What does the custom firmware enable ? Is there a link to this dude people are mentioning ? or is it DIY flash? Touch wood I’ve only ever had a low camera ticket, so not sure it’s worth the investment. Big open road drives I can see the value. But not sure from the comments above if they are worth it ?

Can anyone provide a 2024 summary as to the state of radar detectors? I understand the instant on thing, that aside are they worth it? Is the Uniden the best? Or what is the best 'bang for buck' option?

An f80 sold on Saturday for full ask, so there are buyers out there.

All new suspension, bushings, engine mounts, g/box mounts, shift linkages, RTABS, diff seals, prescribed inspections, valve adjustment etc etc.

Well I'm here to test the market for you as I'm in the same boat. Kiwi's love to buy cars based on ODO... Educated purchasers know to look deeper. How many are out there, not sure....

Here you go. Significantly better and fresher than it was at 95km

There is none. You'd have to repaint.

Great write up! Be interested in how this goes. Mine has disintegrated - what's it actually for? Can you just remove it all and have the seat on 'bare?'

Looks awesome. Definitely keen to get one.

Thanks for that.

Thanks. (But fake)

Hey bro. Please let me know where my plate is displayed in the thread. (I’d just rather a small amount of anonymity/deniability) You obviously made your bed a decade or two ago 😆

Just a clean for the sunny weather.

Thank you for the code. Had some done professionally and they match well. Tried to DIY one door and it was off. (I have since painted the wheel black and the front trims Alcantara). Eventually will do door handle again (But I'm colour blind so )

Some what relevant an f80 just sold for $47k. I’d rather have that for the same money as a e9x personally

Haven't been looking, but wow! Lots of e46 m3's too, with a wide price range now. I assume the JDM specials are in the same boat?

Which head unit did you go for? Out of interest what do you use car play for? Maps seems like the obvious (rarely use that), otherwise why not just a bluetooth connection?

Learned my lesson 😝

~203km Thanks to Hell BM, a few maintenance items that have it driving like it’s 15 years newer. - drive shaft bearing, new guibo (2nd time it’s been done. Was trashed) - all gear selector bushings etc. (existing e60 short shifter) - engine and gearbox mounts - new boot struts!!! - coded out LED errors. I’m convinced people pay a lot for new cars for that “hard” LED indicator flash. Certainly modernises it. The drive train feels (relatively) smooth and awesome. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Convertible as noted. Not comparable to a coupe

I assume you are referring to that silver one - offered at $33 and sold (close?). I wonder how ratty that was IRL. At the other end you have people asking $80k for 60km nice examples

Yeah that’s the best looking spec for a non LCI f25. Good spec f30 looks better. But mid spec I don’t think. Drive a big motor f25. I used to hate SUVs, until I became one. (If it’s your only car / sporty car then f30 makes more sense). Or go LCI e90 put a car play head unit in it and $ave?

Factor in RUC and about the same as a 30d

I was looking for an F30 wagon, and ended up converted to an X3. Pre C19/Ukraine diesel made more sense. Pretty much only upside now is that awesome low down punch, so still like mine. But the petrol versions are obviously great too. Good value

A part-out dream!
