  1. 🤣Fair enough, lol. I know your first love was Hondas and I got bored looking at BMW stuff so I took a chance.
  2. Did you happen to get anything in the mail...
  3. I remember thinking "Headlights that move? No way that works." Then I started driving cars with them and it's so fucking useful.
  4. A family friend is selling his 95 Dakar e36 M3 coupe and asked me to help out. His total years of ownership is over 10 years but during that span it did a stint with a tech from Patrick BMW at which point he purchased it back about 10 years ago. I had a chance to drive the car this morning and it is absolutely sublime! The exhaust is intoxicating and asks you to wring it out, the handling is SOLID, the clutch is just heavy enough, the UUC shifter is like loading a gun. It does not drive like a 25 year old car. This car is 85% of the way to a full on track build but in it's current state maintains a very nice balance between track ready and road cruiser. He brought me on board to go through the car for a pre-sale inspection. We will be replacing the guibo preventatively. The headliner is on our to-do list as well in the next two weeks. Vin# wbsbf93245EH02333 Miles: 149k The Good: Xenon Euro Elipsoid Headlights with Angel Eyes Brembo GT BBK front TMS power slotted rear rotors Rear muffler delete with remus tips chipped UUC SSK Sunroof Front Strut Brace Conforti CAI Bilstein Coilovers Corner Balanced LTW Rep rear spoiler AC Schnitzer aluminum e brake handle Alpine head unit Chassis X brace Euro MAF full tool kit NO RUST Leather is NEAR perfect condition Always garaged No faded plastic No dead pixels Front seats from 96-99 (thanks rekpoint) Did I say NO RUST already? The Bad: weak A/C headliner sagging guibo is starting to show wear 3-4 small spider cracks in front and rear bumper VERY VERY slight fading of paint BUT clear coat is perfect CEL on due to euro maf and chip check brakes on due to BBK slight glovebox sag Steering wheel is crooked but it tracks straight Will need new front rotors if it is tracked
  5. UPDATE: 10/14/2020 I'd like to take a moment to let everyone know that I am no longer running Garage Life Motoring. With my current job it would be a conflict of interest so regretfully, I had to let it go. Thankfully I was able to find someone to take the business over and continue to support the community and grow the business! My brother in law, Devin, has officially taken over the business as of 10/1/2020! He's a car guy himself and has a passion for euro's. Audi/VW in particular but please don't hold that against him. Him and his wife run a photography business full time doing weddings, getaways, elopements and engagements around the world. He's even had the opportunity to shoot engagement photo's for racecar driver, Kenton Koch! You can check them out on Instagram and Facebook at degrootfilmco. Devin can be reached at the same email address I was using, garagelifemotoring@gmail.com. At this time I'd like to take a moment to personally thank all of you who have supported me throughout this experience! I have truly been humbled by the amount of support I've received from all of you! I never would have expected that this small business could have helped me build so many long lasting relationships! There are quite a few of you that I've grown close to over the years simply because of this business and that's what I'm taking away from this experience. Thank you! I'll still be around here obviously and I've committed to Devin to "officially" support him with technical assistance for the next few months but beyond that, unofficially I'm still available to him for any technical support you guys may need. Some of you have worked with him already and some of you have even met him in person at car shows or at Road America and I trust that you are all in good hands. Hello! I'm excited to announce that I am open for business! I've started a small business selling performance parts with tons of vendors for various makes and models! More details to come! UPDATE: We're currently working on putting our e-store together and curating our assortment! It's exciting stuff for us but a bit tedious. We're trying to narrow down which models we want to advertise parts for but we can get parts for over 400 manufacturers and 900 lines! Some of these include: HRE, Advan, DINAN, AFE, Cobb, BMS, APR, KW/ST, Koni, Corsa, Borla, H&R and MANY MORE!
