wow that is so nice.. great car!

im pretty sure he is joking, but if you said yes to that 5K, i think there would be a bidding war here

nick_318is · 06-11-2006, 09:59 PM

Yes i was kidding with the 5k I dont have any money to buy another car, i also wanted to make sure you knew you wouldn't get out what you put in. In accounting terms, sunk costs are sunk.

**Bimmer_5er** · 06-12-2006, 12:24 AM

Damn thats to bad to see you let her go Matt. Maybe will have to have one more meet before you sell her?? Definitly want to check out the supercharger

**maniacmatt** · 06-12-2006, 02:27 PM

REALLY?! Thats such a shame, especially the timing all that time and effort you put into it in the last couple months and you won't even really get to enjoy it.

**DEATH2000** · 06-12-2006, 03:01 PM

You better not sell her before i come to Edmonton man!! I wanna see here in person for once.

**matimus** · 06-12-2006, 09:21 PM

**matimus** · 06-12-2006, 09:24 PM

**maniacmatt** · 06-13-2006, 10:24 AM

That is a sick e30. I love the color and stance of it. Have you dynoed it? That car would be wicked on the track. Good luck with the sale.

**dinan540** · 06-13-2006, 04:31 PM

Oh yeah, do you have any plans for the 4.8si? Those are sick too.

**Turbodefrost** · 06-13-2006, 04:40 PM

:drool wow. if only i had some extra $$

**matimus** · 06-13-2006, 08:51 PM

Hey Maniac matt
Yeah id still like the strut bar and plates.

I am now concidering tell the the GF to f-off

and keep the car. I mean its all paid for and it doesnt owe me anything. So i dont see why i cant keep it. I mean it only cost $6200 a year for me to insure right. But if I can get good $$$ for it then mabey.

My plans for the 4.8IS. I dont know

not much. A supercharger for sure and mabey a big stereo. thats about it. it will be my daily driver so nothing to drastic.

DEATH2000:
I'll check it out tommorrow and let you know. I was there today but forgot to ask.

**DEATH2000** · 06-14-2006, 12:18 AM

Dude are u serious, it costs u $6200 a year in insurance? thats fucking nuts.No wonder ur selling it.

Say that again? Over a $100,000....for a 2007 BMW X5 4.8is?

They start at $71,100 and fully loaded are....$77,602.

Where is the extra $22,398 plus?

And yes, I'd give up a super-whatever e30 for an e53 X5 4.8is in a heartbeat.

Anywho...good luck.
