As part of the due diligence, I put the VIN through "Bimmer.work" and it has, despite my best efforts, left me with some questions. I hope I can count on your expertise to fill in the gaps.
I'm trying to figure out the exact line/edition of the vehicle.
The car seems to be a Luxury Line (7S2), but it has a "Without Additional Designation Outs" (3DZ) so no logos on the side. It has "BMW Individual" door sills (option 778) and Individual Roof lining Anthracite (775).
The car is Imperial Blue with a light brown interior. Based on the VIN it has "Leder Dakota/schwarz/exklusivnaht (LCLZ)". It seems to be Zimt/Cinnamon brown (not black as the VIN suggests?). Neither the imperial nor the cinnamon/Dakota seem to suggest 'Individual'.
With the above information, I'm trying to understand what makes this an "Individual" F10, is it just the roof lining? Did the first owner make a specific choice to delete the Luxury badges and order an individual door sill?
Some pictures below (taken by a 3rd party inspector). Thank you in advance!

I think the interior was changed, in the cockpit picture that compartment on the left should be brown, not black. This could suggest just someone changed it or the car had an accident. Did you check trough CarVertical or a service similar to that?
