SOLD. Thanks zhpmafia!

Car is in overall great condition and is very reliable. Heated seats. Orient Blue with grey leather is a rare combo. Interior is beautiful and paint shines nicely. Front of car was covered with clear bra entire life up until beginning of 2016. I bought car in June of 2015 with 125,720 miles and it was my daily. I received a company car in October of 2015 so the ZHP became a weekend car that was garaged mostly.

VIN: WBAEV53414KM33823
Year: 2004
Make: BMW
Model: 330i
Price: $7,600
Mileage: 133,000
Transmission type: Auto
Body Type: Sedan
Color: Orient Blue Metallic
Packages: Performance, Sport, Heated Seats, Xenon
Title status: Clean in Hand
Location: Clemson, SC

Modifications/Repairs from Previous Owners:
-Black Kidneys
-Tinted Windows (Guessing 20%)
-Thermostat is an aluminum one so assuming coolant system was overhauled, but have no proof
-Front end, Mirrors, and Door handles were covered in clear bra (it was yellowed so I removed it all without damage to paint)
-Radio Auxiliary jack installed in glovebox

Repairs/Maintenance during my ownership:
-New Beisan Vanos seals (11-5-16)
-Valve cover gasket (11-5-16)
-Lower Radiator Hose (June, 2015)
-Oil Filter Housing Gasket (June, 2015)
-Gas Tank Breather Valve
-Gas Cap
-Battery
-Windshield Cowl
-Cabin Filter
-Steering Guibo
-OEM side markers (had faded tinted ones)
-New OEM Floormats
-Recovered Steering wheel from CobyWheels
-Matching Gear Selector and E-brake Boots from CobyWheels
-Reglued A & B pillar sagging covers,but front Passenger side is already started to release
-All fluids were changed when I bought car in 2015
-New Fog light bulbs

I like to be open and honest about my cars so here is what prevents it from being perfect but does not affect daily driving at all:
-door dings and light scratches in paint from previous owners
-small oil leak (it is the oil filter housing gasket, which will hopefully be replaced before sale, gasket is ordered)
-front and rear tires don't match but have less than 10k miles on them
-slight curb rash on 2 wheels
-2 small nicks on inside door handles
-Just realized that the fabric on drivers side B pillar is missing completely. Never noticed it during my ownership
-Headlights aren't the brightest
-Rain Sensor Does not work (has aftermarket windshield it looks like)
-Driver side window will now only go down about an inch then stop, so new regulator is needed as of December 2016.

Thank you all for the kind words! Would love to see my car go to another good home. It just sits in the garage most of its life right now and it is too good of a daily to do that with it.

This past week it threw a CEL. Lean banks 1 and 2. Going to check for leak around DISA and cracks in intake boots. If someone wants to make me an offer, ill take around $7500 the way it sits right now though.

Update on the CEL... I found a cracked vacuum hose which I replaced, but the major leak was that the lower intake elbow had slid off the throttle body almost completely. I slid it back on and tightened Hose clamp. Drove it over 50 miles today and CEL has not come on and it runs great! It was coming on immediately after clearing it before the repair.

Hope it worked. Sometimes it takes @100 miles of mixed driving to throw the code again.

Lowered price to $7,600 because the driver window regulator now needs replacement. Someone take her home.

Where is this car located?

I am located in Clemson SC. Sorry I need to add that to original post. I go to Charlotte, NC and Atlanta, GA often though so can drive to meet buyer.

Brand new oil filter housing gasket fixed oil leak as well as fresh oil change!

SOLD...to me! Pics of car don't do it justice. It is extremely clean and bradleg was great to deal with. He even met me at the rental car location to make it less driving for me...great guy! When the seller says "I'm gonna run home and give it a quick bath" you know you found a someone who took care of their car.

All tucked in for the night after my FUN drive home!
