I'm listing mine for sale. 155k on the clock. First owner had it until 132k, has extensive service records. Drives like a dream. I live in Hendersonville, just moved from Charlotte. Here's some pics, all taken today in Forest City.
No offense to any of you guys posting your cars for sale here, but the OP (if you haven't gathered from this thread) is looking for a 0.1% collector grade example. Super low miles, rare color combo, factory JCW, Aero, climate controlled storage kind of car. AKA unicorn.
I've been rooting for him to find this car for years, hoping to live vicariously through his purchase and subsequent refurbishment/upgrade process! (yes, even minty unicorns need all the usual R53 attention)
BTW @noquartr your photos don't show the most important option of your particular car! I remember when that car was was for sale a little while back. You've got to clearly show your faux wood interior and steering wheel! It is super rare to see on an R53 in the United States.
GL with the search, I had a R56, and always envied the R53 guys. I found me a R53 JCW with around 45k miles during Covid in Royal Gray with Panther Leather. One of the best purchases i've ever made. You can't copy that supercharger sound, i think folks who have good ones will hold onto these.
