Close. 34,250.

Mine had like 7-8k less miles on it when I bought it for 36k in 08. Crazy.

'new' I-drive is a fantasic interface. Everything after 2010 they got right. Pre-2010 is miserable.

You're going to have a pretty low cost of ownership when you sell yours!

Score. It's Le Mans Blue, as well, no? Highly desirable color. How many miles on it now?

I think Theo's is a really rare oxford green. I think it is black inside, but forget. Regardless it is a really nice example.

I wish it was lemans. My fav E39 color.

It's carbon black/silverstone (black leather with gray inserts on the seats and doors)

98k at the moment.

There is a recent pic in the post a pic of your car thread.

That's a solid color combo, too. It's amazing how well those cars have done in the used market.

I know you have had several V8 Auto E38's but why this why 6spd's were available?
