    Highlights:
    No rust whatsoever, runs great, extremely clean, sensible suspension modifications, service receipts back to new, clean title.


    Exterior:
    Paint looks very nice. Has a great shine but there are a few minor flaws clearly shown in the photos. Light rock chips over one wheel arch, some paint burned off the mirrors during a buffing, light chips on one quarter panel, some peeling on driver side fender along with small dent, small dent just above rear badge (easily removed with PDR). Standing 10ft from the car it looks superb and if you swapped out the mirrors and fender, it'd be 9/10. Glass is all original BMW and has no damage. Truly has 0 rust, even under the battery. The previous owner always garaged it alongside his E30 M3 and I garage it 80% of the time.

    Interior:
    Unbelievably clean. 1 wear spot on the driver seat but other than that, the leather is healthy and supple with no cracks. Carpeting look amazing. The dash has 1 TINY crack on it. I've cleaned and kept the leather up with Lexol products.

    Power-train:
    Motor pulls smoothly and strong. Everything running just as it should. All original, non-modified. A/C system functions but does not blow cold. Recent coolant change with Pentofrost and oil change with Castrol 20w50. Recent driveshaft center support bearing and guibo so no slop or vibrations. Tight shifter with M3 knob and smooth gearbox. Recent clutch slave cylinder and stainless line. Has factory LSD which works very well. Team Dynamics super lightweight 15x7 4 lug wheels -- the choice of many Pro3 people. Exhaust has no resonator so it's a little loud with the windows down but is perfect with the windows up.

    Suspension:
    Bilstein HD dampers and H&R OE Sport+ springs lower it about 1.5" and give a great ride that blends good handling and road holding with enough comfort for daily driving and long trips. I love this suspension setup. All installed about 8k miles ago so PLENTY of life to go.

    Electrics:
    Everything but cruise works. No lights illuminated on the check panel. Stereo system is an Alpine CDE-HD148BT head unit (Bluetooth and HD radio), Lukebox sub-woofer enclosure installed cleanly with 10" Infinity 1062w sub-woofer, Planet Audio AC1800.5 amplifier and original Premium Sound for a spectacular sound.

        Lowering the price to $4500. I think $5,100 was a little much.

          Can't believe no one bought it.

          This is an extremely well kept example.

            I saw this car. It is a really clean, unmolested example that's getting harder to find. Marshall was patient and accommodating with me, a good guy.

              Why are there other engine pictures, and how many miles are on the chassis, and engine?

                  I will upload some engine bay pictures today. Can't believe I forgot those! There are 240,000mi on engine and chassis. Original motor.
