Tell me about it. I have only 2k miles on my car, had it for a month and a half. Already a couple rock chips. I also live in Michigan which after visiting IL, CA, OH, IN, PA, NJ, NY, CT, MA, and plenty of other states, has the worst roads of them all. The funny thing is I have a BMW with 40k...

Can't argue with this - seems like most BMWs since at least the 90s have had shitty cooling systems and gaskets.

I have been averaging 20-22 MPG on my 17 GT, 3.55 gears, and FRPP1. Thats cruising highway 70% and going from 75-90 MPH easily. This car isn't meant to be a fuel efficient. Most V8 cars that I looked at around this horsepower have worse fuel economy (besides chevys). I find if you aren't...

Been seeing more and more of these pre-production builds, it's a good looking car but makes me appreciate my 17GT more. I think they complement each other in terms of looks, one does not make the other look dated (yet). We shall see how the 15-17 GT look with age. Can't comment on the...

MBRP Street/Race. Very happy with the sound. Perfectly loud without being too obnoxious since I live in a condo complex. And when you get above 4k, the sound puts a smile on my face everytime.

It's funny you wrote this - the E9x M3 was my dream car and I was looking into one before getting my S550. I just couldn't justify it anymore given the fact that all M3s are used (many of them heavily) with a lot of miles for the 35k i paid for my GT Premium Black Accent, not to mention the fact...

Haven't heard anything bad about the 2.0L diesel in particular, it's been in the E90 for a long time. Diesels should go on for a while. Apparently some of them have had issues with Transfer cases.

I had very good experiences with my bimmers. My sister still has my 08 328i going strong at over 135k miles. Leaks oil from the VCG and OFH but that's it. Definitely love bimmers, and the aftermarket community is great. So many mods. But I feel that my F30 will be my last new BMW unless it's...

:headbang::headbang::headbang: How'd she hold up?

How do you say your S550 compares to them? I had an E36, E90, and F30. Loved all of them except my E36.

if you reconsider shipping i'd take it.

I've driven the new Raptor. It is an animal. I love it. But it's a different type of fun car. Unless you're hauling stuff, plan on taking it off-road, it's not really too much than better than a vanilla F-150 on the street. It's passing power is pretty ridiculous for a behemoth it's size.

Before I traded it in for my GT, I had about 28K miles on my EB. It was tuned since the week I bought it (a few miles on livernois, then the cobb stage 1 when it became available). I drove it hard for a year and a half and had 0 issues with the powertrain. I fully expected that car to last many...

Curious what BMW do you have?

in on this thread. its amazing how much of a go kart my 3 year old f30 bmw with 35k miles with just springs and michelin tires (which many consider to be less nimble than other BMWs) feels like compared to my GT (which has full ford performance suspension) with 1k miles.

I installed a PP1 within 300 miles on my car.

Yup go to Dodge which has consistently been ranked amongst the lowest in quality. I'm not going to say the mustang doesn't have quality issues, but my EB ran 28K hard miles in 1.5 years before I got rid of it. It had absolutely zero issues. The fit on the body panels definitely needs to improve...

I got nothing against Dodge, but the challenger is such a damn big car. The S550 is already huge, I can't imagine getting something bigger than this. The powertrain is great but its such a damn big and heavy car. And for some reason, the challenger is the only car out of the three muscle cars...

Oh no...my bank account got drained in the last 1 month since I've bought the car. Looks like another rough month :D:D:D

Congrats! Hope you have a fun time enjoying and modifying the car if you choose to do so.
