You should be able to get that fixed.

NasserOttawa · 03-01-2009, 10:38 AM

I will go tomorrow to nearby garage, thanks for the advice..

NasserOttawa · 03-03-2009, 05:06 AM

I went to Alloy wheels in Ottawa and had it fixed for $94 tax included, it now performs as if no damage had happened.

a 520i could not attain a speed of 360.

bmwhipper · 04-14-2009, 08:16 AM

No not 360km? ha ha?

360 degree turns as i was traveling at about 140 km (90mph)

E34lyfestyle · 04-17-2009, 03:06 PM

yeah dude thats pretty intense, I would like to come up on a nice euro E34 M5 is what I am lookin for ritenow and ship it to california I can care less about the fees but once I find one Ill be in trouble the minute I fire it up!!!

bmwhipper · 04-19-2009, 03:56 PM

I also would like to send a BMW over From GERM-TOWN. It does not cost much to get it to B-More but the spec change would cost a grip.
I go back every year and its pretty tempting. I think there might be a loop hole with classics over 20. I am not sure.
