The $1600 price tag BMW wanted for the original.

Ah, sorry. Thought you were changing it due to the "I hate the muffler" comment.

Congrats on the pickup, yeah that car looks sweet, almost a shame to use it for a winter beater. Does it take regular juice or does it demand premium swill?

It is when your getting the service done at BMW, which this car has been going to since 88. He was showing me all the receipts and stuff and I couldnt beleive what they charge for some stuff. Glad all the major stuff was recently done, cuz I wouldnt have bought it if it didnt. Most BMW's ive been in have that useless fuel guage thing.
Needs an ebrake cable for safety, $40 for that, He was telling me BMW was charging $350 for install. :o Fawk dat, I'll do it myself.

I don't know what it is about e-brake replacement prices.... The guy who did the pre-purchase inspection on my Tercel before I sold it wanted something stupid like 200$ just to tighten the frigging cable!!!
And then the guy wanted 350$ to replace the break pads, not the rotors or anything.... I laughed when he told me the price, and I said ' any idiot with one hour and a new set of pads from C.Tire can do the job'...
But.. nice ride still the same :)
Oh, and tell the GF to come by and apply... we need servers ASAP
Does a shorty anntena count as a mod??

Ok, will do, her only problem is she is not the best at speaking french. She undertands it 100% (I mean she did live in Embrun half her life) but she needs practice in the speech part. She gets by at the current restauraunt. I'll tell her to apply.
