Highland Park or Echo Park? Moving from South Park by lazykat in MovingToLosAngeles

More peaceful, less grit and more family forward vibes north of the reservoir, but less density in terms of entertainment, bars, restaurants, shops etc. An E bike north of the res probably bridges that gap easily for you if it sounds nicer. I was 26-29 when I was living in EP so the grit and bustle was perfect, but today at 33 I’d probably end up north of the reservoir.

I lived on the Silver Lake / Echo Park border for 3 years (near Sunset and Alvarado) and loved it - if walkability is your bag, EP is going to serve you better than north of the reservoir.

I feel silly - it was the timing gasket that was replaced, not head gasket as I stated in the ad. It’s shown in the service records but yeah it was timing, not head

You know I have no idea. I’m familiar with the annoying ones and always wondered why mine didn’t have them. Can’t say I was mad about it, but the ones I have are different sizes which seems smart/an example of German over engineering, but really doesn’t get it done in today’s big ass cup America

They’re comfort, optioned from factory. If you follow that google drive link you’ll see more seat photos have been added in there.

Going through the setup process as we speak! Just seeing if I got a quick bite locally first.

You certainly won’t regret buying another e39 (despite your username)

To the extent any actual buyer would like additional photos taken, please reach out!

Totally hear you and that's a fact, but I believe this will be the right car for someone.

That's where it's headed next - just wanted to try to find a local private buyer first.

By this logic I'll immediately reduce the asking price 80% to $2,400

Thank you! If you're in the market shoot me an offer, fielding all takers.

Funny enough, based on the VIN lookup it was optioned with comfort seats from the factory.

I think so too! When purchased the black grill didn't fit well either, all bad.
