I am planning on getting a beater to get me around but at least a BMW. I've always loved the 7 and dont mind driving one at all. U think my stock 124s will fit it?

They should. Which 7? E38?

John@Motorcepts 10-01-2009 07:49 AM
yup...e38. love that look.

Oh c'mon John, you know damn well if you get another BMW you WILL mod it and then you'll have to find ANOTHER beater :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: You are like the rest of us, can't leave well enough alone :P :D

i need a beater too. I was thinking about Stick shift old 325 coupe.

the 7 looks nice and has a comfy ride. also a good idea. as long as it drivable).. the scariest thing is transmission going down or smthg like that

Were manual trannies available for the E38?

John, you have impeccable taste. :twoup:

The BMW 740i Sport with M Parallel wheels was, IMHO, the best looking 7 Series that has ever been made.

No matter how much you protest, I agree that once you get it, you'll be modding the crap out of it. :lol:

My thoughts exactly, and then it's 2 BMW's eating you out of house and home, while you look for yet another "Beater"!! :lol:
