Need your collective advice. I may have tracked down the car I am looking for near Charlotte, NC. Seems like a nice guy to deal with. Prompt on emails and we spoke for about 15-20 min. He also just sold an M Coupe. This is his 4th BMW. He is looking for another M. Recommend a PPI? He actually suggested he’d take it in if I wanted him to –shop of my choice. (I’ve made a few edits below based on things he told me) Appears it needs some PDR on the dents, possibly H2O pump and tensioners. I value your opinions. Reasonable price for this mileage given the maintenance?
