lol ok.

Are you driving to NH for this one?

oonowindoo

i was just going to say i feel 640 is somewhat "underpowered" ..... by BMW's standard of course. It is a rocket compare to Acura.

you can't be too picky when it comes to used cars.. especially on a non-volume selling model. If the price is right and it has all the "must haves" then DO IT!! V8TT >>>> I6T

neuronbob

Why does that car have an "M" steering wheel? It's not an M6. Does it have an "M" package?

MTEAZY

I see more of these than the 2 door.. looks like a nice luxury leasemobile. I would do everything I could to save up for the M6 GC though.

ttribe

M-Sport package. Changes the front and and rear facias, different steering wheel, little more sporty suspension...that kind of thing.

oonowindoo

i actually saw a 6 series without LED option the other day.. first time ever.

Weird looking without LED headlight... maybe because i had never seen one..

oonowindoo

like CTS V sport vs CTS-V

Chief F1 Fan

the non-M Sport version looks :ghey:

Chief F1 Fan

I don't want or need an M6 GC-I have my 350Z 'vert for summer fun-this is my "practical"car.

oonowindoo

You should just get rid of your 350Z "vert all together and get a M6 Convertible or GC.

i don't know how much fun you will have in the 350z once you get used to the V8TT.

Chief F1 Fan

^^ I've thought about that but I really do love my convertible. Nothing like it on a nice, sunny day when I'm headed to court somewhere with the tunes blasting.

Yumcha

Must be nice having a sunny day and driving with the top down.


It's snowing here.

oonowindoo

if you really love Convertible and driving...S2000>350Z vert.

350Z vert is just too heavy to be tossed around

Get rid of the Z, then get the 6GC and the S2K, you got my dream garage.

oonowindoo

ttribe

Think I'll put the top down on the 3 when I go to lunch today.

No one actually needs an M-Car...

Yumcha

Hey...ttribe...ooyeswindyoo...come closer to the monitor...












Bit more...
























Almost there.





























Just a bit closer.































Okay.

oonowindoo

i was expecting a slap....

#fail

Yumcha

Well, it stopped snowing.

charliemike

I saw a 640i followed by a 535i today and I would rather have the 640i every time.

Yumcha

So would nearly everyone...except for that dude who'd take the RLX.

oonowindoo

we all would.... 640 just cost too much brand new when compared to the 4 door version (535)

I test drove the S2000 and the 350Z back to back and here are my impressions: the S2K felt like a go kart compared to the Z (in a good and bad way). Turn in was quick but I felt every bump on the road, not to mention I'm not a little guy and my 6'2" self only fit one way in the Honda. I could not drive this car more than 100 miles without wanting to drive it off a cliff. Having to have the engine revs way up or no power was an absolute turn off.

oonowindoo

This is the thing. S2000 is one of those cars that you have to own one to know. A test drive really won't do anything at all. I still remember the very first time i drove s2000, my conclusion was about the same as yours. "car feels cool but why is it so slow? and so tiny inside"

In the past 12 years i have had 3 VQs and 2 S2000s. VQs were good but forgettable and i am searching for my 3rd S2000 as we speak.

I switched between VQs and S2000 about 3 times. Power was NEVER an issue in the s2000.

I am 6'1 by the way and i know 350z very well, it is really not much more "comfortable" than a s2000. The ride is about the same, except 350z is a lot quieter inside.

If you got a friend with s2000, maybe you can switch cars with him for a week or 2.

oonowindoo

and i DDed both s2000 for 6 years total with 60 miles commute everyday.

I still think it is uncomfortable, loud, featureless, speakers are useless and , the MPG is not so great, torqueless and many things.

but after a while, you will appreciate the simplicity of the car, it takes about 5 secs to put the top down and just go cruise in a summer night and maybe hit a few corners.

Those <5% of the time will made up for all the craps i had to go through with the s2000.

Chief F1 Fan

I wanted an S2K from the moment I first laid eyes on one (infield, California Speedway, Paul Tracy had his parked next to my brother's trailer). I had 13 Hondas and was (still am) appreciative of the company's motorsports efforts. There is no way in God's green earth I could drive one to Indy with only gas stops (8 hours) like I can the Z.

Agreed - the S2000 is certainly not a road trip car, it barely does the job as a daily for me.

I've driven my AP2 27,000 miles since 1/21/14 and it's been an awesome, yet an uncomfortable journey. My last car was a CLS6 and my god do I miss those seats.

If you love driving, the S2000 handles & behaves so well that you seem to forget about all of the shortcomings. This car eats corners, the brakes are great, and there's really nothing better than VTEC with the top down. Yes, the lack of torque is sometimes frustrating but I've added a few modifications to make the a car more livable (AP1 flywheel, Intake & Exhaust).

240hp in ~3000 pound car isn't exactly slow.

To each his own, but if I were to have it my way I'd only use this as a weekend & track car with something more comfortable for daily duties

350Z Convertible =

oonowindoo

i thought this was going to be a weekend fun car, not a road trip car.

In that case, yes. My max was 3.5 hours from LA to vegas.... That is the most i could take.

Chief F1 Fan

So I have been combing the sites looking for my dream car to no avail. It'll be just about perfect except too many miles; no cold weather package; aluminum trim vs. wood; etc. so I went to the dealer and was told they have a new 2014 650i xDrive, white/black and loaded with just about every option BMW has. Original MSRP was $91K and they want to sell it for $82K. It's been sitting at the dealer for a year so I was going to offer them $80K and see what happens. I'm getting close to making a final decision within a day or so, I'll keep you boyz posted.

P.S. If you do score the car, you're still e-dead to me because you want a smartwatch.

Chief F1 Fan

oonowindoo

Nice.

but just another $2k off? even though that is a reasonable offer but it does not hurt to ask for a little bit more

oonowindoo

shit i think the Asian in me is showing....

1StGenCL

Get it....for $75k

This. It's been sitting on their lot for at least a year. They'll be trying to clear the 15s off their lot in the coming months, let alone the 14s. You have a lot of leverage for more negotiating. They should want the thing sold.

You're right, esp since the second most wanted package is not on the car after I thought it was. (cold weather package)
