    Oh and my new roommate also drives a white 2 door iX! Never met him before, it looks basically stock.

    ALPINEWHITE FTW!!


    Good letter to cash 4 gold, tired of their commercials, did you do all of that stuff?

    No one makes this car anymore. The government won't allow them, normal people won't buy them. So it's up to us: the freaks, the weirdos, the informed. To buy them, to appreciate them, and most importantly, to drive them.

      Holy crap. That stuff will take your hubcaps off.

      Yeah, I have been cleaning my ol' E28 with this stuff in its concentrated form, well dang, it about dissolved my dash, as well as stripped the dye right out of the leather seats. Awesome stuff if you want to do some heavy duty cleaning, also quite strong to breathe in.

      You can get it at Wal-Mart for little more than the current price of gasoline.

          In fact, when I was buying a gallon of that at Wal-Mart, I couldn't find a SINGLE jug that had an intact aluminum seal under the cap, they had ALL dissolved. That's right, this stuff dissolves aluminum.

            JK man, how did the issue get fixed?
            AST figured out a solution to eliminate the rear shock binding issue and built new rear struts for me, and are shipping them out asap. I then return the old struts. So I am basically selling a pair of front struts with <100mi on them and a set of rear struts that will work on a wagon or a sedan that are brand new.

            So I did it, then bought an E28 M5... WTF?
            Yea...I really want an M5 for a daily but I want an S54 with CSL airbox even more.

              The CSl airbox is one of the sexiest automotive part in existence. The sound they make is mesmerizing!

                  I was at excalibur machine to try and have my uprights made for my rear wing. Ended up going with Al at Front Range Precision. Cool guy, and just the type of shop I like giving my business too.

                      It's only the bolster. That should be easy to fix.

                        It took me all night to figure out how to recover a kitchen chair. I will wait until I find good seats.

                            ^That was awesome! I think he passed a white e21 at one point. About 50sec. it looks like he actually hit one of the cars as well.
