Almost looks like a basement I could walk through without hitting my head on something

Since we are all basement experts. Which oil should I use?
Basements are typically colder so I was leaning towards something thinner like a 5w-20 but there can be hot spots around the furnace and water heater and am afraid of coking.
As you can see below, I really like to floor it a lot.

I’m thinking this summer will be a bit different, lots of new roads to explore with moving and all that.
Capitol Drive between 124th and 126th is pretty exhilarating- patsbimmer1, P_Roloff and Jdesign

Does automotive enthusiasm seem different to anyone else during the last year? I dont know if it’s just me, other hobbies, house projects, or what, but I think 2020 has been the year I have thought the least about cars since I was 6 years old.
All i’ve really been in the mood for is some Colonel Sanders cosplay and maybe a round of cribbage.

YES!
So what about the fuel pump? I know the M3 has a variable speed fuel pump. Is the stock 330i fuel pump adequate?
as far as the tamper dot, my research on the topic says that between the cluster, and DME 2 of the 3 need matching mileage to avoid the tamper dot. I didn’t read anything about the window switch though. Id be interested in hearing more about that.
Im really excited to see this project progress!

540i/6 if you dont mind the gas mileage.
I have no experience with the 228i/230i but I have always been interested in seeing what they are like.
I am also intrigued by the 128i. Install a helical LSD and some suspension and have a ton of fun for cheap. Honestly im not sure why people aren’t hoarding them. It has the NA 6 cyl RWD manual formula. On paper its not too different than an E36 M3.I even know a guy with one for sale

If you get a BMW it needs to be a somewhat special one otherwise the upkeep isn’t worthwhile. The definition of “special” varies, but I guess in this context, don't settle for an automatic if you really want a manual. DO consider an X3 if utility matters since the long roof tax is nonexistent.
There is no such thing as “one size fits all” whatever you get is going to suck in at least some aspect, otherwise we would all own the same perfect car.
E90 335i m-sport chassis and handling feels awesome when your reference is basic A-B transportation like a Camry.
Your E90 experience should at least have you feeling like there has been some progress. Rear bushings can be squirmy even on low mileage E90s especially with them being up to 15 years old by now.

It doesn’t list an associated organization but I assume it would be MCSCC -
