My E39 530i

Group buy????

Ha ha, condom i dun produce lah. ay39 should know which is the best brand that can give u a "naked & raw " feel.

BMW7833 & Gerald, in order not to disappoint you, i made a rough calculation, i may be able to supply the latex provided can get at least 15 pax to minimise wastage. Price of latex foam per seat is RM200.

15 pax here is per seat count as 1, or the whole count as 1? just to clarify.
or in short, a full car= 1 or = 4 pax?
so if i commited to all 15 pax, is it = 3k?

Only for front seats. per pax would be RM200 x 2=RM400 (both passenger and driver seat)

15 pax will be RM400 x 15 = RM6,000.

 

[Gerald 5]

how about the back seat?

how about the back seat?

Normally only front seat need change of padding due to frequent wear and tear. I know the size after i changed mine.

Back seat i have not changed and i do not know what is the size of the padding required.

 

[Gerald 5]

so, minimum have to be RM6k..
Haha, a bit challenging to get 15pax, I think.
So, I reckon it remains as hopeful, not unless I am willing to spend 6k..aiyah
No way to buy some left over?? my overall seat condotion still ok, just the driver side the lil piece on the right is a bit sunken.

Hi ay39, as much as I would like to start the group buy but I just dont want to start something that I can't accomplished. No such patience and time.
Please count me in should someone decided to start 1. Neway, what is critical to me is that little piece on the right as per the pic below. Of course, if it is group buy I would go for both the front seats.

Why dun just go for whole upholstery?

After driving my newly acquired E46 around for the past 1 week, i stepped into my beloved E39 today. I would say E39 wins by good margin in terms of handling and driving pleasure. (save for the pleasure of the "stick" for my E46).

With the current market price for E39, it is really a bargain for such a good driving machine. it is the car to keep! and i believe it is destined to be an iconic classic for BMW.

I have been choosing between E36, 46 and 39............ finally placed my booking on an E39............... hope I made the right decision........ but E39 is kind of ahead of my age........ HAHA......

I would say u made the right choice. frankly speaking i also find the outlook a bit "uncle" look. but i look deeper for "inner beauty" he he.

Why didnt you go all the way for a 330i/330Ci? It'll be a nice little collection of M54B30, the 730i, 530i, and 330i. hehe

 

[naharnms]

yup i agree..all3L..and along the way, enriching the govt too on the road tax! haha..
maybe there should be a law if your first car is 3L and above, your second car road tax can get 50% dscount!

Just noticed that your 730i was actually a N52, not M54...
