    haha funny moment there!  and you cant see all the bird shit at 60mph, which is nice.

    I would have snapped you and your elusive e46, but my flip phone photos look like an 80s black and white portable tv.

      20160802121450.jpgSpotted at Portillos in Brookfield.  Quick pic before almost getting run over!

      I didn't even know that Portillo's was open yet.  Awesome!

        I ate there and while it was good, I'm not sure the 45 minute standing wait for my food warranted a revisit.

          It's like when Chick-fil-A opened on Capitol. Gotta wait a month or 2 when the hype wears off then try it

            I was there at noon and based on the line that went to the door I thought I'd be there forever.  Reality, I was in and out in 45 min.  That includes eating there.  They're usually really efficient.  They'll slow down but even the locations i've been to in Illinois are usually busy during peak times.

              I went it portillos on the first weekend and it took 45 min total, pretty long but considering the line was to the door, I didn't think that was too bad like pat said.

              Then I went there a few days later during the week during dinner hours and it only took about 10-15 min to get our food from the time we stepped in the door, not bad at all.

              Also, that chick-fil-a is still really busy. I work right near there and if we don't get there before 12 during lunch it takes forever.

                This was the 135i posted in Craigslist a bit ago with the smashed front end for $5k. Spotted at Maaco in New Berlin.

                    Paint looks fine. You can tell that the intercooler is still bent and crooked. I'm sure the new owner just had the body panels painted and installed there. Overall, currently hackjob status.

                          I've been seeing more M235i's than regular 2 series. Seems like they should've had a more limited run.
