I have seen a mistreated 8 series before but this is way beyond !
- Front bumper is some cheap aftermarket piece is hanging, a previous owner hit a curb...
- The rear is a cheap bumper with nice exhaust tip
- Wheels are all lipped, all of them ! Tires are 245/45ZR18 all around, but the rear is 10.5" wide, looks terrible
- The car was resprayed and one of the worst paint job for a BMW unless you do it with a can
- The rear deck lid is cut to fit for the convertible and poorly finished. The brake light on the trunl lid is glued on and a glue is all over the brake light ! or maybe a silicon seal but they painted the silicon too...
- The interior is smelly, and filty, screws, bolts are missing here and there, aftermarket hi-fi system eats up the rear seat area.
- The top has about 7-8 holes, and the guy said it is a new top, but it scrubs, so eventually it'll happen to any new top, the front part of the top has a thick layer of silicon , because it did not sealed perfectly
- The trunk area is trully the worst. Wires hanging from everywhere, they fabricated a bracket to a relays and fuses, and they are rusting, also the carpet is mission from the trunk are, you can see through to the cabin area.
- The engine bay is filthy but no oil leaks !
- The car has 36k miles by the odometer, but sure looks like 136k miles !
-The comupter warns you about the brake linings, (brake pads) replacement
what else ? I can't think of anything else, but the car is terrible !
If you still want a picture, E-mail me, I took 5-6 pictures and forwarded to Kurt !
