Ahh that's sick, M3esque.

Looks awesome man! If my car wasn't a hatch I would do that in a second ... I just don't know how they would handle the little wing in the back. How much?

Cost me 250. I absolutely love it and in a few years I will probably have it painted that way. Wanted to be sure first though.

[ankskim]

i absolutely love the look of old vw's.
this one if for sale an hour away for $2650.
i really wanna fracking buy it because it looks classic and i would love to cruise around in it and keep it.
worth it?

Overpriced

[nasolovesyou]

I love the old VWs as well, but yea, you should be able to talk the price down a little

[brett00]

probably find a better deal on vwvortex.com classifieds

[LAXitives288]

But then you have to go on vwvortex. Is it really worth it?

picked up a 128i, white coupe 135i rims every package but navigation sports and keyless entry. Also a stick. I'll grab pictures eventually.

Good choice man! Enjoy it in good health, I'll be waiting for the pictures

[irollgen4s]

thing handles like it's on rails, especially compared to my Jeep. waiting for some wet roads so i can mess around a little bit.

[CasterTown]

Finally got this to upload. Fun Sunday evening run. Nothing crazy.

[CaboWabo]

Everything handles on rails compared to a jeep. Nice pickup though, should be a fun car for sure. Watched the topgear that featured the 1M Coupe last night and had a chub the entire time.

[tommygallagher]

the 1m coupe seems like bmw is trying to bring back the e46 m3 in an almost better package. i'd still rather have the M roadster with the hardtop

[a_pla5tic_bag]

I saw a brand new 458 italia when i was surfing a few days ago. that thing is SEXY.

[LAXitives288]

Been having an intermittent idle issue the past couple days, pulled the carb today and found 2 bugs in the float bowl. Mystery solved.

[irollgen4s]

This things quick as hell, i can't imagine having a 1m or even the 135i. Next thing i wanna do is get an exhaust, it's a little to quiet for my taste. maybe an intake down the road, but other then that not much is getting done since it's my commuter car.

[SACTO skim]

Went on a little sprinted run the other day with a buddy of mine in his Audi R8 with the Stasis Exhaust. He let me drive the alone and man this car is fun! A good way to find motivation! Full photoshoot to be done soon

Haha creepy shot of me leaving

[CasterTown]

That thing sounds awesome. Looks like a ton of fun to drive.

[SACTO skim]

Loved it! Never been in a car that grabbed the road so well. It was the first time I was allowed to drive the car alone as well, amazing experience.

I wish my camera picked up the sound better. He also has red interior being shipped to him, so I will have a secondary/3rd shoot when that comes in!

Followed some ridiculously rare exotics yesterday:

[chachi]

and not one speed limit was broken that day...

[CasterTown]

Yeah, kind of disappointing. One of my driving buddies pointed out in the comments that a cyclist basically out-paces them the whole way down. Haha. I expected them to at least drive like they were somewhat stimulated by driving arguably the two fastest exotics ever made by humans. Nope.

[CaboWabo]

I'm surprised the McLaren didn't overheat.

[hondarider525]

This ^. Im pretty sure he had to put in a lot of effort to go that speed.

[CasterTown]

It honestly looked like he was just coasting most of the way because the thing didn't make any noise. Clutch in all the way down? haha

[SACTO skim]

I'm surprised the McLaren didn't overheat.

Funny you say that, the McLaren I shot a few weeks back overheated while driving to our location.. A/C also went out and tires warnings. I don't think I would ever own one, plus the looks really are not that great or exciting.

[irollgen4s]

bout to order the bmw performance exhaust for my 128. unsure if i feel like dropping that much money on it already.. but it sounds so nice.

[CasterTown]

Just learned the one I filmed sold to the current owner for 3.6 million. Yeah, I don't think I would ever own one either. I'd much rather... buy every other car ever made.

[irollgen4s]

this went on today

[CasterTown]

Sounds sick.

[irollgen4s]

after this winter i'm gonna try to grab either coil overs or the BMW performance suspension to drop it a little bit, then rims and tires for spring/summer/fall then put snow tires on my stockers for the winter. unsure if i'll switch the suspension back to stock for the winter for a little more clearance though.

[tommygallagher]

coilovers

[irollgen4s]

they'd be ideal but also cost about 1400 as opposed to 500 for the sport suspension. depends on my wheel and tire choice and how much money that leaves me.

[hondarider525]

suspension before wheels.

[irollgen4s]

i'm still on the fence about getting any suspension work done because i still need to DD it in the winter. the next thing i'm doing within a few weeks is swapping stock halogens to xenon with angel eyes. sadly one of the packages mine was lacking was the xenon package
