Cheap parts source found!
I just bought:

8 OEM NGK Platinum 4 electrode Spark Plugs (BKR6EQUP) $8.03 each
2 OEM Mann Air Filters $11.06 each
1 OEM Mahle Oil Filter Kit $7.08 each

...all for $99.44. Shipping was FREE! (free on orders over $99) and there was no sales tax since I live in CA and these guys are in GA.

I placed my order on Monday around noon and just received the shipment today (Wednesday)... talk about fast!

These guys carry the SACHS clutch kit and flywheel for $415 and $662, respectively (not the cheapest, but not bad since there's no tax and shipping). I didn't price out any other items that they have for the Beast on their website, but it seems like a pretty reasonable source at least for plugs and filters.

Sorry about that... I was so "excited" I "prematurely" hit post. The site was BuyEuroParts.com.

Happy shopping!

That is pretty good pricing. And since I don't mind tooting my own horn, the total comes to about $92 from me before shipping, and you would be supporting a Supporting Vendor of the site. Shipping would be about $6-$10 depending on location. I also have the Sachs clutch kit for $411.59 and the flywheel for $656.25.

2000 M5 dial-a-clutch Luk (sachs) flywheel $528 Luk clutch kit under $250 I believe most all the prices listed here can be bested at least a little or in the case of the clutch-a lot. Just fyi. No sles tax or shipping.

These are same parts BMW uses as OEM.
