I'm on there all the time. Totally agree on all counts. The most realistic model would have to be the Evora 400 and now GT430 variants.

I did see a new 3-eleven at the Ring. Wow, hadn't seen one live. Kind of expensive for a track toy but it must hang in there with the super cars no problem.

Those are badass and road legal.

Congrats! Beautiful spec. Look into getting a clutch stop from bms. Changes the manual driving experience. Who was your dealer?

Sweet color combo.

South Bay BMW - Steven Marx. Good experience.

I'm not too well versed on the clutch stop, does it make it shorter and bite quicker? I did play a lot with the seating position but ended up feeling the clutch was long-ish or not quite perfect for me.

Will make travel shorter on the top end. I had it on my previous f80 and loved it. Gotta get it for new one.

Congrats on the SMB and welcome to the Manual club.

Best $10 you'll ever spend.

Excellent. I did some reading. Will try it with two washers to ensure it's fully disengaged

After a long wait it's finally here! LA to SF drive tonight.

I also took some pics of M2 competition (that grey is beautiful), M3 CS (still trying to figure if I like or dislike the frozen paint), M5 (frozen too, looks less nice than CS) and a beautiful Alpina B7.

I was at BMW Welt this week and they rearrange the line up plus they have the new 8 series on display.
