bought snow tires (anyone need a set of mint 16" Mustang fitment steel wheels with no tires? I have no use for them)

170k miles, 4.4L V8...28mpg on the highway black on black, power rear sunshade, heated seats and steering wheel, headlight washers

 

needed o2 sensor, cam sensor, power headrests on both sides cables are broken WITH the driver side stuck up.

 

it'll be getting maintenance and some other random stuff soon

28mpg on the hwy?

 

Nice car but it's getting to where it's going to need a bunch of stuff with those miles. I hope the previous owner did a LOT of that for you...

It's not my 1st rodeo on bimmers, my other car is an E36 M3....you'd be surprised just how cheap maintenance parts are actually...rad is ~160 (OEM supplier: Behr), cabin filter is ~22, fuel filter is ~17

I know all about it, my brother is on his fourth 7-series... ;)

 

I like the V12 more but for DD and maintenance the E38 M62 is fine. Unless you are straight HWY, your MPG results may vary...

Looks like it may need new weather stripping somewhere. Those windows are foggy.

actually they're all in nice shape...it was just a cold morning...it does need one at the base of the passenger front door....it was ordered last friday...I can't leave anything alone

yup, the M62B44tu is a nice and smooth motor......it just swallows up the highway and cruises effortlessly

 

 

oh yea: new ignition switch installed....now my seats don't move by themselves when I blast the music
