Careful with those light weight coffee cups. I finished all but a sip of my coffee one morning, set it back in the cup holder, hit a bump and it slingshotted it out of the cupholder. Coffee drippings all over my shift knob, tragic start to the morning lol

Yay, alu FTW! To be honest I love the carbon leather but this has proven good enough to keep me happy.

Nope, I'm not talking about what happened when the cup was almost empty, I will not!

I can appreciate your strategic placement of spout away from center console, as well as vent and climate control/vent alignment/management.

Gas price hit $1.709 per litre today in Vancouver. That is roughly almost $5us per gal..... for regular. Can't wait to find out how much 94 is.

Not far off. Paid 1.70Euro for Shell 99 today. Ouch, luckily the M3 is light on petrol. Or something.

Ouch! I filled up with that sweet Florida 93 for $3.49 this morning...I feel for my California brethren!

Well, I feel for you until I look at the "wheels for sale" section of the forum...overpaying for substandard fuel must be your penance for having literally all of the cool rims for sale.

Yep, all the good parts listing are in California! Thinking about driving there with a truck, buying all I want and bringing them back to Nashville! Could even share the wealth with the east coast!

Good ol' oil change. First one after the S/C install (5k miles). It was pretty darn dirty.
