Even an oil change requires a BMW diagnostic computer to cycle the oil pumps. An F10? Pretty much the same thing. He should have bought an E39. gently caress buying a post-2000 BMW out of warranty.

By not reading the contract at all and thinking you're going to pay something like 32k, which was already ridiculously high for that car. The pictures are long gone, but he originally posted images of the contract so everyone else could see how retarded he was, then he argued for a long time about how he was right and everyone else (and the contract they were literally reading from) was wrong. I cannot loving find it.

The concept behind it takes some time to sink in but it really helps keep track of where you're putting your money and makes it easy to create and fund goals for yourself. It's more proactive than something like Mint but takes more effort on your part to manually enter in all your expenses as you make them.

The diesel Colorado exists to make everyone realize how loving moronic people buying new Tacoma's are. Because a glorified minivan with a bed costing more than an actual useful and durable work truck is loving shameful

The B18 Sentra SE-R was a great car, as were the 240s and the Zs. Nissan had a lot of good cars over the years but now even their best and greatest achievement (the GT-R) has been left to rot on the vine for 10 years with only minor updates, and their normal cars are aggressively mediocre compared to their competitors.

I haven't done an oil change since it started knocking because I have a spare engine and want to see how long it'll last under heavy abuse. So far, I'm incredibly impressed.
