Thanks everyone! So welcoming... :-)

Foomph... I did it. Well, it's a long story involving a really cramped car garage and a friend who can't discern a scratching sound from the "sound of the transmission" as he put it. -_- There's a dent on my right front quarter panel too.. but I didn't do anything. I parked in a mall parking lot, watched a movie, and when I got out... the dent was there, along with a whole bunch of soda spilled over my passenger side window, quarter panel, and door. WTF? This is why, instead of getting it repaired, I was thinking of just changing it to aero kit or the 4.8is kit.

This car IS a lot of fun... when you're high in the rev range. Sometimes I wish I opted for the V8, but it's nice to know I bought the cheapest CPO X5 in the area at the time. 6 cogs would've been nice too... Everyday, when I'm on the highway going to my co-op job, it's doing 3K rpm in 5th gear, and I see my fuel gauge go down, down, down, down, down.

Speaking of co-op... I'm late! Darned xoutpost... LOL!
