Saved 2008 e90

slowe90m3 · 08-09-2020, 07:53 AM

Hey guys. It's all a ponzi scheme no doubt, but hey they saved my 100k mile e90 right up to 13k threshold - they valued car at top of range. No structure damage.

Anyone know where I can get a replacement hi-fi amp for 2008?

Not in Tampa, they almost doubled the competition's rates when I moved down here.

There is one for sale in the classifieds and I have one too if your interested. But tbh I would get the bavsound amp, its worth the extra cash.

downside to a 2008...no bavsound - have to find a replacement OEM

Yes they are. Ready for a story...

Guy pulled out in front of me, did illegal uturn, took his time, I tried an evasive maneuver to right to miss him, but pedestrian in crosswalk to slammed on brakes, tagged his passenger side rear...he said my fault...ha.

He had USAA too.

No police report due to Covid. Wrote up statement, took pics, created diagram.

Became a he said/she said case. I won fortunately. Their only argument was I did not perform an evasive maneuver.

It's being converted to a track spec car now :-)

Its an aftermarket, and a better sounding, replacement amp for the hifi amp. If you buy one then you plug it to the amp's connection instead of the hifi amp.

nick3753 · 08-10-2020, 09:45 AM

Can't help with the amp, but now is the perfect time to get a Euro bumper.
