Some guy in the car show scene. He's good enough to get a free Infiniti M35, customize it and raise awareness of our cars in the tuning community. You want to tune your car Doc???
You know my '06 M35x is more than tuned enuf to get me the periodic speeding ticket 10-20 mph (reduced down by a kindly cop) over the limit way too often. Also my wife Image sits in my machine a lot with me; which really detunes the whole shebang... Image

I want frameless windows on my M... what type of booty shyt is this that Y34s have frameless windows and Y50s dont??? It's like Nissan is regressing, right? This is :bs:

Im thinking a lot of people slept on this Ms (Y34), me included... I love frameless windows, I almost bought a CLS instead of my car, just because of the frameless window, this doesnt make any sense...

Those Y34 Ms are really something...

what do you mean frameless? When you open the door it's just a window, no top part?

It is indeed one of the things I love about my Y34 M's looks! :yesnod

Although, getting in and out of the car can wear down the soft rubber gasket that the door rests on, and this has needed replacement (once) on my car in the almost 8 years that I have owned it - I suspect I will need to do it again soon ... a minor thing though.

I doubt it ... :( We are probably considered a "rich" country ... able to deal with our own disasters.

Do you LIKE wind noise? Just curious. I know I'm in a minority here, but in my mind, glass roofs, frameless windows, and convertibles are all just ways to have more wind noise. I didn't buy a luxury car so I could hear and feel the outside world, I use my A/C. This is why I have OEM wheels too, thogh, 20's may look better, but they don't feel better, and I'm afraid I'd bend them in a heartbeat. No judgement to those who drive with windows down on 22's, though, I'm just saying it's not for me. So, even if replacing the seals more often is a minor sacrifice, what is the wind noise to you?

So this dude knocks on the door today and asks me if he could do a demonstration on a kirby vacumm cleaner, I'm thinking hell yeah free area rug cleaning and I'm def not going to buy that expensive thing, so he walks in and cleans the area rug and then all of a sudden he's like "let me show u the reason most people get kirbies" and he just ups and goes straight to my bedroom without even asking for permission. My wife, who's sitting on the couch, and I, just looked at each other like wtf is this guy doing... I'm thinking he's going to stop at the hallway and clean some baseboards or something but nah, he went to my room... I walked back there, and I'm like "get out of my house man" politely and he looks at me like "what happened"? When I tell him what had "happened" he had the audacity to tell me that he does it on most people's homes and they never complained, can y'all believe that or what?

way back when I was a freshman in highschool i sold tristar vacuums or something like that and they were expensive like kirbys but supposedly better bla bla. ( i was like 16) I used to do inhouse demos and we would use them on the bed to show all the dead skin etc that comes off your mattress (pretty sick stuff) but I would always ask and never once thought to just go to someones room like that, ha ha. It would have been real awkward if you would have still had Antz tied up and ball-gaged, wearing leather chaps while listening to elton john in your room. You would have asked him to leave in about 30 minutes anyways when you told you the price was like $800-1200, so you just saved everyone some time.

^Lol. Dude... $800? Nowadays the want $3,000 for those things. I used to have one I bought for $1200 a couple of years ago and sold it just last year for $300, lol... I just played dumb to get the free demo, lol.

yeah, thinking about it maybe the ones i sold were crazy expensive like that too? All i remember is that i sold about 50 of them, but 48 of them were declined when it came to financing... aka it was a waste of about 2 hours each time and very frustrating when you were certain you just made some bank on commission. Oh to be 16 again

Antz will be crazy pissed when he hears you got a free suck job by some random guy

*Antz: bank = money
free suck job = your normal tuesday evenings

Stephen my lad, I ought to be sending you a bill listening to (OK, reading) about your innermost dreams and desires. Blanco and I are both adults, big boys and we understand your secret longings. I bet you actually drive an old Buick Regal... :facepalm:

"Thank you for inquiry to us directly in Japan.
We are gladly being your assistance from at anytime.
Thank you very we hope to hearing from you soon."

:biggrin:
Not to make light of the Japanese difficulty with the English language at times (esp with recent tragic events) and being Asian myself (dad-Taiwanese and mom-Filipino)--sometimes the stuff posted on www.engrish.com just cracks me up!!

i don't think much is going to be exported out of Japan anytime soon...

2. Avatar was extremely overhyped and about 1 1/2 hours too long--i think the fact that it was also one of the flicks that started the whole 3D bandwagon also contributed to the hype as well--it was just Dances with Wolves in outerspace.

Question if you could pick one which one would it be?

2. 2011 M37S loaded?
3. BMW 2011 335I with M body kit

2011 335i with M body kit... because of the free maintenance (50k miles baby) lol. 2nd would be 2011 M37s but if the beemer didnt have the free maintenance it would've been the Infiniti hands down.

I think I'd go with the E550, but I haven't driven one, so I don't know... I'll be in the minority on this forum, though, and I'm operating under the assumption that the Bimmer and the Infiniti are sporty while the E550 is a bit more luxe. Also, come on Blanco, a Beemer is a motorcycle, sheesh.
