• I may also be able to include a floor jack, jack stands, and a few other random supplies if desired

Feel free to ask any questions via PM or on the thread, or let me know if I forgot anything. I currently have a loan out on the car, so the bank is currently holding the title. If you want any specific information or pictures, let me know.

Overall the car is in excellent condition. There are a few rock chips and one small dent in the lower passenger door (presumably from a shopping cart). The dent is on the lower body "water line," and may be repairable by paintless dent removal, but I haven't checked (damn Dent Wizard isn't open on weekends). Exterior maintained with Zaino products and will be polished in the near future when I get a free day. There is one very small chip in the windshield (maybe 5 mm in diameter) that has been there about a year now. The stock wheels have a few minor blemishes, like a rock chip or two, but nothing major.

Interior in excellent shape, with the only potential issue being slight leather wear on the driver's seat bolster (some people have had success getting the dealer to fix this, I would try but don't have time). Leather has been cleaned and conditioned several times per year, along with Aerospace 303 for most other surfaces.

Mechanically it's in excellent condition, with the proper break in schedule followed. The oil has been changed at 7500, 13300, and 17900 miles (the next free BMW dealer oil change will be in September).

Several pictures are presented below and I am working on getting some interior pictures and more current exterior pictures (again when I get some free time). These are mostly of the brand new car when we did PCD in SC.

Snow tires and wheel are also available with the car for $400 (without TPMS). The wheels are Moda R6 wheel powdercoated gunmetal (gray) before last winter. I would honestly call the powdercoating job mediocre, but they are perfect for winter use. The tires are Michelin Pilot Alpin II; two tires are like new, two should be replaced for the next winter. One picture of the winter wheels on the car is shown below.
