Had run down to Hilton head for a service call so I took the new car to get some break-in miles on it. Made sure to park it by itself when I got lunch

While I was eating lunch, this gem pulled up. It was immaculate!
Driven by a middle aged lady... Probably bought it new....

Lowers value, because it is no longer original and has been significantly modified from stock. With that, the risk of them not doing the job properly is introduced, or at least the uncertainty of it.

However, as BP said you could argue that the value has been lowered now that it isn't original. Sucks for a seller, but is great so the guy who just wants to enjoy a 6-speed.

Oof, SMG to 6MT swap but kept the SMG steering wheel. At least you could sell the old wheel to someone on M3forum who needs a rewrap core.

Couple of things:
(1) as Mystic really a rare color on the M3? I thought it was pretty common, where Topaz would be the rare blue.

(2) if you plan to keep the ZHP (or at least keep it for a little while) then for $9.5k that has potential to be a nice car with a little work, and assuming everything else checks out.

Edit: isn’t there a service interval around this mileage? It could be due for several things, which I assume the seller hasn’t taken care of based on the other things previously mentioned (Vanos, valve adjustments, suspension is probably toast, etc.). The S54 is definitely a different beast, and is the reason I decided on a ZHP—my budget certainly allowed for an E46 M3, but I wasn’t sure I wanted to deal with having one as my only car.

Master active track in an empty baseball field and learn how you can control hour drone’s angles and altitude as it constant tracks you as you walk around the field. Once you get that you’ll want an open space for car shots until you learn the drone’s AI more. You’ll want to fly where you can run the camera at max 1/60 of shutter although 1/30 is preferable. To get that shot without over exposing you’ll need to either wait until it gets dark enough or purchase ND filters for the lens.

Master active track in an empty baseball field and learn how you can control hour drone’s angles and altitude as it constant tracks you as you walk around the field. Once you get that you’ll want an open space for car shots until you learn the drone’s AI more. You’ll want to fly where you can run the camera at max 1/60 of shutter although 1/30 is preferable. To get that shot without over exposing you’ll need to either wait until it gets dark enough or purchase ND filters for the lens.
Cool, thanks. I've been thinking about getting a set of ND filters. Maybe I'll just pick ip a set so I have more flexibility in the time of day at which I can shoot.

So you have the Mavic? I was actually thinking about using the waypoints feature, not active track, because I thought active track has a limit to how fast it can go. I've seen some online tutorials/ videos; the drone is always too far away from the car, and it often can't keep up or loses track of the subject. I was thinking of using waypoints to set a fixed path and then just drive the predetermined route.

You barely need any speed to get a blurred motion background. The one I did was 1/60 at under 10mph. I know 1/30 would be even greater. At much farther distance you will need longer shutter or faster motion.

It is. This was my first experience on the Autobahn. I got my thrills a few times. I did not push it past 200 kph; did not want to exceed my experience and abilities.

I saw another Z1. My wife got the shots. I’ll post tomorrow.

My dad’s E39 is Oxford Green. It’s beautiful when it’s properly detailed. It’s garbage when it’s not.

Playing with the drone today again. It was too bright for me to do low shutter which meant I needed more speed. So I had to learn how to fly the drone backwards at around 20MPH, while keeping it on course so it didn’t back into a light pole.

Transfer from DJI to snapseed to edit the pic for drama:

Yes, 437M wheels from an f80, 9x19 and 10x19. The wheels came with 255/35 fronts and 275/35 rears, stock set up from a M4, beautiful PSS’s with 9/32nds tread, but had to change them due to tire diameter. The 335i is xdrive which only allows 1% or less tire diameter difference between front and rear axles, only applies to BMW awd cars. We could hear a slight dragging noise at 35-40 mph with stock M4 tires, talked with a t-case engineer at work, he said I was hearing the clutches slipping in the t-case trying to compensate for tire diameter difference. Brett bought new PS4’s, 235/40 and 265/35 (same stagger as his previous 2 cars), tire diameter difference is 0.1 inch, about 0.4%, t-case noise is gone.

OK, good, still in the area. Now that the Virginia rains have finally broken, we’re enjoying the boat every weekend. Was out last Sunday with my daughter’s crew all day, then July 4th took another boat load out, today for 5 hours, and have 8-9 people going out tomorrow too. Brett brought about a third of his old soccer team out today, lots of dual tubing, a little bit of wakeboarding too, the fuel injected 496 is very powerful and relatively fuel efficient.

John,
Will look you up when we start coming down your way. My daughter doesn’t enter college until Fall 2020, at that point GiGi & I will be at every W&M home women’s soccer game, probably most away games too. I don’t have delusions that she’ll be a starter as a freshman but do expect her to see some playing time in most games. With the 2 older brothers, Lil Nik doesn’t give a crap about the size of her opponent, as a natural center defender she normally picks the biggest and/or fastest opponent’s scorer and says I got this one. She has an ID camp at W&M this coming Thursday-Saturday, GiGi will drive her to/from, I’m hanging back to install new brakes on my truck, and hopefully go boating too.

First of all, it was bumpy as hell. There’s a huge dip at T1 into the infield, which isn’t ideal because there’s a concrete wall on the outside of that turn. There are actually a lot of concrete walls in the infield, and I admittedly was fairly uncomfortable in certain sections. The driving line through the infield isn’t super obvious, which really left it up to a lot of trial and error. There’s another huge dip right before the infield exit, which is off-camber and again there’s a concrete wall. The banking is unbelievably bumpy, I can’t imagine how that would feel at 190-200mph.

My diff gearing once again was annoying. Leaving the infield in second would’ve left me shifting immediately on the banking (not ideal), but taking it in third left me with my foot to the floor and not a lot happening (the option I used each lap). I was only able to get to ~115mph before the braking zone for the chicane.

The weirdest part is how useless your side mirrors are on the banking. The driver side shows nothing but the apron, and the passenger side just gives you a nice view of the sky.

All that’s to say it was interesting, and I’m glad to have driven it, but I will gladly be sticking to traditional road courses going forward. The exception being that I really want to drive the Rolex course at Daytona.

Here’s a couple pictures my pops took. I need to teach him how to use a real camera instead of his phone.

When we started it was hot as balls. Our last run was at 8pm, and that was only because of the two wrecked cars; I think it was supposed to be a 7:20 final session. The M3 (which I’m thinking was actually Interlagos, not LMB) required an EV so cleanup was very slow. I’m glad it was darker though because (1) it was a cool experience, and (2) the tires were a lot less greasy. Greasy tires + concrete walls instead of runoff areas = occasionally clenched buttholes.

Also, I leveled out Nate’s picture to show the banking a little better. I can’t wrap my head around the fact Talladega is 9° steeper.

I had the opportunity to go up to Calabogie with Botond over this past weekend and have to say I had a blast while I was up there. The people who were there were awesome and when Botond ran into a little snag, there were so many people willing to give a hand to help him get past his snag. Unfortunately Botond lost a track session due to the snag he ran into but in the end everything turned out well and his ZHP was back in the game... I took a few photos showing Botond tearing up the track... :)

Assembly specs that matter performance wise; 87mm 11.5:1 pistons, Eagle Rods, RR cams, super tech dual valve springs, m50 manifold and Raceland euro headers. ASC deleted and an old Dinan CAI.
It’s got a bit over 700 miles on the setup now and I’ve ran it through the rpms a few times. Seems to make most power very late “4K+” granted it is trying to run on stock mapping and the exhaust manifold primaries are huge.

Edit: it also has a 14lb flywheel and act sprung hub clutch.

Vesper Lynd was the original “Bond girl” from Ian Fleming’s first James Bond book, Casino Royale. She embodies the femme fatale role about as well as any literary character I’ve encountered, and Eva Green nailed it in the movie. Bond also names what became his signature “shaken, not stirred” martini the Vesper.

For anyone who’s never read the books, I highly suggest them. He’s pretty dark, and there’s a ton of character depth. They are a far cry from the gadgety, over-the-top movies full of witty one-liners and puns.

NOTL on Canada is a huge winery area, and a very interesting and savvy art community. We did a B&B, then went to the the annual Shaw Festival and saw some terrific plays. Food was outstanding (plus the great exchange rate). Rode my Trek bicycle 45 miles round trip up to Niagara Falls on Saturday 7/7 (had to do it). 67 year old legs won't win the Tour de France but still getting me to some sweet places (and I slept like a log that night).

The entire area reminds me a bit of Cape Cod or maybe Martha's Vineyard, or even Door County north of Green Bay. All great tourist spots

What happened to the black M3?

A Titan took it out one unfortunate evening last year. Finally purchased it back from insurance and everything is being transferred to the wagon which was purchased two weeks ago! [emoji41]

Just a little bit of corner carnage. But the engine still runs perfectly!

Fellow coupe owners: even when you’re absolutely certain your quarter windows are closed, triple check before washing the car.

Wife got a flat that resulted in a split sidewall and still can't drive either of my manual cars, so I had to get creative with keeping the wagon on the road while I wait for a new tire to come in.

Say hello to my hella concave touring on 18x9.5et35.

It looks ridiculous.

i just sold the white wagon.. picked up a japan rot XI wagon and picking up an orient blue wagon.... both on natural brown sport interiors....

both are to be S54 swapped and sold this year but man im really thinking about selling the sedan and keeping one of the wagons.... they look so good.
