I spent about $2K to make it absolutely mint for the new owner. He put it at redline and side-stepped the clutch and blew it up. The car wasn’t driven for nearly a year and I told him to get it tuned before street racing. He drove it from PA to KS and blew up the tranny in a week racing. Then, a crappy 5 speed was put in and he put it on eBay. A 3SIer won it cheap (no reserve), the guy refused to sell, was banned from 3SI, disappeared, and attempting to part it out on eBay/craigslist. basically, destroyed. > [@So you had a bad day...](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/so-you-had-a-bad-day/30211/51): > > looks sweet! love the roof! i dont know wat it is with tan interiors they just dont do it for me. congrats and good luck with it! The roof is sick. It goes into the backseat. One of the big selling points for me as I love the openess to it. The tan is weird. For me, it works and I am typically not a huge fan. I also LOVE the white. I didn’t at first but it works on certain cars. Perhaps I am justifying? 🙂 > [@Replaced the battery, now starter just clicks?](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/replaced-the-battery-now-starter-just-clicks/30175/15): > > I had the x3 a few cars back. Rides very smooth. Very comfortable and a very nice ride. I am 6’3 and 260 pounds big guy but X3 was perfect fit as well for me. This was huge for me. My previous SUV was like a caddy up front. Plus, Newman sits on my lap. It looks small but I got CRAZY room in it. I wish there was a bit more space between pedals though. > [@Replaced the battery, now starter just clicks?](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/replaced-the-battery-now-starter-just-clicks/30175/15): > > only one problem with it I have noticed is that it is “poorly” built in a sense. IT dents and dings too easily. So just watch for even the smallest rocks or stuff flying around. I live in NYC so I am used to pricks denting shit all the time. I park WAY away from people generally. Also, I have a good body guy. 🙂 As of right now, not a _SINGLE_ scratch on the car. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/new-car/251001)._
