Did you take the car out on the track Carbon? Looking good dude!

haha hes just a street2strip boy now, no more turns:rollsmile:

the E30 CSL does very low 12s apparently (confirmed) but ive heard rumours its even lower than that now. but we should be seeing it on our S2S nights soon.

Good going there buddy... Glad you kept it on the black stuff this time.

Great to hear that the put-together is a superb one! :thumbs:

Car is looking stunning!

Whats it like staring out of a BMW Windscreen onto a Blue BMW bonnet again?

I think some 1M rims are in order! :thumbs:

Love the steering wheel, gear lever pouch and the stubby gear lever! You should do the instrument cluster binnacle is suede to match, make it really 1M'esc!
Then you can put an N54 in! :joy:

What is that module in front of the gear lever, right by the lighter compartment?

Its great staring out the BMW. Dont miss the courtesy car, and dads 2 merc's.

The rims are the last thing on my shopping list. Gonna do everything else first

I was thinking of doing the engine change but dont have 50k spare lying around.

Its the park distance controller :roflol:

Carbon, rather get yourself a cheapy for the track days. :thumbs:

 

[3V0M-WP]

I'm planning on doing that. Won't take Carbon back on the track days

 

[Coisman]

imp:
Yip, thats the better option.
Unfortunately you learned your lesson the hard way. :thumb:
