This 2006 Diamond DA40-180 STAR (N648DS) presents as a well-equipped, low-time example with 1,410 total hours on both airframe and its Lycoming IO-360-M1A engine. The aircraft features a Garmin G1000 glass cockpit with dual 10-inch displays, GTX 345R ADS-B transponder, and Bendix/King KAP 140 autopilot, making it IFR-capable. Notable upgrades include a 110 lb gross weight increase, 50-gallon long-range tanks, and a Tanis engine pre-heater. The Hartzell 2-bladed propeller was overhauled in February 2021 and shows 696 hours since overhaul.
Maintenance highlights include a new fuel pump installed in April 2023 and a recent ceramic coating applied in 2023. The aircraft has no damage history and comes with full logbooks. With an annual inspection valid until November 2025 and 91.411/91.413 checks due November 2026, this DA40 offers a useful load of 906 lbs. The exterior sports a white base with black, grey, and silver accents, while the interior features custom charcoal gray leather with orange stitching. The combination of modern avionics, performance enhancements, and meticulous care makes this a compelling option for both training and personal use.
