Carbon build-up was primarily treated by walnut blasting, which was a $800-$1,000 job back when I was in the scene messing around with the N54. Valve cover is not fun, was a moderate job on the N54 and became a fucking nightmare on my N62 motor. That damned N62 was a VC, VCG, alternator gasket...

My biggest questions is the list below, I promise I am not speaking from significant experience on BMW products. Promise. (okay, maybe I am bitter) Oil consumption. How is the transmission holding up, this mileage is definitely in the range where a fluid flush is recommended for the ZF8 unit...

Damn, I just want to see the service records and history on this vehicle. That'd really tell a lot on what can be expected at higher mileage, since this is definitely in the realm where things can start going sideways really fast in the not-fun way.

I don't think any major country will be shipping / receiving goods from Russia in the meantime. Especially NATO-affiliated ones...

They just started a war, I don't think international packages is their priority right now...

At MSRP? What a weird system, no deposit to hold your place in line?

I contacted the dealer requesting information on one of the vehicles that was in transit and received a prompt reply from the Sales Manager, Alan, who told me about the list. Absolute Zero is going to be a wait, since there's another person on that list who's been waiting since November '21...

I feel like I was able to sell my vehicle for higher since it could still be reconditioned to a certified vehicle. I've noticed that once a car hits 5 years old, the depreciation starts to slow down since it's at the bottom end of it's value.

My experience with Vroom, CarMax and Carvana is that whatever they offer you, a local dealer will typically offer 10-15% more to buy your vehicle outright or as trade-in. I just recently sold my 2019 Lexus ES350 F-sport with 53K miles on the odo, 1 significant accident on file (sister borrowed...

For when you really want that Mustard and Ketchup look. Throw on some white wheels for your Mayo.

San Francisco Toyota surprisingly is selling Supra's at MSRP but you must join the waiting list. $500 deposit and a copy of your ID. Currently on the list, and they in the process of receiving their February allotment of 3 Supras which have all been accounted for. Currently 4th on the list, with...

Great to hear, did they play any games with you when the car arrived like bullshit accessories that were installed at the dealer vs port installed? Looking to make this a painless transaction and I haven't really dealt with a "normal" brand like Toyota/Honda in ages, my last experience left a...

I was quoted a 2-3 month wait at the very latest, but as mentioned I am first right now for anything that isn't a Nitro Yellow, Phantom Grey or a White w/ red interior. These 3 specific builds have been on the list since November, so yeah.... They receive 2-4 Supra's a month and are receiving...

But at the end of the day you are still sourcing BMW parts, on a low production count car. We haven't seen any high mileage Supra's that have crossed the 60K mark, but I would not be surprised to see typical BMW issues where the entire cooling system is considered a maintenance cost, up to and...

San Francisco Toyota is selling 3.0 Premiums at MSRP, but there's a waiting list. $500 deposit and a copy of your driver's license. Emailed a request for information, received a prompt reply and initiated a phone call with the sales manager, who told me that they were 'preselling' Supra's at...

FWIW. I was looking at a 2021 Supra (March '21 production date) with 1200 miles on it from Carmax that was being listed for 60,999. They offered their MaxCare warranty for an extra $2,150 to cover the vehicle for 150K total vehicle miles or 5 years, whichever came first. $50 deductible plan. In...
