Soon to move to Olympia Area
Hey guys, thr fam and I will be relocating to the Olympia area within the next 6 months from Spain. Just wanted to find out how I should prepare.
1: How are the roads? I'd planned to upgrade my suspension but that was when I was bound for Germania. ![]() 2: which dealerships should I use/avoid? I will need to reflash my Nav as I currently have European maps. 3: Is there a reputable indy shop in the area? 4: does it snow there? if so are the roads salted? 5: Is there an active BMW driving club that doesnt consist of 20yo street racers? 6: is it hard to get diesel there? This I'm sure isnt a prob but I always like to hear from locals.

And you r maybe 30-45 minutes from the new track at The Ridge if you want to play legally. Check out the puget sound BMW club too. Fairly active w some fun drives. There's usually some winter snow and most folks in western WA don't know how to drive in it.
