So we have some nice watches. But what's everyone driving???
So I was on Bimmerfest.com today and there was a tread saying how obviously we all like high end quality cars, but what's everyone got on their wrist. Eventually the question was asked if there was a similar thread on a rolex forum someplace asking what the people there were driving so I figured I would be the guy to start that thread! So what's everyone driving????
Here's the link to the Bimmerfest thread http://www.bimmerfest.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=563020 |

Great looking cars. I bet the BMW seems so tame compared to the Vette. Hate to get OT but what kind of SC you running? You running meth? I've got an ECS Paxon unit, 8 rib, LG Super Pro's, forged bottom end, blower cam, meth, ZR1 trans, RPM diff, running 60# inj. now, with PFADT coil overs. I have a Z06 widebody kit and wheels ordered because I'm really needing more rubber (she will break loose at 70-75 mph very easily.) I'm thinking about going to a custom TT setup and swapping out to an auto transmission but we will see what the C7 offers. I like the TT's a little more because they seem to hit harder and are I would really like to get to 900-1000 RWHP sometime. I drive the car a little too much to have that much HP right now though. Still getting 30 MPG (well I have the ability but I get on it wayyy too much.) Gotta love it!!!!

Thanks. Yours also.
Its a Vortech T-trim with the stock A&A pulley, LG Pros. No meth yet but I will likely pulley down, add meth and get retuned this winter(Vette Drs). Still have the stock LS2, if I grenade it, I'll go with a forged 403 stroker. I have the A6 trans(bad knees) and am a little hesitant to up the ante to much. For my taste, 500-600rwhp is plenty for a street going car. Traction is so limited(even on 325's) and can whoop alot of exotics as is. Im happy with the centris linear power delivery with the high rpm rush, the TT's are great but thats alot of extra plumbing and I dont think I need all that low rpm TQ, again traction. There are many who sware by them thats for sure. You have a monster now and if you go that route, wow! |

That's exactly what the 1-series is for. I feel like it is one of the most pure driver's cars, made to just drive, regardless of a destination. I envy you! Someday...
I drive a 2002 Audi A4. Purchased almost 2 years ago with 43,000 miles, it's been great to me thus far and I'll drive it 'til it dies, but the power/weight ratio is horrendous. |
