Beautiful Low Mile 2 OWNER Laurel BMW New Car Store Trade Metallic Black AWD 3-series!! NO RESERVE!! If you haven't already, have a gander at the last BMW I sold and received a positive feedback for. That one was a great specimen. THIS one is a STELLAR specimen! This one has LESS miles, is NEWER, an AWD....AND overall better condition! Exterior is a beaut! 8+ out of 10. Excellent shine. No signs of any accidents, repairs or major paintwork. Front and rear bumper covers look awesome. No dents. MAYBE a few dings. No major scratches and whatever ones ARE there, are easily buffed out if desired. Below you can see the 80+% treadlife Continental Extreme tires ride on super duper clean rims with no noticeable damages. Wheels are vibration free at any speeds. Unseen are the strong brakes ready to stop in an instant with no grinding and only a teeny pulse up front that seems to occur randomly and not consistently. Not worth cutting rotors until it's next brake job miles and miles down the road. Superb shine all over. Black is so awesome especially when it's clean!! This car proves it with minimal scratches and chips. No dents. I wish I could tell you all about how I touched up every chip and chunk....but I didn't touch the car save for the couple tiny rust bubble areas...I hooked up my wire brush on the drill...spun the crusty paint off...cleaned with naval jelly (a rust buster) and touched up with matching paint. I have provided the matching pics so you can see the work. Otherwise the car didn't need any touching up. Below is a small spot below the left tail light. Below you can see the typical BMW rust spot. The metallic black touchup paint matches nicely. Note the near perfect vinyl trim. All exterior illumination works perfectly. Above....the last of the tiny rust areas...smaller than a nickel...brushed, naval jellied and touched up...you wouldn't even notice it until I pointed it out. Headlights have minimal fading spots...mostly on the lower areas. Clear as glass otherwise. Wetsand and buff and they are like new. Grills are obviously not stock chrome versions. They actually are excellent replacements to the rattly originals. The front bumper cover is amazingly spotless. You can see the ONE noticeable tiny 2 inch crack below...and I promise you, that you wouldn't see it until you wiped the car down. How many sellers on eBay point these little things out?!? ONLY me. Rock chips are at a minimum here too. Interior is a 9+ all day. Note the steering wheel above and driver's bolster below. The ONLY thing better than this interior is new. Buttons aren't worn and crusty. Leather isn't cracked. Carpet is amazing. I HATE smoke an can't see or smell ANY signs of a former smoker. EVERYTHING power works as far as I can tell over the 350+ miles that I drove the car. Power windows, power locks, power mirrors, power sunroof, Heated power front seats, power trunk, steering wheel controls, cruise, AM/FM/CD player with aftermarket AUX input, digital climate control with no dead pixels, ICE COLD AIR CONDITIONING, Hot Heat, interior lighting, HomeLink, auto dimming rearview, etc!! Above and below you can see ALL the dummy lights come on during startup with NONE staying on during run!! No lights on when I picked it up. No lights came on EVER during the hundreds of miles I put on the car. 249.6 miles on the tripOmeter shows how many I logged from the last gas station stop. No dead pixels. Yes the overhead car view display works, but had no doors or trunk open or lights out to show function. Scroll back up to an earlier pic to see for yourself. Dashboard is perfect. Center console, woodgrain trim and shift knob look great. Center armrest is minty. Below you can see the professionally installed AUX input...great for music, etc. Car is 100% ready to go. Not one thing to complain about, especially the interior. Above...majority of the factory tool kit is intact. Below the factory issued floormats look great and compliment the excellent interior. Rear license plate frame ready to bolt on. Unseen is the recently replaced Dealer installed BMW battery. Spare full sized rim is clean and intact with the spare setup. Tire is decent enough for an emergency and is aired up for your trip home! Above you will enjoy the ENTIRE factory issued manuals, business cards, disks and even an unopened leather key holster and unopened BMW info kit still in wrappers!! One working keyless entry keyfob/key and one original valet key. Finally....the heart of this awesome vehicle...the uber clean engine and compartment! Genuine BMW battery fires the perfectly running engine right up. No noises. No smoking. All power. Underneath, I saw signs of a small oil leak yet no spots on my shop floor overnight. Pulling the plastic covers, it seemed as if the oil drain plug was weeping oil. A quick degreasing of the bottom area and a snugging of the not fully tightened drain plug and the small leak appears to be cured. I would replace the plug gasket at the next oil change. That said, the oil is clean. The coolant is clean with no leaks or overheating. Transmission operates as it should thru every gear. No drivetrain noises or issues. In fact, it looks to have a new front CV halfshaft and control arm bushing. Wiggles and jiggles show me no bad or loose suspension parts. No popping, rattling or squeaking over bumps. The car drives straight and smooth with no vibrations or unusual pulling or wandering over any pavements. Even at 70-80 mpg. Brakes will throw you thru the dashboard if needed. Front pads look to have 40% pad left and rears about 70%. The car needs nothing. I'm sure you have already...inspect my excellent feedbacks. BID, BUY and DRIVE ANYWHERE with 100% CONFIDENCE!! I have. Clean clear title and paperwork in hand ready to go! NO RESERVE!! GOOD LUCK!! PLEASE READ THE ENTIRE AD AND THE CONTENTS BELOW!!PLEASE REMEMBER: This vehicle is a USED vehicle, NOT NEW, used.

For 15 years now, 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.
