If I thought the world were going to effectively end tomorrow I wouldn't be paying a note on a german muscle car with no backseat that doesn't say 911 on it.

If the world was ending tomorrow I'd be buying a Lotus or McLaren or other horribly depreciating mess because it wouldn't matter anymore.

You can tell it’s the X8 because the exhausts are in the shape of an 8.

This is the amount of money it would take for me to even consider selling mine, even then it would need to be because I found something else I couldn't live without (like a built out 200 series Land Cruiser).

Congrats!

I'm week 28, been 150 status since the 22nd, expect I'll see assembly start sometime this week. Maybe possibly see the car end of August or early September since I'm in AZ.

This will be the second time I've had to wait months for a car I ordered so I've had to deal with the wait before, and it doesn't get easier.

e: just started assembly (status 151) so I suspect you'll see the same in 7-ish days.

Since people enjoyed my M4 story, my relatively new X3M is also now at the dealer since about 25% of the time it won't shift from R->D or from D->P without turning the car on and off.

It's been at the dealership for two weeks and BMW USA has been involved and apparently has decided there's nothing wrong with it and it should be returned to me. The dealership knows something is wrong and is now asking for a few more days to see what they can do.

Fun times with M cars!

I need to like unsubscribe from all alerts. But also I’m heavily considering trying to buy this and sell the one I just got lmfao. I mean the sales tax and bidders fee is probably less than it would take to finish converting mine to m-sport, and em definitely so if including the cost of color change

Unless BAT forces you to xfer the title just have the PO sign the title, leave it open, and don't transfer the title to your name prior to selling the car.

God drat cooling system strikes again, I'm about 99% sure the waterpump went out on my way home from work this afternoon. Got both temperature warnings in short succession. I turned the heat all the way to max and it actually went down enough I guess to limp off the highway but not enough to make it home without it cycling between no power and all of a sudden operating normally (I guess as the impeller spins for a few seconds?) every 30 seconds. Got into the secret menu and engine temp was pegged at 120C, comes down very slowly with the engine off, and shoots right back up even at idle.

It's right at 60k miles too, so I should have known something like this is gonna happen
