Wow, that car is hot! I normally don't like chrome wheels but those R10s look sweet in chrome and on that black car. Mileage is a little high IMO cause I already think my 2006 with 21K miles is high. hahaha

Get it at any price below the Buy It Now price and I think you've got a steal. Actually, even at the $69K price considering all the mods he's done.

Once you get it, remove the V10 badge from the trunk.

For some reason the link has an error but if you copy and paste it seems to work

Yeah, that's what I did after clicking on it a few times and getting errors.

I was worried that the car was possibly a lemon-law buy back due to SMG problems but from the seller's description (if you believe him), it looks like a clean car. You should check by getting a service history report just in case. I remember calling a Vegas dealer about an M5 and my first question was if it was a lemon and his reply "aren't they all?". Great sales technique.

I have never liked heavily 'worked' cars, especially expensive ones.....those could be 30,000 hard miles!
