Beautiful, Love it. How do you like the roof, just found it online for $1500. Not bad for the quality and look of the e92. Always thought that should have been an option on the e90.

It looks really good in person. I've seen carbon fiber parts before start turning into a piss yellow color but that is not the case so far.

Holy cow! That car was really something! How about that slide out tray in the trunk???
It sure was loaded up from the factory. Nice, nice, nice.

1 month update on the car:
So I purchased the car one month ago and it has been in service for over half of the time I have owned the vehicle. Carmax had issues ordering the right headlight and I still think they ordered the wrong headlight since it does not move like the other headlight moves with adaptive lighting on. I decide to make another service appointment with carmax in a few weeks to look at the headlight again and look at another minor issue but I wanted to drive the car for a week to see if anything else needed fixing before my 30 day warranty ran out (as long as you report it in the 30 day window, you can get it fixed whenever and still be covered). In the mean time I got some miles on the car and it is truly a joy to drive. Last Monday on March 4th, I made an appointment with BMW to get the Blower Motor and Air Bag recall done. It was suppose to only take 4 hours or so... well 8 days later they still have my car. I am being told that "they had to have someone from Germany remotely tap in to do the recalls" for some reason.... and that the "DKG MODULE now needs to be replaced and the cost is $5,500." The dealership is "awaiting approval from BMW to pay for the service." Honestly I am a little confused to how taking my car in for the basic recalls have led to a damaged DKG Module because I do not think they are even related. Anyone every here of this happening? |

Great buy! know when the cf roof was installed? how did they get the interior roof liner if the car had a sunroof before. Also, I'm wondering if they put any protective coating on top of the roof to protect it over the years? I'm very interested on doing this to my car. Good luck w the car.

So I called the BMW dealership and the issue is not the dkg module, it's the mechatronic unit. According to the service advisor BMW approved it and is going to foot the bill. The mechatronic unit will be in Friday but the car more than likely won't be done until Monday. Still unsure how it was damaged... |

This car was a steal, especially with the warrenty and the roof customization. Hope everything goes smoothly with the repairs, my 2011 was at BMW for two months shortely after I took delivery, never actually got a solid answer what was wrong with it so I feel your pain

Crazy to hear of these issues.
New headlights need to be coded in. I wouldn't think Carmax has the software to do this correctly but it should be a simple solution. The carbon roof on this car has plenty of clear coat on it. It's not going to yellow. Carbon yellowing over time is due to UV exposure to the resin or original gel coat. Many CF vendors claim to have UV gel coat applied (in the mold = lol) but really all carbon parts should have 2k urethane clear applied after receiving. DKG is the German abbreviation for Mechatronics. Same thing. I wouldn't put the dealership above any blame or suspicion. These recall items are usually done in a rush with the techs often pushing the envelope with safety in an effort to do the job faster. It is entirely possible that the tech purposefully didn't disconnect the battery and accidentally shorted the module. Or who knows...Don't expect an honest explanation of what went wrong- they'll pay the blame game. You're getting a lot of freebies on top of a steal of a price for the car. The inconvenience is worth the outcome. |

From my service advisor, I’m glad they are taking care of it. So far I’ve gotten the hood and trunk actuators replaced, a new oil cap, a new driver side headlight, offered 4 new tires, and a new mechatronics unit without having to pay anything and getting to drive a loaner car. The car itself drives and looks fantastic and I am more than happy with the purchase. |

After repairing the fuel pump, replacing idle control device, replacing the fuel tank breather with no resolution it ultimately came down to leaking fuel injectors.
