Not sure if I believe the sales guy yesterday, but he said he has a guy who installs PPF with ceramic built into it. Has anyone heard of this? I can't seem to find evidence. Not this car, but on my X3MC it cost me ~4K for PPF of the full front, headlights, and mirrors and ceramic coating over...

I'll ask! Ha! I really appreciate everyone's assistance through this process. THANK YOU EVERYONE! :grouphug:

Hmmmm....I really would prefer the Michelins as I have had great experience with their tires. I guess it depends, technically she won't need them until Oct/Nov and could drive around on the OEMs and maybe production might start again? But if there is a market for the OEMs with like 20 miles on...

Thanks Steve! Def will post pics once we buy one. LOL! I'm sure she'll drive it sometimes! :p Well of course! But honestly my biggest excitement will be modding it. Not "real" mods like engine or suspension (I don't like to tempt warranties) but things like CF mirror caps, CF hood...

Yes. It makes it easier when it's not my car :) My gf is chomping at the bit but I hope we can close a deal this week or weekend. My incentive is she doesn't like to drive my big truck (Armada) and I won't let her take the X3MC so I have to drive her everywhere!

From my current searching it seems that grey/tungsten is what they have and perhaps a black. Yellow only seems common on the 2.0 and very few red. There are a handful of whites which we are focusing on though. What's funny is the salesmen have very strong opinions on which color we should...

Thanks - I feel comfortable with the decision. Here's the thing, buying from someone who treated us like this is saying their behavior is ok. It is not and walking is the only way to covey that. If I were in his shoes, I would lose the emotions and say "I'm sorry we were not able to come to...

Meaning they had them prior and ran out?

Excellent - thanks for the info!

The M buttons on a BMW steering wheel are for mode presets. So you can set engine/suspension/steering to each value you want and then save it as a preset (one preset per button) as they let you change each value separately. On the Supra, there is just "Sport" mode. It would actually be cool...

That's a fair point. The problem isn't so much the price but the dealership themselves. As she described the manager as "Looked like he was ready to fight". As posted above by Loco, there is one in NJ which is the config she wants and doesn't have the paint protection (she is going to get a...

Yea we both got an "ick" feeling from them. It was a good deal but didn't care for the way we were treated. Looking online, I'm not seeing the config she wants which is: a 3.0 Premium with Driver Assist in Absolute Zero. Hopefully the one today wasn't the last shot. Edit - Found one from the...

Ok so back from Dealer #2. They had a white 3.0 Premium which she was interested in buying. The salesman (kid) first came back saying they usually do $5k over sticker but were able to give it to us for MSRP (which also negated the $1500 cash back offer from Toyota :rolleyes:). No thanks. As...

:lol: We both got a good laugh out of this!

That's great to hear -thanks for the info. We both walked out of the dealer yesterday thinking he was trying to talk us out of buying it. Going to dealer #2 in a few hours so we'll see how that goes but remote buying is a very attractive option.

Everyone seems to love CF. I was with you but now it is starting to grow on me. :) I have to admit, these look WAY better than stock. The stock ones seem like an afterthought - would have been nice if they were glossy black at least.

Curious - do you even have to go to an out of state dealer or can you do the entire transaction remote and have it shipped? The gentleman who bought my E46 M3 was in CA and we did the entire transaction remotely and he had the car picked up and shipped so I would imagine a dealer could do the same?

Despite titles, we are in our 40s (I'm almost out lol) so I don't worry that she is a responsible driver (way more than me lol!). That said, she lived in the city without a car for nearly 20 years - last one was a Ford Ranger so she's used to this kind of power :D j/k. It will be an adjustment...

Within driving distance. Thanks for the info! We'll see how we do locally but may end up buying out of state. The dealer today has 6 in stock (2 premiums) so curious if they will try to pull the same BS.

That's good to hear. She will not drive in the snow unless it is unforecasted but hopefully they can actually move the car if she does. With the exception of this winter, we have been without snow for years. When it does, it is cleared the next day. I'm curious about the breaking loose...
