yeah, same here....

How about that shootout last night in Miami?

Super sad..

I wonder if the UPS driver and by stander were shot by police rounds.. or if the police started to fire first.

Not gonna lie, but after seeing videos of cops taking cover behind cars on the highway as they swiss cheesed the UPS truck, that was pretty stupid. 19 officers dumping mags on a highway during rush hours just seems like a poor judgment call

Florida, poor judgement call, checks out on all fronts. Consider that those dopes stole a flipping UPS truck. Of course, once cops in the US see that the hostage is dead it becomes a public shooting gallery because apparently fuck civvies and why bother with de-escalation.

Why Florida, Why!?... BTW I didnt even realize there was more than 1 shooting THIS WEEK.... I saw the thing about Pensacola, but didnt know the backstory

[ForcedFirebird]

Even the quick news reacp on the classical radio station was just a bunch of shootings. Ridiculous and unacceptable.

Four people lost their lives over some jewelry. Two were innocent.
From what I have heard, the FBI is investigating this.

Policing in this country needs some reform, it's getting out of hand.

Finally sat down and watch The Mandalorian, pretty good so far.

Was unaware of that series, thx. We just bought a year of Disney+ for the kids, and it's streaming there.

An i lip is now $170, and an is lip is now $235 at ECS. Shit. Shoulda bought one a few years ago when they were half that.

People like me, E30 builders, are driving up the prices.

I regret nothing.

Not sure how many people are actually reading this thread, but Im contemplating using the Aluminum Monster for the January car of the month... Im not getting any traction for the January car and its unlikely I will have one ready... also I have pics from the photoshoot that never got really posted anywhere so why not lol

At least it's still less expensive to rebuild an E30 than it would be to buy any new 3er, not to mention that people don't think you're a douche when you drive an E30. Unless it's some weird color, like the innards of a cantaloupe of course.

Yeah, they have gone quite a bit. Might be the only time I've purchased parts before the prices skyrocketed. Usually the other way around for me.

Do it, Simon. I am planning on a build thread for the new race car - never really did any thorough build threads here.

Not just rarity. Inflation is off the chain since 2009, and people aren't realizing it - in the last 9yr the dollar has gone up about 20%....
