I want to fucking kill hrblock. Damn website stated it filed my damn return, but no all they did was take my money & it sat on file. Ugh now I gotta wait 4-10 days for the approval and funds. :hitler:

At least I'll get some refresher parts for the car. Need to curve the body roll I have.

taxes yourself or suffer my man, I'm not looking forward to my first time doing taxes, but I plan on learning how to do it on my own, don't need the fools at the "tax experts" place taking my money.

H&R Block lets you e file federal for free, they charge you for state. So I e'filed with H&R for federal and mailed in my state (OR)

Yeah I did Federal for free online & state was like $16 with the coupon I had. I just find it odd/frustrating that the system took my money, stated it's filed, but didn't until I went through the process again.

Yeah, I'll just bite the bullet of 4-6 weeks waiting and mail them using turbo-tax print outs.

Lucky for me usually the feds hook me up and state of oregon wants more money from me or they give me 20-100 dollars back. 200 dollars per week just isn't enough taxes for me to pay I guess



Useless Wikipedia Fact
The Getrag 260 (RPO M35) was a 5-speed manual transmission incorporated in BMW and General Motors vehicles between 1984 and 2005.

Bad News: While some of the internal components may be interchangeable, GM units (transmissions from Holden and Cadillac cars) are not interchangeable with those from BMW cars.

Thats too bad, that would cut down on price of 5spd's

When I traded in my CTS Coupe for the 9-3 I got absolutely killed because it had the manual tranny. Whatever they did to it was money though, had great clutch/shift feel.

I heard the ATS and 3 series sticks are both pretty bad right now though :-/

The ATS is a cheap car, what would you expect, the 3 series is kinda the same way.

edit: 90 mins. of sleep before work means horrible grammar.

Phil has a point, but an M50 is a definite upgrade from an M42. Find a nice, low miles one.

In other words, my bi-polar ness is kicking in again. Thinking of changing directions with both cars (S50 and 5 lug in white car, cammed M50 and coils in red car.) Ugh.
