Welcome to the IHoP

Recommended Posts

I didn't for once look at the idrive, nor those controls on either car. The M was a 2010 so the newer one which I noticed but that isn't actually important to me.

Power, handling, capability to tow, and seat both kids are what I need. Not so confident the M will fit in my budget, but I think I'm okay with just the TT V8.

I used to be all AMG AMG... But now having played with the current m3 I think AMG is more a winner in the big cars....

I'd take an Alpina B7 over a S63

Im so sad about my finances. it makes me sick. I now have to decide if I dump the truck and buy a different giant SUV or pick up, or pay to have the expy completely overhauled newelectric etc etc. I do <3 Gertrude. she is my favorite vehicle I have ever owned. Even through all the shit.

The TT v8 was not in what I drove...

I was in one! benz fits fat dudes like me better.

Again I 4-5 years ago so maybe i would feel different. i do love the massage seats in AMG......

Are those 2 at similar price points? Maybe a Brabus S would do you right.

But if I were to get a car, it'd be a Panamera. Can't afford the Turbo though and don't think I could "settle"

Yikes, with just a chip 495 horsepower at 5000 rpm and 573 lb-ft torque at 3500 rpm from the non-M. Uh-oh. It's a $3k chip but hmm....

also wondering if I can hide it from BMW and still have the car be CPO'd.

Get rid of the expy, all it does is cause troubles.

Technically you cannot void a warranty through a chip unless they can prove without a doubt that the chip caused the failure.

The first version of the x6 wasn't an N.A. v8?

In the past few years my tastes have changed dramaticly. And my perception.
