bitdollar if you can spot the error

Found this Z parked on the lot at my local BMW dealership. It is one of my favorite color combos, so I got closer to take a look and thats when I noticed the error.

2011 would be an E89, not an E85.

It's a 2005. I know, because I bought it on Tuesday.

One owner (from Parker), 42,000 miles, all options. Other than some rock chips on the hood, it looks like it just came off the assembly line. The owner took extremely good care of it, all service completed at the dealership and on schedule.

I've already gotten a couple sunburns......

Beautiful car. Congrats!
I thought it was funny that a BMW dealer had the wrong year on it.
I searched the whole country 3 years ago with an auto broker for this color combo. We spent over eight months waiting until I finally gave up and took a bright red 2006 3.0si. I test drove your car last week, and the only reason I didn't trade out was because its a 3.0, and I would miss the extra torque and 30 HP that comes with the 3.0si.

For 6 months I've been looking for a European convertible 2seater (Z4/SLK/Boxster) no more than $20k, no more than 10 years old, no more than 60k miles, no more than 2 owners, clean carfax, with service records, in very good shape.

This was the first one. It came up the internet Wednesday, drove it Friday, put a deposit on it, finished the sale this past Tuesday.
