well my car is still under the 50k miles so I get them free with the warranty, but you should call them up and talk to Mike in service. He'll get a price for you!

I definitely hear ya, it is horrible this year. With all the cities struggling with budgets, I fear this summer is going to suck pothole wise. It was nerve racking enough this winter with my winter 17" setup on, putting the 18"'s back on has me even more paranoid.

Newb here - Grosse Pointe area, but I work in Troy, so you may see me on 75/696/94. This is my 1st bimmer - CPO 07 e93 AT, Sport, Montego blue w/Saddle. I spent some time on here researching the issues and potential mods for my car before buying. This is a great site, and I'm happy to be part of the community now.

Also, I've been on xceed for a couple years (used to work with Brad), so I may stop by the Livonia meet on Saturday. If not, I'm sure there will be others.

I've been seeing a lot of 335's around RO and Birmingham lately. Was anyone in RO at Lockharts BBQ yesterday? Looked like an AE exhaust on it?

Not sure if i'll make the livonia meet on saturday, but i'll give it a shot.

Anyone here go to Bakers on sundays?

Saw a grey 335 with what looked like a euro plate on the front crusing down Woodward this early evening.

I have done the dealer detail with the coupon, all-in-all I felt that the dealership detail was worth the money with the discount, as the normal price was something like $450. They had the car over night and I had a loner, came back looking like new. This was at the Okemos BMW dealership though, last summer... I didn't see this offer from them this spring.

Recently had my 08 done by Mike in Royal Oak. He has a great shop, they do really good work and if you look at the Google reviews everyone seems to love him. Overall very satisfied, they even dyed the stitching on my side bolsters because it was a little faded and not a deep black like the rest of the seats.
