Based on the seller's "suggestions," I would also expect a check engine light, at least once you've driven the car 25 miles or so. Whatever, it's an awesome car, and with that low mileage/usage over the years, it should be pretty nice and tight!

Yes, it's an Anthracite car. It's a great color especially since they left the "better" colors for the M cars. I don't intend to drive it much honestly so any repairs it needs as it approaches 100k aren't really a concern for me. Even if it takes a week or two that's ok. As it is now, I'm estimating 6 more months before the TA is back on its wheels. That's the type of situation I wanted to avoid with another car.

Thanks
