$10,250 CAD, the guy wouldnt go down another 10 bucks. He started at $11,600, so ?????? not bad I guess. It only has 188,000 kms as well, and all the service records, literally.

How do you drive?? i am always checking my blind spots to ensure i'm not going to hit anyone. unless you are completely ignorant you should too. i can understand a tint making visibility worse but don't say it's cause of you're driving style, it makes you sound like a stupid driver. everyone should always check the blind spot cause you never know when some biker or stupid ricer is gonna get up on your blind spot and you won't see them.

I hear every word my friend. However, with tinted windows, if there is a glare or Im wearing sunglasses...... well then that means I cant just take a peak behind me. Everyone knows that your eyes take some time to adjust when faced with an extremely light situation to a less light situation. So if Im cruisin at 10-15k's over the limit..... come on, you all do it......... and Im wearin shades and I got these dark windows, well then Im going to have to look a bit longer to peak behind. So if Im faced with any kind of situation where I have to make a choice between collision "A" or take my chances changing lanes, and hoping that there isnt a bike beside me, wich would be the case if I had tinted windows, I would have to take the colision? Forget it, maybe a light tint like I said, but my 325i had pretty dark windows and it was a pain in the ass to change lanes when it was sunny.
And as far as a ricer goes...... well you might have a point there, fuk him, if he hits me he better cripple me.

I can relate to your ideas, but you can get tint that is "distortion free". In my case (I have "posterior uveitus" sensitivity to bright light) I opted for the actual DOT 205 glass. I have to carry my Drs perscription with me at all times & have to have exams every other year. It's easy on the eyes but not the wallet ($1100.00 worth of glass) Shop around you can get/ask for non or low distortion tint.

I keep forgetting that - I have a great memory but it doesn't last long
