Any M235i ers living in Charleston SC willing to help out a future owner?
Hello,
Believe I found my dream M235i car in South Carolina. Charleston to be exact (Hendrick BMW). Problem is I live in Seattle WA and never bought a car sight unseen. Here is the link to photo's of the car: http://maxdigitalshowroom.com/web/#!...1J7C51FV289139 If I can strike a deal would one of the current owners here on this forum be willing to give it a once over look? I'm sure if would be good for a SBUX gift card with enough for a months worth of coffee. Or if this is not a common request I suppose I could roll the dice or fly down there and have it shipped back FYI: no disrespect for those who have contacted me with their cars for sale. I've appreciated those connections and learned a lot along the way (did not know most folks mod their M235i's--now I get that!). This one seems to check all the right boxes for me. However, not sure if it's a CPO car---checking on that now.

Looks like a nice car. Good luck with the purchase.
If I remember right, if it is not CPO you can have it CPOed for about $1,500. One thing to keep in mind, since it is a 2015 the free maintenance is non transferable. |

Simple solution... CPO may not be necessary. Local BMW Dealer can email you cars maintenance records and do pre-purchase inspection (not as intensive) for $150 - $200.
PS: There is I believe a brand new 2016 Mineral White on Red XDrive Automatic @ BMW of Reading PA. They usually give great deals. Best of Luck. . Last edited by JMatt88; 09-04-2015 at 06:35 PM.. |

Big debate for me. There is a private party car available that I found just yesterday. It's in Kentucky and looks very nice. Still not super close to SEA. It's a 2014 and priced at $40.5K. It's optioned the exact way this one is with the same colors too (White/Red). Hmm... http://www.autotrader.com/cars-for-s...09287003&Log=0

Hmmm, wonder why it's not a CPO car ? It's listed on the Rick Hendrick site as pre owned, not CPO. Beautiful car though

Oh boy, that is quite a drive but really appreciate it. I'll let you know how this shakes out. I talked to the sales agent yesterday. He's going to email all the history and stuff and then if we can strike a deal I'll let u know. Thanks again for the reply. Cheers.

He's sending me the build sheet etc. I need to ask again about not being CPO.

Just noticed a 2015 EB manual showed up on Hendricks website, CPO but Six grand more. Wonder why he's suddenly getting all these used 235s

Kind of defeats the purpose of having a dealer CPO your car if it's not transferable. I may buy my lease and was thinking of having it CPO'd from the dealer in case I want to sell it after a year or two but basically there is no reason to CPO it. I would only do CPO as a tool for resale so that's a pretty dumb policy.

I'm seeing them in CA also and what I'm hearing as "exec demo cars" but that might be just the cool thing to say. A lot of dealer sites on the west coast say "pictures to follow" or "in transit" since they are on a truck post auction. But again very few 6MT cars in Seattle WA area but I did get to drive one finally. I love my E46 M3 but Wow...

I live in charleston and am buying an m235 vert from them. I've looked at your car a couple times and promise you it's cherry. Call and ask for a guy named Tune. Tell him michael who is setting up the m235/m4/4 series sale sent you.
