Vehicle Detail

THIS CAR IS LITERALLY IN BRAND-NEW, SHOWROOM-FLOOR CONDITION, TO INCLUDE HAVING A FREE-AND-CLEAR TITLE. IT HAS NEVER BEEN REGISTERED. KELLEY BLUE BOOK AGREED THAT THIS CAR—AND OTHER UNUSUAL CASES LIKE IT—DOES NOT FIT THEIR "USED CAR" PARADIGM, SO PLEASE DO NOT USE KBB AS A BASELINE FOR WHAT THIS CAR "SHOULD" BRING. IT IS DISCOUNTED FROM ITS ORIGINAL PRICE BY OVER $20K ALREADY. THANK YOU FOR YOUR INTEREST!! Brand new 2003 BMW M3 Convertible in Titanium Silver/Black Top, 333HP, owned by a BMW CCA member. Beautifully equipped with Grey Nappa Leather interior with Shadow Trim, MSports Seats, M-SMG Gearbox, 18" M Alloys, Park-Distance Control, Xenons, Harmon-Kardon System/CD Changer. Absolutely new and pristine; stored, never registered; maintained and waxed better than regularly; Military-Euro-Purchase; driven only Port to Home, 678 miles total after mechanic's recent testing (all fluids/lines tested and approved, and high-octane racing fuel added during performance check)...she is running like a top and ready for sale. Great deal, huge savings over new, better performance. See photos (including TITLE, proof of mileage, VIN & VIN report) at http://gallery.me.com/vandrakes#100048. Buyer also pays shipping to buyer's location. Please e-mail kgragido@hotmail.com. From the owner's mechanic, after first/independent inspection:"I have this car in my garage as we speak. I am the owner's mechanic and have thoroughly checked out this M3 from top to bottom. The car is in pristine condition; it could sit in the showroom right now and be labeled as a new car. I have tested all the fluids for acidity and contamination, and they all passed with flying colors. I have been a Euro mechanic for over 15 years and I can vouch and put my shop's rep on the line for this car. It has been performance tested, gas has been replaced with 100 octane and all the fuel lines checked. Suspension has been loaded and unloaded and tires checked for flat spots and side wall checked for any weaknesses. The SMG trans has been run through all its gears in auto and manual mode, sport mode and trac control work flawless as well. Interior is flawless; there are no wear lines in the leather, and the paint as smooth as glass. If anyone has any questions about this car feel free to contact me (viparisto93@msn.com), I'll be more than happy to answer any questions pertaining to the car. The car only had 176 miles on the OD in August 2011, but now has 678 due to testing in acceleration, shifting, cornering and braking [and two trips to/from Camarillo for warranty/recall work and PPI]. On a scale of 1 to 10 this is a 10; only thing missing is the window sticker. Feel free to contact me (viparisto93@msn.com) and ask questions; I'm here to help and will answer them honestly. Thanks" The car's mechanic/agent took the car to Steve Thomas BMW in Camarillo, CA for a pre-purchase inspection (PPI) a few weeks ago, where it also received repairs for all BMW recalls between 2003 and October 2011; the PPI results are included at http://gallery.me.com/vandrakes#100048. He included the following comments: "I got the M3 back from Steve Thomas. Those guys are really great guys and they took care of us. There were 4 open recalls on the M3; one was a major one in which they replaced the main bearings in the engine and some other ones were computer upgrades and sensors. Let me tell you, the car ran great! There is a window sticker on the inside of the windshield saying do not exceed 105 mph or 5,500 RPM due to the proper break-in procedures. The car got an oil change and a bath as well. Also, it got a 5-star rating for it being so brand new, and is really liked by all at Steve Thomas." Please see page 22 of the November issue of the Tejas Trax, the Tejas Chapter, BMW CCA's newsletter, for more information about how the car has such low mileage and has never been registered: http://www.tejaschapter.org/trax-lg.pdf.
