Been a few years but would like to get a new wheel/seat setup.

What are you using for the matching backlighting? I'd really like to do that in my theater room.

Cheapo Amazon LED light strips, like $15 each. They're controlled by remote, i don't change them very often- aside from creating a cool ambiance, it makes watching TV and movies at night a bit easier on the eyes.

Gotcha, thanks. That's actually my Plan B but I'm hoping to find something that changes with the image on the screen. I'm guessing that costs 25x more than the Amazon ones.

Here's one, price isn't too bad either. I may do something like this when I upgrade my TV https://www.dreamscreentv.com/product/dreamscreen-hd/

Nice! That price isn't too bad, but I'll have to talk to my installer buddy to get him to fish an HDMI cable under the floor to the screen. Thanks for the info!

If I want to play a game I just get an F loaner. Pretty fcuking close though I think the PS4 controller has more steering feedback an my couch is a lot more comfortable.

Bemo hates the F series even more than I hate rear sun shades on an M3.

Consistency bro - I love it.

Yes Sir! We gotta kick 'em in the nuts so they start putting out quality product!
And don't get me started on the electric steering in the Porsche! What dafuq were they thinking?? Idiots.

I'm a loser because I rev'd my engine a tad while pulling out of driveway this morning. Sorry guys for being such a schmuck.

I would love to, but iRacing doesn't have the E92 M3. Closest they have is the Z4 GT3 (E89) car, though it does run the M3 GTS P65 engine stroked to 4.4L...

Similar story here, GT Sport didn't have any E9x M3 prior to the most recent update, so I had to "settle" for its ancestor and its cousin.

OMG...that 80's Apple livery!!!
Reminds of when we were selling my parents' old home a couple of years ago and while cleaning out the basement, I found our Apple II+ computer from 1982 in a closet. Sadly, it didn't work because moisture had corroded the motherboard. First computer we ever owned...
