Hey everyone..
It's time to move on / upgrade. Since the wife and I are starting our family, I need to be a little more practical for a while, at least until we're firm on our feet. I've already ordered my 2011 4Runner Limited with all of the trimmings, so I wont have as much e38 withdraw as some would.
I love the car very very much, and have babied it since the day I've gotten it. It has been a true dream car, and is definitely worthy of it's "365 cars you must drive before you die" status. All sorts of maintenance items have been done, and I'll continue to keep it up until the day it's gone. It's been an amazing experience, and that's an understatement.
The details:
2000 740i with 144kmi, Orientblau Metallic over Sand Beige. 19" Staggered Style 95's with decent rubber 50%+ on the rear, 80%+ fronts. H&R stageII springs and Umnitza Chromiums, Headlight XPEL on fresh lenses, all new front end components, valley pan performed along with ALL of the gaskets within reach of it, all coolant hoses are new, factory hose clamps and everything (those biotch ones you crimp. I have the tool.), new radiator, new expansion tank, rebuilt ABS/DSC Module from Module Masters with 5 year warranty, new MAF, new BOSCH OEM lambda sensors, new power steering pump, new fuel filter with integral pressure regulator, new vacuum lines, new waterpump, new valve cover gaskets, fresh powder coat on the valve covers, new secondary air pipe and o-rings, new spark plugs, new cupholder, new leather wrap on driver seatback, infinity bass link, complete tool kit with warn triangle, m5 style rear wing, new 750il kidneys, parabolic side mirror glass... MOBIL1 ALWAYS.
The list goes on. The few of you I've met should know the car, and how I maintain it. I will continue to maintain and drive it until it's gone. I'm in no hurry to sell it, and wont mind if it doesn't go for months.
Bottom line, I'm looking at $9500 for it, and have no problem sitting on it for close to that money. Clear title in hand, ready for sale. Some pics to refresh your memory.

Please feel free to PM or post any questions you may have.
To all of my buddies on here, this is not the end of me and this surely DOES NOT MEAN I WONT END UP WITH ANOTHER BMW if/when the e38 is sold! Stay tuned... maybe something with HUD?
