2010 BMW E60 535i M-Sport **6-SPEED**
 

Two owner, meticulously maintained, very rare 2010 535i M-Sport 6 speed. This is a real 6-speed, manual, not an SMG. As of this listing, no other E60 manuals have been on ebay recently enough to be in its history, and none are currently for sale in the US through other Craigslist sites or Autotrader (to my knowledge or ability to find). Additionally, this car has the very rare aluminum trim option. I have never seen another one with this selection. 2010 is the only year for the E60 with the black headliner as part of the M-Sport package. Color is "Carbon Black," which is really a very dark metallic blue. Original owner leased car, I bought in October, 2012 with 17,661 miles. To be honest, I really don’t want to sell the car, but I’m driving 30-35,000 miles per year, and between the fuel costs and maintenance, an electric is really looking like a good fit. Meticulously maintained by owner/enthusiast/engineer, and very lightly modified. I can provide reference to my personal abilities from certified BMW tech if you would like. When owner could not perform maintenance, vehicle taken to the BMW Club of America’s top rated independent shop, European Auto Garage in Knoxville, TN. As of April 29, mileage is 137,000, but will go up as this is my primary driver.

The condition of the car is outstanding. There are some scuffs on the bumpers, and one door ding on teh left rear of the vehicle, as can be seen in pictures. It has never been involved in an accident; however, the front bumper and left rocker cover were replaced due to parking lots instances (obstructed obstacles). As mentioned, the car has been meticulously maintained. If you price out the work done by a private shop, you will see that in the past few months, as much has been spent on the car as the asking price (turbos generally run about $8K). So the price is reflective of the condition and the rarity.

Price?

Thanks! Added to original post. Asking $12,500.

super nice! The aluminium trim is very striking and a nice change from the wood.
You should see if it'll get accepted on BringaTriler.

Thank you! I certainly dig the trim. Everything about the car. Tried BaT, they did not accept it. I was surprised, I can only guess they don't know how rare the 6-speeds are. Took me 6 months to find the darn thing when I bought it, and I had to buy it out of California.
