2005 E55 purchase - need history!

Decoded the VIN & it seems options line up with the physical car
Carfax didn't show much history from what I was able to bring up for free

Can someone run this VIN & tell me anything about the car?

WDBUF76J25A624603

Also - it started as a US car then imported into Quebec, now in Ontario
Drove well

Thanks!

The vehicle last visited a dealership with netstar in 2009 ironically when their CPO ran out. Vehicle has open campaign for fuel tank and SBC pump warranty ran out last year.

Thanks for that. Sucks about the SBC warranty as the pump is the original. Looks like a guy imported into quebec in 2011 with 115k miles or so and mileage exactly the same now. Apparently that owner literally never drove the car? Is there a way to tell if the mileage has been tampered with?

On a 2003 probably not they use an older system that allows someone with a STAR machine and access codes to change LOTS of parameters. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news. If the car was maintained you shouldn't have any major issues.

Its a 2005 not a 2003. Does that change anything?
