For the last little while, I have been thinking about making a change form the SVT. It's been a bit of a bear to keep reliable of late, and I want to spend less time fixing the car. I figured it was time for something newer, perhaps from the same decade we are in now. Something more fuel efficient, practical, likely a Japanese car for the sake of reliability.....oh, well.
Meet the new Philmobile, the 1997 BMW 540I with the six speed. Guess I jumped out of the frying pan into the fire, but I want to have a bit of fun before the wife and kids thing happens. It needs some minor cosmetic items, but runs like a top. And that DOHC V8 is sa-weet! The only problem is, I feel like I am putting on airs everywhere I go.
Needless to say, the SVT will be for sale as soon as I can get it ready. I'll post the info once I have things fixed and it's ready to go. I'll miss that car like crazy, but I can't keep that and the Bimmer and the wagon
