Man that sucks. What I was afraid of with mine, but turned out not too bad* (Except oil leaks - everywhere). The other problem is you can't really bail out easy. Once you take cars like this off a dealer, you often take a massive hit on resale. *maybe it was bad - I took a 70%+ hit and was just glad to get out.

Vape vent. I had a V4 - fast car. In terms of value regret, I sold my Mtech 1 to an esteemed member for $5k

^ keen on 2025!

Family member has one of these (even higher spec) - searched for ages for a good one. I reckon they are the best in the range. The d has more than enough instant punch. They look good and are economical. Quite big though and hard to fix the wheels of you curb them though.

Sick. Where did your source? You could probably polish it up to be better than new!

The original "DOHC Turbo" Here's my old one

Why do NZ Euro dealers refuse to spend a few hundred on a correct fitting number plate?

We're worse than Tesla fanboys

Man, this really puts a floor under the market now... Write off with issues and no major maintenance addressed for mid $20s. Be interesting to see the next wave of listings...

Interesting it's the only coupe on the market. They are getting really rare now.

Done properly you machine your existing one for the detents, I believe. There are after market shifter solutions now where you can avoid that if you want.

My e36 had a Jatco box which had no value. E46 uses the same box as SMG.

They have converted two of my cars to manual - 'drive in - drive out' no issues whatsoever, perfect.

I had an S3 for a few years - constant ~$1000 services, but it was pretty solid.

A non-comp pack that's $40k less would have been nice

Cool colour, big sunroof fan, esp on these. Looks tidy. Headlight polish ?

Good feedback, and if DICE dies, it could be an option for me. FYI the DICE unit does almost all of that except the car system stuff. Phone uses a dedicated mic, steering wheel buttons all work, incl answering calls., even Siri, but that does have a lag. Displays track names, stops playback automatically etc. Just seemed weird that for such an old unit that did 'everything' - 10 years later this costs more, with pretty much the same features. Albeit not cloning the CD stacker. It's like no one knew about the Mediabridge.

This is cool - but I have been using a Dice Media Bridge for years now, and it seems to do everything this does and more. Full OEM integration, steering wheel buttons, BT calling, USB input etc. Unless I am missing something (like is this a higher quality BT? Moot with the OEM sound system anyway), I'm not sure why this is worth any premium? EDIT: Is the Mediabridge NLA? Might be. But it was half the price of this.

For posterity - I LOVE IT

cheap!

I'm already coming around. Definitely reminiscent of the Alfa. Be interesting to see if they LCI it. I'm going to say I like it.

So the perfect mod for an Auckland daily
