    BTW Luke, the best bang for your buck is to go with the big block plug and pay swap. If we ever meet up I will take you for a ride in the 540. It puts a smile on my face every time I drive it.

    Sounds good! I love driving the 530i more than the 525i! It makes me so happy! I bet the 540i is even better! I will do the swap or get a 540i eventually but I have a interview for a job this Friday and then I start college on August 25th! So I just need to save my money and have a reliable dd not a garage queen. The 530i is definitely better than my pos 525i that was about to burn to the ground at any giving moment. :hitler: ;D

      I would have been happy to own 2 POS BMWs at any given moment

      Honestly man, you're a good kid, just try to contain yourself. The return button is there to help you ;)




      PS, I like the new 530

            I have those with no caps. Good price though.

              I sold my m-system throwing stars for $550 last year. That market has exploded since then I guess...

              Buy all my wheels. I need investment capital right now.

              I have these ACTs with good 205/50 tires, 16x8.5 et19 $500





              Then these staggered style 32s x8/9 with pretty poor tires for any offer closest to $400

                I think the market got big after Robthebavarian hyped up the turbines with his e36 build

                I say $1400 is overpriced; People are still selling forged style 20 m-system turbines for $800 or so all day on BF.C

                Interested in those ACTs though. No center caps?

                      As much as I want them, I'll pass

                      Want to refinish the m3 weaves on the iS. Just got my 15" caps in and I'm overly excited because I have cash to burn

                        Thanks, I saw those and for a moment I thought about it.... That is a good price, but then I remembered..

                        Beside I am a little out of contact right now sitting on a 47' boat in Gig Harbor stealing someone's wifi so I can see what's going on it the world. Life is good.

                        TGIF a little early for this boy.

                        Cheers,

                                I wouldn't see why IE wouldn't be open factory direct. Just called GC after finding out they are located in Folsom and they said I can just stop by to discuss and drop off my struts for work.

                                Way easier and cheaper than shipping
