WOW this champion turns heads everywhere and is so fast and so smooth and handles so good it will truly amaze you. Don't be fooled by the station wagon body, this is a luxury sports car. Far advanced safety and comfort features for it's time. BMW's finest. This wagon cost over $60,000 new. Very few left in this condition so don't hesitate - you won't find another one. Clean title in hand for easy transfer.

A note about the pixels on the dash - it is not difficult nor expensive to repair. BMW acknowledged the problem and will help with the repair. You must call BMW North America and explain your issue, they will only help the registered owner, proof is required. In most cases BMW supplies the parts and the customer pays about $90 labor. It did not concern me in the least so I did not bother to get it fixed. Every BMW I have ever owned had the same issue.

I have described this car to the best of my ability. This vehicle has just passed NY State inspection and has been completely checked over by an independent mechanic. This car needed nothing. All vehicles over 100k miles and over 10 years old are sold As-Is. Sales tax may be collected depending on your location in accordance with NY state law. Absolutely no additional dealer fees will be added. Warranties are available from 3rd parties, I do not sell them, most of the time they are a rip-off. If you are a NY resident I can take your car in trade at fair KBB value and transfer your plate on the spot. The name of my dealership is "Alfred Auto Center" I encourage you to check out our reputation on Repairpal, we strive to take care of all of our customers long after the sale.

Thank You for looking at my car!

Let's keep it simple and easy - 1. You win the bid, 2. Submit a $500 non-refundable deposit via Paypal immediately, 3. I will contact you and then you will mail me a bank check via certified mail with a tracking #, 4. Once the check clears you come and get the car, title, and keys or arrange for transport.

NOTE: actual mileage will be slightly higher than shown as I drive this car regularly.

2013 BMW M6 Coupe

Wed, 12 Jun 2013

The Act And The Exclamation
The 2013 BMW M6 is a rolling obscenity - one that begins with the capital letter "F." It is both the act and the exclamation, the curse and the encouragement. It courts no logic. It is all want and no need, and it is unbecoming of the BMW roundel. Whereas the brand's products once strove to unite man and machine in a duet of blissful performance, the M6 seems built solely to stand between the driver and the road. You are very clearly in its way every second you're behind the wheel, slowing it down and generally being the Monday morning to its two-day trance festival. It's clear this car is very fast, but it has no interest in making you fast in the way that the M3 or even the M5 are wont to do.
But somehow, all that doesn't stop the car from stoking every last lick of lust in your gut. A 560-horsepower twin-turbocharged V8 will do that for you.

BMW and Samsung team up with Galaxy Gear smartwatch that talks to your i3

Sun, 12 Jan 2014

Without a doubt, the most impressive thing that BMW showed at CES this year was a driverless M235i drifting flawlessly around a wet track at Las Vegas Speedway. However, that bit of robotic helmsmanship wasn't the only trick the German company had up its sleeve. Or, more to the point, on its wrist.
Taking a page from rival Mercedes-Benz, BMW demonstrated how a "smartwatch," in this case the Samsung Galaxy Gear, could be made to function usefully with a vehicle, in this case the BMW i3. Calling it a "research application," BMW showed off its BMW i Remote App on the Galaxy Gear; the app gives information about state of battery charge, available range and whether or not all the doors and windows are closed or open. Perhaps more useful still, the watch can be used to send a destination to the i3's navigation unit, adjust the climate control in preparation for a trip and can recognize voice commands. Nifty stuff, if not world-shaking, that could help tech-obsessed luxury buyers take a second look at the upcoming BMW EV.
Take a closer look at the watch in action below, or read thru the BMW press release.

BMW 328d confirmed for New York debut

Thu, 14 Mar 2013

Late last year, some of BMW's future diesel plans for the US market were leaked, and we learned that a diesel-powered version of the 3 Series sedan (pictured above in 335i guise) would be coming in the first quarter of 2013. That report appears to be holding true, as BMW has just confirmed the debut of the oil-burning 328d sedan as part of the company's New York Auto Show plans.
The 328d will be powered by a turbocharged four-cylinder diesel engine good for 180 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque. The rear-wheel-drive sedan will hit 60 miles per hour in 7.2 seconds and fuel economy numbers could "well exceed" 40 miles per gallon. (Official EPA numbers will be released closer to the car's launch.)
Elsewhere on BMW's New York stand, the company will show off the 3 Series Gran Turismo that debuted at the Geneva Motor Show earlier this month, as well as the Concept Active Tourer that we first saw in Paris last fall. Scroll down for the official press blast.
