I was about to order about $350 worth of stuff, but shipping was over $200. I changed the order to about $115 taking off a bunch of the larger, heavier items and shipping was $120.

I ended up buying a few small things and then ordered the rest of it from www.getbmwparts.com The items were a little more, but shipping was only $26 so the overall cost was significantly less.

Does anyone know if tax is applicable? I'm showing $1254 for the mtech kit shipped to San Diego, CA ($1069 + $185 estimated shipping) but tax is $0 at this point. I don't want to click submit and see an additional $100+ added on.

Also, where's the CF Mtech splitter? I can't seem to find it....

Thanks!

Sorry to bump but was wondering if anyone has bought anything from the site? I am about to pull the trigger on the mtech kit as a replacement and wanted to see if anyone had any feedback. Thank you for any input.

Based on an exchange rate of 1 GBP = 1.65258 USD:

My local stealership charges £130 per hour - that's ~$214!

We pay through the roofs here in the UK.

A stock F10 550i SE, with standard equipment (less equipment than the chaps over the pond receive as standard) , would be £53,080, or $87,718.
A stock E92 M3, again with standard equipment, would be £54,595, or $90,226.

Also, petrol, (gas), is over £6 a gallon, that's >$9.91! And diesel prices are even more as are the costs of buying diesel cars!
