    m340i to 4 Blackwing...why?

    I finally read your blog post and have to agree. I had a 23 M440i X-drive convertible, but it just wasn't doing it for me, having to drop another couple grand to get wheels and tires fit for the track, the suspension never seemed to be the right ride and the parking brake right next to the roof...

    Cadillac V-Club

    I'm hoping the Cadillac will be my last purchase, getting to the age where I shouldn't wear out another car since I work from home, so not going to worry about losing the BMW discount (my old employer had a $1.5k discount for BMWs and $1k discount for Minis). I'll keep the BMW CCA membership...

    Blackwings really need a 'Performance Supplement'

    Saw a video of a guy at Laguna Seca with an Integra Type S that had a tire fold over on itself. Gotta wonder if it started out under pressure and mediocre driving teamed with track curbing might have been contributing factors

    Cadillac V-Club

    Thanks for the info. I'm south of one region, north of the other, so i'm going to join for the next year to see what I end up with. I don't think i'll be going back to BMW soon enough to get my discount, although I might renew in at the end of my two years just in case. I'm pretty happy with...

    Cadillac V-Club

    Is anyone here a member? Is it worth the $100 or so a year? I was a BMW CCA member and all I got was constant spam to buy raffle tickets. No invites to anything out of the ordinary aside from car control clinics that aren't discounted

    CT5-V My CT5-V Blackwing

    I like that with the Blackwing (CT4 in my case), I can drive in tour mode with a nice compliant but sporty suspension and get more serious incrementally from there. I prefer it over my brother's 330 ZHP package. Too stiff, always felt harsh. My Z4 (2nd gen) seemed to be a better handling car...

    iPhone charging woes

    my wife decided to experiment with my phone and oriented it so that the top was pointing to the right instead of the way that I usually do it pointing to the left. That seemed to yield much better results. Still doesn't charge very fast though

    iPhone charging woes

    13 Pro Max owner here. I was noticing last week that i was having charging issues until I centered my phone on the charging mat and it suddenly pinged and started charging

    I have to read the owner's manual

    Used to drive me nuts when people would refer to my BMW motorcycles as the Cadillac of motorcycles

    Pics of your Blackwing in regular parking spots

    It was definitely meant as a joke. I came from several BMWs and have seen the light. Love my Blackwing

    Gotta ask it: Last car was a BMW?

    V-Series 20th Anniversary Merch

    I used to hand out swag as a Subaru Ambassador. We had a couple umbrellas, including a golf umbrella that were pretty high quality. I gave those away for free...

    A bit dusty due to windy conditions in agricultural area and a heavy mist, but parking next to my son's Miata

    Dealer damaged my roof lining?!?

    I still wear a mask. My wife is immuno compromised and I'd prefer not to bring anything home. should have heard the person behind me in the grocery hacking up a lung.

    We can't have nice things...

    That's why I hard park most of the time now. Backup camera and park distance sensors goes a long way.

    Laguna Seca in a CT4-B Blackwing

    My bro wants me to get a PS5 so that I can practice before my next outing, but that will probably be so he can tell me he's faster. The Corkscrew is on of my huge FRs since I hit it completely wrong once and pulled a Rossi/Marquez style trip through the dirt in my old Z4. There's a bit of...

    Laguna Seca in a CT4-B Blackwing

    My first track day in the Blackwing. Really fast car when I remember to actually hit the gas. Only 2 sessions due to some run ins with a group of Porsche drivers thinking they were GT3 racing. Crowding in the corners, passing in the corkscrew, passing without point by, but still fun...
