hey all, im currently looking at a 95 m3 with 55,000 miles. it has a K&N filter with a dinan carbon fiber intake, a carbon fiber hood from VS racing sport, 3pc SSR rims, full exhaust, H&R springs and struts, Dinan strut bar, different brakes(not sure what they really are she ddnt specify), Dinan carbon fiber head covers,carbon fiber interior, sunroof, as for audio she has an integrated DVD alpine deck, coaxial components, 2 10" JL audio subs in a hidden box mounted to the top of the trunk. Now my problem is how much would something like this cost?

Replying to: roadburner (Oct 05, 2008 2:50 pm) not one proved to be a problem re; warped or hot spotted rotors. That's not to say it couldnt or wouldnt happen - it just never happened to me in 5-6 cars over the last 10-12 years. Now, I NEVER have taken my cars to the track nor drive them in an exceedlingly aggressive way;.(unless the're true race cars -ie my 98 carrera..) The few times i've had brake service on them there was no issue of rotor defect - only the pads to be replaced. I believe the dust shields could .indeed, cause problems if hard braking (racing/motocross) were common. Or, in VERY hot environments... But in New Jersey driving moderate conditions - ill take my chances. Docgary

Replying to: prophecy210 (Oct 08, 2008 8:09 pm) BTW, some of those upgrades don't necessarily decrease the value of the car - but they don't increase the value either. The Dinan parts and suspension are likely OK, but all the cosmetic do-dads will scare away a BMW enthusiast because the quality is questionable and it brings images of an immature owner with a high likelihood that the car has been abused and not properly maintained.
