Iāve had a ton of interest on SAL and 3 people who were fine paying the $5000 didnāt get their apps approved
When I posted it before yāall convinced me I was crazy to do it. I didnāt have a replacement at the time and got cold feet but just picked up the 392 yesterday so Iām set!
I think BMWFS has gotten really strict with transfer apps lately.
My cousin had a guy willing to do the 4k+transfer fees on his X3MC via SAL.
Guy claimed he had a 760 FICO and applied with a co-signerā¦
Denied by BMWFS
The monthly is similar but the main reason for the change isā¦
The m550 is an absolutely marvelous car as a commuter/on the highway, etcā¦
I work from home and my only required trips are to/from daycare. The one-two times/month I get on the highway with it (wifeās car is family
truckster) Iām obsessed w this thing. I wonāt even let my 3 year old wear shoes in it
Someone else will find more enjoyment with it than I am able to.
The 392 is a temporary solution. I got an amazing deal on it for todayās market and focused more on selling price than I did monthly cost (hope that makes sense). It should be an instant equity type situation. But, Iām planning to keep it until winter approaches or so (for now).
I really canāt figure out why the change but I recall @mattevan mentioning this during his X3m40 swap and my man @Bacons_C.C noting it on some of his as well
You had me excited with the 392 until I saw the jeep lol. I like the 392 in the jeep but it just drives weird after driving other 392ās. Crazy the price point they started at too, 75k. I guess they are banking on the popularity of jeep.
The word was that it fit like a glove but no extra space around the engine for the crush zone, basically it wouldnāt pass safety standards is what I was told.
Iām scared to imagine the price on a wrangler hellcat, we are probably talking 90k base. Demon territory.
Yea I read that and it wasnāt up to the Jeep standards for having water to a certain height and allowing the engine to breath even if packed with mud. The 392 can still breath even if the hood vent is caked.
Thereās a few aftermarket shops packing in hellcat motorsā¦I wouldnāt want those speed wobbles lol
