Malthusian - looks great! I'm very tempted on the carbon splitters.

Did the inaugural wash this weekend. 20 minutes to wash the car, 45 minutes to wash these beautiful damn wheels...





Been trying to get used to the shifter/clutch in this car with mixed success. Jumped back in my Miata to run at Laguna Seca last weekend after a few days of M3 and couldn't believe how different it felt. The Miata clutch and brake were so hard/short that I thought something was wrong with my car...

My initial theory is that the light flywheel on this quick-revving engine does not work well with a long and somewhat rubbery shift throw. By the time I've rowed all the way from 2 to 3 the revs have dropped past a smooth engagement point. Anyway, after reading up on the topic I bought an F10 M5 knob. My first mod! Hopefully I can install that next week and improve my shifting...
