Gorgeous. How do you like that S5? I've been toying with the idea of selling both the CM and the 650i to get wither an S4 or an S5 coupe...

If you're serious, take a look at the new All Road.

Well lets say I like it enough because this is my second one, first the coupe now the cab. I really love the cab its a totally different beast with the 3.0T V6 instead of the 4.2 V8. As you may know the MY 2013 the coupe also has the 3.0T which is just as fast if not faster than the V8. The S-Tronic dual clutch gearbox is also something I love on the cab, there is no way you would be able to shift faster with a 6mt. But I don't like it enough not to move onto the RS5 (ETA is 12.17). I just couldn't hold back I think it is one of the most beautiful and prestigious cars if you will. But I would highly recommended it. Especially since I have a tune on the car its pumping around 400 HP and is very fast (the S4 is the same engine). If you need to haul stuff the Allroad is fin but is pushing 50,000$ which is kinda steep. Stop on over Audizine or A5oc (I'm IbisS5 on both those forums as well). Do some reeding there are some great threads or start your own on what to expect/look for but 9.9/10 people love there A,S,RS5 car including me so if you have the money I highly recommended the car.

Thanks for the feedback! Awesome looking car. It's TBD right now. We have four cars for two people which is at least one too many, so regardless, the next car purchase will be a replacement of 2 into 1. This may happen sooner than I had planned because we are seriously considering moving and if so we'll lose a garage space. I am not loving the new 3 series so looking at other options.

I have never liked it. But the RS5 will be such a beast I am going to supercharge it and it will have 650+ bhp. But yes if you have the means do it there isn't a problem with the car that I can find.

Heh, the grass is always greener. We try our best to get rid of the reflectors.

The very first photos I took were nothing but reflections back at me so I paid $30 for film to cover them. Eh...not impressed with them.

I took my little sister and her friend up a great access road in Wilmington, Vermont a few weeks back in Kowalski... Such a fun road




Also, I just adopted another Mini! (And yes that is a lowercase Mini for the classics) His name is Sir. Alec named after the King of Mini.



PS... I just ordered lowering springs and a camber kit for Kowalski... Should be here next wednesday. I'll post pics once I have them installed

Hey Kyle,

What camber kit did you order? Front, or rear?? I'm dying for the front camber plates and rear sway bar. I just got an email from NM saying sway bar in 2 weeks. I've got the nm springs on and absolutely love them. So much better in the corners.

Thanks,

I ordered the rear camber... Front's not out yet, but the back (with my wheels) is where I have my issues.

Can't wait for the sway bar!
