A Nice Find Here......PICS
http://tinyurl.com/bzml2o (Hopefully the link is still active.) Looked like a nice unit!!!!! Did some research, made some calls and confirmed everything was on the level. The price looked to be great (for a 4.8is) so working thru our local BMW dealer did a buy of the unit from the Mercedes Benz store for my bud so he could take advantage of the great financing (0.9% on 05's & 06's plus the first 2 payments paid by BMW) promo offered thru BMW financial as well as get it CPO Certified. Should be ready to deliver by mid week. After a check of service and warrenty, the unit came back clean.... My question is, I have not seen the interior seats with the "checkerboard" fabric inserts. Is this a common option? Overall, what are your guys feeling on this vehicle?

I thought 'is models didn't qualify for the 0.9% financing?

The seats are alcantara. I waited a while to get them in the 4.6is. Basically it's like Ultra Suede.
What's troubling to me, however is that they aren't red. In the 4.6is imola cars with alcantara got red alcantara. Maybe it's just the photos.

Nice car. Still for the life of me can't understand why THIS ONE doesn't have front flares. BMW seems to be as consistent as a coin toss!
BTW, the carfax report doesn't come up. Weird. |

Are you sure about that? I've seen some in the US, and certainly on ebay, with front flares.

Those were added on as you can purchase them from your local dealers.

I believe the only Xs that had front flares standard were the 3.0d special/exclusive editions (only available in Europe) - which actually had flares all the way around. If you see a 4.8 with front flares, they added it later.

Appreciate the feedback so far
That said, I would take a second look. That is NOT alacantara, I am very familiar with it. That material is definately checkered in pattern and is fabric. Clicking on the larger picture within the link will open up the viewer with much larger images. Again, not knowing the "is" packages very well is why I posted the question. Interesting about the carfax report. The dealer ran the VIN within their system and there was nothing as all, not even any warranty work done. The Oil changes, coolant changes, brake flushes and inspections are all current. Looks like all the "M3, M5 and 4.8is in NOT available for the .9% offer. I will have to ask what rate he did get because they are moving ahead with the deal.
