Came here to say this, was not disappoint.

I don’t care that they are trying to call a sedan a coupe yet again. I need this in my life.

Keep in mind that the 335hp number is almost assuredly wildly under-rated. The B58 in the M240i(which is likely what the Supra will have) is rated at 335hp but dynos at ~370 at the crank and is rated at 339 lbs-ft, but dynos at ~415. For the most part BMW turbo engines are outputting their claimed crank power at the…

iirc BMW is using it in the dashboard support bar for the i3 & i8, along with a few other hidden places.

Actually I think that second one is Estoril blue, which is not a custom order, but it does require the M sport package. The yellow one is custom though.

Individual color has been an option for BMWs for decades, it’s not just limited to the M5 either. You can get your car in nearly any color you want with them.

Well, Dinan is already up to 426hp & 463lbs-ft with just a chip on the 340i(should note those numbers require the 340i already have the factory m-power kit, otherwise they are at 412/438).

it’s dual sequential twins, i.e. 1-3 has a little turbo that gives way to a big turbo at higher RPMs and 4-6 has the same thing.

Knowing our government, it will probably result in an amendment raising the voting age to 25 so they don’t have to worry about getting voted out by the “angry kids.”

e46 323, 325, 328s plus the e39 525 and 528 all use the same MAF as a 99-01 Hyundai SONATA 2.5L. If you buy it as a Hundai part its $150, as a BMW part it’s $300-$400. 

I was under the impression that this is true of most cars. The drivetrain alone out of my car is probably worth more than the car itself.

Up until I was too old to join, my fallback was the Air Force or the Navy. Probably Air Force as I can more carefully craft my career to avoid being deployed somewhere shitty.

I swear he looks like he was ripped right out of the Hunger games as a Capital City extra.

correct, but you still negotiate the purchase via a dealer, or at least that’s how BMW does it. As I understand it the car is basically just set up as a custom order but instead of being loaded straight onto a car carrier, it’s picked up by the owner at the factory in Germany. After that it still gets loaded onto the…

I always thought that was a terrible place for it. It’s completely out of view when you are driving the car and I’d bet quite a few people don’t even know it’s there.

probably so they don’t end up with blanks on the cars that don’t have the heated steering wheel.

Virtually all of your acceleration in a rocket is done horizontal to the ground(or close to horizontal). Remember, just to orbit the rocket needs to be going 17,000 mph relative to the ground. Rockets only travel in the vertical direction during the early stages to get through the more dense lower atmosphere faster.

Sorry I 100% missed that. The article showed up in my feed and I didn’t see the date on it.

Bringing a lawsuit against someone does not make him guilty. Neither does settling it. There are plenty of reasons to settle a lawsuit where you did nothing wrong. One may be that you go to the other party and basically say “this never happened, you know it never happened, and if this proceeds to court you will be…

It may not be. I6's suffer from a little bit of cam whip(thats where the cam is essentially wobbling due to it’s length), I8's went out of favor because of this and packaging issues. I’d imagine an I12 would have a nasty amount of cam whip and would have to be kept a fairly low RPM lest it rip itself apart.
