I finally have something to detail again!
Now post a pic of the 240 and Jeep! :P
Hmmm... If you want me to .. I'm gonna go crazy.
Here's the jeep. It still looks like this, it just has a bad knock .. gotta rip the head off of it and try to figure out the problem. I paid $600 for this :D

and here's the 240 right after I put a $2000 set of coilovers on it.. I had a ton of money into the suspension on this car. This was a $500 car.. nothing like spending 4x the price of the car for just one part of the suspension.

And 3 weeks later, I was hit by a drunk driver on I-75. I didn't even get to go to Gingerman Raceway or an autocross or anything :( The suspension was just getting to where I wanted too.. it was beautiful!!

After the 240 I bought this.. I put a few bucks into it and got bored. I had big plans for it but the 92hp just couldn't keep me entertained long enough to get the motor I had in my garage built. I ended up selling all my parts and the car and then wishing I hadn't :D

Oh and don't forget this.. I had this Talon for almost 4 years.. it spent over a year on jackstands with the trans ripped out of it since I was short on cash and replacement FWD tran's for turbo cars are hard to find and expensive when you do. In the background is my roommate's old T-bird that he had for like 3 months.. he dumped a couple thousand dollars into it, went to the track and ran a 15.6 1/4 mile.. it went up for sale the next day :D :D :D

And the best one of all.. 260,000 miles when I sold it. I owned this twice.. the story on how many people I know have owned this is pretty funny. This thing just wouldn't die.. it ate a quart of oil every 300 miles but it got me and 3 buddies to chicago for Hot Import Nights in 2001. On the ride back I dreamed up the concept of XceedSpeed and came home and created XceedSpeed (http://www.xceedspeed.com) and it's still going today.

Well I'm glad someone is getting rich :lol: . Nice looking BLACK BMW. Although the flat black was kind of nice looking, and probably really easy to keep clean. I didn't see a Danase detailing sticker on it????
Congrats on the BMW is looks nice

Yeah, the BMW will look 100 times better when Brad comes over and parks it in my drive than the Nissan or Jeep did! :lol: Plus I doubt the BMW will leave mystery stains on the drive as well. :wink:
