Everytime I visit Car Talk, I look for a Shoof update. Figured you were busy.

^Yep, it's the new 428xi....
I drove this car down to FL at the end of September...Door to door delivery, baby! This is the 3rd car I got him so far. The miles don't matter to him, and he never goes over the miles anyway. Did the 1,275 mile run non-stop (only for gas and piss breaks) in 17 hours and 8 minutes, from Brooklyn, NY, to Miami, FL (exit 21 off I-95). The first pic was one of the piss breaks, and the second pic was just before delivering it, I like taking it to this place to hand wash the car, they are very thorough, and do great work. Nothing but the best for my customers! The name of the place is called Aventura's Finest Hand Wash, they are all over south Miami. I took back his lease return (also an X5, that I delivered him 3 years ago), and was planning to drive it back, but last second changed my mind, dropped it off to a dealer in FL, and flew back home.

Sadly, this car was totaled during Hurricane Sandy:

I don't know if there are any MMA fighting fans here, but the guy that owns this owns the clothing line, Future Legend (www.futurelegend.biz) - He's big in this...

Customer wanted a wheel color change to white, though...

This car sounds awesome! It's a shame that although more powerful, isn't powerful enough for my tastes!

Awesome update!!
How picky?![Big Grin](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)
I see you stopped at South of the Border...I'm sorry. Going from NY to FL, I can see needing to stop and anywhere will do. But, the ones that go there that aren't making a trip like that I'll never understand.
