Ok, Was buying this 4.8 but need advice....
Here is a 4.8 with 11k miles on it and the interior has me very concerned from these pictures. it seems the the alcantera is stained and the leather under the headrest is torn. Any suggestions if i was to take this how to make this new looking again?

If someone buys a $70k car and treats it like that i would walk away god knows what other crap has been done to it, i have had mine for 2yrs and it looks like new still, how the hell can it look like that? even my wifes RR looks mint and she has the baby,baby seat and all other crap loaded up in it.
to make it look new again!!! replace the seat and head rest but why would he let it get like that?

I may have to scrap this deal, it was a lease assumption and BMW FS already approved it but nothing was signed yet.

Alcantara is like suede, brush it one way it looks different, brush another direction its different.
That’s no tear in the leather; it’s just how BMW tucked the leather where the slit was made. Of course it’s hanging in the pic, it needs to be pushed back up. All of you with X’s check your headrest and then reply on this forum.
