This car was originally bought from 1addicts way back in 2014.

The original owner was a great guy and took amazing care of the car. He specc’d the car tastefully with emphasis on weight saving (manual non-heated seats, no BMW iDrive).
I have also tried to take good care of the care during my ownership as well. Currently has 101.5k miles. Car drives smooth. Has
never been in an
accident. Although the car may seem like it has alot of performance parts, most of it was done to unrestrict the engine and help it breathe and flow better. Reason for selling is I recently purchased a M2C.
Because this car has been my daily driver for the past 6 years, I have tried to stay ahead with preventative maintenance and fluid changes. I am also a self-admitted granny driver. Car has
never been launched, raced, or tracked, just the occasional highway on-ramp pull. Car rarely ever sees higher than 5500rpm- one of the few times was for the data logging for the tune. Oil changed every 3k-3.5k miles. I
religiously use Shell V-Power 93 octane gas (will go out of my way to make sure its Shell). Also, I
always let the car idle for at least 1-2 minutes prior to driving.
Exterior overall is in good/great shape considering it's a 2009. Does have some rock chips on the hood and a couple other places in the car. Overall, the paint is in great condition for its age. Gets washed often and Klasse High-Gloss Sealant is applied twice per year. The front bumper has various rock chips on it from throughout the years. Overall in good condition considering age.
Interior is in great condition. Windshield sunshade used daily. Slight wear and fade on the driver side seat bolster but that is pretty much the only cosmetic issue with the interior. Previous owner had the
OEM European Dashboard with extra Storage Compartment. Leather parts are protected with Chemical Guys Leather Conditioner with (UV protection) 4-5 times per year. Other interior parts are protected with 303 Aerospace Protectant 3-4 times per year.
