Wow... Car is a 6MT competition pack slicktop speedcloth sedan by vin decode; WBSPM9C58BE202999. LeMans blue, not IB.

Kind of a shame it wasn't stored correctly in the 7 year hiatus it had. Probably actually priced correctly even with the inaccuracies/omissions/doc error? Feels like a car EAG would be interested in cleaning up and marking up.

(Yes, the car was not driven in 7 years with zero miles added).
I used a great Bimmer mechanic to restore the car, including all the fluids, tires, idrive (was not response), battery, brakes. also I had a body shop repainted the roof, front bumper, left front fender, rear quarter panel due to mark of sunburn.
all right side of cars, hood, rear bumper, all doors are original paint.
The car drives flawless with zero problem. it has people's attention when on the street. shinning and loud.

The good:
Manuel 6 speed.
All original parts.
Navigation
4 doors.
Interlagos blue.
Super low mileage and current is at 10,700.
factory carbon fiber on front bumper, rear spoiler, and mirror cover. (see pics)
upgraded sound system.
reverse camera installed.
no dent or scratch at all on all doors and bumpers.
title in hand.

The issue:
Roof has small dent on driver side, you don't see it unless really close.
rear carbon fiber spoiler has sign of age.
This is fun to drive, so I use this car as my daily drive to work, slowly add 30 miles each day.
title has 14000 miles which I made error with DMV when transfer to my name, it was 4000 in 2019. so I did not bother to go back to DMV to amend it.

This car is like new-used car, you don't see anything similar will be on the market again, so make your offer asap.

PS, I sell it because I am new car guy and truck guy, I want to get myself a 2021 F150.

$51k

Half the car has been repainted and they didn't even bother to fix a dent on the roof before spraying, incorrect mileage on the title and you think this guy should price it higher?

OP do yourself a favor and put some mileage on the car before selling it to get it higher than your title shows. I'd be happy to help out with that if you need. You can't trade this in and a dealer can't buy it based on the mileage discrepancy because it will cause the carfax to show odometer rollback which will significantly hurt the value of the car.

Was the car stored outside in the sun for the 7 years it wasn't driven?

Yeah you can’t sell this car with the mistake on the title. Take a few trips up and down the coast otherwise you’re literally going to brand it rollback as soon as you sell it.

Otherwise to any logical buyer the car was actually rolled back and repainted to try to cover it.

Beautiful spec otherwise.

Looking at these pictures again, you can't expect to fetch top dollar for a car like this with:
-A faulty odometer reading (if you truly made a mistake, I would be doing everything in my power to try to correct the odometer reading at the DMV - that is a $10,000 mistake you made and you seem to be acting like it's no big deal). The DMV should have a correction process, and if you did a bunch of service the odometer reading should be on those records.
-The car looks poorly kept. I bought my car with 52k miles and this was the engine bay:
The amount of dirt sitting inside the engine bay makes it look like this car DID have a rolled back odometer, or was sitting in a dirty salt water port in customs holding for years and there risk being major repairs needed for bushings, belts and other areas prone to corrosion. That can be validated by a PPI, but someone needs to want to invest $500 to get to that point to prove the story checks out.
-The interior shots seem to show a decent amount of wear too, threads peeling out of the floor mats, stain on the seat, garbage on the passenger seat?

Fix the title, spend $500 on a proper detail, call a Paintless Dent guy to see if theres a possibility to repair the roof without a full respray, and do the homework to document the life of the car if you are going to try to fetch 50K.

Otherwise, this car is a great spec with a rollback title and you are hoping whatever buyer believes your story and is willing to buy a rare spec with limited resale value. You're probably looking at $25-30k at that point.

I don't understand how anyone can seriously post ads like this. OP, you'll have to be more conscientious if you want top dollar.

Yikes... I was expecting a mint condition car... the engine bay alone and mileage is enough for me to stay clear from it. I'd love a ZCP.
