Lups notes on the M4

[Lups]

Hi.

I've actually driven it twice now, and here are the things that annoy the shit out of me.

1. Candy, the sat navigation lady. That bitch does not stay on metric.
2. Candy, the sat nav lady. I have no idea what she's on about.
3. Candy, I hate her.

4. Seats make no noise at all. I was looking forward to this.
5. Austin Yellow, it's pretty damn yellow.
6. Me. I can't continue my road trip tonight, I'm way too tired.
7. The key was not designed me in mind.
8. Can't listen to music while driving, I actually like the way the car sounds.
9. I can't look at the car from a few angles, mod parts will kill my wallet.
10. My hotel room key doesn't work so well anymore, since I used it to take away the badge.

Anyway, you have done all the serious and respectable reviews, just adding the stuff you would never complain about as usual.

11. Oh, Peter II is a stupid name for the car. Next time around I will think this bloody thing trough.

Lupsy, so happy you finally got your car. I hope you don't have any issues such as rear diff (me) break issues (minor but me lol) Transmition (not me lol) and oh shit load other small stuff. Report back in when your room key works and how badly did you scratch your car with your room key? Oh need pics soon.

Do I even have to ask?

Boot. Space. Report. Please.

i dont understand why BMW made the key so big.

[modkrazy]

Funny, a few weeks @Ezio got eaten alive by the white knights for mentioning the key being dinosauric in size.

[stressdoc]

It was initially "the hornet". I liked that name.
We could go latin or greek and see if 'polistes' or 'vespi' might be catchy. Not too keen on 'Hymenopteran' for this case.

From what a BMW service guy told me when I got a X5 from him is that the key is bigger because it has some sort of chip to keep track of your car wirelessly and when you go back in for service, they use that key and plug it into something to get some info on your car. But I don't know..i wasn't paying too much attention and just gawking at how big it is.

They did the same shit with e92 m3 and it wasn't as big.

i honestly think there wasn't a real reason for doing it, other than just making it a different style. Either way i like the E90 keys more.

Check it....

And a couple random people stopped by to join the fun... They preferred AY over MW.

... And @Lups dear, your car does indeed have the seat buzzing package. I heard it while I was burning up your clutch.

mine buzzes too. But only for a short time when I start the car or just after I turn off the car.

Grats, Lups!

I'm pretty solid with technology. I can and will learn if needed, but your idiotic measuring system with the female telling me what to do:

Anyway, arrived an hour late, ended up buying the dinner and the worst: Candy was happy about it! On MY way back to the hotel, one way streets were done the wrong way, and there might have been a few more driving errors also. Candy, not me.

It's a German car, there has to be a way to get the nav work on any language I speak. And not on female.

It's really bad, when you have three F8x parked next to each other, and you fuck up. it's cruelty.

Always wondered why people carry such large wallets

My DCT will break soon. I'm sure.

really had only little time while awake to drive it. Most of the time I was just trying not to be a female, and cry. Manual after so long feels so gooooooood.

I know, DCT will kick my ass on the track or in the lights, the tires are still so damn hard to get to stick but: after my afternoon drive, I remembered all the reasons again why manuals are for me.

Buahahah, I don't care, as long as the car doesn't go in flames in the next 2 weeks.
