It's been fun, but I am moving on...

I have known many of you for a while and we have had some good fun together. I think the most memorable moment was the group walnut blasting last year at my place...

I have sold my E90 and picked up a nice R35. I still have a garage full of BMW projects and am building an E28 chump car, so I am not leaving BMW altogether, but I will no longer be an E90 owner. Anyone who wants can add me on Facebook and in touch there https://www.facebook.com/SteveSanker

lol, it really was fun





Time for SP3333D to move on...

lol, yea, bought it and then promptly blew out one of the clutches at 150mph... Was gonna tear down the wrap when I get it back from the shop. Dont think I can get away with the matte green because of sun fade from the other layers, so I will probably go back to black paint while I decide what crazy wrap to put on it.

lol, yea, and it is because of statements exactly like that one that I am peeling the wrap as soon as I get it back from the shop! It WAS Waseem's car... now it is Steve's car!

Congrats on the new ride Steve. Can't wait to see the off-road video with the GTR.

Lol, you dont like the frozen black? I loved it, it was clean and stood out. I hated this wrap at first, but it has grown on me, kinda torn on pulling it, but it will forever be Waseems car if I don't change it.

Thank you. It's funny, I mentioned that to a few ppl in the GT-R community and they all shat bricks at the idea of one going in the dirt!

Yea, I scared myself a little the first time I got in and put the hammer down. This one is built up and throwing quite a bit more than stock power. Insane is a good word for it.

haha, no i meant the weird design on the GTR. the e92 m3 in the past with the weird green was a little much for me. you should get the frozen black paint on the GTR.

I didn't know you were the one who bought it. I knew it was someone, but didn't know you had an e90.
