Really nice, low mileage E38's can still go for over $10k.

Most aftermarket parts don’t add value, even nice ones.

Here’s a rule all “Master Technicians” need to learn before they list their mutts on CL.

You sure those aren’t just AC units running their heat pump? I was confused at first when I moved to a warmer climate and heard AC units running all over the neighborhood in the winter.

You can’t import a car, that would otherwise be illegal, that was ever a street legal car, to turn into a race-car. There’s a provision in the NHTSA regulations saying they have to have been untitled “off-road” vehicles since new to be exempt.

You can get a new Maxima for under $30k without too much penalty. My S was barely over 29k, I don’t know what MSRP is however. 300 hp, nav, remote entry/start, etc, but cloth seats and no sunroof.

If you do this, make sure your bag is easy to unpack and repack.

Pretty sure that’s a Greenwood body-kit too. That has to be worth a couple puns...

How about improving the ability to turn off the alarms once they go off?

Kids are often cited as a yard-keeping reason, but from watching my neighborhood full of children, all yards are used for is to run straight through to go play in the street, and for the storing of unused toys.

You need to re-read that precedent I cited for you, Tennessee v Garner, because you are 100% incorrect as to its holding.

What car has a proximity key where you can hit a button and turn it off? Genuinely curious, I’ve never heard of this. Plenty can turn it on from the key, and plenty will shut off if you remote start it, and don’t hit the button on the dash with the key in your pocket before putting in it drive.

Probable cause is a standard with very specific legal requirements that must be articulated, just saying I “thought he would” is not sufficient.

I’m a guy who generally doesn’t like hug greetings, but I’m left with a quandary, that I assume is mostly my problem, and more than a little sexist.

Attorney here, you are wrong.

I’m never buying one, but it would please me greatly if the rest of the Lexus/BMW/Benz crossovers in my neighborhood would trade them in on these. If only to hear its very-nice-for-a-CUV burbling & popping exhaust sounds as it drives by.

Combined with the fact that the poster claims he can’t remember shutting it off or not, and the subsequent fire, lead me to to believe that’s what we’re seeing.

It is funny they have the blacked out tent for hiding it, with the M-logo and “Too many Secrets” printed on it.

Pretty sure he left it running after he hit the deer, from the steam visible in the pics.

Driving on the interstate through the empty Western US= “two full grueling days driving”
