One of the most entertaining sights was watching what looked to be a 16 year old try a parallel part his new GTO between a Ferrari and a Corvette. The spot was plenty big enough but he had to have worked at it for close to 10 minutes...and still it was messed up. If the owners of the other two cars would have been watching I'm sure they would have s**t. Guess that isn't a skill taught these days in driving school?

I brought my M3 up to the last fast Fridays. It was in the back, it's an 08 Jerez Black metallic. I just got it from up in Lincoln and I love it. It has a carbon fiber roof and trunk and has an updated ecu and borla exhaust as well as an AC Schnitzer suspension. I'm in love with it, and I'd love to meet any of you guys if you're up at FF! I'm usually just chillin by my car after I look at everything.

Congratulations on your purchase and welcome to the forum.

I beleive I saw your car at FF...if it was the all blacked out M3 including the rims. Great looking car!

And if you were parked in the back than you must have witnessed that incredible parking exhibition by that GTO.

I just heard that Aristocrat Motors is having some sort of carshow this Saturday. Looks like you have regester your vehicle to even attend? Could be some nice cars there. I will not be ablke to attend...but this is the link if you are interested.

http://aristocratcarshow.eventbrite.com

This is their event description:
We are a car dealership, right? Why not host a car show?! If you’ve got it, bring it. We will be hosting everything from super exotics to vintage classics, and even the daily drivers. RENNtech performance will be sending their World Record Holding Mercedes-Benz C63AMG drag car. Last, and definitely not least, the legendary Formula One Champion, Sir Stirling Moss, will be joining the festivities, answering questions, and signing autographs.

Saw The Tech on the road today.....man what good looking car. Finally got to hear it too and damn it sounds good. Got service done today and there was a Frozen Black M3 getting service done as well. Dealer also said there is a Frozen White in the area as well with the carbon fiber package and black wheels so be on the lookout for that.

Was at Baron today and there was some cool stuff. There is a Lime Rock that they are prepping for sale, and there was also an E46 in the basement in Phoenix Yellow. Dealer also said a Frozen Blue was in a week ago so that means there is a Frozen Blue, Black, and White in the area even though I'm yet to see any of them.

Coming back

Just wanted to drop a line and say hello. I am flying out this week to get a 2011 e90 m3 from salt lake and bring it back to lees summit.

A little of my history. I was a BMW car club member from 95-2010, have attended two Surface of the Sun track days, did the M School in SC in 2003 and have had an e36 M3 (95), a (97), and a 2002 e46 M3. I sold that in 2010 with the intention of getting a used e90 at some point and finally that day has arrived.

I also used to autocross with both Crown and SCCA but have not done either in years.

I have been tying to get up to speed with all of the mods currently out and I am overwhelmed by all of the choices. I do not remember there being this many on my choices on my e46.

One of the first will be coding and I spoke to Mike at bpm today who is a great resource. He mentioned about reaching out to The Tech so that I can start my learning curve.

Again I just wanted to say Hello and I welcome advice.

Thanks.
