Decided to move another direction and list my 2012 BMW 128i.

I've owned this car since there was 4,400 miles on the car, so I consider myself almost primary owner. Full disclosure this car does have a lemon law title attached to it. The reasons why it was lemon law'ed was because of a faulty fuse box and a knick in the taillight wire during assembly. The car was lemon'ed due to "Electrical Issues" and I bought the car under this assumption. I was given a 1 year grace period to return the car with full refund if anything has ever been discovered and diagnosed of electrical issues. To this date there has been nothing of the sort.

The car has been fully serviced at the local BMW dealership, feel free to run VIN and check all records.

Car is a 2012 128i. Options on the car include Heated Seats, M Sport Package, and BMW Bluetooth Wireless, SULEV Engine (N51) - This Engine includes a 3-Stage Manifold and IMO the more superior engine for STX.

Car was primarily a Daily Driver, saw around 45,000 miles of DD use. Then I decided to get another car for daily duty and the car sat in the garage for the year of 2015 in which most miles were driving to and from events. This past year the car has simply been trailered to and from events. Currently 50,588 miles

Car is an absolute beast, and still easily DD-able.

Oil Done per BMW Schedule while in 2013/14/15 - Oil Change at 45,000 per me
Thrust Bearings done at 49,000 per BMW Warranty. Apart of the repair I had the clutch and flywheel examined. At current wear rates these parts are good til 150,000 miles
Brake Rotor Replacement done at 49,000 miles per me.

Modification list includes:
TCKline Dual Adjustable Coilovers #400/700 Spring Rates with TCKline Camber Plates
2 Sets of Kosei K8R Wheels (17x9 ET45) with Bridgestone RE-71R Tires. One set of tires has 70 Runs (Freshly Flipped), the other set has 30 Autocross Runs
(I still have OEM M Sport Wheels too with Hankook V12 Tires on them)
27mm UUC Front Sway Bar - Turner Motorsports Adjustable Endlinks
19mm UUC Rear Sway Bar - AKG Adjustable Enlinks

Lol, exactly. I don't want the car to be too competitive.

Thanks Dane. I added pictures now with the car in selling state.

Sorry.

I'm actually selling the Z4M and 128. Z4M is already sold, took less than 12 hours to do that one.

Going to purchase a 2017 86 and run it in STX with light prep (MCS Shocks, SwayBar, Wheel/Tire, Header, Tune). And slowly add parts back to it as funds become available.

So sad. Presume you are figuring that is the only way to get a Nats win in STX these days? (besides a mini)

I think it can get done in the 128. But it needs to be an absolutely perfect run and the car needs to behave.
