Do it...

I just got this BCM 14.5 middy upper with Battlecomp 1.5 on it.

With the FA BCM BCG, and an H buffer this rifle is SOFT shooting, and crisp! [smile]

Put over 1200 rounds through it this week at an Adv Patrol Rifle Class; Zero malfunctions = Winning.

New Toy

Just picked this up, 2011 BMW 335i xDrive with sport package, premium package, cold weather package, navigation, iPod, satellite radio, 18" rims. The turbo in this thing is amazing. Now I am poor forever...

Not for 4 years or 50,000 miles he won't :)

BMW is f-ing awesome with their warranties. I've had them for years and if you take them to the dealership just before they are out of warranty they will find any little thing wrong with the car and fix it. Now repairs out of warranty are another thing entirely.

Just be glad it's not a V8 .... those things blow radiators like pornstars [smile]
 
Haha. I don't have to FIX ANYTHING. They have full service and maintenance, duuuuuuuuuuuh. I don't even have to get windshield wiper fluid or windshield wipers.
 
Great car! Don't worry about what others say regarding paying to fix it! My 2006 330i is at 98k miles and I have put a total of 2k into it for repairs, which is pretty damned good (this includes things I broke myself, not just things that broke on their own). The 2011 335s have the oil cooler, correct? I remember it being a problem with the first runs of 335s that the engine got hotter than its no turbo'd counterparts. At one point I believe they started coming with a separate oil cooler in them, but wonder if they still do. If not, it is worth putting in if you plan to flog that car :)
 
Nice 3 dvajda!
BMW has a silly warranty.
I had a slight knock, and I do mean slight. They had to hook it up to run a microphone around it to hear and locate it, but after a week in the shop and about 5% of the time, they could pick up the knock I could hear, they went ahead and swapped out my rear diff. I am almost certain had it been any other manufacturer, I would have drove the car back as soon as I brought it in for diag.

Another time I hit a pothole and spun the front sway bar around ripping up all sorts of fluid lines, tearing up wheel well liner, scratching up my wheels, and causing all other sorts of damage.
I didn't pay a cent. Thank you Germany.

The one thing I miss about Lexus is the comp car washes. Those were nice when I got a bit too lazy for a few weeks.
Combine free hand washes with BMW warranty and it's car heaven.

I think BMW Sudbury and a bunch of other dealerships do the complimentary car wash if you bring the car by and ask for it. But they will look at you strange. They definitely wash the car if you come in for any service.

Nice ride, but President Obama wanted you to buy a hybrid.
 
MAN, I've been waiting a long time to post a gun on this thread. Finally, my first gun purchase ever ... brand new Ruger SR9c. (Sorry for crappy cellphone pic!) I'm sure y'all have seen one before, but you've never seen mine!

jbos6, congrats on a nice looking Ruger. You'll enjoy that gun for a life time! Good luck.
 
Well technically I got the rail, stock, scope, and mag today and i've only had the rifle for two weeks so here you go:)

The entire first of the new Acquisitions (in GUN GALLERY) page is ONE firearm, ONE car, and everything else is car talk into page 2... [thinking]

OK OK, I'm sorry, but it is called "New Acquisitions" so I figured car was fair game. But, to make up for that, I picked this HK P7 up on Tuesday (german gun to go with german car?):
