...what COOL stuff should I look for... ?? (Stuttgart)

I'd love to get a 3.8L M5 motor, but...realistically am I going to put that in my 525?
Na...

well, most of the parts are cheaper online in USA, I always compare prices between shops in Germany and USA and depending on the exchange rates I buy the cheaper one of same brand/quality. Even the Bosch parts I buy in USA like oxy sensors and distributors and ignition coils, cheaper than Germany.
The $ is weak against the EURO, Yen, in addition if you buy locally in Germany you have to pay 19% sales tax.
