. Have a look below for all of the details.

BMW M3 and M4 leak ahead of Detroit debut

Wed, 11 Dec 2013

Images of the overhauled BMW M3 sedan and M4 coupe have leaked ahead of a debut at next month's Detroit Auto Show, along with option sheets and some specs.
Both wear the standard hallmarks of BMW's M division. There's a subtle power dome in the hood, along with the requisite M3/4-branded strakes on the front fenders. The front and rear fascia are more aggressive than what we've seen in the 3/4 Series M Sport package, as well. Split-five-spoke wheels mean the neither car will stand out in the family portrait and those gold calipers, meanwhile, signify what has been rumored for some time - the M3 and M4 will be getting carbon-ceramic brakes.
The cabin is home to the standard suite of M accoutrements, including a new steering wheel and more heavily bolstered seats. Special trim, including carbon fiber, will be available to further set these cars apart from the standard models.

2015 BMW i8 Prototype

Wed, 07 Aug 2013

M Meets Edison
The real telling moment for the new BMW i division will be seeing how the recently tested 2014 i3 sells in its various markets, since that is the car that changes how we perceive our expectations of the brand. But this 2015 BMW i8 green supercar has all the earmarks of a slam-dunk project, we just needed to drive it and make sure for ourselves.
BMW has a spectacular test facility in southern France, called Miramas, and that's where we just had our first brief go behind the wheel of the i8. There were three cars for us there and they were dressed up in exactly the same paisley camo that we've all seen in the spy photos published everywhere for the past year. The interiors, though swathed in masking to hide all the details, varied in their color.
