They do have some sub-$100 ones (for the pair) that I thought about getting on AliExpress. Quality seems decent from the reviews, and could always rewrap if necessary. At least that's what I tell myself...

Thought about trading it for a station wagon I drove on Saturday that was life changing paradigm shifting good. Only issue is I'd need to trade the 2er and come up with $100k.

Thought about how fun this car is even in the rain. Then thought I'd better settle down since I am getting close to the wear bars on the tires. That led into whether I want to go with the Michelin PSS or switch over to Continentals for a little bit of savings.

I do occasionally think about getting the new Rolls Royce SUV, but it would not be as much fun to drive as my 2'er.

Ha! Yeah. I had a Turbo S e-Hybrid loaner for a full day when I had my Carrera S and it was being serviced. Good stuff. I like the new Sport Turismo wagon styling better, personally. That new Mission E off-road wagon thingy looks unreal too.

There's always the Volvo V90 if you are on a budget. LOL

To M5 or not to M5 and when? Do I want to pay the taxes on the 228 when I M5 or should I trade in and maybe get an M6GC? Who knows? The window tint is nice now though.

Personally I like the M5 more than the M6GC, if you're letting rando's from the internet influence your decision!

There are quite a few local guys that have both near me. One of which is over 700hp. Ha ha I may end up going for some rides with them to see if I wanna join the group.

Ha. If it makes you feel any better I've been completely ruined by something that's more expensive. Panamera Turismo mmmmmmmmmm.

One car to rule them all haha.

I'm an unapologetic wagon junkie. If there was a relatively recent M5 wagon I'd already own one even if it meant sleeping in it.

Agreed. My beater car is a 1995 Honda Accord wagon. I miss the E30 wagons, RS6 Avant's, E60M5 wagons in Germany.
