I think it was an excellent move to come to a 5-series website to ask what the value is for a newer 7-series car. That was just genius right there. We all know the 5-series people are a bunch of old codger purists who ain't got the scratch and try to hide it with a failure to appreciate a fine whip such as yours.
That aside, that is one gorgeous car. If I could fit another one in the garage, I'd throw you an offer. Bronzit is one of my favorite colors and I really love that front bumper. In fact, it might be cool to leave it that color and paint the lower portions of the car to match. I have never seen tail lamps like that and I think it's just what those cars need. Too many colors otherwise, plus they go great with those headlights! Sweet. I'd also wrap the hood in carbon fiber. Your upgrades have really helped the value. Love the Lowenhart wheels, too. Bummer they're reps, but that's super cool. The sub must just be crayayzay.
Even though I can't pick it up, you have given me some badass ideas for my 7.
Ignore the idiots. Kahl is an asshole and has really poor taste. You just keep on keepin' on and enjoy that bitchin' ride. They may be hatin while you be rollin', but remember that you be lucky I ain't got the money or the space.
Can you post up some other photos of the car? Interior and a side shot? I'd love to see how those wheels finish it off. I can visualize it, but nothing's better than the real deal.
