Very good condition, excellent fuel economy and great fun to drive. I have owned it since 2004/50,000 miles. I have maintained it meticulously and have all service records since my purchase. I have changed the engine oil every 3000 miles, transmission and differential lubricants every 30,000 miles, coolant every 2-3 years, brake fluid every 30,000 miles, using high-quality fluids and synthetic lubricants (with the plan of enabling it to reach 200,000 miles or more without major problems).
Interior and exterior are in very good condition except that the drivers side floor mat needs replacing.
If you have never owned a BMW before (this was my first), you will be pleased by the handling and the fun factor of “The Ultimate Driving Machine.” I have found the car to be reliable and easy to work on, with parts readily available and not particularly expensive.
