Certainly a conversation starter. The best part of the comp pack is the exhaust. Braaaapgolfsedan16 wrote: ↑Tue Sep 25, 2018 2:03 pmmax225 wrote:

ANNNNNNND I got my first issue.
Drove 1500 miles last month... and I noticed an intermittent giant terribad noise in the back, LOUD enough to upset people on the street... and make them stare at my car....

Looks like rocks are getting caught in the rear left heatshield for me as well. It is super hard to reproduce as it is really intermittent. but it is annoying AF.

On one hand My car will be worth 56k(my lease end buy out) when I am "done" with it... and it comes pre-xpelled and pre loved by me... so I know the entire history etc... on the other hand, I don't really like black... and I have no idea how much it "should" be worth in a year as used cars have been APPRECIATING in the last two months... I confirmed what I saw with the official CPI.

Showed up at costco today for my tire appointment and had some major luck...
Waited 35 min for them to "look for my tires" which were delivered 2 weeks ago. Couldn't find em.... then it comes out they sent em back even though I have an installation appointment... now had to "re-order" tires. ppl... like how hard is this? I HAVE AN APPOINTMENT. I PAID FOR THE TIRES. Why the FUCK would you ship them back to another "warehouse"

So my candidates for my next car purchase are all over the board.
I'll try to separate by highly likely and unlikely.
Highly likely:
JL Sport or Rubicunt haven't decided which model due to the 20k spread between em.
Civic Sport - Still not out of my system
Baby dick F30 for around 20k as it would provide me with a cheap alternative to my current ride
Somewhat likely:
16+ Golf R
16+ GTI (i'd probably RR though, since I'd be going cheap as is)
Fuckus RS Still gotta drive one
Unlikely:
Buying out my current BMW: at 56k i'd have the entire history of the car, etc. But I don't like the quality of the paint, for this damn color, it chips way too easily, and 56k+ tax... seems like a yuge liability down the road.
99+ Landcruiser likely a shitty DD, too many issues and too old
Viper- if I get lucky with work or stock, which seems unlikely. I can't DD the vehicle and it would be nothing but a toy.
Continue rocking the crown vic ... it'll reach 400k this year!

That Civic Sport thing just makes me LOL. Yes it's practical. Look at all your recent decisions doe. You're making more money, and that is going into cars.

I am also driving more than anticipated. 99% of M3 owners/leasers don't load it up with 15-17k miles a year. it (Shitvic) is a very fun vehicle that is disposable to me (Shitvic).Desertbreh wrote: ↑Tue Oct 09, 2018 5:34 pm That Civic Sport thing just makes me LOL.

Buy it for 22k OTD. Drive the piss out of it for 4-5 years and sell for 15k with 80k miles and exactly 0 issues.
I actually really like the way this car looks also.

It was really a solid car though, I like these 'vics. The Si seats though...
