I knew I liked that bloke in the first car video I saw him in. A true car guy, a true gear head. What am I going to color those rubber mounts with to make them black...

That film is brilliant. Absolutely brilliant!

Awesome vid...........Chris is a riot......

He mentions color- after seeing it myself in the flesh AW really is (along with *******the best color for this car. The Jet one I saw did nothing for me but AW......it's the best.

Funny too, because Jet was my favorite for the E46 "M".

He forgot to mention to bring a friend with a camera so that he can document what a car nut you really are!

Looking forward to the next episode...

loved the video and he is a car guy for real.

LOL, great video. I know what he means about shoes, I stick my work shoes in the boot of my car and wear trainers with my suit when driving cos I cant heel/toe properly in my work shoes due to the leather soles. I get some funny looks at gas stations.

Buy all black basketball trainers, they look a bit like shoes.

I must say for a first time BMW M owner this 5500rpm limiter for the first 1500miles is something totally new to me, spending £55K and not being able to beat anything bigger than a TDi Golf for those 1500miles will be HELL.
