Just sold my AWD.

My only advice, get the 3SS. Not a big difference in price on the open market, but has all the nice extras - heated seats, auto temp control, etc.

If you can find an '09 it had factory BT, but they only built a few hundred.

I'd also get the '07 UP as it has the newer E38 ECU which is more compatible with future mods.

Good luck - you will love it. The TBSS had many unique features (like self leveling rear air suspension) and the handling is awesome. The only downside was the MPG. I was getting 12 as a daily drive, putting $90 in it every 2-3 days.

I test drove an 07 as well as a GC SRT8 and I fell in love with both but eneded up with the GC due to power, but I believe the 07s had all the options

All year TBSS are badass but i would go with an 07+ just because most of the kinks from the first year were attended to.

When I get a TBSS, will it be able to pull my crew cab loaded on a car hauler?
