I'm Baaaaaack.....

Most of you won't remember me, but I previously owned an Evo 8 GSR, which I had sold for a BMW.

Yesterday I sold my 1988 E28 M5 for a 2006 Evo 9 MR.

OMG how I have missed the Evo....


Never again guys.... Never again.

It's good to be back.

The M5 was tons of fun in itself, but with the lack of good gas mileage and power, wasn't enough to stay my buying hand.

Comparing the 06 to the 05, significant difference. With the edge going to the 06. I can't believe how these Bilsteins feel.

I'm not an old school bimmer kind of guy. I'm an Evo guy.

That thing wasn't that fast anyway. It uses the Bosch Motronic engine management with a potentiometer for air metering.

pardon for the stupid question but: where would you drive your M3 all the way to 180? do you live near the Autobahn?

I liked it because I followed the series... and Charlize Theron kicking *** in a skin tight suit is always nice. But some people didn't like the movie.
