This about sums it all up. I am not sure if he is just a poser or a total attention whore or possibly just has no idea in general.

"1) If I didn't mention it here, IT'S NOT IMPORTANT TO ME (braking, performance, acceleration, etc). I have the big V8 parked up if I wanted thrills.
2) Yes, I will rebadge the car.
There is no such thing as a "true Lumma" I'm not putting M badges or irrelevant badges on my car. My car will be customized by LUMMA and there will be Lumma emblems and badges for it. That is is not faking or posing

From Bimerfest:
My car was built in the US? OK, correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't I type that I ORDERED the car (I had it built to the specs i wanted)? Didn't I type that I TRACKED it? So, did I imagine the port of departure and the ports of entry? Did BMW lie to me?Honestly, I'm gonna have to end this right here, because I have issue when I tell someone that "I don't like coffee" and they say "actually you do, you just got tricked by your taste buds". Who else knows what I know? Who can tell me what I've doen and not done other than myself?Sorry, you're wrong. I don't own an X3. In fact, it's a wonder why you'd say that my Bimmer was built in the US when I don't think I even posted what year or model my BMW is.

Sorry, you're wrong. My 2009 X5 was built and shipped FROM GERMANY. That much ... is a fact. Uhm, I brought my car outright. It was SHIPPED to me from Germany. How do I know? Because I TRACKED it for a month prior to it landing in Florida.

I was offered a sponsorship to modify my car to the G-Power kit. In fact, I'm still in conversation about it. I could save 3K on the kit, but the company wants to charge me 15K for repaint/labor. I-don't-think-so!But seriuosly, after I read the installation manual, all I can say is "TRULY PERMANENT" and "DESTRUCTIVE INSTALLATION". I like the fact that the parts will attach firmly (due to all the adhesive required, and the screwing, and the cutting, etc), but I do not like the cutting of the wheel housing (front and rear), or the flanging of the rear arches, or the soldering of the wiring, or the cutting of the crossbar, or the cutting of the support bar in the fenders, or...
So, if you don't care about the, AHEM!, "destructive installation", go ahead and slap on the kit. You'll probably beat me to it ... cause I think I'll go with Lumma CLR 530.... still deciding.

I'm in the process of modding my car, but it's going to take a few months or purchasing here and there. I already have the front and rear eyelids, the shaded tail lamps, and the roof extention. Now I need instructions on how to replace the roof railing (before i decide to purchase) and also exchange teh window trim. Then I'll get my bonnet, then budget for the wheels/tires. THEN (finally), I'll get a assistance loan for the body kit. I'm not saying which one I'm choosing, but the total project will probably cost around $35k - $45k.

I'm not a desperate seller - I own the vehicle (have title). I only want to "upgrade" to the X6 or the 5GT ... or maybe the Audi Q7 I don't knwo how to cancel this thread, but car is no longer on sale. I am in the process of modding (kit) it out. $40K+ project..."

Basically you went from selling to scoffing at the idea of spending $15k for a sponsored G-power to deciding to drop over $40k in Lumma pieces to add to a 2009 x5 3.0. that is worth far less than$40k. Starting to think you are either an employee of said body shop or the owner of mom and dad's hand me down X5. I don't even want to get into your the fuel injection ('carborator'). There was a recall on several different models 08-10 models. Remember, the fuel injection is "high-powered". If it's not spitting the fuel in hard enough = llaagg ... like a slow modem while playing an MMORPG.
Contact your nearest dealer and ask about the fuel injection for your vehicle.
... and no, the 3.0 X5 is not turbo charged, unfortunately. There is, however, a 'chip' that gets rid of the dead zones in the gas pedal = an extra 8 HP.
