Frankly, I wouldn't even make an offer.
Not because the car is in anyway inferior, but because the owner appears convinced the mileage, together with the supposed uniqueness of the E90, will eventually get him the asking price. And he is willing and able to wait for that to happen. Those are strong negotiating headwinds to overcome. And they appear regularly in the California market.
That's why I would suggest looking outside California for your car. Also, I've learned that I need to reign in my emotions when it comes to considering very low mileage cars. I think all 3 year old cars with less than 30k miles on them are equivalent as far as mileage goes. Just something to think about.
