Have had my BMW M140i for 3 weeks now. Photo's taken after a 'new car detail' with Modesta glass coating.
3.0L 6 cylinder with 340 horsepower :)

Great car. I currently have a Golf R, but my previous car was a M135i. Only thing I'll say is be careful in the wet - I had a couple of low speed heart stopping moments. Enjoy :)

Had my fun, final photo before it goes it for a bit of minor paintwork, the motor rebuilt and the standard suspension/wheels refitted over the winter, as well as the factory stereo and a few other bits to get it back to factory.

Is that the new Velar? If it is? How are you liking it? My fiancé wants to get one in a year or two.

It is. I really like it. It's pretty great to drive and I think it looks awesome. Very modern. There are some ongoing issues with the infotainment software, and since everything is controlled via touchscreen, it can be frustrating. It's a new system though, so I'm sure a software update will improve it. I'll report back in a couple months.

looks great, what are they leasing for?
 
Here's some oddball Americana for you guys.

This is my 1987 Shelby Lancer that I've recently installed a Maserati 2.2L turbo into (DOHC 16v now.....very Euro).

I drive it to work everyday. It has a tiny turbo but it revs to the moon now compared to before. Plus it's just weird/rare now.

I hope I'm not the only one here that actually works on their cars. Because roadkill and such.
 
I've built a few engines myself from a bare block. It's fun. It's not that different than what I do every day (tile and drywall). There is a process and education involved. I shudder to think of anybody else working on my cars!

No software engineer here.
[doublepost=1514853325][/doublepost]Me and my Caliber SRT-4. It's been a great car and my only regret is getting the extended warranty which I never used.

You gotta wonder why people spend so much money on stuff like cars or anything material when this gets the job done. I regularly load the hatch with a tile saw, Durock sheets, and a multitude of other tools and got the job done. It's the ultimate road tripper too.

I keep thinking about doing more with mine myself but I'm really not that handy. I have in the past when money was a major issue and I didn't have much choice, but it's less of a concern now. However both my vehicles are over 10 years old and are starting to have more issues. One wouldn't start this morning and I'm hoping it's just the battery.
