Re: Motorsports Reunion Coupés..

I was too busy drooling to get many pics at Legends of the Autobahn this year :shock: Here are a few: http://i618.photobucket.com/albums/tt267/5280JB/Monterey%202016/IMG_1322_zpsloyidbik.jpg http://i618.photobucket.com/albums/tt267/5280JB/Monterey%202016/IMG_1321_zps2jjepwkj.jpg http://i618.photobuc...

Re: Cars and Coffee at Canepa Design - 3.0CSL!

Thanks for posting these pics! Visiting Canepa is on my "wish list" of cool car sites to see. I was on a business trip recently and drove right by it on the way to and from the airport, but my schedule wouldn't allow enough time to make a stop - pained me to keep on driving. A local friend...

Nice work, Jose - Looks good! With the slightly larger diameter and slight padding, it looks like it would be a comfortable feel in your hands while driving.

How hard is it to find tires that fit?
Finding them is easy. Paying for them is the hard part.

See Cokertire.com for market pricing on Michelin TRX metric size tires:

Here you go, Jose: These measurements were taken from the M Tech 1 wheel on my E24 M6. It should be the same as what came stock on the '87 M6. Also used on the E28 5'ers. These measurements were taken on a stock OEM wheel, with the normal leather in place (not a stripped, bare wheel in other words)....

Interesting that it is on display in Dinan's showroom. I had the opportunity to tour the Dinan facility during Oktoberfest last year, and got the distinct impression that Dinan's business is focused on cars that are new, or maybe 1-5 years old. Its a business case decision on Dinan's part, which I c...

Wow - I'm impressed with the long tenure of ownership posted so far! I'm a relative rookie by comparison, having found my '88 M6 in 2007. It's been a thoroughly enjoyable experience so far, with no plans to let her go. If we were to count the years of longing, searching, and dreaming, my tenure woul...

Spring is finally arriving!

Here in Colorado we have been experiencing the typical bi-polar spring weather. Some days in the 60-70 degree range, followed by snowfall and cold temps (all too often on the weekend). Things aligned well enough on a recent Saturday morning for all of us cabin-fevered car nuts to gather at an early ...

I actually like the apartment building. The color is much better than the brown dead grass and dirty snow in many of the surrounding areas.
Well, that does in the plan for the lederhosen. Mine are brown and that would only detract from the picture's color composition. [-X

Tom - I didn't notice when we were arranging the cars for the bottom pic, but almost all of them pictured are Euro spec cars. What are the odds, in the middle of the North American continent, that that would happen? =D>

My hunch is the phone is a Mitsubishi Diamondtel phone from the early '90's. would be an analog phone, so actually activating it for use on a carrier today may be a problem. You're probably interested more in the "bling" than the "ring" so likely not an issue ;)
