Hi AC,

No i haven't picked up the car yet as I am still in NY. My wife wants to pick up the car with me. (The sales rep say we are one of the few exceptions that don't want to pick up the car immediately).


Regarding replica wheel, like you guys I personally wouldn't buy them. Again just my 0.2.

Dave, hope you can get yours soon. Cheers



Dave,

Forget to mention that I think 124 is a good alternative.

Yeah I've heard those stories about those fake AC rims bending easily too and I am in Toronto, so not just limited to Vancouver. Not only is the car worth 500K but the fact is that BMW is about handling and I don't want to ruin any part of that, now for a MB is a different story

Hey GF366

Saw your car today and it looks real sharp, I spotted it from far away

Hi bun

You are back from your vacation or still haven't gone yet.

Ray

Did you pick up your car yet?

David

I think 6000 for each wheel is a very good price for that set of rim, but you are right it is very expensive having said all that, also quote the non M wheels like 123 or 124. I think 124 is also a good alternative if you are not concern about jumping off at the red lights, I have seen one set so far in HK and is on a 530i.
Hey gusy, Im still here, leaving on Thurs for Las Vegas Im curious, so everyone who bought chrome grills have them installed?

hello folks,

I've called "Kwok Wah" tire shop tonight and asked for some quotation, do u guys think the price are reasonable??

1.) 2nd hand Style 122 Set
$12000
2.) New Style 123 (wheel only)
$20000
3.) New Style 124 (wheel only, 245 front and rear)
$21000

I do think the 122 set is a bit over price.... not sure



Hi bunbun,

I haven't install my grill yet.... still have no idea on how to pull out the old one without remove other things.....

Have a nice trip~
