Ticking time bomb with SMG and I see no mention of service... for that price I would buy a higher mileage manual that was well taken care of

I don't like SMG at all! But being an 06, the car falls right at that price, and is actually on the low side even with that mileage. It has Nav, CSLs, and appears to be super clean!
Idk, just my $0.02!

I had no idea that SMG was bad news

It's hit or miss really. There are some early cars, that have been tracked all their life with absolutely no issues and then there are 06s with low miles with SMG pump failure. Basically, at the end of the day it is a very complicated unit that costs a lot to fix/replace if out of warranty. Which they all are now.

Smg pump is $$
I've heard of pumps being replaced multiple times
