What do you do for a living? If you do not work, then how do you /did you pay for your Bimmer?

fiance is a Ph.D biochemist, i deliver pizzas to make up for the difference. i also flip anything i can to get parts for my 6. she gets her Ph.D in 3 semesters and i finish my degree in accounting.

that would be the short answer

I'm an assistant manager at a hobby store, though I've been tutoring for friends' kids since college. The tutoring is what paid for my 635, though it wasn't particularly expensive.

I drive truck. I have driven everything from long haul to local delivery. I even did the owner/operator thing for awhile. I currently drive a truck-trailer fuel tanker, i wish I had found this thirty one years ago. Life would have been much simpler.

i'm a college student at Iowa State graduating next month, and i work for interstate batteries -- just finished up as a warehouse operator, now i've been promoted to an account manager since i will have my degree.

more money for parts! :)

I'm a material science and engineering student and work my butt off during the summer and took a 9 month co-op. I also get help with tuition so keep the living expenses down means more money for cars!

I'm a former Microsofty and Amazonian, post boom, pre crash. I am a tile and stone contractor and part time real estate investor. I took the tax money I owe at the end of this quarter and bought my dream car, ha, ha. Let's see them catch me now!

HAHA +1 lol

hey man, you should like try flipping notes - if you get good at it you can make more money than your fiancee', and way better than flipping burgers or pizza =)

(p.s. I am a full time student at the University of Maryland, a Certified Personal [fitness] Trainer, and waiter for extra cash - I haven't yet said on any of these "for bimmer owners" threads)

I'm still in high school
I have a very generous mother.

I'm a second year college guy in mechanical engineering. School is my full time job. I do odds and ends here and there, make a dollar moving furniture for someone here, turn a dollar on bike parts there. I'm aiming for a summer internship wherever my expenses will be the cheapest...more $$$ for the ride.

I'm also working on a fixer-upper E30 'vert for sale in the near future.

Inheritance money from grandad is helping a current boom for E24 parts. I can't decide what I want to spend it on yet, though.

Anything else is left-over cash from previous summer jobs/b-days/x-mas's/etc.

Well i have a 1981 (635csi) and it has been in the family for a long time. I am a junior in high school, and i work full time ant a automotive shop. I live in santa cruz ca and i was borne and raised here.

The 635 is a great car and handles very well.
It has bilstien shox and dinan coils and a swaybar
I have never seen a euro car with the same intake manifold as mine.
I have figured out a way to add about 25 to 30 horse power to the car, it has to do something to do with the fuel pressure regulator, its hard to explane

well thats about it!

when you say euro do you mean euro as BMW or euro as in dirty motor? lets see some pics. also we'd all love to hear it. some guys here i bet could figure out what you mean

My wife makes all the $ and bought me a classic m3 vert for the last two years on my birthday. I have a 98 and 99 m3. Actually in addition to my bmw's, she has bought or let me bring home a new car for each of the last five years. Have had a o5 Dodge cummins truck, 06 Denali, 07 srt 8 Chrysler 300, and now an 08 Dodge mega cab. Lighten up! I do some work and I watch my two kids after school so my wife doesn't worry about that. I'm also a consumate DIY guy and rarely pay anyone to do anything home related. I admit to a car buying problem...

You are a Lucky man!

bowling paid for this car, though the real job will likely cover the upkeep.
