I went today and put a deposit down on a 2009 750i sport package. I will pick it up this week. I want to thank David (DB750) for going to look at the car for me as it was located in Lexington, KY. David was great! He went out on like a 25 degree day and went over the car with a fine tooth comb and even took pictures for me documenting scratches and anything he saw of concern. He then drove the car for me. AMAZING! He called me after his test drive and told me the good news about the car. I can't say enough how much I appreciate what he did. There are lots of great people on this forum but just wanted to say that David is one of the best! I think I got a great deal. The car has a market value of about $51K. I picked it up for $44K and it only has 16K miles on it. They gave me what I could expect for Private Party sales plus a little on my 2004 745i which ended up being like $13,250. So I got into the new body style with low mileage and full warranty for about $31K. I am very excited and again thank David.
Based on the above, I have many things to sell. Many are still brand new and in the box. Let me know if you are interested and feel free to share.:thumbup:

Thanks brotha! Let be honest though; who wouldn't want to go check out a new F01?
I'll put the truth out there. Bill never actually asked me to test drive the car, but of course I wanted to be thorough and make sure it could pull hard all the way past 100.:angel:
(all high speed runs took place in Mexico on a deserted road)
I paid $159.00 for the Dashsoft and waited a month to receive it from China. Mine is the BMW Hit +2.01 scanner from xcar360.com. I will sell it for $100.00 with free shipping.

I genuinely appreciate you taking the time to acknowledge me publicly. I have enjoyed the PM's, texts, and phone calls we have shared over the last week or so. Every time that we have communicated you have expressed your appreciation. Many people nowadays forget the importance of a simple thank you. You are a true CLASS ACT, and I can't tell you how happy I am for you. This car couldn't have asked for a better owner.
Gentlemen,
I would like to share a few words about Bill's new car, but of course I will leave all the details for him to share when he gets it home. This is one of the lowest milage 09's on the market. It is literally brand new. The interior is immaculate. The outside has a few blemishes, but nothing that $100 in PDR and a nice detail won't completly take care of.
I could go on about this car, but I will leave it at this. When I came home after driving it I told my wife that if he didn't buy it that I might! I thought it would be years until I was back in a 7, but I am so impressed with this one that I wil be seriously considering it to replace my M6 within the next 4-6 months.
Congratulations, Bill. I look forward to seeing more pictures of your beast as well as hearing your thoughts after putting a few miles on her.
The wheels are staggered Chrome Style 128's. 9x21 and 10x21. They are perfect with zero curb rash or scratches. I even keep the barrels polished and the back side of the wheels.
The tires are Falken FK-452's. The fronts are 255/30/ZR21 and have 60% tread left on them. The rears are 295/25/ZR21 and one tire is 60% tread while the other is only about 3 weeks old and 95% tread. The wheels are freshly balanced and wrapped up for the winter.
I am asking $1500 Firm for the wheels + actual cost for shipping to your zip code.
I will sell the wheels, brand new 15mm and 20mm spacers including bolts, brand new H&R sport springs, and wheel locks for $2000 local pickup only. I live in Louisville, KY. PM me if you are interested. Check out member Gulfview massive for a picture of the 128's with spacers and lowered. It is one of the best setups I have seen. Thanks.
@wjjklj and Db750, Congrats gents on the purchase. Don't forget to take quite a few pics of the new 7 as we are looking forward to her homecoming. Db750 that was a real stand up act and it is appreciated by all.:thumbup::bigpimp:
Thanks everyone. I am super excited! Now I need to start looking for some wheels since the 128's won't fit the F01. If anyone talks to Big Marcus, tell him I need the hook up on the Vossen CV1's.
Picked up my car yesterday. The dealer said he had several calls after I put down my deposit of others wanting to buy it at a higher price. Glad he kept it for me. My trade-in is already pending a sale after only 1 day. Here are some pictures of the car while I was at the car wash yesterday. My boys were out of school here yesterday due to snow so they both went with me and we took along one of their friends who really likes cars. It was a great day out with the boys. I love the car. It is so much quicker than my 745. The wheels have some curbing that I need to fix but other than that, the car is mint.
Thanks Suri. I may put some Vossen CV1's on it. Also thinking of ditching the runflats for some Continental DWS's. I also saw the Dinan tune which takes it to around 500hp. Probably will just keep it stock for now though as it is too cold here to do anything.
What a beautiful car. Those rims are my favorite rims of all that I've seen, OEM or aftermarket, on an "i". Would seriously consider an "i" for my next car.
You know I will miss my 128's but these are style 252's and growing on me with the two tone color scheme. Everyone has different taste, which is fine but I have always liked the "i" version better. I has a sportier appearance I think. Thanks.
I absolutely love this car. Believe it or not I was sad to trade the 745 in but happy to get the newer car. My 100 mile drive home made me pretty much lose my sadness. This car is so much faster and tighter. The ability to switch suspension firmness and transmission set points is amazing and really changes the car. The comfort setting makes the car incredibly soft over bumps...reminds me of my Dads Lincoln Town car floating down the highway but much better looking. The sport and sport plus modes transform the car into a super well handling and quick vehicle.
David (Db750) said he thought it felt quicker than his M6. On my way back home from picking it up I was stopping at Dairy Queen to get my kids a drink. I was sitting at a red light and I switched the Sport Plus mode on. When the red light turned green I hit the accelerator maybe halfway down and the rearend of the car broke loose and fishtailed sideways. I was very shocked and my boys were cheering. It definitely has plenty of power.
Tons of electronic gadgets like a 12 GB hard drive to download music to. All of the settings are turned off and on through the idrive like triple flash turn signals and what information you want to show on the instrument panel.
If your on the fence, go drive one and you will be hooked.
My only complaint would be that I liked the cup holders on my 745 better.
