You like what you like - don't change it due to other opinions.

At the end of the day, it is you that has to be absolutely in love with it. That is why I am straying from the turbo WS6 idea.

I didn't know Heater picked up a Camaro!

Agreed, fixing other people's issues sucks.

Was it made of gold for $265? I paid $125 installed last time I replaced a windshield on my Camaro.

You know the person who entered it into the system to have that plate made was laughing his *** off.

$265 was the cheapest place installed around here. 28 year old car problems, I guess

Who did you have to make out with to get it for $125?

From what I have heard the 35's can run ~13.3@103-105 and the Ms can run low 13s @ 107ish.

Somebody correct me if I am wrong.

Oh yeah, I just remembered this. My professor last night was ******* on BMW 1 series cars. I piped up and said the 135i's can be respectable with a few mods.

I got looked at as if I started speaking in tongues?

His response was that if you're going to get a BMW, don't get a 1 series.

If he wasn't my professor and didn't decide my grade at the end of the class, I would've kept on...but I bit my tongue.

Just a local glass place around here. New, not OEM nor a blem, but new aftermarket.

In KY as long as you have comprehensive coverage you can get a new windshield for free. Get some.

I agree, no Jake stripe. The JSB is all you need. It's an awesome color!

Evo....


Lambo.....
Ouch on both! Especially the Lambo... You could pic up 5 built Evo's for the cost of that motor alone!

Sounds like one of my pompous fraternity brothers. His rents each own a 7 series and he made that comment once before. Just because it is a 1 series car doesn't mean it isn't made with quality and doesn't mean they have poor performance.

I joined Aug of 08 and graduated HS May of 09. While that may seem like forever ago, total it will be 4-1/2 years in school for a double major in Finance and Accounting. Took one semester off for an internship and didn't take any summer courses - that is why it has taken the full 5 years. I didn't come in with a lot of college credit. If I was a year younger I would have came in with a **** ton of credits due to all of the business classes I took in HS and my HS finally merged credits with local CC.

Ohh well dude, I'm done in May.

Any courses I take from now on will be paid for by my employer Only have 2 courses left to sit for the CPA and my employer can pay for those through online courses. I'm done footing the bill and will be graduating with no debt (THANK GAWD)

If it was still the 6.0 I would agree but the new 6.7L is a beast.. Besides if I was gonna tow with something other than a Ford it would be a Dodge. Chevy trucks seem to lack the power needed to tow heavy loads.
