would be surprised if its CPO for that price

CasperSYTFU · 08-25-2010, 12:42 AM

thats what i was thinking

does it have a service record of HPFP failure?
clean history?
thats really low mileage and a really low price for a loaded car...
but then again i got mine fully loaded CPO for 31k before tax

just make sure youve looked in to everything
you could have really lucked out and found a great deal!

oneind97 · 08-25-2010, 08:26 AM

it is not CPO, what is a HPFP? what does it do and how could i find out about it? ill post some pics here shortly thanks for ur help guys

1.) That really is a great deal even at 31k.

2.) People really need to do research on a car before they actually make a purchase. For you to not know the HPFP issue is ridiculous. Even if you researched the car for 4 minutes you would have found out what it meant. It's crazy to me how people buy a car without knowing what they are getting into first.

Good luck with the purchase.

oneind97 · 08-25-2010, 09:52 AM

so that means ur not gonna tell me?

high pressure fuel pump failure. Its a really common problem. search about it.
find out the car's service history

Damn, that alacantra headliner looks sick. That's actually the first one I've seen. I'd say if there aren't any HPFP failures, under 30k is a solid price.

adhalla · 08-25-2010, 04:50 PM

HPFP is covered by warranty, no matter the mileage. I wouldn't worry about it too much; BMW will fix it for free if there is ever a problem.
I had a HPFP failure with my '07 e92 and they replaced it for free, even though I was over the warranty mileage.

oneind97 · 08-25-2010, 06:37 PM

thanks for your help guys im buying the car thanks adhalla about the info for the warranty. Can anyone tell me whats up with that headliner and steering wheel ive never seen it before, is it a added value or would it be considered of less value thanks alot fellas!

adhalla · 08-25-2010, 10:04 PM

No problem man. Glad I could help bring someone new to the community!

The wheel looks like the old school M sport wheels (below), except in reverse. I've never seen it before; definitely custom, along with the head liner. I don't hate it, but I don't love it. Looks kinda cool and I bet it looks better in person. I say if you like it, buy it and don't worry too much about the resale value. If and when it comes time to resell, price it at what its worth and I bet it will catch someones eye. Just like selling a house, the audacity may detract some buyers, but I bet someone will love it. It only takes one person.

Good luck and enjoy the open road. Cheers!
