Looking to find someone who can put eyeballs on a vehicle for me quickly, just a 5-minute visual evaluation to see what you can see.   I will cover gas and beer $$ for your effort.   Please shoot me a PM if you are willing.   Thanks!

I'd drive cars.  Whatever tool fits the job.  BMW'S have always fit the fun tool and Nissan's before that.  I can't think of anything at the moment that I'd replace my BMW with at this moment that fits all of my needs BUT if BMW didn't exist I'd have a Chevy SS or a Mercedes E63 or C63.  Maybe a b7 RS4.  The r32 gtr would be a good choice too.

Boris3 said: Never done BaT. Just read the FAQ, so you have to place each bid individually? Not like Ebay where you can put in a max bid amount and it automatically bids for you up to your max?  Yes. You put in your max bid, and it automatically goes up to that price. You put in the max amount you want to pay. It does not bid it up for you.

The most interesting thing to me about this is that they used a LHD and RHD. Made me think about the old “Wider is better” advertising campaign

Was wondering what those twin cammers were

Reminds of top gears skit of Peugeot

For autox: RE71R   Or advan a052 both are a very fast 200tw there are some other 200tw tires that would be better suited (last longer) if you’re doing lapping days or hpde style stuff

patsbimmer1 said: I'm not even so much upset that it's fwd based AWD and transverse but it's so fucking ugly!  The M sport seats look nice but that exterior is fucking miserable.  It's based on the Mini Cooper platform which really is a good platform so im going on a limb and saying it'll probably drive well.  We also need to remember this is only for the 2 GC, the upcoming 2 coupe *most likely* won't be based on this platform. Can fit... Is that thing running and driving yet? It is not driving yet.  The new house has slowed it down.  The engine is installed though, what i meant was that with very little resources it fit into the existing packaging of the vehicle with no compromises to what was there.  Even with AWD which is now just RWD it still has stow and go 3rd row seating, large fuel tank, etc.  It isn't like I had to get rid of any features to fit the new drive train.

REKIII said: Very cool.  I like where he put the charging port. Agreed The hinge mechanism he used / created is a lovely touch that I feel like many would just skip.

Billy's Mom's White

Interesting article.

I will watch this on my drive home today. thanks

Love his style, golf yellow E12's are so cool.

I'm living proof of this theory.

yet another thing to blind us from the rear view mirror

Is your garage already done?

I use whatever my owner's manual says to use.  Here's the recommended lubricants page from one of my cars, I'll just swing by Wal-Mart and pick some of this up: [image: 20190607\_062047.jpg]

Hey, you sold me the Pirelli Alfredo separators!  Very cool.  Yeah, look me up when you're looking to get this done.  I should be set back up for welding and etc around the middle of May.

YoungCR said: Yup only the M5's are still listed which is surprising because 535i and 528e sale prices have gone up over the last 5 years with the rise of the M5 prices. FWIW E34 & E39 540i and E39 M5's aren't valued either.  Maybe they added their values to the ones listed for E36 M3's by accident...
