[QUOTE="procomplex, post: 390985, member: 17622"] Checked out the car. It's a late 05 according to the VIN but registered in UK in 06 therefore it's considered an 06 car by our JPJ according to the salesman. On the plus side, the car is pretty complete spec. Everything seems to be there including sunroof, folding side mirrors, rear blind, even the toolkit seems pretty complete. It's also a real M3CS as far as I can tell with the mileage at 20000+ miles. The M Track button is on the steering wheel instead of the multi function number. The car was sent for a total respray (the color being kept at carbon black) with the rims being re skimmed. The entire rim was then repainted. You can tell as the double M spokes are no longer black at the side but the entire rim is now painted silver. I think Tenaga Wan's SOP is to do a complete respray of most M3's they receive. Didn't get a chance to start the engine so can't tell if the car is in good shape or not. However, it seems to be an accident free car (as far as I can tell). One other thing - M3CS is supposed to come with CSL style wheels but this example comes with M double spoke wheels. I've been looking around and to get actual CSL style rims in KL isn't cheap (price quoted was more than RM12k). I'm guessing the previous owner sold or exchanged the CSL style rims for M double spoke rims and pocketed the difference. [/QUOTE]
