Inspected – including brakes, parking brake, headlights, lights, signals, steering, suspension, tires, wheels,

system, floor pan.
I did have it inspected twice (once independently and once at the dealer) prior to purchase to ensure it did not
have the sub frame issue that has affected a few of these cars – it did not have it, and I purchased the car as
proof. I have never done anything even remotely aggressive with it, so that would not have changed.
₁ I did not receive a front license plate bracket when I bought it, but have not needed one in VA as they are not
mandatory. They are $20 and I will include if you want or need one. I like the front without it.
₂ There are no rips, wrinkles, creases, gouges, stains or anything. There is an ever so slight rubbing on the
drivers outer bolster where your backside brushes against it as you sort of drop into the car (I am 6’3” and it
is a long way down). Most people would consider it perfect but I want to be conservative in my assessments.
It’s the same in my M6 – the Roadster is in better shape actually, so it seems pretty normal.
I am totally OCD – particularly with my cars, and have extra cars for cold, hot, and wet weather, so:
Never driven in the snow, slush, or rain
Garaged – even at work
No accidents
No pets
Non-smoker
Always adult owned and driven
No abuse (never seen the yellow line while I have owned it)
Never tracked (I have never even squeaked the tires)
No rattles
No shakes
No squeaks ₃
No leaks
No smells
Tight! Steering, dash, everything.
No window chips
Everything works
There is one ‘I can’t even call it a’ scratch; my son brushed the lower rocker with his pedal car. Plus 2
tiny rock chips. Pics included. Other than that, there is not a mark on it. We had a very tough time getting a
picture of any of them – especially the mark on the rocker as it doesn’t have any texture and is still the same
color as the paint.
₃ When the hard top is installed a little squeaking can occur while the roof settles. Normally I gently
retighten the four mounting points after a few days. When you get it, it will likely have the hardtop installed,
so you may hear a little of this.
I have maintained it faithfully and only driven it calmly (story below). It is a great car and I pamper it.
Service has been uneventful: oil/filter changes (only with BMW filters and the factory and warranty prescribed
Castrol TWS Motorsport 10W-60 – most recently performed at 34, 000 miles), new tires at 28, 000, a new battery at
33, 000, a coil pack, exhaust and intake cam sensors, a rotor bearing at 33.5. I replaced the rearview mirror when
the LCD seal failed and have had it upgraded to an electronic/electrostatic dimmer. I replaced a piece of trim
that the inside tab had broken off of the A pillar.
