Wes,

Lol thanks for that! I've thought about it long and hard I'm not going to get a 335 so my next upgrade would be an e92 M3. Depending on when that is, when I can afford a new car, I don't know what my options will be at that point maybe a 1M, maybe the F3x M3, maybe a used Porsche 997 turbo, maybe an E92 M3 haha idk what I will want or what will be out at that time.

I want to move out and live comfortably before upgrading unless my car blows up and I get an awesome deal on one of the before said cars. So for the mean time I'm building the sickest, one of a kind 1er

Regarding the CEL on my Z4:
Ran the codes with the BT cable tonight

they were 02 sensor related

strange considering the car is stock... same codes i used to get in my 335i when i had catless downpipes

2C3A
29FA happened at 15464 at 2404 RPM
29F5 happened at 15469 at 2752 RPM
(took pictures of codes on my iPhone and not too clear)

today, at about 15550, the CEL light is gone

I'm loving the torque in the Z4 without question... but the S65 is just suchhhh a better engine.

It was actually so delicious I asked for the owner so I could tell him how great the food was. Plus it was extremely cheap...I have no clue why they are not charging more.

18855 Ventura Boulevard

Called BBQ Teriyaki?
I'm down to go
It has 4 stars

I usually don't either.... but sometimes it's good for all you can eat sushi

I think that's too much of a jump from a 135...
You should gradually upgrade... not jump so much
You won't appreciate the 997 Turbo

I had a 996 Turbo for a very short amount of time (10 days) before it was totaled (car was parked, i came back to the engine pushed in... drunk driver, Insurance paid in full)
I moved down to a 986 Boxster (Save money really)
and then the 335i to M3 (not really counting the Z4 as that was only 2-3 months, just like how I'm not including the CTS)

You'll appreciate the Turbo more that way IHO and my own experience.
Also, you'll be ready for the extreme power jump.
Having a high HP Porsche is much different than a BMW... Porsches are real driving machines. I love my M3, but it is no Porsche in regard to sports car performance.

You are not reading everything.. I see how it is
You fail

M_BYEEE · 04-20-2011, 01:04 AM

I guess I do fail lol I remember seeing that a little while ago now that you showed me that.

We will see when it comes time for me to switch cars. The cayman S has actually started to grow on me too. 997 turbo > m3. The practicality and maintenance costs of the Porsche are almost deal breakers.
I'll probably end up in a 2011 e92 ZCP haha

M_BYEEE · 04-20-2011, 01:06 AM

That Asian girl is hot, I would like to eat some Korean BBQ off of her

haha

On the real though let's go grab some of this Korean BBQ one night soon guys.

That's smart. Worry about moving out first. You have plenty of time to upgrade to a nicer car in the future.

I've never been to an all you can eat sushi place. Sushi is one type of food that I'm pretty picky about so I'd rather spend the extra $$ and go to a nice place.

It depends what I'm in the mood for really

I haven't ate anything here that can compare to Japan...

But sometimes, I just want crazy rolls and lots of it

Regarding Adam and moving out... it's a good idea but I guess I'm weird like that.. I rather live with my parents

We are looking for a new house (probably build one) and I am looking for somewhere where I will be able to live, but somewhat private

I want to build one since it'll be easier to achieve this.

I guess cause I'm Persian and we're very family oriented; I have lived on my own in the past and it wasn't too bad... but I never felt 'home' whenever I went to the dorm, or even when I was in an apartment..even when i had my gf waiting for me at home with dinner.
It just didn't feel 'home-y"

I'm not a big fan of rolls. Whenever I go for sushi, I just get nigiri. There are some very authentic places that are just as good as what you would find in Japan (I've been), but they're all in San Francisco lol.

There are some pretty good places down here, though. Not as good as SF, but good.

And I'm a family kind of guy, but I want to move out. It's time to leave and start my new life. Living at home is comforting, but I need to experience different things.

You can't compare SF to LA lol

I know there are some good ones down here; but I like my rolls :P

I guess living on my own (Well with my ex's) in Japan was enough different experiences for me for now lol

No, I didn't know that. I don't know anything about him, really.

Maybe if he came out to one of the Wednesday night meets... *cough*...

I've done a bit of traveling, but probably not as much as you guys. I love to travel, though. Learning about different cultures is my thing.
