Got something this week. :eeps:
(The car, not the house)

Looks nice! Is it a 6MT? Looks like a sport and previous owner put on the M sport wheels?

Congrats:cool:

Sweet. Permanent or temporary? If permanent, addition or replacement (which vehicle)?

Enjoy!

Congrats! (Yes, what did you get rid of?)

Yes and yes. Fil knows me and these cars. The M-Sport wheels have Michelin PSS, non-runflat.

Thanks and good question. I don't know what permanent or temporary mean... :dunno: I guess I have commitment issues.

Nothing sold yet. I guess it'll be a toss up between this and the m3 at the end of the winter. I'll see how it goes.

Cool car ... Give us so details, year, miles,etc ... Also I am betting you are in very good shape ... When parking in your garage your've got 4 flights of stairs to climb to get to the top.

I wish that were my house, but no it isn't, it's the sellers', in another state.

2011 535i RWD 6-speed manual, one owner
42k miles
Titanium silver/venetian beige/light wood
Dynamic Handling Package {seemed to be a must for me, drove cars with and without}
Premium Package
Sport Package {19" style 331 V-spoke, steering wheel, comfort seats, shadow trim)
Cold Weather Package {Heated front & rear seats, steering wheel}
Navigation
Satellite Radio

Included extras:
- 19" style 351 M-Sport wheels with Michelin PSS
- OEM 19" 331 wheels on Pirelli Sottozero Winters.
- BMW Performance Exhaust (sounds just right, car needs a light snarl)
- AC Schnitzer pedals & dead pedal (also good, though I doubt I'd spend the $$$)

Is it my ideal build? No.. But it's mechanically well-kept, with an OCD, over-maintaining previous owner. I would have preferred a chestnut or a brown or some other interior. I'd want fold-down rear seats and some tech options, say backup camera.

There was/is an m-sport at a similar price range, but I prefer a southern DC-area car to MA/New England, as well as not loving black on black that looks like an airport limo on a large car.

Plans:
- roof rack (will arrive in two weeks)
- on the hunt for a spare tire, can buy whole for around $350 or assemble from e60 spare and a tirerack tire and a 15mm spacer
- some tint, I know weird, but will make the light beige feel a bit darker
- black front grille
- chip the n55 one day???

Awesome, congrats!
