THE OVERVIEW Offered for an appreciating new owner at NO RESERVE is this ONE-OWNER 2008 BMW 550i SEDAN purchased new here in the S.F, bay area! Finished in "Carbon" black metallic over black "Dakota" leather hides, this M Sport E60 sedan has been driven just over 116,500 original Carfax-documented miles since new right here in the San Francisco Bay area for $71,670!. This loaded 550i features the 360 horsepower 4.8 liter 32 vale Valvetronic Vanos engine mated to the rare and desirable factory 6 speed manual transmission, Sport package [$4,600] which includes 19" double spoke alloy wheels with Michelin Super Sport rubber, sport steering wheel, multi-contour front seats, shadowline trim and aerodynamic package, Active steering [$1,400], rear sunshades [$575], fold-down rear seats with ski bag [$475], ipod and usb adaptor [$400], navigation system [$1,900], premium sound with DSP [$1,200], anthracite headliner [$500], bamboo anthracite trim, park distance control, satellite radio [$595], xenon headlights and lots more! Offered here at NO RESERVE, this BMW is being sold with clean and clear California title, factory manual, and, it's a great value...for about the cost of the sales tax alone on a new quickly-depreciating 5 series! THE BODY AND TRIM The exterior of this eleven year-old BMW is in good to very good, dry, clean 99.99% rust-free condition overall. The paint has a very nice overall gleam to the finish. In addition to one repaired crack on the front spoiler and some curb rash on the once-refinished wheels, there are a few expected rock nicks, scratches and other blemishes to the body finish commensurate to what one would expect. Overall this is still one handsomely striking E60 with a nice stance and a powerful presence.THE INTERIOR As I hope is articulated in the photos, the interior of this non-smoker 2008 BMW is in excellent condition overall with nearly ALL systems, from the cold a/c to the heated electric leather seats, windows and sunroof to the factory stereo to the rear sun shade, are in excellent working order. Minor imperfections inside the car include a bad passenger seat buckle sensor, the remote key locks but does not UNlock the doors, along with some light wear to the leather and other trim surfaces. Overall, this is one clean and comfortable E60 cockpit. THE DRIVING EXPERIENCE This 2008 550i starts perfectly and runs fabulously with superb torquey power and smooth shifting transmission, excellent braking and suspension, steering and tracking down the road. There is a slight wheel shimmy but otherwise this car cruises effortlessly well into triple digit speeds! DETAILS AND $$$$ 1.
