Really neat, solid people. Nuble dog owners, honerable folks I'm proud and lucky enough to know. Thanks!

The 4.6is is becoming almost impossible to find in decent shape and in stock form now because of abusive owners who spend money on crappy mods instead of actually maintaining the car. Keep it and take care of it!

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
