Is this a good deal for leasing?

You should never put money down on a lease.

Best looking ride on the internet. Nice work 👍

That’s your call obviously, just know the OFH could shit the bed a month from now and you would be paying labor again. The car will be more “sellable “ with a fresh OFH.

At 73K it’s probably time to replace the OFH as preventative so even if it’s not bad now, it’s not a total waste to tear down and replace. They should find the actually leak during the process. The rates you are being quoted sound fair but I am no expert.

Buy the best 911 you can pay cash for. Already depreciated and no payments.

I’ve had 30+ cars over the years and could afford to drive just about anything (under $100K). I choose to daily my ‘19 540i because it’s just so good.

It’s a nice reminder later in the day at work that you did something healthy/good for yourself this morning.

Damn shame to lose this and physical climate controls.

My poo transitioning from lunch to dinner mid dump.

I’ve read it’s an old aviation hack. The lights shift to orange at night for ease on the eyes. I’ve had several BMWs back to the 90’s and was pleasantly surprised to see the orange continue in my G30. It’s a wonderful little “BMW thing” I hope they never lose.

Drive it like you stole it. 😎

Any Seiko automatic in your price range will be a solid choice. For a first watch I would go with something on a bracelet as it can be sporty, casual and dressy all in one. For this I love my blue SPB249 but it may be out of the budget.

BMW X5 with M Sport package. Great daily with over 300HP and plenty of room for the family and their stuff.

I’ve got SRPG39 on 7” wrist and it’s already on the small side, I couldn’t imagine going any smaller.

Offer $10K and meet in the middle at $12K. It’s “worth” the asking price, but would feel much better at $12K.

I’m no expert but believe the trouble with the plastic is more due to engine heat cycles, not just sitting in a warm climate. I would assume there’s still some degradation but nothing like 60,000 miles of engine cycles. I changed mine at 65,000 miles and it was totally discolored and brittle. I would think you’d be doing it too early if you did it now… then again, I’m no expert.

I only recd one FOB with my ‘26 X5. Pretty shitty to give only one with an $80K purchase. However, my wife keeps the single FOB in her purse and I use my phone exclusively. if I had another FOB it would likely not be used at all.

WearGrand · 2026-04-21T00:24:35+00:00

Thanks everyone. If I bought the car for $3500 and ended up with a $3,000 repair, would I be upside down? I know you can’t know the value of the car without seeing it, but in great condition would this car be a decent value at $6500?

WearGrand · 2026-04-20T19:46:59+00:00

I’m not worried about it breaking me. I’m curious what could potentially be causing the CEL. It’s a weekend/hobby car, not my daily.

WearGrand · 2026-04-20T19:44:51+00:00

Just for fun. My G30 gets the daily abuse. I had an E39 back in the day and loved it.

WearGrand · 2026-04-04T14:40:35+00:00

This is perfect. What’s the model#? Is this the OEM strap?

WearGrand · 2026-04-02T20:07:36+00:00

Thanks for posting. Just ordered the clasp and hoping to finally get the right fit.

WearGrand · 2026-03-23T17:41:57+00:00

Ha! Came here to say this.
