$30k (after IMS fix, taxes) for a clean, modern, reliable Porsche* that you could daily?
BMW should have stuck to making gas chambers.
They just aren't built to last. They're good mostly, through the warranty and certified pre-owned. Then at about 100K miles, they start to come apart. Need a new cooling system and a new suspension.
This stings because it's so familiar. Everything seems like an easy enough fix when picking up a cheap "premium" car, it's just death by a thousand cuts.
heheh - this is even funnier because at a point in the past on Jalopnik I made a pretty direct comment about a brown, 325xi, manual station wagon I had (I said it was a piece of crap) - and oh did the fanboys howl.
I crashed a 2003 E55 AMG at triple digit speeds, was ejected from the vehicle and felt perfectly fine after minus a few cuts...a few hours later i had severe stomach pain and had to have some of my intestine removed though lol
wow bro, i am almost in tears. that is such a stand up thing to do. giving back something like that (something i probably will never get a change to do) to someone who did not ask for anything is why i read this website. its the human stories that i fall in love with here, and this is no different.
This here, ladies and gentlemen, is why on occasion we can indeed have nice things - because people like Jake, SFMikee and Jason exist. Well done sirs, well done. It is moments like this when I think maybe, just maybe humanity isn't totally lost afterall.
SFMikee hasn't posted since December of last year.
I'm just trying to get out of the red on my karmic debt here
