i know it was a free test drive, but i guess i rather work since i'm not on PTO yet..

Crimson92 · 05-29-2008, 07:19 PM

i have the event on sat...sounds like fun

snohman · 05-29-2008, 07:20 PM

yeah definitely, my kw v2's felt "soft" even compared to the EDC set on sport. maybe on a stiffer setting and w/ some sway bars, it would start to get close, but it was no contest...

driving my e92 home from the event, I was like damn this difference was like when i went from stock sport suspension to my KW coils

2SwiFt29 · 05-29-2008, 07:21 PM

have fun Juan

hey steve, do you have a oem m3 spoiler on your car? and what size wheels are you running?

snohman · 05-29-2008, 07:24 PM

i will also say the throttle and the whole car in general was a lot more responsive with the 20k miles on the clock. I couldn't believe it was the same car I test drove a while back. I guess not having a salesperson in the car with you does help

We were sitting at the dealership eating the free lunch (lasagna, and such), and the M3 was just sitting in the garage while all other cars were going out constantly. I guess you can just come drive all the normal X, Z, 3, 5 series cars w/o a reservation, but i noticed my name on the reservation list for the M3 was way off to the side..kind of indented from the rest of the list. I heard other people asking if they could drive it, but they wouldn't let them... Pretty cool event....took her up through griffith park and the LA Zoo, had a cop tail me for a little bit, and even heard some people saying "I'd drive that car for sure..." and lots of stares. a couple 5 series trying to catch up to me on San Fernando road to catch a glimpse

Fun day

I wanted to go on Saturday, but all of the slots are filled already. I just went to get the $750 coupon towards a new Lexus, lol. I'm happy I went today and kinda early at that. Our class only had 10 people so that meant more driving time!

I thought I saw Steve when I was leaving..a white lowered E92. But when he parked, they weren't ME's, the wheels were BBS CH's, lol.
