Yes, you are quite right. However, I mod or buy my cars modded regardless of the "stock" market. I also have a 700 rwhp turbo 1995 BMW 540i/6. For disclosure, I just bought my 2002 996 TT last week. Evo GT 700 kit, Bilstein coilers, Brembo 6 pistons, aftermarket exhaust, sway bars, short **** kit, Recaro Sport leather/alcantara seats, and new clutch for S-Car-Go Racing.I respect stock cars, but not my cup of tea, regardless pf the market.

The red one is borderline Prestige/Craigslist but I hereby elevate her to Prestige status on account of the red console and dials matchy matchy with the guards red paint.

I was wondering if the red one was posted some where. I've been talking to the dealer about it, it seems reasonably nice, needs a few little things though.

Yeah it does look like it sits a bit high. Not sure what's up with that.

That's interesting. What does it need?

Blinkers don't self cancel, passenger window is having the drop issues when opening/closing, has red gauges with the speedo overlay not lining up right, reasonable sized scratch on the passenger airbag, some touch up paint on the front bumper. I didn't have a PPI done directly, but did talk to the guy that did it for someone else and he gave me his notes. Sounded like there was an under tray missing up front and then I think a level sensor for the passenger headlight?

All seemingly little things and reasonably DIY fixable, but for me I'm 10hrs away from it, so if I go down there it's coming back.

Something is fishy. 7 previous owners and only 8k miles? And, only 11 range 1s? Hmm!

ext: Meridian Metallic
int: Cinnamon Brown

Not sure how I feel about all the wood yet.
