    Default Only 61000 orig miles?

    Tough for me to believe that this 535iA on ebay only has so few miles...

    Maybe someone in CT can check it out:

    Now who in their right mind would keep a pine tree freshener on their signal stalk? PINK, at that! LOL! Perhaps a carfax, someone?

    I've seen the car. It's a disaster. The Pine tree freshener is due to the heater core leak, which really stinks. The headliner is completely fallen. One of the doors was pried open by theives, and is bent at the top. The rear windows don't work, nor does the piece of **** aftermarket stereo. The diff and the tranny are both leaking. Oh yeah, it blew every single code on my scanner.

    Other than that it was fine.

    Are you fraking serious? lol! I just noticed that the license plate is crooked too! Who would post such a thing. I don't know if I trust you though... the seller explicitly says Mint conditions In/Out.

    ("Mint conditions In/Out.") That's what he told me too.
    Apparently English is not his first language. But I really have seen the car and driven it, and it really has those issues. Gotta watch out on ebay.
    I have no axe in deceiving you.

    Default Here is another low mileage 535iA

    Less than 80,000 miles, they claim to have all records to prove it. Looks a little nicer than the one above.

    Doesn't say where located, but seller's other auctions are in MO.

    Perhaps he should have said "pine" condition to match the air freshener !
