damn, i guess we have it good here in the US with car prices.

if you imported the car yourself, how much money could you save?
It depends, car prices in UK are getting lower every month, but by the time I would fly over, look for a car, stay somewhere, get the car checked, arrange to have it shipped etc, maybe could of saved upto 4000 if I found a really good deal.
But they save the hassle for you, and I already know people here who can check the car, and I looked around for a few weeks before i chose this one anyway.

Hey sick, Dont you got the Umnitza M5 front bumper? If so i've been trying to get EuroRev to make Hartge splitter for it cause the real OEM M5 Hartge splitter dont fit for our Umnitza M5 front bumper.

It was so close it was almost touching!
They have little ramps made but the angle of the ramps is still quite steep.



Nice Idea!
