    Will be getting the mpars once I address a few other items... unfortunately, those tires are practically new. Yes, Cosmoschwartz!

    Good choice for sure. Although in Florida maybe a bit against the norm!

    some days. But I use our Escalade as a true daily. The Prefacelift is more of a summer time weekender. She’s getting up the in mileage at 192k. So she takes it’s easy.

    A few pics with new suspension. Not as low as I would like, but maybe in time. Rides smooth.

    The suspension won't settle any further than after the first drive unfortunately. That is a myth that they will settle more over time. Did you ever confirm whether you installed the I or II springs?

    Windows tinted and a long, long list of maintenance/upgrades along the way. I’ll be making a journey thread after this coming weekend when I do correction

    Washed the old girl (rare occasion). She is a 20 footer that needs hard core cut and polish.

    Do you ride with windows down? Exhaust might come into interior. I had that problem with my old Datsun 510 until I lengthened the tip a tad.

    I did not notice any change since I recessed the tips windows up or down. Been driving with this ghetto mod since april.

    Haven't really driven it in pretty much a year now, just been too hard to afford to do the rego and tyres and such to keep it on the road with everything else going on in life. But in a month or so I think it will finally be back on the road. Made the effort to at least get it started, give it a clean, pump up the tyres, and take it for a squirt down the road (not very legally mind you but I'm in a very quiet area here). Drove wonderfully Like I only parked it a week ago. Rats made a nest out of the space in front of the oil filter, had a little chew of my HID harness but thankfully didn't go through the insulation anywhere. Engine bay stinks of hot rat piss so it's going to be a day long job of back breaking cleaning when I finally do put it on the road

    Happy to hear Sobek! Mice tried moving in on my car, I've set traps around the car and in the engine bay, 14 mice so far in two weeks. Nothing for the past 2 days, I BELIEVE I'm successful. Fortunately these guys just take old shop towels and such to make a nest, they haven't touched the car at all.

    2000 750iL
    New to Portland and relatively new to BMW life. We just purchased this delightful 2000 750iL and are eager to get her lined up and back to working order. I've had an E38 previously and have trolled the boards here for a couple years in total. I love this place for all the helpful folks and plethora of useful advice. I think I've done my due diligence and read everything related to this car however if anyone has any helpful advice I'd be happy to take it on. Additionally, for anyone local to Portland I'd be happy to buy a few rounds in exchange for some tutelage. Thanks and cheers!
