The Kelly Blue Book value for this remarkable car is $46,486.
This is a beautiful car that I special ordered. As of today, I owe $50,441.74 to BMW Financial. The buy now price of $44,000.00 is the minimum that I will accept prior to the end of the auction, so no need asking for me to unlist for an offer less than that. However, the reserve is set at a very reasonable 39,750.01. If it doesn't sell for at least that amount, I will keep the car or relist it. Under no circumstances will I take less than that, so there is no need to wait for the auction to end and then ask me to take less. It just ain't happening.
This transaction will work as follows (unless we agree to other amicable terms). Once you have agreed to buy the car, we will contact BMW Financial together to make the payment arrangements. All funds will be sent to BMW financial.. You will send a cashier's check for the purchase price (less the $500 deposit) to BMW financial and I will send a cashier's check for the remaining amount owed on the loan (plus the deposit). BMW will keep the funds in escrow until all funds are received and have cleared. The car will then be delivered and the title will be sent directly from BMW Financial to the purchaser. That way we are both protected by the 3rd party (BMW).
The car is in excellent mechanical condition. It is still under warranty until 50K miles.
All services by a BMW dealer. An inspection was conducted by the dealer last week and the report is available. Everything checked out perfect with the following exception: there was a slight warp detected in the front rotors, so brand new rotors will be installed on Tuesday.
I recently purchased new tires for the front. The rear tires were changed out about 7 months ago. All tires were purchased from and installed by the dealer. I also purchased 5 years of insurance on the wheels/tires. I had existing scrapes on two of the wheels repaired about 3 months ago.
The interior is black extended leather (seats, doors, lower dash below trim, steering wheel, shift, center console) with carbon leather trim, all black. It's awesome and in perfect condition.
Premium Sound: This is the most incredible sound system I have ever heard in a car (period).

EVERY OPTION added with the exception of heated seats and performance exhaust.
The exterior is jerez black - deep black with a blue undertint that looks so cool in the sun. There is a small (quarter inch) surface scratch on the hood (see pics). It doesn't show through to the primer so you can't see it until you are up close to the hood. There is a very small ding at the very rear of the roof (see pics). I have no idea how it got there. It looks like a hail dent but I don't think it's ever been in hail. The right rearview mirror has a small scuff that I haven't tried buffing out (see pics). These are all very minor and I'm sure a body shop could take care of them for a couple hundred bucks or if you have any talent in that area yourself (I don't) you can probably do it yourself. I have some touch up paint in case you need it.
I get asked about the higher mileage. I've driven the car to Colorado (Vail area) and Utah (Provo area) twice. Also, my firm's main office is a 3 hour drive from where I live, and I commute there about 2 times a month.

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 and Mini shuffle NA management, McDowell to retire
Wed, 04 Dec 2013BMW and Mini recently shuffled top personnel in their design departments, and now BMW of North America will reorganize its management to improve customer relations. Peter Miles (pictured), currently the executive vice president of operations, will take a newly created position, vice president of sales channel development and customer relations, while Jim McDowell, vice president of Mini of the Americas, will retire.
Chris Koenders, president of BMW Group Netherlands, will move take Miles' spot as executive vice president of operations. David Duncan, western region vice president, will take McDowell's job as vice president of Mini of the Americas. Finishing off the management switcharoo is Peter Witt, who will move from his current position as Managing Director of BMW Sweden to take Duncan's job as western region vice president.
"We are intensifying our customer-driven focus and these changes will influence the entire organization to continue improving all phases of the customer journey from prospect to purchase and throughout the ownership cycle," says Ludwig Willisch, president and CEO of BMW NA. For more information on the management reorganization, check out the press release below.
BMW 02 Series mini-documentary makes us fall in love all over again
Sun, 24 Mar 2013BMW's current reputation of building Ultimate Driving Machines can be traced back through history all the way to 1966, when the German automaker introduced the world to its 1600-2 two-door at the Geneva Motor Show. The car's name was simplified in 1971 to BMW 1602, and it went on to spawn the 2002, one of the most famous BMW models of all time.
BMW looks back on its past successes in a video that you can see below. As the automaker itself says in the video description, "This series was extraordinarily successful in reinterpreting the concept of the sports saloon and played a major role in motor sport long after production had come to an end." The 2002 would be replaced in 1975 by another legendary model from BMW: the 3 Series.
We'd be lying if we said we didn't long for something along the lines of the classic 2002 from BMW today. Since that doesn't seem likely to happen anytime soon, join us in remembering the cars that helped make BMW a household name by scrolling down below.
