Aww, poor guy. Believe me, I don't expect a liar and thief to respond nice to anyone. Enjoy your car!

Liar?

Thief?

WTF you talking about.

I posted up my correspondence with Eric at EAG one day before my post. I was looking for an Alpine White or Silver Grey car.

poster offered up the same car I was looking at already in TITANIUM SILVER.

Yet you never bothered responding to the person who posted that car in the thread and let anyone know that. We'll just take your word for it. Anyways, I don't care. Enjoy your car. You now know where the m3 forums are and can spam them to death about it.

I didn't have too. I asked for silver grey or alpine white and not listed on autotempest.

I am sure he was trying to be helpful with google, but he didn't meet the money award.

I am not sure what you don't understand in that.

Here's the new deal. I will gift MWMORPH $100, IF SpatiallyAware/all aliases never posts in garage again.

If he was truly this upset with this, it would be an easy thing for him to do.

There you go, changing the conditions again. :whiste:

Unfortunately too many can't follow the original conditions so I try to dumb them down as it progresses.

My original donation request is unfaltered though...if I can get AT to donate to the animal charities I'd stick by that deal.

How about being the first to send in a couple hundred?

I typically do local stuff, around $5k of donations for the year. Thanks for reminding me though, I've been meaning to dig through all my records to make sure I have everything I need for my taxes.

Sheesh. Just curious, do you know how long are those tires supposed to last?

Also checked out some videos of the rasp eliminator & it sounds pretty badass.

yeah, they are 80k tires with prorates.

Most of the tires I ran averaged 8-10k.

You must drive pretty hard. I'm 30k on my originals on my 135i. The dealer said they usually only last ~20K. It is my baby though, so I treat it well :)

yeah right you do. Still $5k is great if you really are donating to real charity.

My wife and I set a goal each year, we've been doing ok recently so we bumped up how much we budgeted for it. We've got our direct deposit for our paychecks set up to dump a percentage of each paycheck into a separate account. When we see something we want to give to something we pull the money out. If you don't plan to do it and set the money aside ahead of time it's much less likely that you'll do it.

This year a good chunk of it went to a local charter school that's getting off the ground. They were trying to get money for a used copier and a bunch of books to create a small library.
