I saw 47833 at the Home Depot in Fairfield Connecticut on Saturday (11/2/13). Talked with the owner. The car has an interesting background. Supposedly it was a BMW Exec car. It ended up with a few bullet holes in it at the port. Shipped back to Germany for repairs. Eventually sold to this owner. He and his family had bought 25 or so BMWs so the dealership liked them and they got the car (VO with nav as best as I could see). He said about 10,000 miles on the clock. It was on a New York registration/plates (I took a pic of the NY reg sticker plus I gave hime my card).

As I typed this, maybe the order was goofy. Maybe this is how it went:
Shipped to NJ Port and received "special edition" bullet holes. More work than the port wants to address and ship back to the motherland. Shipped back to the BMW exec, and then retailed when it went out of BMWNA's hands (silly exec should have held on to it!).
