I purchased this vehicle through an eBay auction two years ago and immediately had a significant amount of work completed by German Performance Service (GPS) in Brighton, MA including but not limited to the following: New front/rear brake rotors and pads; new center tie rod assembly and front control arms; new radiator and water pump; new drive shaft flex joint. New General UHP tires were also mounted. GPS subsequently replaced the alternator (Bosch), installed a rebuild starter (Bosch) and replaced both rear window regulators. All work completed by GPS utilized OEM or OEM equivalent parts and they also performed regular maintenance as required including oil changes. Mechanically the car is in very good condition; the drivetrain performs well and the motor is strong. I have driven it more than 20,000 miles and it is surprising quick and fairly nimble for a car its size due to the Sport Package, particularly the faster rear end and suspension set-up. The car was originally delivered to and sold in TX (which explains the absence of the cold weather package) and subsequently registered in CA; therefore the condition of the undercarriage and lower body panels is very good; no visible signs of corrosion as noted during a recent BMWCCA undercarriage tech session. Navigation CD's, selected manuals and two keys (one remote) are included. All major systems and accessories work, and there are no dead pixels in the navigation screen or the dashboard. That said, this is not a new car, and it is offered "as is" with no implied or expressed warranty. There a few roof and side panel dings, minor scratches and a bit of curb rash on the rear wheels which I have tried to capture in the photos. The anthracite metallic gray paint is in very good condition generally (there are some minor chips along the front hood line) and the leather sand color interior is intact but shows wear in some places more than others, particularly the driver's seat. The following list includes other issues that are on my cosmetic and maintenance radar; none are major issues that require attention tomorrow, but they will need to be addressed in the near future: tires (left rear tire has a 1-2" gouge; right front tire has a 2-3" sidewall bubble); OBD port cover next to cup holder is loose; passenger side center console arm has a broken hinge; none of the phone accessories were included with the car when I purchased it; rear upper control arms; drive belts; upper timing cover gaskets; front crankshaft oil seal; front sway bar links. I will help you arrange shipping, and I may be able to deliver the car to you if you are located in the NY, NJ, CT, or MA. Bidders with zero feedback scores should contact me before placing a bid.
