You know I'm going. The question is, to show or spectate? Can't wait!

For sure. The thing with Bimmerfest is that you pay $20 per car no matter how many people you have inside it and park inside the show anywhere you wish. This way you are showing and spectating at the same time.

how can I tell? I honestly don't even know. I bought in April of this year..

*edit*

looking at the burger tuning site, pretty sure it's a g4.. I don't remember having an onboard downpipe fix.

*edit edit*

on that note, letting it go for 300 to locals.

I need to do some 3 and 4 gear data logging

Finding a decent safe stretch of road is not as easy as I thought

I've honestly considered pulling off to the shoulder of the 215 in the wee hours just to get it done

I'm going to call spring mountain motor sports next week and see what the damage would be to use their track

If anybody has any better ideas fill me in

I've logged on the beltway before. It's safer to have a passenger start/stop the logs so you can focus on the rpm and road.

R.G. · 01-26-2013, 10:59 PM

I never even thought about having a passenger help me
Great idea

DJJimGreen · 01-28-2013, 04:08 PM

Can anyone give any advice on black lining the window sills? I really want to get it done, but don't even know the process...

EJ_3 · 01-28-2013, 05:07 PM

Anyone interested in going to this?

Another option is to buy OEM 328i trim as it comes in matte black or shadow line depending on what you want. I got rid of all my chrome window trim that came on my 335 for trim that was installed on the 328.

Sure its a hell of a lot more expensive up front but its perfect and not cheap looking like tape/plastidip after a few years.
