I know our community loves pics, so enjoy. Bittersweet moment, you guys helped me land this deal and now I have to let it go. Recently started a different role in my company and inherited a 100+ mile daily commute. I know it’s sacrilegious to admit on this forum, but yes, I went and actually purchased a car (nowhere near as fun as hacking this lease). Please take a look and let me know if you’re interested.

Vehicle condition: SunStoppers (here in Charlotte) installed window tint in July (5% on all 4 doors and rear glass, 50% on front windshield). This may be illegal in your local area (it certainly is in NC), but, you can have it removed. If you zoom in on the picture showing the front of the car (sitting outside) and look closely at the lower, almost underneath, front bumper area (left side), you can see where it rubbed against a parking curb. Just serviced on Friday 11/01/19 at Hendrick BMW (photos attached).
Highlighting front bumper area. First photo is from a standing position. Photo 2 is from a crouching position. Photo 3, I’m laying on my garage floor looking up at the underneath of the bumper.
Thanks everyone for all the interest and all the offers. My apologies for not including more photos of the curb damage to the front bumper (every member who made an offer so far has understandably asked for more details).
Good news is I believe it’s a repairable item that doesn’t require a costly bumper replacement. I have shops in Charlotte that work on my other cars for me and I will contact them tomorrow to confirm repairability versus replacement. I will update the post as soon as I can with additional details, but for now, I’ve included 3 new photos highlighting the area. Thanks!
@cndnbkn Good to see you again! You started all this with your unbelievable hack. Appreciate the comments on the garage. I almost convinced her to go 5 bays, but, she said something about sending our kids to college…
Who needs college when you can open a shop at home?
I feel like I could have had first dibs at this after the consult but the FMV tax due on registration completely murders this deal for me. Whoever grabs this beauty will be incredibly happy with the deal!
