And no way would I offer anything close to average retail for a car with that service record no matter how clean it looked. And I'd require significant warranty on the engine or I'd walk. But that's just me ...
The dealer already did the tires and oil. My bad missed the 4th page BMW did 2 other changes and changed the brakes, wiper blades. and thats all i can read. Ther is more info to come because i requestd plenty of things to be taken care of. Other than that the car seems pretty legit. I'm loving the exterior and interior. I personally have never seen the combo before.

That's good ... thorough and preventative service on BMWs is very important esp in the case of an M5.

I agree the color combination looks great.

Good luck with the M5 if you decide to move forward!
