I love Hockenheim, it reminds me of freshly poured cement (it also looks like “Pastel Black” ((matte white)) by dbrand). Monaco blue is nice, but looks best on Alpina cars.

I’ve been looking at one of these as my second car since I sold my track Miata back in July. This transmission, and color (or preferably the orange) are the only options I demand. That said, I’ve heard that there were some issues with the motors on the pre-2018 models. I can’t recall what they were, but this price is…

yeah, this is about the same size as an E46... which is to say PERFECT. 

Long Beach Blue, like Interlagos, Laguna Seca, and Estoril Blue (to name a few), and Silverstone Metallic and Imola Red, is in reference to race tracks or specific race series. In this case, the Long Beach Grand Prix

Heading to from LV to LA over Christmas vacation I saw some dumbasses in a broken down Honda Civic that decided the ENTRANCE to the runaway truck ramp was a great place to stop. It might be unlikely that a truck will need to use it, but NEVER stop in, or around a runaway truck ramp. Limp your car the extra 50-100ft to…

They wanted to reduce the occurrence of giving their customers instant diabetes.

Good Riddance. Chrome has had its day. Even on cars originally designed with it in mind, a flatter finish almost always looks better... also, it doesn’t blind your fellow drivers.

In the past, I would have agreed with you, but with the Audi E-Tron GT RS and Porsche Taycan, that’s just not the case anymore.

My 2007 BMW 335i had the N54 and it had a double vanos failure, water pump failure, AND the steering pump failure. That in addition to the electronic bullshit I ran into was enough to get the car bought back and returned to BMW. They actually offered to buy it back from me before I even pushed for it, they said that…

It’s just my wife and I and this would be replacing my Miata that I sold late last year so the back seats aren’t an issue. I also have a Jeep Grand Cherokee, so cargo area is of no concern (aside from a few medium sized suit cases). I just want a fun weekend and road trip car to run to Palm Springs, LA, the mountains,…

I’m referring to the F22/23/87 last generation, which 100% is available with a manual. Here’s a great example.

There are at least 30 of them

Do you know anything about how reliable the automatic is? I prefer the manual, but those are exceedingly hard to find. 

I’ve had two early 2000's BMW 3 coupes (330ci/335i) that were absolute nightmares, but from what I’ve heard, the new crop of I6 engines are a lot more reliable than their predecessors so much so that I’m considering a last gen M240 or M2. I’ll have to do some more research though. 

I’d definitely include “Stuff You Should Know” on this list. They were one of the first and easily the best, general knowledge podcasts out there. They’re also consistently ranked in the Top 10 on iTunes and is one of the most popular podcasts in the world.

I was just playing around with BMW’s M440 configurator and was pleasantly surprised when I discovered that they offer a pretty striking green on that car, called San Remo. (I also own a green Jeep Grand Cherokee Trail Hawk, so I’m partial to the color)

This will occur every time you apply the brakes, increasing the amount of braking force without needing to utilize as much hydraulic pressure. In reality, this will improve the longevity of the brake pads and discs, and will have literally zero drag on the car when not wanted. Even in the event that the battery needs…

Even boring grays can be improved. I had an ‘07 335i Coupe in Sparkling Graphite Metallic, and under the right lighting it looked like a dark purple. That, along with my Coral Red interior really made the car pop. Too bad it was a lemon. (not my car in the picture, obviously)

Definitely not a law in CA or NV.

My dad worked on the flight deck of an aircraft carrier in the 70's around A6 Intruders and F14s, and yeah, when they’re hot refueling and re-arming that’s the only precautions you got. Do not walk in front of the sucky bits
