AKAIK a clutch is considered a wearable item, and is almost never covered under warranty unless (like it did in my G35C) fails prematurely due to a known manufacturing issue.

I had to google that. I’m glad I did. Wish my E90 farted like that.

only 2 pedals? CP

Now that the M2 is reality, they really need to drop the ‘M’ from the 240i:

Yeah, the patient made it through that ok, but the EMT in back monitoring his/her vitals is going to bounce around like a blood bag in a clothes dryer.

Except when Miata is the answer.

Agreed, I only worked on the -701C motors, but in the cold I can't see the extra 500 lbs making a difference. The new delta motors have even better specs. Worst case scenario is a rolling take off if they're loaded for bear. That was SOP in the summertime in KY and NC.

I wonder how much the performance profile has increased for missions in the cold. Colder, denser air: more fuel and munitions. Especially compared to the missions they’ve been flying over the last 20 years in the sandbox.

That’s when you pay the valet and tell them to jump in shotgun to direct you where to park the car. They don’t like it and they’ll think you’re a dick (a good tip helps with that), sometimes you have to involve the manager, but avoids the car being brought back to you in a cloud of clutch smoke.

Soooo big. I parked my E90 next to 2015 F30 and it was like I was parked next to a 5er

As long as this doesn’t negatively affect Napelton’s Porsche dealership in Westmont, who gives a shit?

freeing Americans from the overbearing tentacles of the British.

These would look better in a matte finish, perhaps even in darker shade like gunmetal.

This must be a pre-production model, it’s missing a pedal

Swapping the O2 sensor will be super easy

If they actually made a V16 Corvette I would consider murdering a basket full of kittens to get my hands on one.

tl;dr: beige. don’t buy.

I should have qualified my statement. Obviously the Q50 and the Maxima are not on the same platform, but they’re both nearly as beige. The Q50 is now slightly less beige. It needs a 6MT if it aspires to not be beige at all. Oh and they should release a long roof variant with brown as an exterior color option.

I know the listing says manual, but that looks like a slush-o-matic shifter.

I had a G35C 6MT for a decade. Loved it. Switched to an E90 when the G was all clapped out because the Q50 was milquetoast.
