Selling my 2005 BMW 330Ci ZHP 6 speed MT coupe. Time to start downsizing which includes selling one of my cars. This one has been in our family for over 12 years - my son and I are the 4th and 5th owners – six years each. It was purchased with its mileage at 85K. This particular configuration is rare in that there were only 10 ZHP MT coupes manufactured for the US with the Monaco Blue Metallic paint and black Montana leather interior. It has a strong motor which has had oil/filter changes (Mobile 1 Extended 5W30) every 5K miles or once a year if less - over the last 12 years. There are no leaks.

The issues:
1. The car is not rust free - there's a couple inconspicuous spots on the body, in the engine compartment and on the underside.
2. The headliner needs to be replaced. Currently, being held in place with three flat black thumb tacks.
3. The inter-door to rear side window seal on both sides needs to be replaced.
4. The left rear shock is leaking oil. Car still has a nice firm ride but apparently time has come for a new set.
5. There's some corrosion around all the wheel hubs.
6. Recently replaced the battery. Since then, the clock will not reset.
7. The rubber gasket between the antenna and top needs to be replaced.
8. The headlight lenses are slightly fogged.
9. Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires are about 9 years old with about 10K.
10. Clean title but Carfax shows the 2nd owner had an accident on the right side - no evidence of any damage that I can see.
