Hard to avoid a cliche response here, but everyone has their opinion and the only one that matters is yours. I like the white, but don't love the tint or the wheels. That's just me though. No question the e90 is a good looking car. Have you looked at other color combos? Find a few you like and hold out for them!

Its got everything. Low mileage, lots of options, looks like Mtech bumper (not M-package), nice M 219 wheels (if you lower the car it would look far better) and AW, except the interior color. I would prefer black. If you're getting the beige interior though this is the combination to get. With keen eye you'll notice it has black seat belt which is far better than beige seat belts. I'm not liking the Xi but make sense to you in WI.

I saw your other post. If you're thinking about modding, you should get the black interior and possibly LCI with sport package. I believe Xi don't come in sport suspension.

Car is fine but the interior will be a pain to maintain. Had that same color in my 328 and it took work to keep it looking clean.

Bumper on the car is OEM stock, non-M bumper.

I think it looks real nice, just need to get rid of the amber in the headlights IMO. What I would do though is see if they would be willing to have it taken to a BMW dealer to run a diagnostic on it on their dime (check for carbon build up, fuel pump issues, etc.)

I know some people may think that is too much to ask, but that price seems a little steep relatively speaking, so I think you could either haggle or use some leverage with that.

I got my 2011 335i xDrive for $24,700 with 22k miles on it, just for some perspective on the pricing.

Not a fan of the interior. It always looks bleached out. Car looks clean though. It's up to you.exterior looks are easy fix to your taste. Interior is tougher.

The pre-lci E90 never looked good to me, perhaps that's what they were talking about.

Yeah LCI does look better, especially the coupe (E92).

Looks decent. Don't just look in Wisconsin, look all over. I ended up buying mine in New York because it was exactly what I wanted. Don't settle, take your time and find one where you don't have to compromise.

Looks very clean. Appearance is subjective, so if you like it, go for it.

I disagree with you. I think the pre-lci e92 looks better (except for the tail lights).

On the other hand, the LCI e90 looks a lot better than the pre LCI e90.

Of course this is all subjective...
