How many times was this video posted to this thread? It's one thing to buy off the lot and pay a few thousand over msrp for something special like a Blackwing. I assume you had a conversation about the price and told them what you wanted, wait for months and then they drop this bullshit on a...

The tech said he bled the clutch and there was a little air in the lines but it certainly wasn't the cause to the problem (his words). The fluid was absolutely fine, that amount of moisture doesn't form in 10 months let alone 3 years. FWIW I personally checked the fluid with that exact...

Manual only, I had zero interest in auto.

The shifts are way smoother and more consistent, 2nd gear is slightly notchy at low rpm but no where near as bad as my first car and what I'd consider normal operation. After I got the settlement for the red car, I got a chance to drive it after it had a new transmission put in it. I'm really...

Hi, I thought I'd post here to give my experience in calling a few dealerships within the last month and I was able to find my dream build via retail stock. I wanted to give a shout out to these dealerships that earned my trust and I would not hesitate to do business with. They will work...

I was sick of waiting around for my order from 3 months ago. So I called several dealers and I picked up an almost identical build to my order. Summit white Top tier seats in tan with the $2900 CF back delete PDR Parking Package Tech bronze wheels Red calipers This is the backup build I...

🤔I'm not trying to sound like a know it all here but I reviewed the SM in more detail. J56/JL9 is a V series steel rotor J57 is the CCB blackwing rotor J6H is the steel faced standard blackwing rotor If you notice this verbiage is only mentioned under the V series steel rotors and not the...

I have only heard great things about Girodiscs from the track rats I know. Having a pair of those in place of the OE rotors seems like a good thing especially since they shit the bed on you so soon. People use them because they are lightweight and can save over 5lbs of rotational mass...

Congratulations! No one has hard feelings on this forum about replacing a BW with that. Couldn’t happen to a nicer Canadian. I really like the color❤️

I agree too, I was playing devil's advocate. I think the car is quiet and refined in the right modes, a little too much in the engine/exhaust note department. I'm so thankful there is no drone. I can't recall the specifics, but the team designing the exhaust went through more than 30...

It looks like you did a really nice job, professional looking IMO. The front tires have foam inside, too bad we can't track down more of that stuff for the rear tires which would help as well. I know they sell spray insulation foam specifically made for sound deadening which could work well...

Thread 'Manual trans owners--both 4 and 5' Manual trans owners--both 4 and 5 Generally speaking the majority have no issues with the tr6060, but the ones that do didn't have a happy ending. But that issue specifically is odd. When this happens, did the car move forward at all before it popped...

Incredible, I am a huge advocate of PPF and I'm really happy to see it can take this kind of abuse and still protect the paint.

Physically, I'm in decent shape but my lower back got messed up in my early 30s from weight lifting, sports and people always asked me to help them move. Every once in a while my back goes to shit, and sometimes I can't figure out why but I can't imagine it getting any better with age. I...

#base seat comfort

more questions: for those of you who have sat in the mid tier seats vs the top tier seats are the top tier seats really that much more comfortable or is the material softer to the touch and the seat cushions are the same feel in the seat? I had mid tier seats in 5BW and while they were...

Reviving this thread, Now that many of us have had more time, miles and wear on the seats. I'm on the fence about the tier I want to go with and the color. Regarding the 5BW's top Semi Aniline Leather with Sky Cool Grey and Natural Brown Leather, along with the Mid Tier Aniline Leather in Sky...

Jack Cooper Transport has a union as well. I'm not sure if they are on strike. Anyone local to Lancing seen Scabby?

Jesh, I though BMW turned a corner with reliability, I guess you're almost better off with a late 2000s era. At least you know what the problems are which can be addressed (vanos, coolant systems, timing chains) What specifically was wrong with your m2?
