Really sorry to see you leave the F31 Scene.
Too bad I'm in Germany, I'd be all over your LMs!

Selling the BBS winters?
If I trade the car in, then yes the winters will be for sale.
Thanks man. Best of luck with the sale and finding a replacement!

By the way Martin, I would encourage you to share your experience with BMW Canada if you haven't already. It sounds like you're pretty much done with BMW for now, but maybe it couldn't hurt to pass this along to them as an example of how much we love our wagons in North America and would love to see a performance version brought here. Something that might be tuned more aggressively out of the box, a la Audi's S models, or at least a 340i with the option of RWD and a stick.

Again, best of luck.

What a shame, always loved seeing the F31 pr0n in this thread. Hopefully it'll stay local and I'll see it drive by one day...

GLWS!

Martin, so you are definitely getting the Audi Q5? I am seriously considering getting the AllRoad next.

SQ5 in Florett Silver in black diamond stitch and carbon fibre trim. These aren't of mine. Also stuck with 20" and not the 21"

As practical as the allroad is, I'm not sure you will like it much. Coming from the S4 to the allroad was underwhelming since the leather wasn't as nice and considerably slower and softer. The F31 was a nice in between.

But it's definitely worth a look. I saw one the other day and thought that I can't wait to see what the B9s will look like.

Hopefully in 1.5 years an avant in some form is back and my wife drives the SQ getting rid of the 4Runner and I get something new. A lot of uncertainty right now so will enjoy for now.

PM'd you about a few things. Thanks and good luck with the new car. My sister has a B8.5 S4 and I love the sound of the motor and the interior on it.

And so the end is officially here. Picked up the new ride this afternoon. I'm sure many won't agree (obviously as it's a BMW forum), but this thing blends the best of both world of the performance from my old S4 and the function of the F31.













And the first mod...Milltek exhaust installed an hour after delivery.

Nice wagon! Love BBS LMs on this platform. I had BBS RS-GTs on my F30 - similar design.
