How does the carbon fiber genital cradle feel

I kind of love the new BMW front ends in person, without a front plate, and in the right color. It’s somehow less offensive to me than the last 15 years of BMWs*, and I say this as a long-time lover of the brand and E46 owner. *except the 1 and 2 series, I like those

I joke about how ugly it is, but actually think it's the best looking BMW front end. Now excuse my while I duck out of the way.

I saw one at the dealer yesterday and sorry but the front end is even worse in person, it's like a guy from the props department for a medium budget sci fi movie who's never designed a car before wanted to make a villains car look evil AND futuristic! Notwithstanding, the interior is very cool and I absolutely love those carbon buckets and wish my m2 had them or at least a funky color, all black is boring imo.

I've thought about selling my ND2 with those options, but all the trade-in calculators and Carmax/Carvana/etc. estimates don't have that package listed, so the offers I get are not that great.

In all honesty, I am looking at ND2 Miatas with the Recaro package so DM me or something if/when you list it for sale.

NitroSpazzz posted:There should be, I know when I was looking for one years ago they demanded a bit more. That's a special enough car it's worth taking a little time to post it here or to enthusiast group instead of carvana/carmax/etc and you'll probably get more. If love to know where you're getting these quotes from. Everyone I've talked to about moving the Subaru has quoted $1.25-1.50/mile for open transport.

I used Sherpa Auto Transport to move the Cayman across the country, 2450 miles enclosed for $2400. Open transport was going to be around $1500 but the car didn't have enough ground clearance for that to work. I also have a broker I've used in the past, PM'd you their information slack. Didn't use them this time because she was on vacation and didn't get back to me until after I had everything lined up. NitroSpazzz fucked around with this message at 10:28 on Sep 2, 2021 |

I had to replace the parking brake cables in the corolla (because apparently they care about that for rallyx (and i want to turn it into a daily)), but nearly every 6mm bolt broke off. I fixed the parking brake cable lock down things like this: I have very few fucks when it comes to this stupid thing.  self-drilling screws FTW.

I did something stupid, but not in a good way, because I am an idiot. Bottomed out the front driver’s side and busted off some clips holding the front fascia in place Gonna take it to a local place to see if they can repair it with some adhesive of some kind, otherwise the whole loving front bumper needs to be replaced. lmao, I such a loving dunce.

 2021 Giulia Super, base model (200 hp petrol AT8) with no options. It’s been fun although it sounds like dirty diesel on low revs.
