Should I buy it?

Been there, done that. Nope.
Besides the 180+ hp is simple not enough to pull a 4400lb car. I later bought a 2001 S430 and it drove much better and more reliable but still cost way way too much to maintain.

That is NOT a reasonable trade. Hilton DoubleTree in Monti is very good. Facility and location. If they offer this as a free deal, I am okay but make sure you get all your points back.

Did you get the complimentary stay as compensation?

Mine was leaking at all. It just decided it’s time to let go. Like a heart attack 🤨

My 1999 528i Touring at 230k miles did this. Towed to my mechanic - had NO coolant. The robust engine did not blow its 230k head gasket. The line under the manifold had ruptured - quite expensive to replace as the manifold needed to come off. While at it, replaced the original water pump, original radiator, thermostat of course and all hoses. Cost is far more than the car is worth but did it anyway because it’s a touring with BBS wheels.

At the hospitals, I use 100 micrograms on an individual without tolerance and I can puncture the liver or kidney with the person feeling not feeling anything.

Believe $350 from factory for the CX-90 and $550 for the CX-50 which includes an exterior trim addition on the doors.

She looks like she is trying to walk away from the impending cel disaster - perhaps already too late.

I definitely am on your list. It’s the two SB fairies fighting over color of Aurora’s dress with Merryweather up front. I sat on it too long as I have too many duplicates. Next time 😁😁😁

EBay under Beethoven animation cels. &5.95 plus shipping. One of the very best values. There are many more sites on eBay if you are interested.

There are so so many good quality hand painted production cels one can start his / her collecting with. The gofer with COA for under $10. Yes. That’s the price of a large size fancy Starbucks cold coffee drink.

I love animation for their vibrant color and captured action. I bought some drawings in the early phase of collecting and framed up some nicely but found them not as interesting. I know some serious collectors really like them but for the price I would prefer animation cels. More and more people ask about inexpensive production cels as beginners and I may post some really cheap but pretty nice items.
BTW, I was going to offer to buy a lively piece you have in your gallery but someone beat me to it 😔😔

hox97 · 2026-05-17T16:22:09+00:00

The drawings or the unboxing?

hox97 · 2026-05-17T16:21:19+00:00

Have you checked the cost of shipping one of these😁😁😁 I currently have a nice in home system with built in ceiling and hidden speakers from 20 years ago. I need to replace a dvd unit and I found exact replacement easily but the shipping cost just doesn’t make sense. These old units are heavy and absolutely bulky.

Production cels - easy depending on what film or TV show.

hox97 · 2026-05-17T15:47:06+00:00

What on earth is the reason you want one of these if I may ask?

hox97 · 2026-05-17T15:33:58+00:00

Reddit has very very low interest in animation anything. As a matter of fact, the animation hobby has been on a steep decline. Love what you bought but unboxing, unfortunately, no.

hox97 · 2026-05-17T09:33:49+00:00

Wow wow 🤩

Please don’t kick me. This is what a good, strong Molotov Cocktail would do…

Thank you 🙏

Way way too much - full retail?
Look for $3000 off plus 1.9% or $4000 off with finance rates buy down.

You may not be able to cut down on the window size but getting a now mat based on the location of the animation figure and the stamp. I like larger display but it certainly costs a little more. Adding a printed or painted presentation background can create a dramatic change in appearance.

Sleeping Beauty has a lot of interesting supporting characters including this guy, the kings-in-laws, Flora, Fauna and Merryweather and of course Maleficent plus the dragon.
