Recently bought an 05' with ~70K miles. Car needs some TLC on the interior but overall satisfied with my new project. Planning on doing some preventive maintenance (already ordered valve cover gaskets, ignition wires, and spark plugs). Previous owner installed exhaust with electronic cut off valves. Don't hate it but also don't love it. Currently looking at C63 exhaust or E63 exhaust systems. Car will eventually get a new bumper as it appears that the current e63 aftermarket bumper is the "short" version and not to exact OEM specs.

Thanks, from what I can already tell this car never leaves you with a dull moment. The overhead console stopped working so time to do some recon work!
