FIRST, THIS CAR IS BEING RE-LISTED DO TO NON-PAYING BIDDER, THE BIDDER HAD A CHANGE IN THEIR PERSONAL LIFE THAT DIDN'T ALLOW THEM TO COMPLETE THE TRANSACTION. THIS IS A VERY NICE 850I. IT RUNS EXCELLENT, IS AN AUTOMATIC AND SHIFTS AS IT SHOULD WITH NO ISSUES, NO SMOKE, AND IS MECHANICALLY SOUND. THE PAINT IS IN GREAT CONDITION FOR ITS YEAR BUT CONSIDERING ITS 18 YEARS OLD ITS NOT PERFECT, IT DOES HAVE A FEW BLEMISHES AND THERE ARE A FEW SMALL DINGS BUT NOTHING THAT DETRACTS FROM THE OVERALL EXCELLENT CONDITION AS YOU CAN SEE IN THE PICS. THE INTERIOR IS NEARLY PERFECT, NO STAINS ON THE SEATS, FLOORS, OR HEADLINER. NO TEARS IN THE LEATHER AND THERE IS ONE QUARTER SIZE RUB MARK IN THE LOWER LEFT SEAT BOLSTER ON THE DRIVER SEAT THAT WOULDN'T APPEAR IN THE PICTURES. THE POWER SEATS ALL WORK AS WELL AS THE WINDOWS. THE TRUNK LOOKS AS IF NOTHING WAS EVER PUT IN IT AND THE TOOL KIT IS THERE AND APPEARS TO BE COMPLETE. THE OWNER'S MANUAL IS INCLUDED AND IS ALSO COMPLETE. OVERALL THE CAR IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION AND THESE CARS WITH UNDER 100K MILES ARE BECOMING INCREASINGLY RARE. NOW, SINCE IT IS 18 YEARS OLD LETS TALK ABOUT SOME OF THE NEGATIVES. THE PASSENGER SEAT WORKS IN ALL DIRECTIONS EXCEPT UP AND DOWN, I WAS TOLD BE A BMW MECHANIC THAT ITS A SIMPLE FIX AND ITS COMMON ON OLDER BMW'S, THE CABLE GETS BOUND SO IT NEEDS ABOUT AN INCH REMOVED AND THEN RE-ATTACHED, YOU CAN HERE THE MOTOR WORKING SO ITS NOT THAT SO THATS EASY. THE PASSENGER POWER WINDOW WORKS FINE BUT WHEN OPENED FROM THE OUTSIDE IT IS SUPPOSED TO DROP ABOUT HALF AN INCH BUT IT IS NOT, IT WILL WHEN OPENED FROM THE INSIDE, I WAS TOLD THAT THE INSIDE AND OUTSIDE HANDLE HAVE A SWITCH THAT CAN SOMETIMES GO BAD AND THAT IS NORMALLY THE CULPRIT. THE OBC DISPLAY WORKS FINE BUT THERE ARE A FEW PIXLE ISSUES, SOMETIMES IT WILL WORK PERFECT SOMETIMES THEY GO IN AND OUT, THE ISSUE IS THE SOLDER POINTS GET OXIDIZED OVER TIME WHERE THE DISPLAY BOARD IS SOLDERED TO THE UNIT, I WAS TOLD THIS WAS AN EASY FIX, OR IT CAN BE SHIPPED OUT AND FIXED AND RETURNED. I charged the air conditioner when I first got the car and I got into it the other day and the a/c was less then adequate, it was 97 degrees here in athens that might have had something to do with it but i charged it again AND ITS BEEN FINE SINCE so the a/c may need to be looked at, it blew like ice after i charged it though so hopefully thats what it needed and it lasts awhile. THE LAST ISSUE IS THIS CAR CAME WITH A CAR PHONE BUT I DON'T HAVE THE PHONE BUT IT WOULD BE USELESS ANYWAY SO I WOULD RECOMMEND GETTING A NICE STEREO PUT IN, I WANTED TO FIND THE PHONE TO KEEP IT ALL ORIGINAL BUT THAT WAS JUST ME. THE TIRES HAVE PLENTY OF TREAD LEFT SO THAT ISN'T AN ISSUE AND THE HYDRAULIC BRAKE ACCUMULATOR OTHERWISE KNOWN AS THE "BRAKE BOMB' WAS JUST REPLACED SO THE BRAKES ARE LIKE NEW. THERE IS A SLIGHT WINE COMING FROM THE POWER STEERING BUT THE POWER STEERING WORKS FINE AND THERE IS NO LEAK, SO I WOULD IMAGINE THAT ITS FINE BUT JUST WANTED TO DISCLOSE. ALL IN ALL ITS AN EXCELLENT CAR IN GREAT CONDITION AND WOULD MAKE A BMW ENTHUSIAST VERY HAPPY. I TRIED TO BE AS DETAILED AND FORTH COMING WITH ANY ISSUES SO THE NEW OWNER KNOWS EXACTLY WHAT THEY ARE GETTING AND CAN BE CONFIDENT IN THEIR DECISION. THIS IS A NO RESERVE AUCTION, THE HIGHEST BIDDER GETS THE CAR. IF IT GOES OVER $10K I WILL INCLUDE SHIPPING TO THE LOWER 48 STATES UP TO $1000 DOLLARS. A $500 NONREFUNDABLE DEPOSIT IS DUE WITHIN 24 HOURS OF THE AUCTION END AND THE REST IS DUE WITHIN 4 DAYS. PLEASE FEEL FREE TO EMAIL ME WITH ANY QUESTIONS, CHECK MY FEEDBACK, I HAVE BEEN DOING THIS AWHILE AND I MENTION THAT BECAUSE I WILL NOT SHIP THE CAR UNTIL I GET PAID. TO FURTHER VERIFY I'M LEGIT, AFTER I RECEIVE THE DEPOSIT I WILL EMAIL YOU A PDF OF THE TITLE SO YOU CAN SEE THAT IT MATCHES THE CAR AND IT GIVES YOU MY INFO AND THE CAR'S. IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO INSPECT THE CAR I WELCOME IT, I'M HERE IN ATHENS GA AND WILL BE HAPPY TO SHOW IT. THANKS FOR LOOKING.
