This was last Saturday at a benefit rally I was involved in. I was one of two BMWs on the cruise...the line of cars wrapped around the building. It was so insane to see some of these 1000hp cars just putting along on the highway! Awesome event. Last pic, of the other BMW I was with.

Out of place, but clearly the best handling...:shifty Is that an e36 M3 or a wanna-be?

That is most definitely an M3.

But then they see my interior and just feel stupid and notice that my 6 cylinders are rapping their modified 4 banggers... and im an automatic!

No one gives me too much crap. Most of those guys know me pretty well since I used to build Corvettes, Camaros, and Trans Ams for a living. I've owned multiple domestic cars similar to these. I'll be building another soon as long as I can keep my BMW out of my wallet and savings...

Domestic car is similar to a ZHP huh, I guess we are not only "not special" but we also suck.

Those events are about the cause and the people. Anyone who looks sideways at you based on a car isn't worth your attention. Looks like an awesome group.

Maybe I didn't make that clear enough John. I mean I've owned many domestics similar to the cars in that picture. They were nothing like my ZHP. Not the comparison I was making.

Love the wheels - are those same size as ZHP wheels and staggered?
(are they from a 135i ?)

Wash, that's Matt Shustack's old car. It has style 264. They are staggered.

18x7.5 +49
18x8.5 +52

thanks - yep style 264 is from the 135i
loads better looking than ZHP wheels, IMO ...might do that someday

I have updated the post. I put the wheel sizes in there.
Washburn

ah thanks - so they should be perfect for our staggered tire sizes - they do have real TPMS though (ours don't have real TPMS - just FTM) - wonder if that will be a problem...shouldn't be if they're removed I guess...
They're Much easier to keep clean too I bet.

I bet they do have the modern TPMS system on the wheels.

Notice how thin the front wheel is?
