Unwanted Gift.

Knightelf · 05-17-2012, 01:37 AM

No doubt all of you have had unwanted gifts from time to time... The crappy lava lamp from secret santa at work... A set of cheap plates from some distant relative...

Well... this just trumps them all?

Seriously, unwanted gift?

RaihaX · 05-17-2012, 01:39 AM

LOL Wtf!

It's been on ebay already...

He mentioned he bought it for his wife but she didn't want it.

edit: here's the link - http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/BMW-1M-20...item4ab710eb62

Seriously?

I would sell the wife for the blasphemy.

Actually, I'd just keep the car.

Me: "HONEY here's your birthday present!!"
Wife: "Don't like it"
Me: "Oh... too bad!" (drives off excitedly in new 1M guilt free purchase)

haha don't worry about it. I only saw glimpses of a thread, can't remember which one. Someone got banned, came back like 3 thousand times as various incarnations of Rossi. Things got silly. Bottom line you missed nothing.

Many dealers "have" spare allocations, not "had" - people suddenly got cold feet it seems. Totally weak...

I gave up after I tried for a month and fully factory loaded a 135i w/ ppk etc...

dr.bmw · 05-17-2012, 10:42 PM

good time to buy a new car it seems... interest rates are falling again, dealers are motivated to shift cars.. my car's >3 years old... hmmm

RaihaX · 05-17-2012, 10:44 PM

do it!

pavo335 · 05-17-2012, 11:13 PM

according to the AFR you'd be better off getting a fully loaded 135

Define fully loaded

A factory ordered 135i can end up costing on par with the cost of a 1M.

Maybe AFR are comparing to an M3?

RaihaX · 05-18-2012, 01:56 AM

I am so confused? Paul are you talking about Air:Fuel Ratio?

What are you talking about Otaku?

TimMc · 05-18-2012, 02:07 AM

AFR = Australian Financial Review I suspect.

Ok that makes more sense

I was freaking lost there lol.

pavo335 · 05-18-2012, 02:50 AM

Yeh fin rev, not saying I agree but that's what the article says. But it would be an interesting cost analysis, think 335 vs m3???
