I should have warned ya, I had the same run around when I bought my Z in Vegas. Don't know if you are also aware of the City tax you're gonna have to pay as well. I got a bill from the State three months after my purchase stating that I owed another $650 for City tax because I bought it out of State.

Hmm, I hope nothing like that happens. They told me that I had to use my city's tax rate and such, which was much higher than Vegas'.

I'm legal now though.

Why must tags cost so much in AZ? lol...

I am still a bit amazed that he went to all the trouble to order them and then have them painted to match (they aren't available stock in the bc color).

dmhenderson · 12-27-2012, 08:34 PM

Cool, who did you go thru ? I have been sitting on the fence and you may have just kicked me in the right direction

dmhenderson · 12-27-2012, 09:17 PM

Bulletproof Automotive. $250 + actual domestic shipping (you don't pay between Japan and the states).

LONG lead time.

Let me know if you need a link.

ZForce · 12-28-2012, 12:30 AM

Props, I'll take two. Its the real deal from what I have heard and the feel is worth its weight in gold. I had seen these were going for that much and no one drops their price. Appreciate the contact, let me know if its true what they say about this shift knob.

Just boarding a flight to Cali to my covered and parked Z. She has been sitting abandoned and alone for weeks. I can hardly wait to goose her a bit. (Yes we are still talking about my car)

Thinking about taking her up to Lake Tahoe tonight. It will be our first snowy adventure if I do... Maybe ill take the 330i for more snow gear room (and clearance).
