    E38
    I finally got my car back after over two months of waiting for the 6 Speed swap, and all I can say is... WOW.

    Pics coming soon of course New rear bumper is in order too either this week or next week depending on scheduling.

    Went for a long stroll this weekend, up the coast to air the Sled out, she's much happier at 85 than 55...

    Got into a bidding war for a used set of e60 Dinan mufflers. The bid ended at 7:30 tonight - I was at 440.00 with 15 sec to go and high bidder. At 5 sec a bid came in at 661.00 to take the bid. Pi$$ed me off...

    Funny thing is Max said they were worth around 500.00. The bidding was around 150.to 200.00 all week With 1 min to go it was still at 260.00 at 15 sec I bid my last at 440.00 - then with 5 sec it jumped to the 661,00 number. That was a big jump...

    Max was estimating what the used Dinan set from eBay were worth - he was the one that found them and passed the lead to me. When I entered the bidding it stayed at 125.00 for about 5 days before it went up another dollar. When I spoke to Max later and said I was hopeful at the progress and that I would stay in to at least 250.00, that was Saturday - he mentioned that these were worth at least 500.00. Being SS and not really banged up just dirty with road film and debris coating them. I agreed and hope they would not climb that high but I was wrong.

    Everything else is stock only the mufflers were added and he cut the battery box to add the true duals like the M5 and M6 has. It sounds way better in person. Dont hate Mr. DINAN mufflers. Yours sounds about the same if not exactly the same in your youtube video... Not sure an N62 or M62 will ever sound like a Honda civic...

    Here is your video LOL
