My Camaro on its stock tires is awful and nearly uncontrollable with anything more that 1/2 inch of snow, but my Z4 on all season tires is amazing, even with the lack of ABS and traction control. It’s like a happy puppy smashing through snow drifts and plowing the road (because it’s about 3 inches off the pavement.) Pe…

I feel like I’ve been a responsible modder. After I reached a certain age I’ve looked into, read online and more or less did a lot of research before changing something and I’m happy with my two cars.

Those rims look like they came from a Lego Technic set. I’m not complaining.

I have a friend who says the same thing when we are skateboarding. He never does “one last” anything before we leave the parks. I still haven’t learned and always do one last anything…

While I am not an audiophile I do appreciate it when something sounds good. I’ll never forget the joy I experienced after buying my first pair of quality headphones and realizing there were melodies and harmonies in some of my favorite songs that I never hear before. Still, I use a (higher end) Bluetooth receiver to…

That puts things in perspective very well for me. We had a couple of 95 Accords and I grow up looking at that dash. I had to do a reread the title because I assumed that car was from the 80’s. The airbag should have reminded me though. What a difference there was. Even our 91 Accord feels so much more modern after…

My wife and I are liking this car more and more. My 5th gen Camaro is starting to get up there in years and I see a lot of similarities between the two. Heavy, probably hard to see out of and not practice- but I made a promise never to compromise when I buy a car. First thing  I would replace the side markers with…

I won’t be able to purchase this car, but as the owner of a 5th generation Camaro I really like what the did to update a classic look. I think they took a big risk by not making it look totally wild and kept it a bit subtle (for a Lamborghini) while showing the roots and appreciation to a past well known model. From a…

Hold up, what if that is the actual reason? I have a manual transmission in my Z4 and my wife (and even my 70 y/o mom) can drive it when she wants to. However, when my wife and I talk about getting a classic car she said sure, as long as it’s an automatic. I don’t know if I want to own a classic car with an auto……

Now that it a good point. Spend time in two countries and have a car in each. Overseas where I spend most of my time I wouldn’t mind (my wife) owning an electric car (I won’t get rid of my Camaro no matter how much she dislikes it).

I love my brembos and even though they are mis matched on my car, I only paid a little over $100 for brand new front calipers from a Cadillac and around the same for some lightly used rear calipers from a Camaro SS. They are lighter (yes, I used a luggage scale to check) and more efficient than the stock single piston…

Yes, but no. I had an unexplainable connection to cars, like knowing the model and brand before I could read, but may parents care more about economy and value by the time I was born. However, my dad preferred manual transmissions and enjoyed driving, he used to let me shift for him on the back roads when I was still…

Thanks for sharing. That was an epic trip and a great read.

The compressor is built in but maybe next time I can MacGyver some hoses to connect the mattress to the vacuum bags and try it out!!

I should mention that I’m over 6ft tall as well… the good thing about having a convertible is when I bought a rug from Home Depot I just put the top down and strapped it in the passenger seat. Along with the shovel I bought. Because it was snowing in December in Michigan… and I was in summer tires… I’m not really…

My wife and I did an epic 20+ state mostly camping road trip in my lowered and modded 2003 Z4 and were extremely comfortable the whole time. We had a nice tent, inflatable mattress, bedding as well as cooking utensils, toiletries and enough outfits to look good for the whole time on the road. The trick was to use…

How do we know that someone didn’t go back in time to stop this exact thing from happening? Imagine if American Motors went world wide. Its bad enough that Coke Cola and McDonald’s has started to take over the world with American influence. I think that someone went back to give little VW a chance to make a positive…

I live abroad and the movie came out last month here. My wife and I saw it in 3D and few weeks ago and we’re blown away on how awesome it was.

some snapshots from the loft at my friends shop. They were doing a photo shoot there while I was getting an oil change.  

Email sent, may not have gone through. I did see the manufacture’s name is Wey and they call it the ‘Tank 300’ but somehow I don’t think that’s accurate.
