    I'll probably pass, that's about 40 min from me and I'm kinda busy this weekend anyway. Have fun.

    Just wanted to give a shout-out as a new member of the forums and first-time BMW owner! I gave the details in my general forum intro post, but wanted to introduce myself to the Chicagoland Bimmer community.

    Sorry if it's been beaten to death already, but I was wondering if there was any clear winner or go-to dealership in the Chicagoland area (preferably closer to NW burbs, but west/south is fine too!), especially with regards to tuning. I'd love to look into tuning, but of course, don't want to dig myself deep by voiding the warranty/going to a troublesome dealer, but that's a whole other thread!

    Thanks again and definitely looking forward to future meetups!

    I would recommend VS motorsports for tuning.

    The meet was awesome ! Met a couple of new friends with some NICE cars. Pics coming soon.

    Have you guys ever tried meeting somewhere say within 3mi E/W of 94 between like Willow Rd. & Deerfield Rd.? When I was in Windy City BMW CCA I noticed there were a lot of peeps from that vicinity.

    Don't know how familiar you are with that corridor, I thought it'd be easier to give those co-ordinates than name off towns, but I certainly could name off some towns too.

    I could also bring my DIS/SSS/INPA laptop, no promises on my ability to do sweet magic though. . .am just really starting to play around with it now.

    I would definitely consider it. Not too familiar with that area, but that's what google is for !

    That's the area I live in and yes there are a crap ton of cars local to the Deerfield, Northbrook, Glenview area. That's why I suggested the BWW lot in the Willow Festival complex off of Willow rd and Waukegan rd a few pages back. There is a Starbucks right there too.

    How much do you want for the baby?

    Jk, glws.

    It has taken me wildly varying amounts of time to sell car stuff on CL, but eventually - someone finds you.

    Not sure if this is the right place. I'm from the cities and I found a car I would like to buy in Downers Grove, IL. Since I would have to take the bus there and drive it back, I was wondering if anyone down there could give me a good pre-purchase inspection so I don't run into any surprises. I'm willing to pay a reasonable amount to assure myself I wont have any problems or if there is a tech in the area I would also trust their judgement and am willing to compensate accordingly. Anyone interested?

    PM me asap, I am in desperate need of a vehicle and if done soon enough I would love to pick it up this weekend if everything checks out.
