Drove the whole way from SF to LA without going over 2k rpm bc everyone scared me into thinking my bearings could blow.

Awesome ride and welcome to the group!

Thanks!

Car looks great! Love the color combo. Don't let people scare you about the rod bearings. I have 160,000 miles on my factory bearings and I redline my car every time I drive it. Enjoy the car!

I am hoping to keep my m3's as long as you! What do you do for maintenance to keep your m3 in such good shape for so long? Any tips are appreciated! Thanks!
