1997 Bmw 528i/5 on 2040-cars
Glen Gardner, New Jersey, United States
|
Up for sale is my 1997 BMW 528i 5-Speed. I bought the car about 3 months ago thinking i would keep it for a while, but i just recently got the chance to buy Another newer car so this one has to go. I have driven this car all over for these 3 months and it has never let me down. Even though the motor has over 200k on it, it always starts without an issue, doesn't smoke, and pulls very hard and strong. The trans is very smooth. The clutch is in very good shape and doesn't slip. The exterior of the car is pretty good besides the one major dent in the lower part of the trunk. It also has two decently seized ones on the passenger fender. Everything in the interior works except for the cup holders which didn't work before i got them and is a very common e39 problem. The only lights on are the traction control, abs and airbag lights. They are intermittent, but i think its just a bad abs sensor. The car on the road is very smooth and comfortable, its strait and has no play in the steering. It does have a very slight vibration at 65-70mph. Other than that the a/c compressor makes noise but it blows cold. I have a spare compressor i was going to put on later on down the road which i can include in sale. Overall this is a great car and it has ton of life left in it, its fun to drive and is a great highway car and road trip car. Car is sold as is where is and is located in Glen Gardner NJ 08826. Car is also being sold locally and I have the right to end the auction at any time to sell it.
If you have any other questions or would like to come see the car contact me at aprilejon78@gmail.com |

Lexus back in luxury sales race after three-year absence
Sun, 08 Jun 2014Think the only challengers for the title of best-selling luxury brand hail from der Vaterland? Wrong. Lexus outsold the likes of Mercedes-Benz for the second time in 2014 last month. In fact, the Japanese luxury marque's total sales this year are a mere 12,000 units behind BMW.
Lexus was able to move 26,921 vehicles last month, a year-over-year increase of 21.1 percent, respectively. Mercedes, meanwhile, was just barely beaten, moving 26,617 units in April. The difference, though, is that Lexus has made far bigger year-over-year gains than Mercedes, which recorded a YOY increase of just 4.13 percent.
This is particularly troubling for the Germans, as it marks a return to form for Lexus that we haven't seen since before the March 2011 earthquake and tsunami that decimated Japan. Prior to that natural disaster, Lexus enjoyed nearly a dozen years at the top of the luxury heap.
BMW puts a sheep in wolf's clothing with 2 Series Active Tourer M Sport
Thu, 27 Mar 2014BMW is charting new territory with the 2 Series. No, not the two-door model - that's just the kind of rear-drive coupe for which the brand is known. But the Active Tourer (which only shares its series designation with the coupe) is a front-drive tall hatchback/MPV category buster, and that's not exactly what comes to mind when you think of Bimmers. As such, the 2 Series Active Tourer is bound to turn off some of the brand's faithful, but this latest M Sport kit could at least ease the pain somewhat.
The sport package for the Active Tourer packs all the usual suspects: a more aggressive aero kit, retuned suspension, blacked-out grille, 17- or 18-inch alloys and an interior with sports seats trimmed in blue-stitched Alcantara. Top all that off with an Estoril Blue paint job and you've got a compact family hauler that might look the part, and maybe handle a bit tighter, yet it naturally stops short of the full M treatment (or even an M Performance spec like you'd find in the M235i coupe). All of which is probably just as well, because that might be the only thing BMW purists would object to more than the existence of a front-drive BMW MPV in the first place.
2011 BMW 1 Series M Coupe now more expensive than when new
Sun, 06 Apr 2014At the end of the day, your friendly Autoblog editors are car guys, just like you. So, while we might have more of an opportunity to test some of the most interesting vehicles on the new car scene than does your average gear head, we can still be found whiling away those long afternoon hours looking at used cars and thinking about what could be.
Just the other day, we had a vivid reminder about one of our dream cars from the very recent past, the 2011 BMW 1 Series M Coupe. If you didn't catch it, Michael Harley had a great time testing and reviewing the new Dinan S3-R version of the car, which throws an impressively engineered turbo and suspension tune on a BMW that was damn near perfect out of the box.
In the Comments section of that review, a few savvy Autoblog readers pointed out that our estimated price for a used donor car, set at $50,000, was low. Odd, we thought, as the car retailed for less than $50k ($46,135) when it was new in 2011. So we started checking around.
