No Doubt! Camera and glass alone make it an expensive month.

Case of these! Most potent yet pleasing car freshners on earth. Been using the brand for years in different cars. Always get compliments how nice my cars smell.

I think I bought (wife shook his hand) a 77 SuperBeatle for $2500 this weekend. The youngest wants it, and it's now reported to be running. Only one axle has working brakes, and no lights.

That would have been good enough for us back in the day.

Good way to teach the youngest about the value of being mechanically inclined.

For the first 10 years of my driving career i always had: 1 gallon of water, 1 roll of duct tape, 1 package of zip ties, wire cutters/crimpers with butt connectors, 2 spare towels, 2 screw drivers, and a pair of pliers, a 10mm 12mm 14mm box end wrench with me in the car at all times.

The wife agreed only since son said he will learn to wrench it. Going to put the disc brake conversions on both axles, have to repair those lights, MAY drop the whole drive train and replace with new. The block supposedly has about 55K on it, and a crate motor runs about $1200. Moon roof doesn't open, and the front door/window seals need replacement.
I certainly hope he wants something other than that 7-up green it is now!

Treated yourself to the most problematic car, according to Consumer Reports

Seriously though...looks nice.

Still have the Z4. I wanted the RWD but the 2015 RWD models won't hit the floors until early next year. Should have waited and saved the 2k.

Fully warrantied. If the transmission falls out let them deal with it. Z4 has given me so many problems my service advisor is coming over for thanksgiving dinner. But it's still a blast to drive!

Just made my 3'er a slug...

Any Duc owners out there? First Duc, and definitely a noob to these beasts. Looking for advice, recommendations, etc...

Mods - ASV levers, GP Shift kit, KN filter, Scotts Steering Damper (to be installed)...

Next Mods - exhaust and CF bits ... work in progress.
