My first BMW

I traded in my 09 FX35 and downsized to a CPO 17 440i GC since kids are older and no longer need strollers and other big items. Plus we have a 7 seater for family trips.

The dealer tossed in the black grill to sweeten the deal since I expressed interest in the display in the showroom.

Loving the car so far, would love the mppsk and keep the original factory warranty plus my extended CPO warranty. But I'm reading that option is close to 3k for not much gain?! Tint was already done by previous owner and I just plastidipped the rims over the weekend and planning a chrome delete with vinyl next. Hope I don't mess that up!

Closing this thread as my car was totaled from someone blowing a red light. Upgraded MPPSK and carbon boomerang are at the junk yard now. This was a great car.

Interested in the MPPSK if undamaged.

Insurances wouldn't allow me to remove it since they added that into my total payout.

Oh no! Looks like you had a passenger? Hope everyone is okay. May I ask how much the settlement was for compared to what you paid? Are they paying market value ie inflated because of the car shortage?

What are your plans for the next car?

NICE, well done! I had an 09 FX50S back in the day. Was actually a pretty fun car.

My daughter was sitting on the other side in the back and we're both fine.

I pretty much got what I paid for it 2 years ago, plus a little extra for the mppsk install. So they're paying current market value.

I used that payout and added a little more to get a cpo 18 m550i. Figured it's even safer with its extra size and people driving terribly these days.
