Female registration is $69, room is $324.
I know of a couple people who would have paid her $5-600 for the combo, mainly cause they wanted the room...

btw do you guys remember that F30 commercial contest? My friend and his buddy won

They're debating on keeping it (and one friend pays the half to the other one), or selling it and splitting what they get..

[WesleyC]

It's kind of crappy to sell the car, but since 2 people are involved, I understand.

Is the car a 328i or 335i?

[GOLFFRR]

I wonder if they are even allowed to sell it right away or if by winning the contract states they have to keep it for a certain time period?

328i. But Terry is already dynoing the new F30 in the 250whp range. I'm thinking once he gets it to FBO + Meth it should be hitting 330whpish. So the new 328i is pretty nice.

A whole hell of a lot more potential than the na i6 of old...

328i

I advocate using it for like a year, max 2 and selling it after.

Because this way, most of it's depreciation has already occured, and he can use the lump sum to invest in something

Honestly, I told him if he can get a good dollar amount now, then he should sell it. There's a couple things one can do with ~$15k lump sum of cash... (38k car, tax.. looking at about keeping 30k or so (guesstimating), split between two of them is about 15k)

cause if they don't sell it, one friend has to pay half of the value to the other one... he doesn't have that cash and would need to get an auto loan.

complicated, but who cares lol. either way they each just came up on some good $$ lol

Keep da F30!!!!!!!!!

Darren, your bumper looks great. The thought of combining the 1M and M3 bumper hadn't even crossed my mind.

When I said that I had two possible ideas of what you were doing, I was way off lol. My first idea was that you might be doing a center or side exhaust. A center exhaust wouldn't be too hard, but a side exhaust would cost a lot of money. Second, I thought you might be converting your hubs to center-locking hubs, but that is about a 15k-20k job (including new wheels, of course).

Awwwww yea I bet it is going to look amazing.

Does LTBMW do all of the design work or do they outsource it to another company?
