Hey guys, The other day on the freeway, I took a 645 from 70-130, He had about 1/2 car to start and I had him by about 1 1/2 cars at 130, when we had to split ways. This was before my SSTT, On the freeway how would I stand against lets say a 2007 vette, non Z06

Do you get a free room?

Our company's consultant saw my color combo (montego blue and biege) and said it is a nice lady's car that won't catch the cop's attention.

I don't want to have a lady's car even though i'm a girl! That's it i'm going to mod it out!

Umm, only if i like standing in the unemployment line. Hahah! He's actually a really nice guy, but i think he just sees me as this innocent little girl.

Bimmerbaby · 09-13-2007, 09:54 PM

Unfortunately our garage is really small and have a column in the middle, so backing in is kinda hard, and to add on to that, we have a pretty big dip coming out the garage. Even stocked i roll out slowly. Oh, and i have to admit, i can't backup into a space for the life of me.

You can ask those at the walnut meet. Everyone backed up into the parking slot and spaced out so evenly, while i'm like 2 ft from the car next to me.

Though strangely i can parallel park decently.

you'll be ok, we have a big concrete pillar next to our parking spot in our underground garage, my wife navigates it fine. got faith in you

So far the lip is in great condition, at this rate, it'll be me that screws it up

OC Guy · 09-14-2007, 12:45 AM

!Xoible · 09-14-2007, 01:00 AM

im all up and running! you made me fill both cars today... ur too much peer pressure dude!

for some reason i cant fill more than 5 gallons in my G35. the pumps act as if the tank is full but it's less than half full. it's annoying! i tried more than one pump and in more than one gas station (all shells)

btw, G35 will go on Tuesday. they wanted to take it from me today, but i couldnt do it. i wanna have fun with it still

Hmm the fuel pump thing, i had that same problem.
There was a TSB on it i believe with the older cars. On top of that, my fuel gauge wouldn't read 100% full at times. Had all that done and never had a problem again. good thing it's going bye bye
