Item Interest
For sale is my 2008 135i Coupe in Sparking Graphite Metallic.

  • Sparkling Graphite Metallic Exterior
  • Black Interior
  • Sport Package
  • Cold Weather Package
  • Glacier Silver Aluminum Trim
  • iPod and USB Adapter
  • HD Radio

Major Repairs/Maintenance
  • OEM Brake Rotors and Pads Replaced at 35k
  • OEM Clutch Replaced with Spec Stage 2+ at 52k miles
  • Turbochargers Replaced by BMW at 55k miles (coolant flush performed and lines replaced at same time)
  • Coils and Spark Plugs Replaced by Me at 60k
  • Electric Water Pump Replaced by Independent at 69k
  • Misc. Vacuum Line Replaced at by Independent Shop at 74k (caused low boost pressure)

This is a very, very clean 2008 SGM 135i that was originally owned by a BMW dealership employee and then converted/sold as a Certified Pre-Owned (CPO) vehicle to myself. Outside of the major repairs and maintenance items listed above, it has received fully synthetic oil changes every 4000-5000 miles, several tire replacements, and a number of miscellaneous items (radio, gas cap, interior trim, etc.) replaced under warranty by the dealer. I had a good relationship with the Service Adviser who was very generous in replacing items that were general wear-and-tear and not typically covered under warranty.

This car has lived it life with two owners - half in Denver, CO and the other half in Houston, TX. When I bought it, I performed a paint correction with Meguire's 105/205, and it has since been protected by Blackfire Wet Diamond Polymer Sealant. I have used Zaino leather cleaner/leather conditioner on the interior and have been meticulous about maintaining the matte look on the steering wheel, gear shifter, and parking brake.

The car is currently sitting on BF Goodrich g-Force Sport COMP-2 tires. The fronts are sitting at 15k miles, with around 3/4mm of remaining tread while the rears were just replaced in November. The fronts could probably use replacing soon.

I've always been OCD about the care/protection of my vehicles and performed all of the suggested maintenance. I believe any enthusiast would appreciate how clean and well taken care of this vehicle has been. It drives tight/solid and performs extremely well when pushed. The modifications are well-suited to the chassis and are very understated; due to the rather stock looks (aesthetically, sound, "driveability"), one would not know this car has been modified until you get into the throttle. When selecting modifications, I choose products that I believed offered the greatest performance without impacting the OEM/stock driveability or simplicity.

The car has current registration and inspection in the state of Texas.

Please email or PM me with any questions you may have. Thanks for looking!



Sad to see her go, but wen

The injectors were replaced via recall early in the vehicles life. Another injector was replaced via warranty around 55k. The HPFP has been replaced under recall.

Hi,

I don't believe I received an email from you. My email is listed above as well:


EDIT - I just checked my gmail spam account and noticed that your email was tagged in that way. I have emailed you with my contact information. My apologies for the confusion.
