Car Swaps - Is It Advisable, If It's Your Old Flame. by Jacksolo4me(m): 8:41pm On Aug 05, 2014 |
Recently came in contact with a 2006 BMW 650i convertible coupe..4.8L V8 360hp at da rear wheels. It had a host of issues in it that would easily run into 6 figures and the owner was asking for 2.5m for it otherwise hell swap it with a "suitable" car. Here's the question. "You know deep inside ull burn if you make a deal like this especially when the car(Yours) is in perfectly good shape-if not better, But that desire that eats within you is telling you to go for it" Would you do a swap with an old flame(car you'll love to have then but couldn't afford it) even if it means ull be at loss. Here's a pic of mine

Repairs could run into a region of cost unforeseen...so one would consider the cost of restoring/repairing the 'old flame' before making a decision |

yungboss: Repairs could run into a region of cost unforeseen...so one would consider the cost of restoring/repairing the 'old flame' before making a decision Truly spoken...but then would anyone still do it?...Buying a restoration project at near cost of a "working car"? |

itsadey: Please do give general cost implications. A 6 series will most likely be my next upgrade. After I get an X5 for the wife. |
