Hey guys, a shift in my priorities is the cause for my sale. I purchased the car a little less than a year ago from Shelly BMW in the OC and drove it back up to Santa Clara where it was garaged and loved everyday since. I have put a good amount of work into this car to make it better in almost every way than since the day I got it.
Lets start with the factory options:
-330i 42k CPO with warranty til 100k or 10/2012 and maintenance til 50k or 10/2010
-Mystic Blue (only year e90s came in this color)
-ZHP sport pack on black leatherette seats and sought after aluminum trim
-iDrive Navigation
-Rear power sunshades
-6 speed manual
-Adaptive xenon headlighting
-Logic 7 soundsystem 13 speakers, 2 underseat subs
I wont go over the standard features, if you're here you probably know about them, but in case you don't there are some great reviews available below and around this forum (the only kind this car gets).

Since I bought it I have performed a few tasteful upgrades that are generally recognized by the BMW community as value adding upgrades, not ricey trash that you would want to undo. That being said, I realize people have different tastes, which is why I will offer to sell the car sans certain parts if desired.
Aftermarket list:
-Linea Corse LeMans standard fitment 19x8.5 +35 and 19x10 +37 wrapped in 235/265 Nitto Invo, bought them in April 09, they probably have 4k on them. Perfect condition.
-H&R Sport springs
-Koni Yellow adjustable Dampers
-Full alignment performed by AI in Milpitas
-AFE Ver. 2 intake
-L.E.D. interior lighting all around
-L.E.D. exterior lighting all around
-Mycarr Ice L.E.D. Angel eyes
-Bimmian 5k fog bulbs
-OEM Blacklines
-OEM all weather floormats
-OEM e9x M3 iDrive knob custom retrofitted
-Equipped with the new version sport steering wheel, much better than the old style.
Additional:
I also spent around 30 hours detailing this car (not including wash) with Menzerna, Glanz, and other higher end detailing polishes and tools in order to bring out the shine of the paint, I am extremely particular about this, and the paint is in excellent condition and well protected.
Currently however there are 2 defects cosmetically. One is barely noticable, the other is barely barely noticable. 1.) slight ding in the drivers A piller smaller than a dime. 2.) I bumped a curb with my left front lip when turning into a driveway. Cheap fix, or buy oem, hartge or whatever kind of splitters.
The front of the car has minimal wear from its age, but nothing that you can see without acting like inspector gadget.
The interior is what I would consider immaculate, well maintained. I know how to take care of the interior. Smells new still.
New registration just paid until 10/10
The car gets incredible gas mileage; mixed driving averages me 25 mpg.
Insurance is CHEAP for such a nice car. I currently pay around $120 a month.
BMW's excellent warranty coverage has covered full replacement of the brake discs and pads within the last 5k, as well as the front windshield and molding, and rear window molding as well as some other small bits. I have not had a mechanical problem with this car and the records show no problems in the past.
On to the pictures:
More available on request, but I'd rather show the car in person. Located now in Downtown San Jose and all along the Bay. Pm me for more info or contact information.
Oh yea; price is $27.7k as is, $25.7k stock but including the H&R/Koni suspension. This is right on par for an excellent condition vehicle, not to mention the peace of mind with the 100k warranty.
It is partially financed through BMW FS, buyers with excellent credit will qualify to take over the financing at my low promotional APR if so desired. I would like to sell this car, but don't need to sell. If you haven't READ the thread, please dont pm me with dumb questions or lowballs. We know what the car is worth. CPO puts it at a greater value than the other cars on the market. Thank you for your time.
