@BM WORLD is/was selling one for much less than that, albeit the KM were a lot higher. Dont think red suits it personally. Looks very "jap import 320i"-y.
-
Love that interior. Much better, and rarer, than normal full leather.
-
Tan interior is nicer in person than in photos. So much nicer than black leather.
-
Sounds like the other way around if he is swapping wheels and exhaust to the 3dr? Honestly shocked you haven't been able to sell the E81, it's a cool car and rare. Nicer than the last one that was on the tards, white with gangsta stripes.
-
Bleh, E36s are old cars that need alot of TLC.
-
Useful warning for what, knowing you're speeding? sh*t, in the 12 years I've been driving I'm sitting on two speeding tickets. One when I was a teenager doing stupid things in his turbo DC2R, and the other from driving when tired and angry, through a speed camera I knew was there. I'm no advocate for the speed kills crap, but dont pretend there is any reason other than bad driving (speeding) to use a radar detector.
-
Another thing that pisses me off lately (since im car shopping), is cars that have been modified for a certain set of wheels (flares, pulled guards etc) and the seller saying "wheels not for sale, BYO wheels". WTF, who wants to buy a car without wheels, let alone one that is set up for a certain size/offset? Putting factory wheels back on would look stupid due to the body mods.
-
I have noticed the latest trend isn't even "deets"... its "dets". I thought it was a spelling mistake on one listing, but have since seen it used a few times. Facebook is aids.
-
This is basically why I sold mine years ago. The only thing they might be good for is if a police patrol car is heading your way (and even then by the time the detector has seen the radar, its also seen you). No good for anything else. I think mine was a beltronics, one of the top of the line ones. Got a hook up through where I used to work. Now I just pay attention to my speed/not speed, and that's seemed to work well.
-
I couldn't find any NZ suppliers/stockists of it. You will need to buy it out of the states.
-
I have no good recommendations for the OP, so I kept quiet about it.
-
Just watched the Senna documentary on the flight to LA. Its good and has a lot of interviews etc.

Kiwi style brake caliper tool & transmission stabilizer and paint baking booth

Lol, a pair of vice grips or some big pliers work too, but hey, 10.5 points for effort -
What worries me is how much soot was in the London tube system... Yet its all electric. Brake dust? sh*t is everywhere, even in my nose when I blew it.
-
Don't be a pussy. Rip out the cats, they're a choke on the system and probably aren't doing a lot after so many years.

The LTW ran 235 on the 7.5 but the preferred width is 225 on 7.5" My car had a pair of 235s on the 7.5s and seemed fine, no excessive sidewall bulging or anything, but I replaced them with 225s anyway.
-
I don't think there are any instances in NZ where you NEED a rear fog light. Our roads aren't big enough and even at a large following distance you end up blinded by it. As long as the tail lights are on, that's usually plenty bright enough for most nz weather. Now if you were hammering along the Autobahn it would be good to see another car in front of you from a mile off, but that's not the case here.
-
Technically any modification to tail/stop lamps is illegal
-
Another goodwood wedge.
-
Spotted in the Goodwood parking lot. 850csi. Yum. Had its park lights on all day, but still fired up like a champ.
-
Looks pretty good in person. Bit quiet, and smaller than expected.
-
This. And the post above, is exactly why I removed my number from my listing when selling the BMW. So many stupid texts.
-
On holiday. Here for the weekend and then onto the UK for goodwood FOS.
-
In San Fran at the moment. So many ///M cars. E92/46 M3s everywhere and even a Z3M coupe.
