I always say "there is a reason a car makes it to looking this great with higher miles...someone took [proper] care of it!" I apologize in advance for the less than stellar pictures. This time of year nets early sundown (it was 3:30 during this shoot) thrown in with undesirable gloomy days. Sadly there are some dim pictures. I assure you, on my excellent reputation, that this 2 owner car will EXCEED your expectations in person! The exterior is GORGEOUS! ZERO visible rust to be found. I am presenting the car to you exactly the way I received it, as traded-in at a local new car store! Barely any dings. NO dents. Minimal rock chips. Front and rear bumper covers look great save for a few typical chips. No damages. No cracks. Minimal front lower edge scratches...all unseen unless you get on the ground to look for it. I'm no bodyman but I can't see any signs of a repaint or accident repair. Everything matches as if from the factory. Throw a professional buff detail at it and the exterior is an easy 9+ out of 10! As you can see above, the bumper cover looks great! Headlight lenses have minimal dullness, if any. No cracks or damages here either. Super straight driver side panels sporting minimal scratches. Matching Firestones at every corner look recently replaced with 80+% treadlife left. ALL ride on vibration free, damage free rims. Unseen are the nearly new front brakes. Rear pads are thin and will probably need pad only replacement in a year or so. No pulsing, grinding, or noises. Brakes can and will throw you thru the dash if needed! Rear bumper cover looks great. Only a small paint cracked area on the top left...unseen unless you are standing over the top looking down. Minor scuffs. All removable if desired. No damages otherwise. Note the VIN sticker on the trunklid. Speaking of lid, no rust to be found under this typical rust location. ALL exterior illumination works as it should. Below, the passenger side is super straight too. I did FINALLY find a small ding on the passenger lower door. Easily dentbusted. I really can't stress the lack of dings on the car overall. If you stare REAL hard at the pic above...at the door at almost the lowest part of the lower body line in the center portion...the ding is visible at this angle. Nice medium window tint compliments the car while protecting you and your interior. The engine compartment is spectacular! Nice and clean yet not all greased up with shiny stuff. Oil and coolant are clean. No signs of any major oil or coolant leaks. No spots left on my shop floor overnight. Underside of car looks great. No overheating. Battery is super strong and fires the engine right up. Engine runs quietly and pulls strongly under any acceleration. Transmission shifts as it should thru all gears. Drivetrain is quiet. No pops, squeaks or rattles from the suspension. Nice and tight in fact. Car drives straight and smooth over any pavement with no unusual pulling or wandering. Interior is a 9.5+ all day...Only thing nicer would be a brand new one! I HATE smoke and can't see or smell ANY signs of a former smoker. In fact, the cigarette lighter is perfect, never been used! Steering wheel and button controls are excellent. Driver's bolster is barely worn. Had to use the flash to display the inside which will show some reflections. I actually shot both with flash on then off, then picked the best one. Carpet is clean. Leather is near perfect. No cuts, tears, or damages. Doorpanels look near showroom new. Buttons/controls are barely worn, most look untouched. Pick any spot and eat off it! Above and below you can see that ALL of the dummy lights illuminate upon startup with NONE staying on during run. All the info panel pixels on dash are working.Below that you can see the dash is perfect. The Radio Display and Climate Control pixels are all readable. ALL the power items work as they should: power front windows, power rear vent windows, sunroof, ICE COLD AIR CONDITIONING (from what I could feel in the 37degree day-AC pump actuates), HOT HEAT, heated power front seating, digital climate controls, steering wheel controls, cruise, traction control, transmission modes, mirrors, locks, passenger mirror lowering in reverse, etc! Above, altho a dim pic, the rear seats look barely sat in. Seriously. Below there is an original unopened BMW issued kit included. Factory floormats are in great condition but for some reason the driver's side is missing. Unseen is the complete full sized spare setup, aired up ready for your roadtrip home! With the exception of a missing wrench, the toolkit looks complete. Above you can see the passenger seat bolster is also barely worn. Again, the flash adding reflective streaks and crannies to the picture that the eye wouldn't see. Below...the original factory issued pile of manuals!! Valet/backup key, unopened Audio CD, Certified Pre-Owned packet, 75xxx mile service maintenance sheet from BMW showing the lonnnnggg checklist of certified service performed at that interval. Unseen is the one factory working keyfob/ignition key. All the goodies, NO RESERVE!! Inspect my EXCELLENT feedbacks. BID, BUY, and DRIVE ANYWHERE with 100% CONFIDENCE! I have personally driven this car for about 50 or so miles. Not a single complaint or issue to mention. In fact, the entire time I kept saying how awesome this car is...can't wait to find it a new home! GOOD LUCK! PLEASE READ THE ENTIRE AD AND THE CONTENTS BELOW!!PLEASE REMEMBER: This vehicle is a USED vehicle, not new, USED. Specifically an 11 year old car with 160+k miles. Since this is my source of income, I cherry-pick each vehicle to sell. I ALWAYS pass on any vehicle unworthy of your family and hard earned money. As with ALL my NO RESERVE auctions, you will be in a position to buy this car for a FRACTION of it's original purchase price. These vehicles are all versions that I would own. I do the best that I can (personally doing everything from start to finish) in a short period of time to drive, inspect, repair, clean, pic and list the cars I sell. I will bet that your local dealership isn't providing this personal service. If they do?? Awesome. They should. But I guarantee you it's at a premium. I don't tolerate tire-kicking and nitpicking. I work hard to offer you the best that I have available to me. Doesn't matter if it's a $1500 or a $15,000 vehicle. Inspect my feedbacks, I don't sell junk and treat all my buyers as friends. I expect the same in return, please. GOOD LUCK! I am looking forward to doing business with you!The venue of sale is Will County, Illinois.
