You in LA, in addition to the high monthly BMW lease payments, the $500 annual car registration fees, mandatory $2k/year full coverage car insurance, higher premium fuel usage at $5/gal, replacement runflat tires at $1500 a set, BMW $900 lease acquisition, $500 lease turn in fees, extra miles charges, and “outside the norm wear tear” costs at lease turn in will eat you alive.
It an internal lithium ion fire. calling the fire dept in this case would be the equivalent of a black man calling the police for help while being robbed by a white guy. BEST case scenario they maybe don shoot your dog; I be lucky if fire department didn use any water and burn down my whole fucking house.
This is true of all cars, even Hondas of that era (specifically the Accord Traction Control pump). Things like that are NCT fails too.Do you know a good independent mechanic? If not, find one.For 2k, an E90 will have interstellar mileage at this point too.Ask about the Swirl flaps and if they have been replaced.
The Audi TT coupe does not have enough driver leg support. I am 5′ 7″ and had gotten used to very comfortable bucket seats in the Infiniti G35. The TT seats are shorter and do not extend far enough forward to provide the appropriate level of thigh support. I’ve tried adjusting the seat in every possible position to no avail. I also spent hours Googling to see if I could find seat extenders that would work with the TT and could not find any.
November 23 2017EmailTwitterPinterestFacebookMartina Starke is happy. She has created beauty. “A great car has to look beautiful on the road,” she says. BMW’s head of brand vision and brand design has led the team behind the concept car for the new BMW Concept 8 Series a car that displays its lineage, and is at the same time boldly new. What it evinces most spectacularly is how to make a machine that has dynamism, while achieving a sumptuous degree of luxury and style. “The dynamic look comes from the form language,” she says. “You want a car that speaks to you directly when you see it for the first time.”
“stomping on a mans head with his boots as hard as he could” (bolding added). In addition, you have now indicated that there was more than one stomp; seems to me that multiple “full force” stomps will almost certainly break a neck. Not necessarily so with and easy kick or even a hard one, but “full force” multiple kicks? Do you retract the bolded part or do you offer your tests taken to substantiate the claim as true?
The public had also become disenchanted with an event that had become more of an arms race than a yacht race, and the legal bickering had scared off many potential commercial partners. And to sum up just how bitter and twisted the America’s Cup had become, allegations surfaced that a representative of Alinghi’s yacht club had tried to put pressure on the principal race officer to prevent the start of the second race by refusing to operate the starting signals.
I chime in here because I have extensive experience with both. The M235/240 has a superior powertrain. It smoother, less peaky, and revs more freely. Body control is also superior on the BMW through the corners, but it does ride harsher than the Benz due to the short wheelbase. The Benz has a hugely superior EPS system and turns in sharper, making it feel like a more aggressive car. The BMW is a lot more playful in the corner, though, where the Benz can be overly neutral.
I drove a 991.2 911 before I bought the Evora. It was a very capable car that was completely soulless and uninspiring. Never been more disappointed after driving a car because of how high my expectations were for it. I am pretty positive that I don want any modern Porsche that is not a GT car (which I have ridden in on track and they are amazing). The Evora, on the other hand, feels special every time I get in it. It looks exotic, Lotus even managed to make it sound exotic, and you feel completely connected to the road when you drive it. The steering feedback and directness is unmatched, the shifter assembly is so percise and tactile, the ride is compliant with very little body roll, and that Toyota V6 sounds like it came from Italy. It not a numbers car for magazines. It simply an exceptional driver car. It still makes me smile everything I drive it.
Instead, the real money can be made with Ferraris that have a racing heritage. Bonhams sold a 1962 Ferrari 250 GTO in 2014 for $38.1 million, which set a new world auction record at the time. That was broken four years later, when RM Sotheby’s found a buyer willing to drop $48.4 million for one. A third 250 GTO exchanged hands for $70 million in a private sale.
Last week the weather was nice so I tried to send the departure times to the car using the Connected app on my iPhone, and it failed. I did manage to get the climatize feature to work once, from the old i Remote app, but it also has failed every time I tried to send the departure times to the car.
If the project is an investment property, a secondary kitchen or bath, or perhaps for a house you know you’ll be selling soon, the imported RTA cabinets are a great buy. They offer sound value and great window dressing. I am a custom cabinet maker and finisher and what blows me away with JSI cabinets is the finish. They use sherwin williams conversion varnish finishes. SAME AS CUSTOM SHOPS! I recently found out that JSI sells spray cans of matching finishes and can provide the sherwin williams color codes (either walcraft or rtawoodcabinets can get those for you). That is a big deal. So many China cabs are coated with who knows what. Sherwin conversion varnish (MUCH better than lacquer which is on most china cabinets) SOLD! As Sam said, JSI does sell assembled cabinets as well sio you do not have to deal with the assembly. We are only using JSI in our homes now. Hands down the best import cabinet on the market imo.18 months ago
Break ins happen, and I willing to bet your Ranger was hit instead of those BMW or MB because they knew the truck likely didn have an alarm and because of the aftermarket radio (I sure the BMW will have a pricey radio module, but people aren buying stolen 2016 BMW parts on craigslist unlike generic headunits).
If you have both of these symptoms then the culprit is very likely to be a stripped gear inside the transfer case motor. The transfer case actuator motor is a small motor that is bolted on to the transfer case and can be removed and replaced (or repaired with a new internal gear).
While the other may have attributes and abilities that you aspire to have or wish you had, your putting them on a pedestal continually keeps these same attributes and abilities out of your reach. You have given your power over to the person on a pedestal. Often groups of people will elevate another to pedestal power and this is how cults come into being. Whether the person has been placed there by the false precepts of others or demanded to be put their by some false delusions of their own, nobody belongs on a pedestal at least nobody who is alive. Even then some of mankind’s great icons have had extreme personality flaws and areas of their lives in which they were barely functioning.
As for make/model recommendations, it’s really such a broad category. Look up safety ratings for cars in your price range. To plan ahead for the future, look for a car that has 2 sets of LATCH anchors you’re going to need a top tether anchor for each forward facing car seat, so you need 2 for twins.
Since 2003, Alpinas have been put together on specialproduction lines at BMW’s Munich, Dingolfing and Regensburg plants in Germany and its Spartanburg factory in the US, with every model being sent to Alpina’s headquarters in Buchloe for the finishing touches to be applied. Around 250 employees work at the Buchloe HQ where Alpina has been based since 1970 and it is from there that the Alpina components are shipped to the BMW assembly lines. It is at Buchloe, too,that modelling and prototyping are carried out, engine and gearbox upgrades are designed, specialised parts are made and the in house saddlery workshop produces the cars’ superb hand stitched interiors usingflawless Lavalina leathers.

You can buy this in multiple stages, from a base kit up to fully built, and the prices range. Most people recommend having about $100,000 to build a decent one, although it can get more expensive if you want 500bhp and really good breaks. No matter what you prefer, or can get cheap, you have to put a Ford engine in the back. It’s just wrong not to!
But bfakn.club there was that word that got it all done for me. Deserve. It was the one word that I was trying to get at all along. It just never made it past my tongue, and certainly never made it past my keyboard and onto the screen in any of my hubs. In reality, looking back, I kind of feel like an idiot actually. God, it’s so simple. And I didn’t think of it. Carolina Muscle did. Another hubber. Not me. In a word he got it done. In a word he had summed up everything I had been trying to get across. After I read it, I thought with some exaggeration of course that I had quite literally found the Holy Grail in all of Its glory.
Used” front luxury cars depreciate way more steeply than most. You might want to investigate that a little before buying new. If you like me you could never have enough money to be happy wasting it.Can I ask why you considering the car if you can wrap your mind around it? I love cars too so no typical /r/pf judgment, but if you coming from something like a Corolla why not something in the middle? A $30K Mustang V 8 or even the Ecoboost, a recent $15K used Miata, hell, even a used BMW 340i or the prior gen 335i? Plenty of fun to be had without needing to buy an M3 rocketship that will empty your wallet every time you need a repair.Personally I think you can afford it but if you feeling hesitance already, why not save yourself ten grand, thirty grand, etc.
7. Caterham Super 7 R400Caterham is known around the world for their Lotus 7 replica. In fact, it’s not really a replica. It’s more of a continuation of the original design. It has, of course, been upgraded and developed over the years, and this, the R400 Superlight is the best of the build it yourself kits.
They can be done up so nice like you mentioned with the widebody kits. They can be tuned really nice as well. I definitely like mine stock and have no intention of doing any of that. Would like a louder supercar like exhaust I guess but its awesome as it is.
The thing is if something as small as this gets caught in post race scrutineering it reflects just as badly on the scrutineers because its small enough that its not going to have a major effect on the race but still enough to DQ a team and waste their weekend (or in this case few months) which would been just fine if the scrutineers spotted it first time. Usually an apology from the organisers is in order, since its FIA sanctioned thats probably not going to happen.
Coverage Yes this is $0 amount. This is all the expenses that I was covered for. This includes multiple tire rotations, windshield cracks, car getting towed. Everytime that I have received a bill, but my insurance has covered it. It is important to note that I would have had to pay for it if I was not insured. For example a windshield repair bill would have an amount of $125 but then a subtraction of $125 as well.
However, the quality of its upgrades and the remarkable improvements they offered over the standard vehicles ensured that, as Enzo Ferrari liked tosay, Alpina has always made “one less car than themarket demands”. Which is hardly surprising, giventhe fact that its B7 Turbo of 1978 was called “the world’s fastest sedan”, the B7 Turbo Coup of 1982 was as quick as a Porsche 911 Turbo, and the B10Bi Turbo of 1989was described bythe late and highly respected Belgian racing driver and Road Track journalist Paul Frre as “the best four door in the world”. And, returning to the subject ofFerraris, thelarge and luxurious Alpina B12 6.0 of 1999 could cover a kilometre from a standing start in just 23.6 seconds swifter than the Prancing Horse marque’scontemporary F355.
My advice would be to wait an try to score a great deal. I looked on the internet almost everyday for 3 4 months before this car popped up. It happens a decent amount at luxury dealerships, from what I understand, where a person will come in and buy the lower end 3 series and then want to upgrade a month later.
Dealership 2 I decided I would buy a Mini, despite my negative experience, but it took months for me to get to that point. I made an appointment with this dealership to test drive a vehicle. When I arrived, I was advised there were no automatics to test drive, as they were all still “wrapped up.” They had a lot full of cars, but none of them were automatics. The salesman had the gall to state I could still make a down payment on a car, even though I hadn’t test driven the one I wanted yet. I walked out as I was very upset.
“We’ve made no decision on venue, we have no firm decision on a date, but we do have a Challenger of Record,” Ellison explained. “But one thing I’d like to assure people on about the 34th America’s Cup is that there will be a completely independent jury, there will be completely independent umpires. It will be an independent group that manages the next America’s Cup and it will be a level playing field for all competitors.” And despite having won, Ellison was clearly keen to ensure that no one forgot about the two year struggle his team had undergone in its attempt to regain equilibrium, and his winner’s speech struck a chord with those who had witnessed the breakdown of the Cup.
I mean, at the end of the day there no right answer. But, I will say that the market has spoken. I could buy a Golf R and go enjoy it by myself 96% of the time. The other 3.9% of the time it just me and one passenger in front. And the other 0.1% of the time it can carry people in the back, or dogs, or anything. Mostly no one is buying a Civic Type R just because it a more practical version of a car that can carry a baby seat, lol. They buying it because it the best car for them in their class, and it just happens to have 4 doors. Just because you have the back doors doesn mean that you have to use them.
Eh I just don agree with that. They are elite at one task within a sport. Baseball is very complicated. You could have an athletic freak in centerfield and CC Sabathia on the mound. I believe that CC is top of his class at what he does. But my take is that athleticism is generally a trait that carries to multiple sports. That doesn mean you are skilled at multiple sports but the overall trait of being athletic can help you in multiple sports. A lot of baseball players are not that. They are just incredibly good at fundamentals and technique. CC Sabathia has to basically only throw a ball from point A to point B. Granted he one of the best in the world at that but outside of that what does he do in baseball that makes him an elite athlete? He an elite baseball player but not an elite athlete.
