Enjoyed the warm weather and went for a cruise to cross the devil's number on the odometer. Idk if that's a thing, but it sounded cool in my head.

I did this a few years ago in my M6. Played number of the beast as soon as it rolled over \m/
I haven't been driving it much, so I burned about 1/2 tank today just driving around the Tampa area. I revved out 4th gear at one point and over the 4 hours of drive time it didn't miss a beat. Ran into an X5M on the freeway that wanted to run but traffic wouldn't let that happen, maybe next time. Also picked up a bunch of detailing supplies while I was out.
Got these today, now to find time to install them.

I put a used set of those on my 08 back in 2013. Still on the car. Read up on how to preserve suspension travel.

It's weird so many places sell hr springs but all semi different prices from within -+30-60
Did a quick shoot at the harbor. Car was dirty, but I was in the area.

I was hoping it would be pretty cloudy. Pics get super washed out.

Went with Sport and I found these new for $269 shipped! I plan on getting them on by next weekend hopefully to report back.
Fixed my HiFi Bluetooth. I am so tempted to take her out to play in the snow!

Slight curb rash on Thursday, fixed on Saturday; plus some other wheel-wear touch-ups. All is right with the car again.
Did the DCT adaptation in Ista+, apparently the car needed it more than I thought. Shifts felt great, wouldn’t say like new but definitely made me fall in love with the DCT again.
Played around with my new 360° cam! Took some trial and error to find the best mounting point, but I'm pretty happy with the outcome.

Here's a quick uphill/downhill clip with some spirited throttle:

Here's a highway cruise (not the greatest in low light) with audio from the engine bay. Not terrible, but I had the input levels too high and ended up with some distortion at WOT. Still need to play with mic placement and potentially add a second mic at the other end of the car.
Not with (because I have like 4 inches of snow today with 6 added on top tomorrow), but future too my M3....

....I ordered the Pinnacle Motorsport Undertray.

I have been meaning to get a undertray for the longest time as mine has chunks missing. A lot of the people I follow in the E9x world have gone the Pinnacle route, so I ordered it from him.

What!? You can get solid subframe mounts from most of the other companies for under $300 USD shipped! Cancel that order!!
VAT is deducted when you checkout. It's still a little more than others for understandably no difference, but I've done dumber things. :)

A once in a lifetime experience - glad I was crazy enough to do it.
Car looks great, awesome photo! What tires are you on there?

Indeed! I had to stop for a pic as well. But my car's a bit embarrassed to strut here after RoastBeef and Epoustouflant's, they're tough acts to follow. At least I'm on a new page now.
