The B58 in my wife’s M40i has a ton of character and is a hoot to rev. My M54 was great. Her old N52 was pretty good. Skipped over the N54 and N55, but the B58 is a return to greatness. Especially with an M Performance exhaust. 

Had an 04 ZHP Sedan. Didn’t have to replace cooling system while I owned it(09-16 75K miles) somehow. But did have to replace a lot of the rubber intake boots and valve cover gasket. It wasn’t too bad to work on at all. I imagine if I would have kept it and drove it more in the later years of ownership I would have

Mine was grey interior too. Silver cube trim. Alcantara steering wheel was in pretty damn good shape. A-Pillar cloth was sagging like sleeve of wizard though.

I had an 04 ZHP sedan in Silver Grey and it was fantastic. Completely stock and it sounded great, was fairly quick and handled well. The Red is striking. EAS? has a few on autotrader for $30k or something crazy like that but they look sooo good still.

That really is a beautiful color.

The software on my truck tries to tell me all the time to keep my hands on the wheel, while my hands are on the wheel... Have to wiggle the wheel to let it know that I’m still there.

Those are good looking wheels. I’m so glad that they’re not black or have some sort of black background.

Automatic headlights - Standard

It was really great to have the whole race commercial free. Only problem I’ve had so far is that the DVR schedule for qualifying is about 30 mins too short on my DirecTV. Something I can manually fix, I know. 

It’s good shit in my wife’s SUV. RWD biased, 4.6s 0-60.

I’m pretty sure that’s a lambo. 

QX4s were my thing. Two tone, HID headlights with that oval projector thing. 3 spoke wheels. I want to say some of them had radar cruise control... in 2001.

Right, but what if they would have kept making/developing the SR20DET? It was FWD/AWD and RWD and made really good power for the time. Seems like they had to start from scratch after abandoning those motors for NA 4s and V6s during the 2000s

I know. Though, I can’t imagine it’ll ever happen again. BMW with their modular inlines 1.5l 3 2l 4 3l 6 effectively ruins that idea. 

I didn’t know this existed. I’ve always been interested in the RB20DET and now this. Really would like to know how they drive.

It’ll definitely be a B58. They are great engines. 

Are you still contributing, Peter?

Except for the fact that I’m pretty sure Haas manufactures their own wheels. 

They look a lot like BMW SUVs from a year or two ago. They have since fixed that issue as of 2018s

I Think that’s where my wife’s old E83 X3 was built as well. They work on a ton of different cars there and have been for a long time. Nothing wrong with that at all.
