Oh... and my "other cars" ARE bimmers.
I'm a glutton for punishment...
Hmm... that car looks familiar. You wouldn't have been wearing a Roots sweatshirt at Buttonwillow a while back driving the NSX, were you?Originally Posted by fkong777

My other car is a '90 Volvo 740 turbo intercooler. She a blast to rocket around in the rain.

Some of the stickers got screwed up due to speed... and a bunch of drunks putting them on.
Currently building a 2.6L DOHC 16v engine for it, and building an upgraded 968 6 speed gearbox. I'm sure I forgot a few things though.
Then, the 5, another 944 Turbo with mild suspension mods, and a Jeep that I have some time/money into as a tow vehicle. And I just picked up a 944 NA as a parts car.
the 540i is the only car i drive everyday but i really want an E30 318is. i miss having a stick. the M42 in the 318iS is less maintainence and for a little 4 banger its pretty zippy. 144hp in a 2600lb car isnt a bad power to weight ratio.
1996 Blazer (work), 1999 LHS, 1997 Voyager, All on the road and jamming my driveway.

great fun to drive round narrow twisty lanes. Always get waves off other landy drivers. Half my sister's, and being 6'2 it would be a pain in the arse as a daily driver anyway.
Also have a 1989 London Taxi (black cab) which I inherited from my uncle six years ago. Again diesel, but I've never had more than 70mph out of her. She's coming up to 600,000 miles, so Nissan had the right idea when they built the engine.

Other vehicles include a Nissan Crewcab for hauling the kayaks, ect. An 88 325ix currently being restored. Nine motorcycles my wife & I share including 5 BMWs, Aprilia, Ducati, Morini, Honda & 2 Alfas; a 1965 Spider Veloce and a 1966 Duetto.
