Thanks for the link.

I'd love to know what issues, if any the owner experienced with the car. I'm impressed for sure. I'd love to see a modern German/American IS-F analogue make it that many miles without cost prohibitive maintenance.

Good for him! Assuming he performed routine maintenance on the car, I'll be those 185K miles have been relatively trouble free too. I'm definitely thinking I'll get bored with my car or ready to move on to something else long before I have to worry about it falling apart on me, which is not something I would have said about my previous BMW.

I assumed this car got regular maintenance done to it too then. 24 oil changes from the same dealer is unreal!! The body/paint looks good too

Its easy to rack up the miles living in Oklahoma! I lived to myself and had a 72 mile round trip commute, and then when I was dating my gf (now wife) going to her place after work and then home brought me to aroud 150 miles a day.

Now I've spoiled myself by working primarily from home with everything I could ever want close by.

ISF as grocery getter for sure...? With mileage that high, i wonder if thats still the original motor/trans. And if so, how was his driving style? But very interesting find, but i wouldnt jump on it
