FS: 2017 540ix, Alpine/Cognac, 40k miles, with MANY upgrades
I put a deposit in on an X3M so it is sadly time to sell my babied, low mileage, tastefully upgraded 2017 540i. This is my 6th BMW and I am a long-time enthusiast and obsessive when it comes to maintaining my cars. Dealers are offering laughable trade-in numbers so rather than put the car back to stock and have the dealer flip it I want to sell as-is to an enthusiast on the forums who will appreciate it.
Regular oil and fluid changes with all service records available, never driven through a touch car wash! Note: I DO NOT have plans for parting this out right now so please do not ask. If something changes I will update the ad. 2017 BMW 540i VIN: WBAJE7C38HG478932 Alpine White/Cognac Dakota Leather Current Mileage: 39,600 Packages: M-Sport, Cold Weather, Driving Assistance, Driver Assistance Plus, Premium Additional Options: Ceramic Controls, Harmon Kardon, Power Rear Sunshade Exterior Upgrades -Maxton Design Gloss Black Front Splitter -Fog lights covered with Lamin-X yellow film -35% window tint -Door handle silver wrapped in gloss black vinyl -Alpine White Front Reflectors and Center Grille Trim -Genuine M Performance Gloss Black Front Grille -Genuine M Performance Side Skirt Extensions Painted Gloss Black and Ceramic coated -OEM Rear Spoiler in Gloss Black -OEM G30 Mirror Caps painted Gloss Black -Genuine M Performance Rear Diffuser -OEM Euro LCI Taillights (coded and installed with custom plug and play adapters so no wiring or pins were modified) Engine/Exhaust -Dinan Free Flow Axle Back Exhaust -Dinantronics X Piggyback Tuning Module Wheels/Suspension two sets of wheels and tires included -OEM 664M 19 wheels with Michelin X-Ice snow tires -M Performance 20 Forged M669 with Continental All-season Tires -ECS Tuning 17.5mm and 12.5mm spacers (nice flush look with the M669s) -OEM BMW Space saver spare tire retrofitted including all trunk trims -BMW M Sport Brakes retrofitted Stereo- Installed using Technic plug-and-play harness and LOC with no OEM wires cut or modified -Visual Ice custom corner subwoofer enclosure with Hertz 10 subwoofer -Jehnert XE200 under-seat woofers -Arc Audio 1100.5 powering the under-seat speakers and subwoofer; installed on custom hanging amp rack under rear deck -Eton B100W component speakers in front and rear doors Interior -3 sets of floor mats included: OEM Carpet mats, OEM All Season Rubber mats and TuxMat winter mats (these put WeatherTech mats to shame) -Weathertech trunk mat - 2 sets of keys Full disclosure: The Carfax report shows minor damage reported. This was NOT from an accident or collision with any other vehicle. When installing the M performance side skirts the jack slipped and damaged the front passenger fender. The aluminum is almost impossible to repair properly so the fender was replaced with a new OEM BMW one. I have pictures and all records relating to the repair and the shop that did the work only uses OEM parts and does excellent work. I will post a pic of the fender here. In summary, this is a low mileage, well maintained car with tasteful modifications that were all properly installed without butchering any part of the car. I hope the X3M gives me as much joy as this one has. I am including all OEM parts for the new buyer as well. I am located in NY and I am listing the car at $30,000 with everything above included. I took some pictures today and will post more photos tomorrow. Last edited by KmanM3; 04-13-2024 at 09:22 AM.. |

Any records of service or OEM parts replaced (Cooling/Suspension/Drivetrain components)?

I bought the car in 2019 and have put 20,000 miles on it since then and it has been virtually trouble free. The only items I have had to replace outside of regular maintenance are the seat occupancy sensor, steering wheel vibration module and a front thrust rod/ball joint was replaced soon after I bought the car. My dealer fixed all of these and I have all records.
Otherwise it has just been regular maintenance including oil changes and brake fluid flushes and I have records for everything done. I replaced the engine and cabin filters myself but have receipts for the OEM parts used for that. I also put in all new OEM spark plugs myself about a year ago. The M sport brakes were installed about 6 months and were purchased from a forum member who only had 7,500 miles on them so lots of brake pad and rotor life left. |

If the cars doesnt sell would you part anything out? Tail lights or exhaust possibly?
