My Bimmer with new wheels for the warm weather.

Very nice Chip! Lovin the 215's. Did you give your arm and your leg to get your hands on the OEM's or are they reps?

Finally pulled the trigger on a GT3, nice!!! This has been planned for you for some time, no? I thought I read on Bimmerpost a while back that you canceled your order on one about a year ago...

Enjoying the X6? Gorgeously unique IMO. I have heard nothing but good about the car. Any problems yet?

+1 about the truck being an SAV.. dont lower it. The way it sits, it still beats a 911 around a track/straight lines, whats the need?

Have to agree with Clarkson, I just don't see the point.

Thanks. I love the X6M. I get mixed reactions to it though. Some people think it's ugly. I wish it pushed closer to 600 bhp . It's pretty heavy. I can get consistent 4.2s to 60 but it starts slowing down after that (10.5ish to 100, 12.7ish@110 quarter).
The wheels are OEMs I bought them from Motorwerks.
I killed the GT3 last year because I couldn't rationalize (though I was trying really hard) having the GTR as my only viable winter vehicle. So I bought the X6M instead.
I reordered the Porsche a couple of weeks ago for February delivery. Now I have to start thinking about selling the Nissan.

Ouchhhhhhhhh, 5 grand later haha.. Have you tried BMW Minnetonka yet? I just switched over from Motorwerks, far better dealership in my opinion. Motorwerks is corporately owned and I feel as though you are not as respected as much by the SA's there... Perhaps it was just my SA or my age..

Minnetonka is owned by the Pohlads privately. The on staff crew there seems to be a little bit more personable. I saw eye to eye with everyone over at Minnetonka a little bit better. You should certainly check it out!

Hahaha, you should like a true car enthusiast..

Yeah, the x6 is a controversial car regardless what you or I think, been that way since its conception.

Looking forward to pics of the GT3 Chip!

Thanks for the advice. Motorwerks is cold. I think Penske owns it. I have bought several cars from them and they couldn't care less. I take it Sears doesn't do BMW anymore?
You should go over to Valley Import. They have a new 997GT3 RS on the floor. Nice $168K car.

Yup. Cooporate , couldnt hate it more. Cold indeed, they dont value business at all from what I have seen as well.

Yeah, the family actually bought Sears back in 07. They decided to split the two brands (BMW and Benz) there after... Sears now only does Benz and Minnetonka is the new home to BMW. The new dealership is huge. Actually bigger than Motorworks. Not to mention they actually know how to interact with customers..

Haha, Ill have to go drool at it...

Love the GT3 RS's, I'll definitely have to stop by and check it out tomorrow. What color do they have in (hopefully green)?

X6M is looking great by the way! Got to see it once a while back and it looks very aggressive for an suv.

I know of someone local who may be interested in purchasing a GTR. Have you thought about a price or timeframe of when you'd like to move it? Or is this just something you plan on doing somewhere down the line? (a PM would be great if you don't want to post here)

I'd sell it whenever. I haven't researched pricing. It's a 2009 with 16000 miles. I'm going to bring it down to Maplewood Nissan for a service soon and probably have new tires put on it.
