My Ride: 545I SMG
![Default](https://5series.net/forums/images/icons/icon1.gif)
Looking to possibly jump into an M5 so I'm looking to see what kind of interest there is on my 545 SMG. Since purchasing the car back in Jan 09 I have only put on about 14k miles and I can tell you this car is extremely clean for its age. Car has always been garaged since the day I've owned it. I have done regular maintenance on this car including changing the oil every 5k miles and checking fluids. Truly a very unique and rare car with the SMG which took me 6 months to find. Asking $20k obo. Car is located in Chino/Chino Hills area.
Model: 545i sport
Transmission: SMG
Mileage: 66k
Title: Clean
Exterior Color: Jet Black
Interior Color: Black
Navigation: No
Bluetooth: Yes
HUD: No
Adaptive Xenons: Yes
Active Steering: Yes
Heated Seats: Front Only
Parking Distance: No
Condition:
I'm going to be 100% transparent in this regard. The exterior of this car is in overall excellent condition. The paint still has a very deep and rich black color. Absolutely no dents and only a very small scratch on the pass front door. There are some very minor rock chips from normal use located on the hood and fenders but nothing Dr. Chip couldn't fix. The front bumper recently met a parking curb so there is a small crack on the very lower right corner however I am looking at getting this fixed for the new owner. The only other blemish on this car I can think of is a small rock chip in the windshield which quite honestly could easily be fixed by Safelite but I just haven't got around to doing it. As for the interior, it too is in excellent condition and shows little wear. If anything, like with most vehicles, the drivers side shows more wear but even at that the seats are still in great condition.

Brakes are Axxis Deluxe pads with what I believe are zinc coated R1Concepts rotors. I have to admit though, I'm not 100% sure as I bought the rotors off a member here a while back. What I can say is there is absolutely no vibration and the brake setup performs exceptionally well. I still have the OEM pads and rotors that will be included with tge sale along with the factory exhaust and suspension.
