The only difference in configuration was mine had the Cold Weather Package & silver cube trim while yours has the Premium Package and black cube trim. Mine had 72K miles, not as low as yours, but still much lower than most of the 4 door ZHP's on the market.
I listed it for $13,900 last August and mostly dealt with tire-kickers from all across the country - almost nobody was local to me in Seattle (I had it listed on CL and Autotrader). So many people telling me they loved it, wanted it, but of course no $ in most cases. I took it off the market for a month or so in the fall, needing a break for all the flakes. I re-listed it and finally sold it in December for $11,800 to BMW enthusiast in Southern CA who flew to Seattle and drove it home (following a PPI).
I hope you get every last penny for yours! I was in no rush to sell mine and ended up taking a bit less than I figured I'd get, but the market dictated the price...mine was listed a long time. The steptronic really made it a tough sell, IMO.
Good luck, seeing your car, it reminds me of mine, they were nearly identical twins in every regard!
