Default New V2 daily for me

Well I had the V1; https://ls1tech.com/forums/cadillac-...er-2006-a.html, but it just wasn't quite "there" for me. Since the V1 I've had a slightly modded 335i, and the X5. The 335i was fun, but not quite "enough" in the power department, about as equivalent as the V1. I was stuck between the V2's and an S5 as the next car, but the power level on the S5's just don't justify the purchase.

I bought this car from a buddy, he was obviously the first owner, and it has everything but NAV. 19k on it, 09, 6 speed with Recaros. So far I love it.














The car is super clean, and knowing him personally, it was babied. I don't have many mods planned, the GT-R is kind of forcing me into a whole build. It'll more than likely just get some wheels, and crank and blower pulley and a tune.

Great looking V2, hard to beat a black car with dark tinted windows.

I don't know you personally, but I've read through some of your builds and I'm calling BS on this. I fully expect to see "Trust's compound boost V2" thread within the next 6 months

On top of it all, TX/OK region is experiencing what is called near drought conditions. Neighborhoods all over have signs with "Level 2 Water Conservation".

Nah, not when it's making 800whp on a stock bottom end and lots of 5th gear.

Haha. Definitely an "I told you so" moment.
