2000 BMW M Roadster (Estoril Blue metallic exterior and Estoril Blue + Black Nappa leather interior) 119,000 miles
It's warm out. Time to buy that sports car convertible you've always wanted.
Highlights:
*It's fast (240 hp), handles well (M tuned chassis) and is rear wheel drive fun. Yet, very safe with head and side airbags, traction control and ABS brakes.
*I often get a thumbs up, comments, praise at the drive through and most think the car is worth a lot more money.
*New tires. 225/45r17 at the front and 245/40r17 at the back
*If you like to tinker, there are many modifications you can make and forums where you can get advice and plenty of places to buy parts.
*Power everything including the top, heated seats and a CD Player.
*The two tone blue/black interior looks fantastic. The leather seats show a little wear but no holes or tears.
*Since I bought the car about 3 years ago, it had been babied in a heated garage with regular oil changes and service.
*Owner's manual, mirror covers and tonneau cover included.
Known issues:
*Oil temp gauge light out
*Like any 15 year old car, the paint isn't perfect upon close inspection. As you can tell from the pics, from a few feet away the car looks sharp despite a few scratches, chips, some paint cracking and a small bit of rust (see pic) on a small panel that is easily replaced.
*Airbag light is on due to faulty passenger sensor
Private party Kelly Blue Book value is over $9000. I'm asking $8,500 OBO. I love this car but it is time to upgrade to a Lotus or Porsche. Feel free to call, text or email me with any questions or to come see the car. 951-217-7285 Paul
