Purchased with 42,500 miles. Car presently has about 79,000 miles. Have enjoyed for 2 years and put the majority of miles on during highway driving via weekly trips to Peoria for consulting work, about 400 miles round trip weekly. Bosch oil filters and Mobil1 10w30 until a few months ago when I switched over to Amsoil synthetic. Very easily accessible oil filter in BMW's, changes performed every 3000 miles. Bridgestone Potenzas performance tires on front (225) and rear (245) Z-rated. Double spoke OEM ///M rims. Recently replaced OEM rotors and pads in rear (last 1000 miles). Supercharger kit put on around 55,000 miles. Kit uses the Vortech supercharger (preferred to Powerdyne kit also put out by Dinan) and brings the car to 265whp, estimated ~310 engine hp.

Of the cars I have driven I have yet to find one that gives the same feel when turning as this car. This is surely one of the things I will miss most as I purchase my next car.

Also available:
Unmounted X-brace - first step for suspension
Sunglass holder replacement with gauge holders
Nordskog boost gauge
Nordskog a/f gauge
BMW car cover

Reason for sale: looking to split the sale money amongst another car and the down payment on a house.

3M/xpel "clear" (special kind of tape) car bra - can be seen on the pics on the front of the hood, light reflecting a little differently on it. Tough to notice unless close to car in real life. Some rust-like residue on inside lip of front rims I believe came from original install of aftermarket pads/rotors, probably can be cleaned if you know what you're doing but what I have tried hasn't gotten it off yet.

Asking $21,500
