Seller Description

I purchased this beautiful car in 2008 with 30K miles on the clock. It was love at first sight! Here I am in 2012 selling my baby to finance a more family friendly E46 M3.

New Pads & Rotors - Front and Rear@ 32K Miles

Needs new tires – I was going to do this in the spring.

Performance- Perfect!
I bought and installed the VF Engineering S/C in July 2011 as my “reward” for finishing grad school. (Seemed like a good excuse) My motivation wasn’t to make a road rocket, but to liven the Z up a bit. Ummm, mission accomplished!

Interior- Excellent
I have completely replaced the entire stereo. Alpine head-unit with ipod cable inside armrest, Polk Pro 6.5 components, Infinity Kappa 4’s, 8” Kicker L7 in a custom box, and a 750 watt kicker 5 channel amp. The sound is clear & clean while cruising at 70 MPH. I absolutely love listening to music in this car.

BAV Ultimate Mats, Factory “M” Mats are underneath (I don’t think the “M” Mats have seen daylight)

Slight crinkling of the leather on driver side bolster (I am picky)

All Interior bits are in excellent shape!

No glove-box sag - I have the kit as a preventative measure (not installed yet)

Some seat movement - I have the seat angle kit (not installed yet)

Exterior- Almost Perfect
Regularly washed & Waxed, never driven in snow/rain

Top is perfect – Tonneau cover included

No Sub-Frame Issues

A few rock chips

P/O pulled nose over a curb, Scratched under the nose

P/O slight curb rash on front-left wheel

P/O small ding driver-side door (Barely visible – again, I am picky)

I have the clear title in hand. Please see the VIN# in my picture gallery on flickr:

Price is $18k – This is a beautifully upgraded car that needs only a new set of tires and a home!

My Comments

Sold 11/14/12 - Traded into Enthusiast Auto for an M5

I love the color combo, and of course the almost new supercharger is nice too. It's obviously been very well cared for an maintained with a ton of preventative maintenance including the all important cooling system updates. I think it's priced pretty well all things considered.
