Yes, I was there. I live nearby, so I didn't stay at the host hotel. I took my M2C to the autocross, some days drove the M3 and the last night's event at the CCA HQ I drove the E91 since it was going to rain.

Barbera red over chestnut 09 RWD Auto. Very nice options list, price and miles:

Nice Car! Looks like someone installed some m-sport trim on the wheel -- good look. Like the wheels, too.

Is it not a factory M-Sport?

Either way, I really like the color of the interior and the exterior, but I'm not wild about them together. Wouldn't kick this one out of bed though. Looks like a pretty solid buy at 9800 if the maintenance has been kept up with.

It has the sport package but not m-sport. M-sport has the cool bumpers, m-sport wheel, slightly different rockers, and the black alcantera headliner and pillar covers. It would also be much more expensive than this one. I agree this one looks good at that price if the maintenance is current.

Ah, right. Forgot about that stuff.

People are probably going to throw stuff at me, but I'm not wild about the M-Sport stuff. Just give me normal sport package stuff (seats, wheel, etc) and I'm happy.

reasonably low mile Sport, sadly an auto tragic though ...

This one has gray interior including the carpet but the trunk has black carpet...
Is that a 2011 thing?

Nope, my 2009 shows the same thing, as was every one I looked at.

Ah ok, I didn't see you there, at least I don't remember. It was my first CCA meet, talked to a lot of folks. Definitely loved the location though, you've got some great driving roads in your area...

Wow, I have Chestnut in my F25 X3 (Alpine White outside) and I love it, but inside of that brick red, NOT a fan... Car could be a great buy though as others have said, especially if maintenance checks out.

The car in question is an '09, which was the first year of the LCI. The biggest external changes are the taillights, which you can see on the black car in the link are the later LCI style.

^^ I was talking about the interior on the 2011.
All E91s I’ve seen, had color matched rear trunk carpet. Tan interior, tan trunk lining, gray interior, gray trunk lining etc.

But that 2011 has gray passenger carpet and black trunk carpet.

Never seen one that had the black trunk lining with a different color in the passenger area.

Huh, I hadn't really noticed the combination, but yeah, agreed. Yuck on the combination of the chestnut on red.

If someone from here buys it maybe they can find someone with a black or gray and swap with them... I'd be very happy with chestnut in my Monaco car.

Check this one out.

The price is very right, makes me wonder if there's something wrong with it. No Carfax on the dealer's website either, though it is at a BMW dealership.

Definitely worth checking out. Something funky about that picture of the console. Can’t tell if it is poor lighting or damaged trim. Then, there is a close up of the dash with the miles blocked out. Why for? Price is good for mileage if maintenance is up to date and no damage history.

More pictures on their website. Looks good overall, I would replace a couple trim pieces and the OFHG looks bad. Very nice build that does have comfort access, xenons, sport package and PDC.

BTW, notice this is a LCI car with grey interior and the rear carpet is grey.

Looks like it has shadowline trim too!

Well, my old eyes interpret that rear carpet as black. Their grey color is much more pale.

I am convinced something is wrong with the console, but it is easy enough to replace.

The dealer photo of the dash does not have the mileage blanked out and matches their ad.

I pulled up the carfax and it indicates some sort of repair to the front about 18 months ago. It is obvious to me the front bumper has been repainted, and it looks good. Car has a license plate mounted to the tow hook, so no holes in the bumper.

I'm pretty sure this was on a Mini dealer forecourt in New York last October, I came close to flying up to look at it.

The vehicle was the same color and spec with damage showing on the carfax and no verifiable history of any maintenance. I had a search from my records and unfortunately only have the last 7 from the vin decoder.

Good looking car though.

All the pictures were taken on a dark wet day. I didn't get a good feeling so walked, it was up around the 8-9 mark.

ps, first post here, thanks to all for the information gained.

The carpet is grey. I too had a hard time distinguishing it from black. What gives it away is the plastic trim around the rear 12v plug.

Ah ok, I read your previous post the other way around. I see what you're saying now. But that being said, this is the only car I've seen like this. I'm currently looking at a few other LCI cars and all have matching carpets, cabin and trunk area.

Yes, I've swapped two cars interior for color changes and it is NOT hard (one was my E90 M3). The key is getting a car with the same year so that the AHR and seat modules match up (make sure to keep your original seat module as they are VIN coded to each car).

The center console is fine. I checked many pictures of this one already and can say comfortably it is ok. There is one picture of the passenger trim where you can see the reflection of a lot of trees with no leaves, and I think you're seeing a warped version of this in the one overhead shot of the center console. All other angles it seems ok.

OFHG had me concerned as well, which makes you wonder about the valve cover gasket. This car looks heavily greased for the photos (tires, trim, engine), so I'd wonder what things look like once you peer over the radiator support and down to the sides of the engine...

I saw the car on another site and mileage is not blanked out there either. Must be a CarGurus thing... Still weird.

Also to note in the trunk is the plastic liner and the OEM sunshade! Nice little bonuses.

I really like that silver car.. Wish I was home, I'd shoot up and snag it, given a clean PPI!
