Haha, nice! And thanks, I've been slowly fixing it up from the beater it used to be. Still a bit more to go though! Your coupe was looking great

Nice man, it's definitely coming along great. Thanks, it has its moments. Lol. But more often than not, I hate the damn thing.

cops are out in force right now

Daaaaaaaaang. Had my ass ridden Wayyyyyyyyy too hard by a pre-facelift silver E46 330i going down 101 this evening... Another diamond lane opened up I gunned it and pulled away but.... Yeah... Bad form, dude... I gotta say. Doing your FATF thing through gridlocked rush hour traffic, not cool!

Had something similar happen recently on the LA 101. Ricer with stupid oversized rear wing all up on my rear, way too close for way too long at freeway plus speeds. I was in my very old 350Z at the time. Ultimately I gave him more of what he wanted, downshifting progressively from 6th to 2nd w/out using brake pedal. Crawled along at a stupid slow pace until he finally broke off and passed. Not sure what the whole point of that was. Never did anything aggressive to him nor did I hinder other traffic prior to that. Doubt he would have done the same if i was in my M. No matter what car you're in, there's always someone bigger and badder around the corner kidz

School's out, and BMW's are the new Civic.

Spotted a lowered hellrot e36 sedan on i80 through Vallejo.. Exchanged thumbs up, I was in my Alaska blue Ti..

101 North through Windsor, perhaps the most beautiful 3.0CS I have seen. Pretty sure the driver looked like the owner of the shop I go to.
Low-light dashcam screenshot does not do it justice.

Spotted a cosmos e36 m3 driving next to me for a while on Mathilda in Sunnyvale around 5 tonight. License plate was PRESRVE or something.

[E36 Em Tree]

Damn.. Wanted to follow a technoviolet(?) e36 M back onto 280 from Redwood City but I was in the wrong lane. Nice car!

[Coyoteh]

Hey, that's me! I actually took a picture of your ti right before I parked next to it. Awesome looking compact, man!

Was that you again tonight, it looked like? Pulled up and parked next to me at Dutch Bros Coffee while I was sitting in my car on the phone.

[poordna]

Ahhhhhhh totally botched it and set my Craphone to focus on my dashboard and windshield



Menlo Park like.... 30 minutes ago

A Z3 of some kind was also crossing the intersection towards that school but I missed it.

Sunday afternoon. Spotted black e36 lowered with black styles 5 on the side of road on 101 south with hood open. Hope he was ok.

[norcalb1mmer]

Spotted at 7pm on 880 south. OMG sexy black e36 m3 with hi rise with and black wheels. Nicely dropped with splitter and diffuser. Awesome car. I was in a black f30 and i almost broke my neck looking at the car. I then looked up and it was a cute chick driving it. Then i almost hit did not see traffic slowing down.

[psu325i]

saw a modded BMW of some sort about to go up Fish Ranch Rd tonight. I had just bombed down.

[poordna]

from this mornings shit commute

sounded good, taillights darkened slightly. Nice!!!

[Coyoteh]

White E46 M3 I've been seeing in Windsor lately, CSL trunk and I think CSL wheels. It looks beautiful.

[Coyoteh]

Valencia Orange 1M Coupe getting on southbound 101 from Guerneville Rd in Santa Rosa around 5:15pm. I gave a thumbs up through my sunroof when I passed, not sure if you saw me. Only the second time I've seen one in the wild, so much drool.

[MartyBtoo]

Evergreen Z3 Roadster westbound on Twin Cities Road in Galt,CA this afternoon; I was the Steel Gray M Coupe (Z3M) going the other way. I waved, but didn't know if you saw me.

Incompetent buttpumping shitstain in a black 328i with a missing rear plate (prob dealer plate) fucked me pretty hard today. Lane ahead of me was closed for construction. I had an opening to change lanes, I was indicating, but he sped up and cut me off. Honked, flipped him off, then gunned it as is standard procedure.
