Fox red extended leather, Navi, carbon roof etc. Fully loaded, but with the 18" wheels.
1 owner, documented maintenance at Bmw.
9.5 out of 10 condition. Good looks amazing for almost being 8 years old. Owned by an older gentleman.

Paid 36k plus TT&L.

Might have overpaid a little bit, but might be worth it for our babied this car was

I think you paid a fair price. A tad bit less than what I paid for the same car with 21k miles, black interior, and ZCP package. Mine was a 9.5/10 as well.

Do the people having their bearings replaced all have perfect timing? Perhaps they are just helping the customer further validate the replacement, although the drastic wear alone should be enough.

I was almost scared enough by all the posts to have mine swapped out at 21k but I've decided to wait til 40-50k and press my luck.

I said the same thing when I purchased my car at 20k. Now at 38k.
I think if they don't take a dump pre 20k miles it will probably last for a bit. I probably will change them around 60k ish.

Its a gamble but I guess worst case is you get a 4.4L out of it

Honestly sounds like you robbed them. Good pick up!

The owner is asking $34k. Thoughts?

It's the color you want. It's the mileage that we all want. Three pedals, 2 owner, Bluetooth, stock, $1,000 in tires... I would say he knows what his car is worth and you are getting a gem. Welcome to the club and you have earned your first "appreciate". Throw up some pictures after you buy it and I guarantee you will get many more.

True and I can always take solace in the fact that it will be cheaper than buying from EAG.

It's always difficult to place value on a low mileage but oldest model year car. If it's been garaged 24/7 since new and presents as nearly new, to one group of buyers it might be worth something near that price. I would say that having a sunroof is a negative for the market for such a car.

Thanks! Good to know.

I'll probably bring it back to 100% stock, but right now it has Agency power exhaust, KW sleeve overs, CF diffuser, & CF Mirrors caps (cheapo ones).

And where are you guys recommending to source these cars? I'm primarily using this forum, craigslist, ebay, cars.com, and autotrader. Are there any other classifieds that are reccomended?
