Yeah new X3 is a fail build quality and design wise.
X5, X7 better but has flaws of being built in usa.
iX is great! But it depends if you like EV

Harvey's a smart man. Bitches loves to crash shit. might as well give her something disposable to crash.
He should be the one to buy her a murano crosscab and then add 32inch spinner wheels on it. He has the garage space for it.

The quality was brought up in the F chassis generation cars, the G chassis cars were a bit of a mixed bag as you can see they put a lot of resources into the G01 X3 and less in the G20 3 series. Then now the new X3 has been universally panned as a terrible vehicle, kind of feels like how the E46 was a world class vehicle then the E90 was just terrible.
Almost feels like BMW likes doing flip flops between their generations.

Weren't they going broke cuz they made too many series, that's the issue and there's no difference between them. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8, I thought they would skip 4 for the Asians who buy them but I guess not.

Last generation of the air-cooled Porsches, powered by a 3.6-liter flat-six paired with a six-speed manual transaxle, the car is finished in Black Metallic over black leather upholstery. Equipment includes a black soft top, 17″ Cup II wheels, power-adjustable front seats, cruise control, and air conditioning.
This was a California car with 79,307 miles with a rebuilt title, due to past front-end damage in 2003, repaired in California. I have had this car for 15 years and have driven it less than 1000 miles per year. Currently it has collector plates and insurance is about $600 per year.
Interior like new, runs like a top. Tires have lots of tread left with no uneven wear. Since I have had it, I have done all the typical 993 repairs/maintenance, replaced springs and shocks, lowered to euro height, replaced a couple control arm links and had alignment done. Replaced all lifters and valve cover gaskets. New plugs, wires and distributor caps, had fuel injectors serviced, SAI system removed. Replaced motor mounts and front bushings. Brake job with new pads fluid and rotors turned. Transmission fluid changed as well as new clutch slave cylinder. A new Cab top and headliner was installed a couple years ago. Cab top motors work but alignment is needed.
The front bumper and rocker panels were plasti dipped as he used to drive hwy quite a bit and the front bumper had begun to get quite a few rock chips.
Car itself runs honestly about as good as you could hope for for its age. Pulls hard still every gear with the power building in the top end of RPM’s
Has a full car fax, only issue was the original front end accident
It’s a bit of a hard car to price, he’s eager to buy something else but at the same time he typically will sell shit at a price where a flipper may just buy it and make a few G’s on it so I’ve told him to he patient
Much shittier overall condition cars with poor service history’s and worse bodies (albeit not salvage title) have gone consistently for $60,000 USD on BAT
If anyone is interested DM me and I can provide contact info | didn't take long for Pete to chop shop your dads car. 25kUSD starting bid for the roller after they pulled the whole driveline "for some reason" https://www.ebay.com/itm/17713483122...temis&media=FB

The odometer moved only 22km before dying a retarded death.
In the ad, it says 'This is a perfect candidate to fix or put in a LS engine in or electric conversion!'
THUMBS UP EMOJI so you know they're serious!
Fucking scrubs

I hate what the Porsche brand has become and these new douchey owners but the cars themselves are innocent. Fuck this is so sad. Poor 993. You deserved better.

The CEO of Partshub looks like the random goon who dies in the first 3 minutes of a John Wick film.
That makes me feel a little better

Taking the speedo that also has the low mileage odo in it sounds like they're off to do some sketchy shit with another car.

I did honestly try to talk her into something more, but she doesn't want it. The problem is going to be when my kids get older.
Edit: To keep it on track - these still look sharp:

Dunno how much that drivetrain is worth but numbers don’t really add up given the sale price lol...
My dad was a typical idiot and motivated seller once he gets something in his mind, but I think he got fair value given the circumstances.

I’d think that’s the plan.. wasn’t so much a flip given the sale price but an attempt to get a decent motor in a better body and stick the odometer in with it. If that car was mint it would probably fetch 100k CAD, stick a good motor in a donor body
Unfortunate it went that route, oh well

I just think it's funny how "the engine was removed for some reason" like the guy who did it is trying to imply he doesn't know how it happened. Par for the course I guess. Plausible deniability.

This classic is on you !!! | Modern society is so devoid of character and soul because everyone is chasing every last penny and shred of clout possible within how retarded, fake, and gay our system has become.
If the system were less retarded, you'd see more soul... but things ARE retarded because of our insane "leadership", so you will continue to see things sacrificed in the name of people chasing rewards within a broken system that rewards drooling retards who think just having a lot of money makes you a better person.
