2008 e61 535XiT 6MT upgraded and well maintained

This old lady is high mileage 250k ish, but very well loved. I've had the car since 2017 and 160k miles. She was 100% stock until two and a half years ago. A coolant line failed and I went nuts.

Vargas stage 2 turbos
2in silicone inlets/outlets
Charge pipe
Tial BOV (I think)
Dual cone intake
Oil catch can
Upgraded PCV valve
New valve cover and gasket
New plugs and coils
540/335is clutch (mild upgrade)
Replaced RMS and all clutch components
New slave cylinder
Replaced gear oils
High flow catted downpipes
Big intercooler (rated for 750hp, need to dig up the source)
Rear suspension spring conversion (no more airbags)
New upgraded Bilstein shocks all around
Suspension most components refreshed (ball joints, end links, anything that was cracking)
Upgraded fuel pump (issue noted below)
MHD tune
Upgraded sunroof drain lines (no more flooded tire well!)
Stainless brake lines

I think that's it.

Issues:
I need to replace the upstream O2 sensors (cold start rough idle)
Replace the fuel pump (the upgraded pump assembly has an issue with the syphon jet pump that moves fuel between the two sides)
Cosmetic stuff, the car could use a good detailing.
Headliner is sagging
Dings in bumper
One annoying small dent on drivers door
Rear trunk hydraulics are shot


As I fix the issues I'll update the post.

Overall a solid sleeper that could use more love that I have time to give right now. I've babied this car for years and kept it in overall great condition. Hope to find a buyer that wants to show it love.

Car is located in Richmond VA. Not sure where to start on pricing, going to say $15k to start for this rare beast.
