interesting 6 series For sale

So I'm in the market for a pre owned 6series and I came accros that one.

https://www.carfax.com/VehicleHistor...59&partner=CAA

it's a 2015 640GC that's for sale in Georgia but the 1st and only owner used to drive it in HAWAII lol. Any idea on the reason why that the car traveled 4800 miles to be sold at a dealer in Georgia???
I'm tempted because the car looks very clean https://www.cars.com/vehicledetail/d...5397/overview/
but it's scary in the same time lol.

High miles, no warranty, but still price is a steal. Look at service records and condition of tires, a set of runflats can lighten your wallet $1500. GL.

Miles super high.

It costs a ton to ship a car to Hawaii and back. The only people who would mess with it are people with a ton of money and a special car, or their company paid for the relocation

That's slightly more than the wholesale or auction price. They're trying to get rid of it. No biggie. But double check the car is in good mechanical, electric, and cosmetic condition.

Possibly a military member that got stationed in HI, got it shipped there for free and then sent to a base in GA with free shipping again. (Maybe had it shipped to/from California and did some cross country driving before and after).
