Just recently added an f31 to the fleet last month, Melbourne red M-Sport 330i. Per sickfinga it’s 1 of 13. So that should help you. We were between estoril blue And Melbourne red.

I saw that Individual turd colored one and was going to send it to you. Astronomical price! Good luck with your hunt. We’re thinking of picking one up and am doing everything to avoid an SUV or van. I’m hoping for something in a “color” this time instead of the usual grayscale. Estoril blue on black is my top choice. Best of luck with your hunt!

Was it the one in the LA area that had about 45k miles on it? I looked at that as it was on the market a good while, but transport costs plus their price just didn't make sense; plus it didn't have the Track Handling pkg just the cosmetic M-sport pkg. It sure looked amazing! I would have bought it if it was closer.

How has the car been? I can't recall if it was included a CPO warranty or not. When Sickfinga provides those estimates, they're often an exterior color coupled with an interior; did you specifically ask him just to provide MR with M-sport pkg numbers for 2017-2019 F31? Thanks for the info, and enjoy the car!

The only SUV thing we'd put up with is a Macan, but it would have to have PASM (Porsche active suspension management) and the torque vectoring differential options. Across the whole spectrum of used Macans, from base through the Turbo, it's almost impossible to find cars with these two options; maybe 1 out of 500 odds. I can't fathom how many VINs I've run through https://www.vinanalytics.com/. Now couple that with either blue or red, no winter road use, 2017 and newer, and the set size drops to essentially zero.

A close friend, board member Redshift, has a full shop, and when I used to live in Raleigh, I helped out with his E46 M3 and E39 M5 wagon builds among others. He's building an E91 335d 6MT beastwagon right now, and I've pondered the thought of just plowing some funds into the E91 and having him do a 6MT swap, LSD, and M3 seats and steering wheel. My E91 isn't in pristine cosmetic condition like my other two cars, and it's really been used as a beater/transporter/etc, so I struggle with the thought of putting about the same amount of money into it as it is currently worth.

For those that might be looking, I came across an LCI xDrive M-Sport:
No VIN listed so couldn’t verify options, but it’s White over Saddle, 112K miles, iDrive, Auto for $13K in OH.

Hard to believe this otherwise well-optioned car wasn't spec'd with Xenons or Comfort Access.

I will be swapping a 6MT into my 07 e91 hopefully this week. Just need to get a few more parts in. My wife actually has a Macan Turbo. I will warn you that my E91 has more usable space than the Macan and the F31 is bigger. I would look for the PASM with air suspension, but the PTV wasn't a big deal breaker for us.

Options can be added without much trouble. Rust on the other hand ... Great builder though, if it weren't xdrive.

I don't believe we have seen this one before. Oregon dealer, 2011 silver on grey, RWD, AT, sport, Nav, 57k miles, $14.5. Not too bad a price considering the miles. https://www.autotrader.com/cars-for-...ngId=548540243

Ad says "M Sport Package" when it is not...

Yes it was in Orange County ca, 45k miles non cpo but it’s sulev so it’s irrelevant for the cpo warranty for me. Sickfinga told me 18 total Melbourne red 330i with black/oyster interior, 13 of which are msport. I did not have him take any other options into account. The car was prices high so I waited in it it price drop and then jumped when the number was right.

I've seen those pictures on this forum before. I wonder if the car is really for sale! That's really cheap for such a unicorn car!

I texted with him. I'm not totally sure if it's a scam or not...

Says he a warehouse full of "AMG and M cars" - kind of odd.

Is also offering a $5k LeMans Blue LCI AWD 5-speed with 167k miles on it.

Google images returned this:

But they clearly aren't a person on here...

He also seems to say he can get me anything I want. Maybe truth, maybe a scam. Seems kinda scam-y.

I have a feeling this guy is just kicking tires...he says car is being sold for more than asking...is he an older guy? I've exchanged a couple of messages and it seems to avoid lots of questions.

If it’s too good to be true, it’s probably not true.

This guy also mentioned a couple E46 M3's he's selling. I'm actually looking for one and the pictures he's sent are of other people's cars posted for sale. This guy is lying forsure.

Well, there we have it. Scammer.

[NOKO]

He is 100 percent a scam. He contacted me a few months back about my ZHP and said the same story about having a warehouse full of BMW'S and what not. He claimed to own a dealership in Concord and when I called the dealership they never heard of him. He wasted so much of my time. I spent hours talking to him on the phone. Completely wasted my time.
