It's funny how even with so few defining features in this pic, I instantly knew it was Alice's!

Such awesome photos!! I'm hoping to take mine there soon. Did you change brake fluid?

For me (normal sized dude, not old and arthritic) it's more about reducing wear on the seats. Those big side bolsters make getting in while the seat is in my driving position a high-friction affair. Much easier with it programmed to move back.

Looks amazing! What show is this?

I had mine from 2009-2015, drove it 29k miles and sold it to a friend for $5k+ more than I paid (it was in much better shape than when I bought it though). While I absolutely loved the E39 M5 and it was amazing for the time (and still looks wonderful), in comparison to the 5BW: Engine has a...

Even though it's a comfy, somewhat heavy luxury sedan, it really is pretty engaging in "boring" driving. The engine sound, torque and character, the crisp shifter and clutch, the communicative steering, the variable drive modes - they all add to the experience. I've almost always had a sedan + a...

Sorry if already mentioned, but if you are affected by this and live in California, go to consumer.risk.lexisnexis.com. as a CA resident you can easily submit a request to have your info deleted and fully opt out of selling personal information.

I've also been successful negotiating the $6/mo deal via chat.

I've also had the horn honking when I close the trunk. I'm pretty sure it's the honk to notify that you left the key in the car, and it's going off because you're close enough with the key that it thinks you're inside. Pretty annoying as it's damn loud in the garage. Another minor glitch in...

Same. It took me a good week or two for my eyes to adjust to the camera mirror, but now they can instantly refocus. And the trunk release I realized just takes a slower movement than I was doing (more a wave than a kick).

I kind of agree. I had a 2002 for 3.5 years (bought in 2013 w/47k miles for $13k, needed nothing!) and added 23k miles including tracking and dailying. I might get some grief for this, but out of the 7 cars I've owned now, even though I'd love another S2000 I have to say it was my least...

Forget decades, we may have 0 options like these in two to three YEARS. They're already some of the very last ones, and the 5BW is the last manual V8 sedan.

Hard to believe a C-class is 190.6" long and 4,749lbs(!!), ~600lbs more than a 5BW! At a starting price of ~$100k and thinking of the immense complexity and boost running through that 4-cylinder, I can't imagine buying one, especially in the longer term past warranty.

I'm wearing the other one! Went to the dealer for oil change #2 today and finally sat in a 4BW. I have to say, the back seat was acceptable for my 5'11" frame behind my own driving position, and the dimensions felt nice and tidy vs. my 5BW. I kinda really want to try one.

Just ordered a shirt! Okay, two. And a poster.

Not a fan of most new BMWs, but I'm curious to know why? I had an AP1 also; curious why you liked the 1 so much more than the AP2? Difference in redline, suspension tuning, something else?

Hah, I just got mine after 8.5 months (about the time it takes to bring a human baby to term). Goes along with my Lotus Elise's FLYW8 - different cars, different strengths.

Totally agree with all of this. Jason Cammisa gets an auto-click. Thomas and James are fantastic. Savagegeese also great in a different way. Other than Chris Harris, not much else.

Agreed. Funny enough, I placed an order with Sewell in December 2021 and with South San Francisco I think a couple months later. Got my Sewell car January 2023 and still waiting on the SSF one...
