This happened when I was going to High School in Stockton, CA. I’m Indian and my friend is White. Both of us decide to Krispy Kreme on a school night for some donuts. It’s raining like crazy and very difficult to see. Cop pulls us over, comes to the car and says he pulled us over because we didn’t have our seat belts…

This is not that surprising. Everywhere I’ve gone in Europe, I’ve seen pre-mixed Jack & Coke cans everywhere.

I really really really dislike yogurt. But, last year I went to Iceland and tried Skyr, and fell in love. Came back to the USA and tried to find Skyr type yogurts, and they suck in the USA. So sad.

You’re not going to get any discount from MSRP for an M2 :(, M cars are special and don’t really get discounted much. I live in the Bay Area, and I’ve taken my 428i to Yosemite twice and Tahoe once, and to Oregon once. I think I do about 12-15k a year. I picked up the car in Munich in May 2014, put 2k miles on it,…

Thanks for posting Bricks, I really appreciate it! I know the BMW fans are going to hate me for this, but I plan on replacing my 428i after it reaches 125k miles. I would like to buy a used Lexus in the future, possibly looking at the RC500 or another Lexus. What would be your recommended route for procuring an…

1. Dealer gets $750 in profit, not 250. They can do this because European Delivery cars do not come out of their allocation ( dedicated M cars do, like M2, M3, etc). Allocation is basically how many new cars a dealership can get from BMW based on their sales performance. For European Delivery, they’re just acting as…

Unfortunately, the money factor is non adjustable now. They no longer allow money factor deposits for BMW, so the money factor value is going to be a hard value.

Ask away and I shall answer!

I am unsure about Audi, but I’ll pretend we’re talking about a BMW here. Your negotiated residual price is agreed upon when you sign the lease, unfortunately it is not possible to change it in the future. However, if you find a good dealership, they will most likely be able to offer you a discount on your A6. From…

For everyone that is interested in the European Delivery calculator for BMW I was talking about, I’ll link it below. You can copy that spreadsheet and pull into your own Google drive. You’ll have to modify certain things like removing money factor deposits. I know I posted this in as replies, but maybe it’ll…

Here’s the European Delivery and lease calculator. You can copy that spreadsheet and pull into your own Google drive. You’ll have to modify certain things like removing money factor deposits.

You got it!

Best part is, I got twice the deal by leasing first and then financing. Car’s MSRP was 49.9k. For the European Delivery invoice, I negotiated the car down to roughly 44k from 49.9k. Then, after the lease was over, it was negotiated from about 30k down to 23.5k. In that savings, I bought an extended warranty that…

I encountered something similar when trying to buy out my 428i lease from BMW. I know by going on Bimmerfest and doing a bit of asking, that cars are leased out from BMW Financial in the USA. They are the lien holder on that BMW. When the lease is over, a BMW dealership can buy out that BMW from BMW Financial at…

To be fair Rafi, it’s the same type of gun, not the same gun.

I am one of those weird people that didn’t like Persona 5 all that much. I’d give that game a 6/10. This is coming from a guy who loves JRPGs, especially the old school ones. Persona 5 was way too repetitive and grindy for me.

Owned a 1997 3000GT SL, worst car I ever owned. It was worse than my Nissan Sentra GXE. I pointed out all the problems with the car and how badly it was built when Tavarish was showing off that he was restoring a 3000GT.
