Pro Tip. Get the COBB and M3 lower control arms. That is all you need.

Some Rams with non run flats would be good also. I am a fan of 335i's. My wife loves hers.

Yup. We went with 18's on my wifes car but its a sedan. On coupes 18's look a bit small.

My friends car with Alufelgen SF-71. 19's (He's in the MD area also)

The CSL reps look awesome on e36's in 18's. Friend has them on a e36 sedan in Philly, I don't hate them.

Nice purchase bro, but $35k? That seems excessively high.

BMW will more than likely be my next car. The interior is just so perfect.

I agree with the other guys, try to avoid black wheels on a black car. Maybe grab some better looking OEM wheels from a 5-7 series or M wheels.

I'd leave it alone as far as upgrades. Why take the chance of ------- up another car. Drive it, enjoy it and make it last. :bigtu:

EDIT: Here's a few wheel choices I'd consider.

Faeflora 06-24-2012 11:09 AM

Those are the exact wheels i posted.

Y8s was right. We are alike. Except i am the smart version of you.

Regarding price

Once upon a time My ex GF who made 40k bought herself a brand new Chevy Trailblazer for $35,000. She got a loan and paid it all off. If she could fukkin afford that damn car I sure as fuks can afford this. I drive for a living. I am a professional driver and get paid 55c a mile. I dont want to have to keep shelling out $ for broke ass daily cars of fail. Honestly i could have bought a brand new porsche turbo and not missed the $ but for me the value was not there. The interior of this car is indeed quite nice.

Here is planned mod list:

Some little visual flourish bs
Rimz sorry i mean DUBS
lowering springs
Sways
M3 LCAs
Shuft knobbie
Cobb AP
Maybe some gayass intake for sounds

Im gonna pay a shop to do the springs sways and lcas. I do not want to molest the stuff onto the car in my customary fashion.

Can not get these wheels. They are on neighbors car.

Scrappy Jack 06-25-2012 09:41 AM

Congrats on the purchase, Min. This is relevant to my interest as my 3-series coupe should be here at the end of this week. TireRack.com has some less expensive options that you can check out on their "test fit" application.

I'm curious if you can get a reasonably sized non-staggered setup on the coupes.

18psi 06-25-2012 09:43 AM

Why do you care if your neighbor has one? Are you one of those "I mutht be unique guythhhh"???

Those wheels actually look good (surprisingly) and since you obviously like em, get em.
Who cares what others have.


PS: my coworker has those on his 335 coupe as well and I admire them in the parking lot every day.

I realllly don't want to do a staggered setup. But it sounds like 19x9s would rub in the front. And I think it would be stupid if my miata runs more tire than this car which weighs twice as much. Like all my cars I am going to drive the shiz out of it, but I want to flush this car too. Sigh

Since the BMW fell through, the obvious second choice is an AMC Pacer. Perhaps you can find one with a title.

Also, your story would have been a lot cooler had you changed what actually happened. You should have told everyone you bought a car and paid cash cause you're a super baller, but in reality just stolen the car and paid NOTHING!!!!!!

ohhh ho ho LOL wow I love myself.

The seller was not able to get his title from his bank. Should have gotten it today but bank said fail and had to wait two weeks. I asked for my money back and got.

So.

New IS-F?

I drove one today

gawdam it is nice inside

the SSGAMAFMAWE gearbox 8 speed thingy is nifty.

I like the warranty.

I found one that is black with red interior. Lets see here are the pics

https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1340934729

https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1340934729

The interior is sex

The suspension on the car is absolutely fantastic. Superb. Very very easily to control.

The motor.... I really have a thing for forced induction. Quite a decent amount of power in the motor, but kinda a boring powercurve. The little flapper intake thing is actually quite cool. I bet the car would sound megahellbeast with headers and a real exhaust.

I negotiated 60K out the door from the dealer.

Should I buy?

18psi 06-28-2012 10:03 PM

Make sure the dealership doesn't lose the title too

Joe Perez 06-28-2012 10:06 PM

$10 says he buys it, then finds out that it has a salvage title and was originally a diesel.

GT-R plus Faelflora isn't a good combination. The first time you sit in that car, you'll put it in fael-mode and blow the tranny.

y8s 06-29-2012 08:40 AM

yes buy the IS-F and don't violate it until the warranty is up.

Faeflora 06-29-2012 09:45 AM

Scrappy the white plus saddle brown looks fantastic. That would have been my ideal bimmer.

I agree that gt-r is bad idea. I really really really should only
Have ONE car that i modify. Trippe88 I actually have another bone stock NB. "lsutbucket" per my signature.

The lexus is not perfect- the eight gears and automatic box are wierd. But. Nobody has blown one up yet. And auto will be nice again in all the traffic
I have to occasionallu drive in. Lexus is also not faster than god. But it should last quite a while without sadness and breakage. And yea out of the box it does handle better than any of my current cars (my stock NB needs ASTs badly).

$60k is a lot of cash but... I already have everything else
I want for the most part. It will slow doewn my
House upgrades for a few months but that is ok.

y8s 06-29-2012 09:52 AM

"cash"?

dude, you can probably finance 1.9% for five years with almost nothing down. If you pay cash instead of taking that deal (ie ~free loan) you're a RUHtard.

I would prefer to finance about 20K of it so I can spiff up my house now instead of in a few months.

Please tell me where I can get 1.9%

I only have 710 credit score. It was 750 but 6 years ago I had a verizon bill I forgot about that hit collections.

Dealer offered me 4% rate but blah.

Saw the LFA at the dealership. I guess it kinda does look like the FR-S. Except FR-S does not have stupid orange relfectors on the FRONT of the bumper.

BTW the LFA is big. Almost GT-R big.

I did many a time. Failed.

I protested with each credit agency multiple times.

Failed.

Blah

I think that I will pay off most of the loan in a few months but leave a couple hundred in the loan. Let it sit there, and make minimum payments for a few years. That will hopefully establish the third line of credit i need to improve my score. Mortgage. Credit Card. Now car.

Just sayin'.

The interior is actually the "Fox Red Novillo." I can't tell how anatomically correct your description of the IS-F's color combination is... What color interior did you go with?

As for financing, it's probably too late at this point but I would look in to a local credit union. I ended up under 4% for 72 months.

I got a black exterior. I kinda wanted to go white but the black with red looks really really sharp.

Car was had for $64,000 with $4000 of tax included
Paid $48,000 cash
Financed $16,000 through lexus at 2.9%
Going to pay off $15,500 and let the loan sit with minimum payments for the 60 month term.

This. Even if you were dead-set on buying new.

To be honest, I'd rather spend $49,900 on a new base-model Tesla S and then shove the rest of the money up my own aѕshole completely in coin than spend $65k on a Toyota sedan with a hemorrhoid-colored interior.

On the plus side, he'll have another opportunity to not buy a new car after this one "falls though."
