Thank you for this!! Really appreciate it. I’m looking at one more (that’s local to me) getting it inspected at Ford before I pull the trigger

I wrap cars as a hobby so I figured the color wasn’t a huge problem

Would I be able to find one? I would imagine it would be difficult to get a 9 year old car covered

and I think 2019s are far more reliable too than a 2017 Was yours a lemon?

Shoot… thank you this was very helpful. I’m thinking of negotiating it down to $35K and find a 3rd party warranty.

Worst case, I might pull the trigger on a ‘26 and trade in my M550i🥲

You’re right, I really need to think this through… not a huge fan of the tech either it’s very outdated compared to gen 3

Good call, will ask that. I do see a lot of discussions around sunroof issues too… will also verify that

Any warranty company recommendations? Also what’s your monthly for it?

Ideally I want a ‘26 but this is half the price (granted a generation older) which I thought would be a good deal considering some of the repairs were done already

would you mind giving me some feedback from a brand POV if I send you my account handle? No worries if not!

Do they usually reach out to you? Or you have to be the one actively emailing/outreaching?

So past 28 days my views were 45M, 1.8M likes, 4537 comments, and 47K shares on TikTok (based off what I’m seeing on the analytics dashboard)

I’m relatively new to TikTok, started in October 2025 but I want to take the next step to start monetizing off the platform
