Honestly......I'm sooooo glad to be done with it. Drama, drama drama. Best analogy was.... "like being married to a sex starved super-model......with a 500 dollar a day coke habit".

Soooo happy to be in a relationship with the sexy girl next door. Mary-Anne vs Ginger. LOL.

Honestly, just got to the E65 forum there and look at the first page. EVERY post is either, valve stem seals, oil leaks, transmission failures, Idrive failures, Guibo joint issues, carboned up heads, etc. It's an utter joke.
OMG, I feel your pain bro, so sad but true. I pulled more chickens in my 2nd 735i then Charlie Sheen's hangovers and it ran strong for like 175K, I just had to add oil and antifreeze everyday, then twice a day, not sure where it all went, but it ran good, the day I sold it, it wouldn't start and it never ran again--donated and DOA.

Yeah I seen a Flying Spur on the 405 yesterday, man that car was a beast. The one thing I do like about the 7's is all those camera options, roof cam, side cam, rear cam and new for 2015 probably, an engine cam, so you know when your pistons are flying out haha. Last time I was on the beemer lot, this cool sales guy and I were checking out all the 7's rolling in for service and as we both looked on he said, thousand dollars a pop, thousand dollars a pop, then he said Range Rovers were 2k a pop lol.

I too came from the Big Money Waste dark side.. have had an M-5 a 6 and 7 series car and they were all way too much drama... The wife hates the word used in the house...LOL

Seriously I threw allot of money at those cars and yes when they ran they ran hard... But they fell hard as well...

Sigh... I am going to go out to lunch and kick my POS CT200
Ryan you made me chuckle...

All good brother drop you can always get a 460 soon enough...

PETEY is yours a sports package? On the cars for sale, I have been seeing those wheels on the sports package.

All true brotha. Can't wait to get mine. Till then I am blocking you, so I don't have to see your thread/pics

I drive my CT200 at 80-85mph all the time, no issues. Thing I hate about the car, is it is the ONLY car I have owned, where I have to be full throttle 3-4 times a day to keep up with traffic! I used to LOVE freeway onramps more than morning Bjs..with this car..I hate it. At full throttle, I get dusted by everything on the road. Only good thing is with the electric battery torque 0-40 isn't bad. After that it falls on its face.

Well the wheel I had in the trunk as the "spare" was the factory 18" from 2007, so i think the owner ditched them and had these put on.

Also, Sport Package and Executive Class Seating Package aren't/weren't and option together.

Hey Hey you mentioned getting chicks like a few times in your 735...I wanna know what kind of women? BBWs?

Cuz around here women know the diff between a lowly 740 and a 760iL.....

jsingh13, thanks for those photos!

I've been wanting to see that wider wing installed from a few different angles. Also which roof spoiler? DAR?
