Indeed. I can't tell you how lucky I am. Quan and his wife put less than 7k miles on this thing since we sold it to them inn '17-'18. Just prior to selling it to them, we'd put almost $10k into the X, getting it "right". What I have is a time capsule that needs nothing because it was all fixed already. All I need to do is enjoy and toss some water and oil at the old girl now and then and she should be good till chain guide time, some 60k miles later.

The scarcity of the 4.6 makes me honored to have 2. Just as honored to know good bimmer people
