Stop looking for answers that are positive if there aren't any. Just wait for the right car to come around. Its better than getting the 1st thing available and then having it turn into a nightmare.

Only thing that cropped up was recall stuff like water in battery compartment and ABS seat sensor issue. All I've done is replace battery, brakes, oil, leaking gaskets (replaced), flushed coolant, cleaned engine BMW injector service $145, changed sparks at 50k, etc. Oh, and like $14k in mods. lol

If its SMG, car has decent miles on it -- 77k isn't bad if its been taken care of...... nice color combo + sport package. What the hell, buy it.
