I too, took the car for a PPI before I bought it and the dealership didn't find anything alarming with the car, so I'm not entirely sure what you're referring to.
Well, check if the carfax shows a NY registration.

If you bought it in NC I guess you aren't the scumbag who tried to sell this car.

I'm quite sure it's the same car. Hard to have the same black tinted rear lights, color, mileage (68k when I saw it), extended leather, and especially that ding in the hood. Hard to reproduce that.

I'm glad your PPI checked out. The car had clearly been beaten on, the exterior paint has scuffs and clearcoat scratches. Despite CCC lying about "it being a individual's car that they were selling as a favor", it has been part of their rental fleet and didn't have maintenance records despite the Ebay ad promising "Full dealer maintenance history".
A Z4MC with 68k that's lived a hard life and not had a valve adjustment, has used the wrong oil (presumably at some point it had been changed) and hasn't had the tranny/diff oil changed is not a good buy.

Had I known this would come up again I would have taken note of the VIN.

Actually I may be able to get the VIN this weekend when I go back to NH. I recall writing it down there. OP, don't post the VIN. I'll post what I have, if it's the same as yours I expect you and especially the other two doubting thomas' to apologize. I will do the same if I'm wrong.
