Overall, I am happy with my purchase. I love the stylish exterior and it is incredibly fast and fun to drive. It is so compact, the car fits in any size parking space. I also love the incredible amount of storage it has in the trunk more than you would imagine.

In regards to REx, everything will effect range: temperature, speed, number of passengers, interior cabin heat/cool, wind direction, most recent driving efficiency. I can depart for IU (55 miles one way) with a full battery charge showing 95 miles (and the REx usually slightly under this for another 85 miles) and arrive at the destination with battery at 10 miles at >56 mph) when it starts at 6% charge. To solve for this, you have to slow down. On most interstates with posted 70 mph, its not safe to be driving 55. My approach has become to assume that the estimated battery mileage will drop considerably over the trip, by 50%, and so the best plan is to finder a public charger at the turn around point. You can run the REx through its 2 gals, refuel and get another 30 miles, but again this needs to be at much less than 70 mph. When you get home, the REx will be screaming at you, hot, fans blowing.

Answer:It sounds like it is not connected to the traveler/rope. The red rope hanging down. Or, the main drive gear is stripped out. See if you can move the door easily without pulling on the red rope. If you can move the door it’s not connected, if it doesn’t move then you have a stripped gear.

Some people will say that you can just go to your fire station or police department. You can It best to look it up because it will tell you where you can get it checked, whether you can drop by/if they have a car seat check once a month or every couple of months/if you have to make an appointment. I live in a metro with 2.4 million people and we only have 21 places to get seats checked. Out of those 21 places, we have 2 you can stop by any day of the week at any time, 2 you can make an appointment for any time during their business hours, and the rest either have monthly/bimonthly/quarterly car seat check fairs. I had to set my appointment 24 days in advance because the children hospital was so booked out. I would suggest figuring out how to get yours checked soon.

Raiola puts the word out that de Ligt is open to a move. A bunch of big clubs come back and say “yes we interested, what sort of terms would the player be looking for?” Raiola says a 5 year contract, de Ligt to be one of the top 5 paid center backs in the world, 10% yearly wage increase, and an 8 figure signing bonus, and on top of that you have to pay me a 20m euro agent fee. Immediately some of the potential buyers drop out because the agent fee is so large, even though they may be willing to pay the transfer fee to Ajax and meet the player contract demands. Perhaps they have a club policy against paying agent fees that large or other financial controls. This obviously limits the potential market for de Ligt somewhat and means he may not get the best possible terms.

The AMC Pacer ArrivesWhen I first went to North America aged sixteen in the summer of 1975, my parents and I were met at Toronto airport by my Dad’s cousin, the wonderfully craggy, frail, chain smoking Cliff and his trusty 1965 AMC Rambler Cross Country. When we returned the following year Cousin Cliff had suffered a series of heart attacks, had a triple bypass operation, was still smoking and had ditched the Rambler for something he referred to as his “moon buggy”; the amazing bubble on wheels that was his brand new beige AMC.

It absolutely is a luxury car. Perhaps not the base model with manual seats and no heated seats. A average selling price of 50k and premium features all the way around. How can you argue it isn doesn have ventilated seats, a heated steering wheel, the suspension isn what I expect in a luxury car, the car is noisier than a typical luxury car, the seats are not like that of a typical luxury style car, the interior finishes don scream luxury to me either. Don get me wrong the model 3 is absolutely a premium car. I just don feel it crossed the line into luxury. I also don feel that entry level BMWs, Audis, Acuras or Mercs fall into that category either. Premium, yes. Luxury, no. Luxury is getting into a super comfortable seat you melt into, feel like you are riding on a cloud, surrounded by luxurious finishes and a nice quite ride. The model 3 is a terrifically fun car to drive, but it isn luxury. It a terrific 바카라사이트 car, and a really fun one to drive, but I don know how anyone can call it luxury.

Zao is not a good choice for ranked this season because you most impactful when maximizing your concealment and either lurking 4 5 km behind your DDs or flanking and catching cruisers off guard with AP volleys and farming BBs that have their guns pointed elsewhere. The problem is you get hard countered by a CV because they can permaspot you once your location is known, and your AA is pretty bad (not that any solo cruiser can defend against repeated CV strikes). Henri is better because concealment is not a big deal, you can use IFHE to burn down BBs incredibly fast, reload booster is OP, and it much faster and tankier.

Modern engines have knock sensors and run right at the edge of detonation all the time by design to extract maximum energy out of every drop of fuel. Running premium isn really giving you more margin for error in terms of pinging on a modern engine, the engine just bumps the timing up as much as the gas will tolerate anyway.

Don forget your 140k is before taxes, you will also have bills like housing, food, etc.Buying a new car is more than just sticker price. You will have insurance, maintenance, sales tax, property tax (if your state does that), and BMWs are not the most reliable cars out there.Buy a used car with a reliable history, assuming you actually need one to get to and from work, and you be just fine.

BMW is one of the most successful marques in racing, from providing, probably, the most successful engine ever for Formula One (the straight four M10), through to decades of dominance on the road in touring and rally cars. “It is a company close to my heart,” says Adrian van Hooydonk, senior vice president of BMW Group Design. “Driving is close to my heart, too; expressing movement in metal it’s what I love.”

The following morning is spent perfecting each driver’s seating position (a vital detail which, if incorrect, can dramatically hamper progress) and learning the various steering techniques that might need to be employed in order to tackle the Nordschleife’s many and varied technicalities. After that, it’s time to undertake your first laps. These happen behind a pace car, which enables fledglings to follow the correct lines at the correct speed and therefore remain, literally, “on track”.

Really hoping for any advice on my current car leasing situation. 3 years ago my boyfriend started a lease on a BMW 4 series for $425/mo. After a year and half had passed, I was interested in also leasing a 4 series. I found one I liked and we negotiated the price down to $400 a month. At the time I was financing another vehicle and was cosigned on my boyfriends lease. Because the new BMW would be a third car under my name they had to get creative. I offered to have my parents cosign but they said they found another solution as my parents were out of state. They decided to basically do a “payoff” of my boyfriends remaining lease payments and add it to mine so that we would only have one BMW under each of our names. This made our payment around $825/mo for the combined payments. We signed the deal and were on our way. The following day we wondered what would happen when my boyfriend’s lease term ended. We called and I can’t quite remember exactly, but it was something along the lines of the payment would fall off or we would trade both cars in and begin new leases.

His performances this season, which have included a brief lead in the final round of the Open Championship in July, have catapulted Woods up to 26th in the world rankings, a leap of more than 600 places since the end of last year as he recovered from spine fusion surgery.READ: Tiger Woods, Phil Mickelson, Bryson DeChambeau picked for Ryder CupWoods said much of Thursday’s success was down to him dusting off the 19 year old putter he used for 13 of his 14 major wins.”I’ve been monkeying around with it at home in the back yard through the summer,” the 42 year old told reporters. “It just never felt right, but it feels good now. I’ve hit hundreds of millions of putts with that thing.”I’ve had it since 1999. My body just remembers it. It just feels very familiar to me.”Northern Ireland’s McIlroy was on track to better his Ryder Cup rival’s round at one point even looking likely to shoot sub 60 with a career best six consecutive birdies but back to back bogeys on the back nine scuppered his chance.It was certainly a day for low scoring as American Xander Schauffele, in contention to be Furyk’s fourth and final wildcard pick Monday, shot a seven under par 63 to sit in third.Ryder Cup rivals Justin Thomas of America and Sweden’s Alex Noren were tied on six under alongside Billy Horschel and Peter Uihlein.In total, 48 of the 69 players in the field were under par after the opening round.”We all benefit from Tiger Woods playing well,” McIlroy said after the round. “I’m happy he’s up there. And it will be a great tournament if he stays up there.”

Then enters the ATS, It had 1 owner who put less than 10k miles on it per year and was everything seemed basically brand new. It was in a much better condition, had way more tech, AND it was a few thousand dollars cheaper than the BMW, it was a no brainer. These are the types of cars that I love to buy because they are such a steal on the pre owned market. Now, buying these brand new is a different story but I never do such a thing with most vehicles.

From 1990 1993, Acura sold the second generation Integra, perhaps the most popular among enthusiasts. You’ll want to find one with the 1.8 L engine producing 130 hp or the top level GS R Integra which was first introduced in 1992. Featuring Honda’s VTEC (Variable valve Timing and lift Electronic Control), the GS R’s engine produced160 hp and proved to be a favorite for tuners and enthusiast drivers alike.

After hours on the World Wide Web, the cheapest option I could find was a universal 02 sensor for 67.99 at AutoZone. I also came across some posts for VW’s, BMW’s, and Mercs all stating that they were using cheap Ford oxygen sensors, and replacing the harness plug, like you would have to do with the universal 02 sensor anyway. I could not find any documentation on someone using this sensor on an MKIV, but others stated it works great on their MKIII, so for the greater good of mankind I gave it a go.

Forget the automobile. Our whole auto centric world is primitive. Our cities are sprawling concrete monstrosities dissected by arteries of death and filled with these grotesque beasts spewing out toxic waste clouds. Its a nightmare we have all just become used to because it is all we’ve ever known. ANY automobile is primitive.

In terms of accidents, you right, that what insurance is for. My insurance company charges less for a Civic than a Model 3. IIRC it a 20%+ difference with the 3 being more expensive. The risk with insurance is if you get into a small “fender bender” in the 3. If it ends up taking 6 10 weeks to fix, as many have found, your insurance company may only provide a loaner for the first 4 weeks. If you need the 3 for work, that a major problem. Renting a car for weeks is massively expensive. Of course there the argument that you less likely to die in a 3, and that death is worse, but I say all of this to say that small collision that are normally a non issue become a real risk. I haven attempted to quantify the risk.

So what are we left with? Questioms about each other, our lives, and what we going through, good and bad, if you dont want to share, thats okay, say so and move on. If you do feel like sharing maybe you have a great talk and be closer with a friend. If you uncomfortable and dislike me for asking about your life god forbid, then I guess lets just not talk, but it not bad to attempt to have a meaningful interaction

Bridging the GT only and LMP/GT series is the fan favourite Japanese Super GT series. Super GT features the aforementioned GT3 category (known as GT300), with some custom cars thrown in the mix, such as the infamous Toyota Prius Racer. Super GT also has the draw of GT500, spec chassis prototype GT cars with turbocharged 4 cylinder engines. They are very fast and very exciting to watch, and feature cars from Nissan, Honda and Toyota/Lexus.

The R8, while being more economically priced than the MP4 12C and the 458 Italia off the showroom, is probably more expensive to outfit with options (Audis usually are) nevertheless, its understated looks are perfect for those who don’t wish to be too conspicuous about their wheels but can still cause a stir on track days while saving more fuel (The R8 is more economical than the McLaren or the Ferrari).

Not “only in South Africa”, even Gordon Brown is being hauled over the coals for spending too much government money on personal items. Seems all politicians are the same worldwide. We are kidding ourselves in voting for their election “promises”. Every politician of every creed only cares about lining their own pockets and then they incite us with their pretty speeches (never written by themselves)to turn against each other because of all the problems they have created. Booooo to all politicians and their greed. Good luck to every private citizen you’re on your own, mate!

You will have a CPO warranty for a while but things seem to start going very wrong after the first 3 4 years. My car was often at the dealer for things such as faulty electronics, leaks, broken sway bars. The repairs only costed me time but it would been expensive after the CPO warranty expires.

Spitballin here.$250K gross $60K taxes (guess) $37K 401Ks $60K expenses $36K to savings leaves $57K. Sure. Pay it off in a year.Word of caution. I went down this road. Was always frugal. Got to where I could afford it. Got a real nice 5 series just out of its 4 year warranty (new would have been affordable but this seemed like what I wanted at a better value).

While the success was celebrated by BMW Oracle, others were not so happy thanks to another quirk of the Cup. Normally, the first official challenger to throw down the gauntlet becomes the Challenger of Record, but this doesn’t give them an automatic right to race the defender. If other clubs issue separate challenges, it is up to the Challenger of Record to organise a series in which the best challenger goes on to the America’s Cup.

Currently, the i3 has been sitting in the shop for 3 weeks waiting on warranty parts from the mothership the heating system leaked coolant on the primary high voltage cable. While it was still driving as normal, it had an ominous warning of a drivetrain malfunction that “should continue to drive; yet get service soon”

I mean Tonys Dodge Demon from the article was rated at 275hp gross, it probably only made around 230hp net from the factory. And that was made before the emission laws really kicked in so it not like it strangled, that just how much power it made. Last year I bought a RWD car that made 240hp for $2600, that probably would have lasted longer than that Demon without needing a rebuild or other major work if I hadn ripped the engine out for a swap. Those old muscle cars are awesome, but I don really think we getting the short end of the stick when it comes to cheap performance.

Just like having the engine running on a ICE car. So if the 12 battery is too dead to fire up the controllers the HV battery can be energized and therefore can be charged either. So the battery is likely not dead enough to have the car be completely dead (no door locks no nothing) but too dead to pull in the line contactor for the HV battery.

On board the station, a bored man in his mid thirties wearing a dress shirt with coffee stains on the hem sat drumming his fingers while watching a sports broadcast. He went to take a sip of coffee without looking. The panel in front of him flashed, chirping to indicate an incoming communication request. He choked on his coffee, spilling some more onto his shirt. “Who the hell?!”

Can he just drive the Subaru all year? We’ve just moved to a snowy area and omg people go on about their Subaru’s. Something about the 50/50 balance of the engine makes them good in snow. Everyone here has awd and I don’t see anyone changing out cars for the season (unless they’re living in much nicer area than I am!).

Recently, as my boyfriend’s lease term ended this month, we went in to talk to the finance manager about our trade in process (salesperson no longer works there). He said he would try and work on it and to come back. He set us up with a salesperson and we got nowhere. Basically, they screwed us. Even though we negotiated the price of my car before figuring we needed to combine lease payments, I am now stuck with a remaining payment of $825/mo for my car alone as my boyfriend had to trade in his car. Somewhere in the mix of paperwork it was calculated to have my boyfriends value over the 36mo instead of 15. Instead, we should have had a much lower required monthly payment and paid over that amount for the difference of my boyfriends car during the 15mo so when he turned his in my payment would have been $400.

Customization. When I was first shopping around for a Mini, I went to their website to play with the various options I could have on the car. A cool thing about this car is that you can customize it almost anyway you want. Not only does the Mini stand out among other cars, you can make your own Mini stand out among identical models.

That said, my wife forgot to charge my i3 one night and I was almost stranded. luckily I limped into a BMW dealership that had one and 10 minutes later I had enough to get home. not particularly a big deal, if it had been AC I would have left 30 minutes later.

Indeed, the Alpina engineering centre is so sophisticated that it houses eight dynamometers kitrepresenting an investment of more than 12m that are used to assess the output of the specially modified, always twin turbocharged Alpina engines. These engines are designed to provide not just a high top speed, but surprising improvements in fuel economy and the greater pulling power that gives the cars both astonishing acceleration and effortless long distance cruising ability. Every Alpina also gets modified electronics, an upgraded gearbox, aerodynamic enhancements, highly adaptable suspension that radically improves both handling andcomfort, and a signature touch, this a set ofhighly distinctive 20 spoke wheels.

The BMW Concept 8 Series is a two door coup, bigger, wider, lower. “Our aim was to make it sportier than ever before, more dynamic,” says van Hooydonk,”hence the new ‘fast back’ roof profile. That sets it apart from our heritage cars. Always we think of what the brand needs tomorrow. Innovation comes from art, industrial design, travelling, talking to people. Our history is rich, and we are always trying to make it richer.”

Personally I almost always service at the BMW dealer. They charge a premium but everything is almost always done correctly, and if not they have worked hard to fix it. They also detail the car and provide a loaner for months if needed. My dealer charges only 10 20% extra for parts and labour. Some dealers are charging double mine. For me, BMW has been a huge positive experience vs indie work.

The summit looks good, but most people are overhyping it a lot. BMW for instance mentions on stage that their proof of concept was succesful, but the future will be long and complicated as Germans (BMW) are very skeptical of new technologies. The concept looks great, but it is not much different from many prototypes on other chains.

That theory of mine probably doesn conform with the standard theory pushed by economists. I was actually inspired by a reddit comment in the past year that I can find, but it was on a post about some type of college race or gender quota. The gist of the comment was that full economic potential would be where every potential engineer, scientist, any category, can become what they want to be. They not stifled by circumstances that force them into alternative positions or limit their potential.

If one is constantly filling with a lot of water there most certainly may be a leak. The proper way to check the system is a knowledgeable person with a pressure tester. The system is pressurized and then leaks can be sought. Some common ones are the hoses best checked first. A next best look is at the water pump seal. Freeze plugs are more of rarity today, yet can be considered. A good look about is needed overall.

I know i have not accounted for maintenance, which is definitely the curve ball in this scenario. I have a family friend who has owned a BMW shop since 1980 and is going to examine any car i might get, and will do all the work. So im not too worried about getting bent over in the repair shop.

Operation of the mp3 player is very much like using your phone. You can either use the dash to browse your mp3 files or use the voice commands. You can, however, use the dash to browse your mp3 files while the vehicle is in motion. I try to avoid this because of the obvious driving distraction hazard. Voice commands for the mp3 player include “play artist”, “play album”, “play playlist”, “next track”, and “previous track”. When you connect your mp3 player to your vehicle the computer may tell you it cannot index all the files on your device. Do not despair if you get this message. The computer won’t download your pictures or videos to the vehicle, only audio files. When your mp3 player is playing through the Sync system, the artist’s name and current song title will be displayed on the dash screen.

It was common with those cars, particularly the coupe models and if your in an accident your insurance won pay out if the car is re specced. Plus, if there high mileage I strongly reccomend you get a mechanic you trust to check out the car. Even the best petrol engines will tend to calve after 120k miles, particularly in a BMW because the youngfellas who tend to be the third owner drive the arse out of them.My advice? If your going to by any car more than 10 years old buy a diesel for reliability.

The composer Sir Thomas Beecham famously said: “In this life, try everything once, except for incest and folk dancing” to which I have always mentally appended “and free fall parachuting, and driving at the ‘ring’.” Yet taking up the Nrburgring gauntlet has become almost a rite of passage for any self respecting fan of high speed driving, and not doing so is akin to an opera lover ignoring Glyndebourne or an oenophile avoiding Chteau Ptrus.

Jack grabbed her ever present “camera” and fixed it floating before moving in between it and the suit. She spread her arms wide, saying “Here it is! The V 22 Catsith Egretta! Obviously it’s not completely finished, I’m waiting on some decals and have some detail parts to add but the suit is technically complete so I was bfakn.club planning to test it today! I always find that GBN helps show flaws in my work that wouldn’t otherwise be noticeable.” Then the energetic streamer bounced back over to her recording interface and reoriented it above her shoulder.

Makes sense, I never thought about that. What would you recommend between the Merc and the Audi?So in your option I should do a season in the GT3 cars, and then move up to GTE after that?Yep. The experience you gain will be invaluable. You may even get up to Class B in that time and be able to race in VRS Sprint/Endurance, which is a GT3 only series, and intensely, intensely competitive.

One of the best ways to let people know about photo editing talent is to print or save samples and show them to friends and family in person or through social networks. You could help friends and family with their profile photos, too. This skill could be extremely popular and lucrative around the holidays, when people are preparing their annual holiday cards with photos.

The video below goes some way to show just how fast this car is around corners too. Almost a full 5 SECONDS faster than the Koenigsegg CCX (although Top Gear keeps refusing to put it round themselves). Definitely worth watching just to hear the noise and witness the best kit car in the world doing its thing.

With an airport internet from charles de gaulle paris, i was able to skype with my husband and my parisian friends and let them know my tricky predicament. Then i took the tgv train from paris to marseille, got off saint charles station and again i used the ipad to send text messeges for my friend who is supposed to pick me up at the train station. Could not find each other T the train station. I used the ipad to send text messeges to my friend. What a relief that was.

Day two sees more of the same, plus multiple runs on individual sections of the track that are famously difficult to master. As someone who freely admitted to being too scared to go it alone in my own car (without the untold benefits of insurance, since few companies will cover a driver on the ring), the fully insured BMW course seemed ideal so, after a 90 minute flight from Heathrow to Frankfurt and an autobahn blast to the circuit 100 odd miles away, it was time for what my instructor worryingly described as my Nordschleife “blooding”.

Having said that, with some basic automotive acumen and a few hours this issue can be fixed for as little as $50 or less to replace just the transfer case actuator gear whereas a mechanic or dealer would conceivably charge $1,500 to $2,000 or more to replace the transfer case actuator motor entirely (or worst case scenario attempt to replace the entire transfer case?).

Jack walked over and slid onto the bench next to the fox featured woman casually. “Some people, right?” She hooked a thumb over her left shoulder towards the argument. “Are they bothering you? You have this concerned look on your face. I’m Jack Knife by the way, but you can call me Jack, it’s so nice to meet you! Are you new to GBN? Can I touch your tail? It looks so soft!”

The gents’ watches and a couple of women’s models in the Cellini line are hand wound. Since the Cellini collection is the simplest in terms of design and function of all the Rolex watches, the hand winding befits this classical image. I admit that I see an obvious paradox and somewhat of an incoherence in having a classically simple timepiece with a quartz movement, which is usually associated with cheaper watches or fakes. Still, we can be quite certain that Rolex does not manufacture lesser quality watches, so if for some reason you fancy having a quartz powered timepiece, you can be sure it will keep on ticking with accuracy and precision for many years to come.7 years ago

To replace the washer fluid pump and/or strainer grommet. If you need to replace a leaking pump, I suggest also replacing the strainer grommet at the same time. It’s cheap and will ensure the seal between the pump and grommet don’t leak later. All told, you’ll need less than $50 worth of parts, which if you’ve ever paid 바카라사이트 a mechanic or dealer for BMW repairs, you’ll know is a relatively cheap repair.

If what you saying is true, that it was illegal then it would come out by now, people would been put on trial and gone to jail. If by some miracle it was still under cover, then it will certainly come out now, and people will be tried and they go to jail for it. If that happens I be willing to say that you right, that I been played like a fiddle and that it the biggest scandal in our lifetimes. If it doesn happen, and instead Barr selectively declassifies some things without full context or full declassification to muddy the waters, giving cover to Trump but no one goes to jail, then I hope you be able to say that you wrong and that you the one who been played. Hope we can check in in a few months and see where we stand

Would you let a 12 year old drive your car?Jump to Last Post 1 15 of 15 discussions (32 posts)My 12 year old recently went on a camping trip with some of his dads friends. While on this ‘camping’ trip the following happened. The old ladys grand daughter was ‘upset’ so the woman gave her car keys to my son and told him to take her grand daughter for a drive.

Usually there is a weep hole on the bottom of the water pump when the bearing starts wearing out, it breaks a seal and anti freeze will drip from directly from the front of an engine. you do not mention year make or model or mileage of your vehicle, loosen the radiator cap just enough to keep pressure from building up, and keep the overflow topped off and check the radiator when it is cold to be sure there is enough coolant, this may buy you some time, but you need to get under the truck and find out where it is coming from.

Obviously, the Odyssey is the best choice but as a “car person” that enjoys driving, I would miss driving the BMW. So, how likely is it that the tiny third row seats in the X5 would work for car seats? Does anyone have experience or can share some insight into making it work?

A result with a bad cap is water heats more quickly and its counterpart steam occurs at a lower temperature. Usually it will spill over into the coolant reservoir tank. When it is steam it simply dissipates making detection more difficult. At times the coolant reservoir will be a dingy dirty look like there was muddy water present if the radiator is afoul from lack of maintenance.

My wife’s cousin, she was spoiled as a child with wealthy parents and was never told no. She was raised believing she was a princess and now she is out of high school and weight has caught up with her in a big way. She is pushing 285 lbs but still thinks she is a princess and wears such revealing clothes. She won’t take hints, my wife has tried to invite her to work out with her but she thinks they are equal and she weighs considerably more than double.

Door styles As indicated above, you are generally limited to the 6 8 door designs that are in stock, and you must take them in the color they come with. There is no allowance for glass doors on any cabinet. You have to choose from a small assortment of wall cabinets that are able to accept glass. Wainscot panels for backs of islands are generally not available, so you must use either standard door panels or plywood. Doors always come hinged one way. If you want the door hinged on the other side, you need to flip the door over. This is no big deal except with cathedral door designs where there is a distinct left/right. In these cases, the manufacturer supplies plastic plugs to fill the unused hinge holes on the non hinged side of the door.

In fact, the 2 door GTI was worse in the city, because the doors are so much longer, you can open them as easily in tight parking spaces. The 4 door has doors that open wider with less space next to you, and the doors are much smaller and lighter. So I would argue that while you THINK you want a 2 door, based on your requirements, if you came to me without any bias, I be recommending the 4 door to you over the 2 door.

Kind of just seeing what people think. I figure that i will start a family in about 5 6 years so if im going to have a sick sports car then now is the time. I was always the FI type who was like oh ill never spend money on a car because its a waste blah blah, but if im only spending an extra couple hundred to enjoy myself then why not? gotta live it up every once in awhile.

Oh, and of course, the best bit, you get to build it yourself! If that’s not something you’ve done before, fear not, most of these cars can be built relatively easily, and there is plenty of help out there on forums. The Factory five forums are very very impressive, so are the GT40 ones.

There is, of course, an argument to be had about how automatics outperform manuals nowadays. This is usually true! But the real issue for manuals falling out of favor on many supercars is that the demand just wasn’t there. And, truth be told, plenty of Lambos and Ferrari’s get sold to people who simply like them as status symbols. These people typically do not care to drive stick either.

From 1990 1993, Acura sold the second generation Integra, perhaps the most popular among enthusiasts. You’ll want to find one with the 1.8 L engine producing 130 hp or the top level GS R Integra which was first introduced in 1992. Featuring Honda’s VTEC (Variable valve Timing and lift Electronic Control), the GS R’s engine produced160 hp and proved to be a favorite for tuners and enthusiast drivers alike.

I think AC only is fine, but for me, the i3 isn a primary car it our commuter/secondary car. if lots of miles need to be driven, we drive something else/use different transportation. stopping every hour for 30 minutes would be a shitty experience (and you would have to know the stations exist).

As for make/model recommendations, it’s really such a broad category. Look up safety ratings for cars in your price range. To plan ahead for the future, look for a car that has 2 sets of LATCH anchors you’re going to need a top tether anchor for each forward facing car seat, so you need 2 for twins.

“Now, where the hell am I?” The Pardinus main cameras showed a slowing shifting view of space. Apparently, she was resting against some large piece of debris. As it spun, it showed her a view of the debris field which now included many more objects than it previously had. Apparently the battle has ended without me.

I need REAL advice/suggestions on a carseat for our first LO. I though that after months of research we’d found our perfect infant seat. The Britax Chaperone. but two things now force us to regroup: 1 its the only seat that Britax now makes in China ( though we will still go with the Boulevard for our next seat, since its super safe 100% made in the US, but too big for an infant )

Sync is basically a user interfaced computer program built into most Ford vehicles including the Ford Fusion, Focus, Lincoln, or Mercury vehicles. Some of the features of Sync include voice operation of your cell phone, Ipod (or other mp3 player), driving directions, business search, sports and news, horoscopes and stock quotes.

Once the box is down, as you can see in the pictures, there is a little plastic wall that holds the harnesses in place. The brown harness is for the post (back) 02 sensor and the black is for the primary (front) 02 sensor. Pull the black harness out of the wall and unclip it. Once it is unclipped release the wires from the clips along the bottom.

I speed off traffic lights all the time and redline in 1st when I have to make a lane change. The trick is to get the revs to 3k 4k rpm and let the clutch out swiftly and not dump it. Maintain, but don add gas until slipping has ended and clutch is fully out. To continue accelerating as hard as your car is capable of, redline each gear and be quick with the changes.

To use an example from another sport I watch, Cricket, England stuck with Keaton Jennings for far too long, and it was because he had potential and was woefully out of form, but he was given a fair chance to regain form and to score runs. (Plus there is virtually nobody else, and hopefully he doesn’t get back into the team for the next Test.)

Day two sees more of the same, plus multiple runs on individual sections of the track that are famously difficult to master. As someone who freely admitted to being too scared to go it alone in my own car (without the untold benefits of insurance, since few companies will cover a driver on the ring), the fully insured BMW course seemed ideal so, after a 90 minute flight from Heathrow to Frankfurt and an autobahn blast to the circuit 100 odd miles away, it was time for what my instructor worryingly described as my Nordschleife “blooding”.

Some people will say that you can just go to your fire station or police department. You can’t! It’s best to look it up because it will tell you where you can get it checked, whether you can drop by/if they have a car seat check once a month or every couple of months/if you have to make an appointment. I live in a metro with 2.4 million people and we only have 21 places to get seats checked. Out of those 21 places, we have 2 you can stop by any day of the week at any time, 2 you can make an appointment for any time during their business hours, and the rest either have monthly/bimonthly/quarterly car seat check fairs. I had to set my appointment 24 days in advance because the children’s hospital was so booked out. I would suggest figuring out how to get yours checked soon.

In regards to REx, everything will effect range: temperature, speed, number of passengers, interior cabin heat/cool, wind direction, most recent driving efficiency. I can depart for IU (55 miles one way) with a full battery charge showing 95 miles (and the REx usually slightly under this for another 85 miles) and arrive at the destination with battery at 10 miles at >56 mph) when it starts at 6% charge. To solve for this, you have to slow down. On most interstates with posted 70 mph, its not safe to be driving 55. My approach has become to assume that the estimated battery mileage will drop considerably over the trip, by 50%, and so the best plan is to finder a public charger at the turn around point. You can run the REx through its 2 gals, refuel and get another 30 miles, but again this needs to be at much less than 70 mph. When you get home, the REx will be screaming at you, hot, fans blowing.

The charger itself is a $400 $600 item.Some people cheapen this process by using a dryer outlet that already exists in the garage and a slower (lower amperage) L2 charger that plugs into it (for around $300), but that means somewhat slower charging than what the car is capable of.

This doesn sound like a big thing but it a huge thing in the corners and probably the reason I keep buying BMWs. If it a pre 08 2 litre your going to be paying about 720 a year for tax I think. Your insurance will be dependant on your circumstances.The one thing I will say is to try to find out if the engine has been been mapped.

The first BMW bike, the 486cc R32, was built in 1923, with the flat twin “boxer” engine configuration that became a feature of the marque and is still used today. Later models included the 746cc R71 of 1938 and the hugely successful R12, which featured the first use of hydraulic front forks on a mass produced motorcycle.

Business search also is asked some of the same questions the driving directions service asks. You can either give specific information such as the city and state, name of the business or you can tell the computer to “search near me”. Once the computer finds the business you are looking for, it will give you the name of the business, address and phone number of the business it found. It will then ask you if you wish to call the business or get driving directions from your current location to the business.

The fourth generation Eclipse marked a return to more rounded styling similar to the second generation, but it also shared styling components with other Mitsubishi vehicles of that period. You can choose between a 162 hp 2.4 L I4 or a 3.8 L V6 packing 263 horses under the hood. All of these will be front wheel drive, and there are convertibles available as well. Though you can find an old model from a private seller for less, a fourth generation usually goes for around $9000, so it’ll be out of the price range for most young people.

In 1984, Toyota brought out the surprising MR 2, which was very different from the practical and uninteresting family sedans that made the manufacturer successful. The first generation (1984 1989) was extremely lightweight and featured, like all generations to follow, an MR (mid engine rear wheel drive) layout more commonly found on supercars such as the Ferrari F355 and Lamborghini Countach. The combination of lightweight chassis and perfect front rear weight distribution via the mid engine layout resulted in a car that handled like a champ and didn’t need a huge engine to provide sufficient performance. The 1.6 L inline 4 only produced 112 hp but could hit 60 mph in just over eight seconds.

But I was in their face and calling them “pigs”, because they were. A broken nose and red knuckles proved I fought back. So my arrests,,,, were a badge of honor, and I taunted them to keep me longer and get me a lawyer!! I sure as hell never claimed innocence as a defense, I claimed power to the people.

What possible really depends on your personal situation. Even so. I wouldn personally buy a 2015 2016 BEV if I frequently did drives longer than 30 miles one way.The i3 BEV is a perfect commuter. If you anything like me, you end up driving it every damn chance you can (even beyond the commuting).

At least that is what his dad said. maybe i am the only one here trying to teach him anything.Polly Cposted 7 years agoI have a 12 year old son and there would be no chance of him driving my car! Aside from being illegal, I can’t think of anything worse it’s bad enough seeing him on the road on a bike to be honest.

It be an easy car to make since everything they need is already in place and GM can badge engineer with the best of them. Make it a little plusher and softer than the Camaro but leave the crazy bells whistles for the Cadillacs make it solid, sensible luxury like a Buick should be keep the same drivetrains if they don want to spend money certifying new ones, slap some GS badges on there and done. Something more grown up than the Camaro for people who graduate from ponycars to BMW/Audi/Mercedes but don want the complication of owning a German car and/or want/need every high tech gadget right out of Q lab.

Competition success quickly followed, with now legendary drivers such as Derek Bell, James Hunt, JackyIckx and Niki Lauda all racing Alpina tuned BMWs to victory in events between 1968 and 1973. But in 1983 it becamean official manufacturer that owners couldcommission to modify their cars to Alpina specification an expensive business, since it involveddiscarding standard engines, gearboxes, suspension units and wheels in order to replace them with theenhanced components.

Not to mention with a race, while some factors may be foregone, it also a crapshoot, sometimes you lose for factors out of one control even if you did everything right in theory.But, we see what happen. But it takes more than a season to really have a car do well.But I crazy so what would I know?This is a very closed minded and uninformed comment.

I’d like to hear some ideas from other Hubbers. Given those criteria (15+ years old, good condition, under $20,000), what vehicle would you buy and why?Ross Kposted 8 years agoI would recommend a Mercedes E Class from 90 94. These cars were over engineered and built like tanks. Nothing like Benz’s of today.

Warranty should cover it, but your dealer will have to claim it and they will have to make that case to BMW corporate. Stupid. I could have driven it in but they wouldn take it without an appointment. Next time you wonder why BMW service is so expensive realize how they throw money away.

The first time I tried to go fast, I got to right at 50.01, and I know there a lot I can improve. I won almost half a second in the first turn (but then messed it up in the second and third, I can seem to get those right).70 hours isn really that much, I personally have clocked in over 500 hours in AC and I still suck mostly.

Last week, BMW unveiled plans to increase the production capacity at its Pretoria based Rosslyn plant, the company’s first production facility outside Germany, built in 1973. The move is expected to enable BMW to double its exports from the country Donauer says that 80% of the cars produced at the plant are exported to countries across the world.

3) Pete Buttigieg. Now I going to preemptively defend his 3 slot by saying, I don think he in any way qualified to be President. That being said, he the top contender for VP. He carries himself extremely well with very desirable VP traits. He friendly, humble, charming, charismatic with solid understanding of a surprising range of issues. His few solutions were mediocre, but he seemed pretty washy on taking hard stances anyway. It obvious he doesn have the experience of many people on the stage, but he a solid campaigner from a very critical state; which is the dream scenario for a VP pick.

You know how to pass the slower GT3s because you have experience driving one, meaning you can predict and anticipate what they going to do at a certain moment etc. The races are also 3x the length and include a pitstop, and the guys racing the GTE cars are crazy fast no lie, they some of the best drivers on iRacing IMO.The GTE cars are also a lot, lot harder to drive.

As we had owned a Honda Civic that we got 210,000 mi. out of, and drove for free for 11 yrs., and after just purchasing another one for my wife, which she loves, I felt that I had to investigate the Fit, and compare it to other, similar types of vehicles.

What we should have is elevated mass transit only systems and compact cities with the entire groundscape both green and scaled to human life. But being that the most powerful companies on the planet are all dependent on the wasteful paradigm of sprawl, ineffecient cities/buildings, and automobiles, this is what we get. That is the problem with monopolies. Industries that do not have to compete become stagnant. And actually in a lot of ways I think you can see the same thing happening with computers and electronics.

From easiest and less is the following. A consideration many overlook is the radiator cap itself. If it does not maintain a specified pressure the system will run hotter. When water is under pressure the boiling point is raised. Many parts stores will test the cap for you for free. Caution is strongly advised to only remove the cap when the engine is cold. Best have a professional do this.

In 2000, Mitsubishi rolled out the third generation Eclipse. This generation featured more angular styling than the previous generation and did not include any trim levels with a turbocharger or AWD. The suspension was altered to provide a more comfortable ride, and they changed up the engine options. RS/GS Eclipses came with a 2.4 L motor that made 150 hp. The GT came with a 200 hp 3 L V6 while the GTS model carried an improved version of the same V6 that pushed out 210hp. Mitsubishi also made convertible versions of the GS, GT, and GTS trims. You can pick up a third generation Eclipse for anywhere from $4,500 $10,00. Again, pricing will depend on mileage, condition, and the used car market in your area.

But it not 100% necessary if you a short distance commuter.Anything else you should worry about?Tires. They a little expensive (more than $150 per tire). Make sure the car you buy has a relatively fresh set.Range. This thing is going to get between 60 and 80 miles of range, but you won hit that 80 mark outside of perfect conditions (45mph, good weather, no AC/heat usage, eco++ mode).Realistic “safe” range under real world heavy AC/heat use is going to be closer to 60 miles.

If the majority of your daily driving is within a 30 mile circle of your house, and you only do 30 50 miles of driving per day, this is a fine car. If you frequently find yourself driving further than that. you either going to need a backup second vehicle with a gas engine, or you should REALLY consider jumping up to a REx i3 because it backup gas generator is going to give you the freedom to take the occasional long drive, while still replacing 99% of your mileage with electricity.

Wood quality Most often, the cabinet face frames and doors are made of solid wood, but it is generally Russian Birch, even if they advertise it as Cherry. Some manufacturers offer real Hard maple, Oak and even Cherry, but the quality of the lumber is below our domestic select grade. They are basically using the least desirable cuts of lumber that the domestic cabinetry and furniture markets can’t or won’t use. There is nothing wrong with this approach. Just be sure that if it’s Cherry cabinets you are after, it’s real Cherry cabinets you are getting.

Tbh, if I were to move back in to Boston, I’d buy a BMW 310r and bike in and out to work. Maybe sell your Nissan for that for spring autumn. Then you can save miles and wear and tear on the X5 and make it last way longer and save yourself the headache. In a big car Boston is a night mare. On a bike? It’s fun and easy to park and since Boston is 90% slow moving traffic the risk of bike accidents goes down Astronomically vs a fast moving city like Austin or Indianapolis. And you’ll get 55 76 mpg.

Non Mini dealerships won’t do a good job servicing your vehicle. I took my car in to a local repair shop to deal with a couple small issues, as well as get an oil change. They couldn’t fix the issues I had with my car, and missed a very critical issue that my dealership found months later. So don’t rely on a non Mini dealership/repair shop to take good car of your vehicle.

That includes the price of tires and other consumables, which I have said several times I did not include because those are common. But if you want to do a mile per mile comparison of cost of a model 3 TCO go for it. If you take into account EVERYTHING I have done to the car, I am around $2500. That with Tires, coolant replacement, cabin air filters, brake fluid change, and I sure some other things I forgotten. No major “omg this maintenance is so expensive!” items. Hell the tires on our 3 will likely cost 2x what we paid to re tire our Prius, and will probably need to be done twice as often.

Just five years ago, a good, roadworthy R90S could be had for about 5,000 but that was then. UK dealer Classic Super Bikes is now offering a superbly restored example for 12,500 andanother described as “a bit scruffy in places” for 9,995. Meanwhile, Australian auction house Shannons has hammered down a beautifully restored smoke grey example for A$15,500 (about 8,870).

7) Jay Inslee. He pretty much the typical Governor type. It refreshing hearing from someone in the executive branch instead of a Senator since they tend to be more pragmatic, jack of all trades, and experienced in getting results; tradeoff if they tend to be weaker on policy and don have focused strong issue points. That being said, he only really stood out for environmental concerns and he otherwise pretty cookie cutter. He make a fine VP pick if he didn come from a safe (D) state.

15) Beto O All talk no substance. You absolutely could tell he way out of his depth, and had to rely on stories and being relatable. That great for a House rep, OK for a Senator, absolutely not enough for President. Presidents must have past results and plan for future results and a story is far from both. He didn even bother adapting after he visibly realized his strategy wasn working and just gave up.

Maybe get an older Mazda Miata if you want a sports car. Those are seriously a ton of fun to drive. Take the difference and put it in a mutual fund of some kind and maybe go on a vacation before you enter the workforce. Experiences trump things anyway..

Later if you must get an prestigious badged car (It arguable in SoCal if any of the big 3 german brands can be viewed as prestigious short of the $150k+ semi exotics), go buy an 3 year old CPO BMW for 50% of MSRP while still having 2 3 more years of CPO warranty coverage.

It was under warranty after all, right? I felt like I was an alien They are not used to people taking out their batteries apparently. They advised me to replace the battery and have it towed to the dealership. Which I did.I did learn something today. The tow truck operator used a jump starter and it ran fine.

If you don have a huge commute and rarely put on more than 20 30 miles in a day, that charger will work just fine.If you end up using up the whole charge in a single day though. and need a full charge by next morning. things get dicer.It takes this car 18 20 hours to fully charge from empty using the included level 1 charger, and obviously you can do that overnight.That where a L2 charger comes in.

/ Matthew SheahanEmailTwitterPinterestFacebookAs BMW Oracle Racing’s USA 17 crossed the finishing line for the second and final time on February 14 2010, winning the world’s oldest international sporting trophy had cost the team roughly $720,000 per minute. At least, that was the best guess by experts who have suggested that BMW Oracle Racing’s campaign for the 33rd America’s Cup cost as much as $200m. But even this extraordinary sum spent during three years of preparation for two races that lasted a total of 4 hours and 39 minutes didn’t really reveal the true expense. Software billionaire Larry Ellison’s crusade for the America’s Cup started with the formation of his team in 2000, yet despite being among the best funded, his 2002 2003 and 2007 campaigns both failed to get the team into the position of eventual challenger. If the costs of these endeavours were taken into account, the final tally for Ellison’s success could be as much as $500m.

So I hate to do this because I tried to use this exact argument as to how it not so much Tesla leading the charge into a BEV future, but governments, but so far (unless something had changed in the past 6 months) none of those countries have any sort of signed and ratified legislation those dates are just promises/pledges. Maybe they will happen, maybe they won It likely depend on the feasibility of actually banning ICE/PHEV vehicles at the time. I suspect those who set 2025 dates will push those back. I suspect those who set 2040 dates might be ok. That said, 20 years of more PHEV and less pure ICE is absolutely a good step and absolutely part of the solutions.

June 02 2017EmailTwitterPinterestFacebookDedicated BMW owners always knew. They have long and very happy memories when it comes to the big 8 Series coups of the 1990s, and there was always talk that Bayerische Motoren Werke would revive the Series 8 legacy, reinvent it. Now there is a powerful, beautiful new Concept 8 Series sports coupfrom one of the world’s great car makers.

It would be a shame, yes it a big car, but it only had one season. It takes more than a season sometimes for a car to reach it stride.There exceptions, some vehicles are competitive out of the gate, the Mustang in V8 supercars in 2019 (although Dick Johnson Racing/Penske generally does not mess around when they can commit), but it takes a while.

My real advice though: It doesn sound like you much of a car person, bfakn.club or really into cars all that much. Will the BMW really bring you enough joy to justify the expense? At 27 with that income you are in your absolute prime years for stashing cash away for retirement and building up savings for a down payment on a house. Get a 2014 economy car for 10 15k that will last you another 10 years while saving like crazy.

It’s not just that it’s on one screen. The Hearthstone UI and animations are brilliant and under appreciated in terms of how they help with understandability. Consider the animation when a new card is drawn, for example. It comes out and at the apex of its arc, it slows down quite a bit. That combined with a strong preference for brief card text makes it easy to read as it’s drawn. Same when your opponent plays a card: the card flips over for and hangs above the board for a few seconds so you can read it.

That said, my wife forgot to charge my i3 one night and I was almost stranded. luckily I limped into a BMW dealership that had one and 10 minutes later I had enough to get home. not particularly a big deal, if it had been AC I would have left 30 minutes later.

PP (previous poster) are right though, you almost definitely have to move up to a 4 door for the post infant seat stage (which can come anywhere from 6 months to over a year depending on your babies’ height and weight. We just like every month we don’t have to pay for a new car. We tried some of the smallest convertible rear facing seats out and like PP (previous poster) said, it’s impossible to buckle them in there when you’re bending over. I do a lot of yoga, and I can’t imagine any way it will be possible. So, within a year, we’re probably in the market for a sedan with a big trunk, unless the minivan disease really takes hold.

Someone eventually pays for it.It was, as the experts here knew, the 12V battery. Replaced on warranty, and all is well.Lingering issue is the battery died in 30 months and 8500 miles. If that an expected life, I hope there a source for non OEM batteries at some point. Near as I can tell, no one else sells a battery that fits/works in the i3.Otherwise, this is a great car.

The charger itself is a $400 $600 item.Some people cheapen this process by using a dryer outlet that already exists in the garage and a slower (lower amperage) L2 charger that plugs into it (for around $300), but that means somewhat slower charging than what the car is capable of.

We’re actually in Southern Ontario but in the snowbelt a couple of weeks ago all of the roads in our county were closed for a couple of days. We’re new here so it’s been quite a learning experience. DH (dear husband) says nearly everyone he works with owns an SUV/truck. At least they do get paid when there are snow days.

I mean following your reasoning a couple of years ago I could have said my “attainable dream car” was a piece of shit 1999 four cylinder Accord, because I only had like $1000 to spend on a car and I wanted a station wagon and it was all I could afford. Do you think it would be cool if I made a post gushing about my “attainable dream car” in the title without specifying what it was, then go on to talk about this shitheap no one cares about?

I would be concerned about keeping a nicer car safe being that your beater already got broken in to. I am a sucker for toys of the four wheeled variety, but maybe it would be better to just buy reliable transportation in cash right now and allocate your income to getting your down payment put together to get in to a house (assuming you’re going to continue to live in the area for a while)Car guy here. A civic is nearly as fast (if you not a car person you won notice the acceleration difference), handles better, and has way more luxury features than a 328i. The only two things the 328i has on a Civic is better ride quality and less road noise. If you actually looking for a car that is fun to drive, you can do much, much better for way less money. But seriously, another note on features, the BMW 3 series fully loaded has a serious lack of luxury features compared to all economy brands: Honda, Toyota, Nissan, Hyundai, and Kia all have more and better features than 3 series BMWs.

Despite having installed an L2 charger. I never actually needed that charging speed. Most of my driving happens close to my house (about 35 miles per day, if I average it out), and the car is pretty much always topped up when I jump into it in the morning.So. should you get an L2 charger? I still say yes, because fast charging is nice.

It virtually impossible due to the electric drivetrain to make an EV version of an ICE model and make the car desirable for the old reasons. The lineup has to be created again and would have to appeal at each price point for new reasons. Acceleration vs top speed, energy efficiency versus track performance, charge speed versus refueling, they can be electric versions of the gas cars. The cars need to appeal to EV people and they will appreciate the longer range for a less luxurious interior. To them the technology is the new luxury, not the wood trims, leather and many buttons. The drivetrain also allows more interior space for a given wheel base that usually determines segments of the market. The rules are different.

Accessories What makes cabinetry these days so different than it was 15 years ago is the interior storage items that are now available. Plate storage, spice pull outs, towel racks, mixer lift outs, and adjustable roll out trays have made cabinetry so much more user friendly and modular. With the imported cabinets, you will be forced to accessorize your storage needs yourself, hoping that the roll out you bought at Lowes fits the cabinet you bought from China. Any storage items that do come with your cabinet are of lower quality, typically a white coated wire.

See, that’s what gotten under my skin so darned bad. My panties (I actually wear Made in the USA Fruit of the Looms) are really in a terrible bunch because we’re at this place that we’ve gotten to where everyone at the bottom is simply an underachiever and should simply be someone thankful that a few scraps fall his way now and again thanks to all of the genious, and hard work of the guys at the top who, according to all accounts, are the ones who really make it all happen.

The issue is that some of the people who do abuse it are so incredibly blatant. They get away with more because they are actively scamming the system. It’s like a nerfarious version of what I do with airline miles. I find every program and loophole I can because it’s the only way I can afford to visit my family (and it’s legitimate). Because I am actively keep an eye on the programs and know all the rules/loopholes I get way more miles than most other folks who passively use the programs. I have personally known some welfare abusers and am sadly related to at least one. You’d think just by watching who brags, you could pick out the creeps. It seems most people don’t have the patience though. It’s a shame that there are people who use their benefits at casinos,resorts, in the Bahama, etc. Because it devalues the purpose of the system.

The way we currently look at productivity is so simplistic (and maybe with our system, it has to be). It amazing that we can get over out issues and move onto the bigger questions. These social issues really should not be an issue, and the fact that so many people decided that their hill to die on while we can accomplish so much more is absolutely ridiculous.

Usually, in vehicles that have a hatchback style trunk (with an open seat back) you will find the anchor on the back of the seat and sometimes in the ceiling (for the middle seat position). If the trunk is closed, you typically find the anchor spot behind the headrest. I know you will be tired, but installing the seat properly is very important. If the person picking you up doesn’t know whet to find the anchors in their vehicle, ask them to look it up in their manual as soon as they can.

The Gallardo is available with a 5 Litre V10 setup and the only one with the option of 4 wheel drive to give ground hugging handling on the road and the track and bellows a growl from its exhaust that’s louder than any Ferrari and is also available in the most outlandish colour combinations out there. With 0 100 KPH times quicker than the R8 and the McLaren, it is not the most fuel efficient supercar in its segment but has the feel of ‘passion’ and ‘zest’ which can sometimes lack in even the 458.

For me, it was in reverse. I had a souped up BMW, manual, special color, very tastefully modded, just they way I wanted it, dream car. I was gonna hold out for another couple of years, being that the BMW was the last manual 3 Series brought to the US (an F30), and I only driven manuals, by choice, my whole life (sidebar: I had an Honda Accord, manual, 220k miles that I sold before getting the Bimmer).

Other considerations Be sure to ask your cabinet retailer about things such as replacements, out of stocks, and damages. For instance, if your son breaks a door after six months and you request a replacement door, do you have to purchase an entire cabinet? Probably. What happens if your sink base cabinet is out of stock and you need everything installed next Wednesday? How long will you need to wait for the replacement?

Since trying an electric car in 2013 (a Smart ED of all things) I have never looked back. I am on my 6th electric car now, a Tesla Model S P100D. All the gas cars feel like a different century to me. Nostalgic antiques like steam trains, fax machines, and AOL. Huffing and puffing with all the heat and noise. A Rube Goldberg machine that wastes a lot of resources. It’s not just Tesla. I felt the same way about the Smart ED and our BMW i3. Tesla has just taken it the furthest without the legacy of 100 years of history and existing encumbrances. A true disruptor.

I was asking these question to try and see where people view points are but in seeing the responses I determined its just a bunch of hyperbole, just classic keyboard warriors not putting any thought into the situation besides superficial reasoning. claiming they are concentration camps is simply trying to instill nazi overtones to make their argument sound better. All it does it divide, take away from serious conversation, and doesnt lead to any solutions as each side hardens.

His residual is 6k as per KBB private party. That fine and dandy, but unless he takes the effort to sell the vehicle on his own (which most people sadly don he might get $3500 for trade in value on an exceptionally good day, of course heavily depending in the condition of the car.

Then, after following the instructions from the manual, you press the button for the garage door to go up . . . and nothing happens. Did you miss a step? Read on to learn about what most instruction manuals leave out: the step of programming the car/truck/van to the garage door machine itself.

The Coccoro is no longer a great option for multiples/preemies as it now has a 5lb./19″ minimum. (Yes, the website still says 3lbs., but other techs are reporting that new Coccoros are shipping with 5lbs. minimums on the seat and the manual.) Plus, the insert HAS to be used until kiddo weighs 25lbs, which means many kids are reaching the 1″ height limit long before 36″ or 2yo. :/ Combi has been non negotiable on that issue, saying that the seat needs to be turned FF if baby reaches the 1″ limit with the insert.

Most pet sitting is suitable job for older children. Many people work and don’t have the time to give their pets the time and attention they want. Some pets don’t have to be watched overnight: they may simply require feeding, watering, and walking a few times per day. But when people go on vacation or extended leaves and cannot take their pets, the pets will need care. Although many pet sitting jobs require that the sitter come to the home of the pet(s), if this is not an option, pet sitting can also be done in the sitter’s home instead.

If you have read my other DIY’s you know I’m all about saving money, and 02 sensors are not cheap. For a “narrowband” oxygen sensor I have no idea what that means, so don’t ask the price ranges from $70 $200 depending what you buy and where you buy it from. Add on another $150 if you’re having the dealership change it for you. Sorry, but even $70 is too much for me, for a sensor.

I gotten lenses from eBay, KEH and local pawnshops and have had good luck. KEH is probably the most painless everything I gotten from them has been better than expected. eBay is a bit of a crapshoot since it more or less impossible to evaluate a lens based on a few pics you gotta dig through a ton of feedback and at some point, just hope for the best. At least at the pawnshop you can put your hands on the lens and test it out but selection is limited.

It is important to note that this scanner is simply a connector and will not read the codes and display the information by itself. It needs a device that can connect to it via Bluetooth wireless such as a smartphone or laptop computer (you will also need software on that device). An easy solution is an Android powered phone with the Torque Pro app installed.

Sorry for the rant, I understand assembly manuals aren the easiest things to come up with from scratch. I didn order this with no expectation of some finicky stuff, tinkering, tuning, and so on that comes part and parcel with a machine you expected to assemble yourself. I sure that I be pleased once I actually get the machine running smoothly. But right now I definitely frustrated with some issues I didn expect given the price point.

Anyway, having established the connection between BMW and VerifyCar, the second part of the image includes a tweet from a VeChain VP talking about how VeChain reps were showcasing VerifyCar to BMW. The tweet is from October, but regardless I think the point was to use the BMWBLOG text to corroborate what VeChain had been saying all along. In other words, they are using the first part of the image to lend credibility to the second.

It’s the same story with the MK4 Roadster as with the hot rod above: All you need is an engine (Ford 289/302, 351, or 4.6l 4V V8), transmission, rear end, paint, wheels, tyres, batter, and fuel pump. All in all, this is a great little bit of kit for the money, and it’s backed up by professional service, outstanding quality, and a great price! As with the ’33 Hot Rod, expect to pay upwards of $25,000 for a completed car.

The Jaguar XK R is the second most powerful car on this list with over 500 raging horses under the hood; it looks fantastic and has a supercharger. So why is it so far down on this list? Weight. Despite having twice the engine displacement and 150 extra horsepower, the XK R is 16 seconds behind the TT RS, the next slowest car on the list, around the Nrburgring. Sixteen seconds! What this goes to show is that, like the Z4, the XK R is probably more comfortable going on a spirited weekend drive around the countryside than it is on a racetrack. While this certainly isn’t a bad thing there is definitely a market for GT cars such as this the relaxed driving style of the XK R isn’t going to be enough to get it higher on the list. Although it’s slower to 60 than others on this list, it’ll still plant you into the back of the leather seats when you put the automatic transmission into Dynamic Mode and floor it.

A dozen years ago, when I was a product development manager for a large cabinet component manufacturer, we used to talk about the bfakn.club effect China would have on kitchen cabinets. buyers would take them seriously. Plus, logistical nightmares such as replacement parts and “out of stock” situations kept us feeling safe from the threat of imported cabinets. market was flooded with cabinets from China.

People making dream car posts about Mustangs and Challengers and Corvettes are generally celebrating finally getting the car they dreamed of after saving up for a significant amount of time. If they just buy one on a whim with cash they had lying around then I agree, calling it an attainable dream car is just as pointless as calling a Fiesta or a Transit one. The point of an attainable dream car IMO is that it a stretch for you to get it, you have to make sacrifices, but you get the car anyway because it the car you been dreaming of for ages. For one person that might be saving up for years to buy a new sports car. For another it might be buying a cheap ratty version of the car they want and spending their own time building it into exactly what they want. But the point is that they put time and effort into it, because it their dream.

They use the 8 series for marketing reasons it the car they want to sell with that program. This has been brought up many times before. What the point in spending millions on a racing program without a plan to get a return on that investment?Trying to get a favorable BoP? Thats what every team needs to do in a BoP class.

But why go for the Factory Five kit over another company? Well, how about over 10 years of building and developing experience? Or, the fact that it has its own race series? I think the fact they have over 6,000 happy customers should clinch it for you, but if not, how about the $20,000 kit price?

High resale value. A Mini brand car has a pretty good resale value, assuming the car is in great shape and has no problems with it. If and when you decide to get rid of your car, you will earn more back than what you would with other vehicles. I tend to change cars every five years, and while I may not with my Mini, having a high trade in value is definitely a bonus.

The above of course has the normal disclaimer. Most certainly a professional must be consulted for diagnosis and repair. After the guy put everything back together, the guy tells me he lost one bolt. First he says don’t drive the car, then he says as long as it doesn’t over heat I’m good. How dangerous is this?What causes a car to over heat?by Moipone 7 years ago

If one is constantly filling with a lot of water there most certainly may be a leak. The proper way to check the system is a knowledgeable person with a pressure tester. The system is pressurized and then leaks can be sought. Some common ones are the hoses best checked first. A next best look is at the water pump seal. Freeze plugs are more of rarity today, yet can be considered. A good look about is needed overall.

However, there is a firm that does such things as a matter of course, that finishes every car by hand and, during its 52 year history, has seldom produced more than 1,500 vehicles in any 12 month period. And, with allocations to any particular market never exceeding thelow hundreds, the chances of another of these cars pulling up beside yours are extremely small.

With its four plants in Great Britain, BMW has now prepared itself for London departure from the EU on 29 March and has therefore brought annual maintenance forward from July to April. “This gives us scope for an orderly transition,” Wendt said. By stopping production in the weeks following the Brexit, BMW wants to reduce the risk of interruptions in the supply chain and restart as smoothly as possible afterwards.

If the majority of your daily driving is within a 30 mile circle of your house, and you only do 30 50 miles of driving per day, this is a fine car. If you frequently find yourself driving further than that. you either going to need a backup second vehicle with a gas engine, or you should REALLY consider jumping up to a REx i3 because it backup gas generator is going to give you the freedom to take the occasional long drive, while still replacing 99% of your mileage with electricity.

Splicing the Wires and Installing the O2 SensorThe Ford sensor 15718 only has about 15 16″ of wire. You’re going to need around 30″, so don’t get too eager and cut off your VW harness just yet, lthough you can cut off the plug of your new Ford sensor as close as you can towards the connection.

Questionable driving, to say the least. That not to say that there aren LMP drivers who don know what they doing many don but my own perspective of being someone who loves racing both GT cars and prototypes has seen a lot more issues with the GT traffic being completely unaware of oncoming cars or outright blocking them in dangerous fashion than some of the questionable overtakes I see from prototype drivers.Without turning this post into a bit of a rant, getting proper multiclass experience is vital if you plan on racing GTE cars, moreso if you want to race them in more than just IMSA.

Depending on the features included (upgraded infotainment, leather, etc,) that either “a good price” or “a steal.” Find out which “package” it has. (Mega, Giga, Tera.) And if it BMW Certified Preowned. That gets some extra factory warranty.It comes with a portable “occasional use cable” that is slow, but it works in a pinch.

Recently, as my boyfriend’s lease term ended this month, we went in to talk to the finance manager about our trade in process (salesperson no longer works there). He said he would try and work on it and to come back. He set us up with a salesperson and we got nowhere. Basically, they screwed us. Even though we negotiated the price of my car before figuring we needed to combine lease payments, I am now stuck with a remaining payment of $825/mo for my car alone as my boyfriend had to trade in his car. Somewhere in the mix of paperwork it was calculated to have my boyfriends value over the 36mo instead of 15. Instead, we should have had a much lower required monthly payment and paid over that amount for the difference of my boyfriends car during the 15mo so when he turned his in my payment would have been $400.

Utilising the Chevy platform (Corvette C5 1997 2004), this car needs a few more parts to complete than the other Factory Five kits. If you’re on a budget, you can buy a donor car. If you have a large pile of cash under your bed, how about completely new and upgraded parts and a stock Chevy LS or even the beast that is the Corvette ZR 1 638bhp LS9 engine?

I want to stress the point that imported RTA cabinets have been a huge success in recent years. They have placed the power of cost control in the hands of the DIY homeowner, and the quality and options seem to get better every year. They fill a special place in the price spectrum for many Americans, and in these tough times, this is a good thing.

Some people will say that you can just go to your fire station or police department. You can It best to look it up because it will tell you where you can get it checked, whether you can drop by/if they have a car seat check once a month or every couple of months/if you have to make an appointment. I live in a metro with 2.4 million people and we only have 21 places to get seats checked. Out of those 21 places, we have 2 you can stop by any day of the week at any time, 2 you can make an appointment for any time during their business hours, and the rest either have monthly/bimonthly/quarterly car seat check fairs. I had to set my appointment 24 days in advance because the children hospital was so booked out. I would suggest figuring out how to get yours checked soon.

I am so shocked at these stories as related by “victims” and their relatives. Of course the victims all being so innocent. I noted no relation of the conviction rate of the victims or followup on suspensions/probation and firings of any wrong doing cop. What to we have? 5 million in jail and 5 million law enforcement personnel. Let us see, and each cop making at least two “contacts” a day? Get back to me on percentages.

10) Eric Swalwell. So major props for putting Biden and Bernie on the defensive. He everything I like about as young candidate and everything I don like about a young candidate. He quick and has the California esque star power persona. But he skin deep in his policy depth and came off inexperienced all in all.

Using your mp3 playerYou can use the Sync system to voice or dash operate your mp3 player if you have the mp3 player plugged into the vehicle’s USB port. I use an iPod Touch in my car but I’m sure nearly all of Apple’s iPod products will work. There is a list of compatible mp3 players on the Sync website.

For the BMWs, I just not a fan. I liked the interior a touch more but I just couldn get into the car and really enjoy it, something about it was just lackluster in the driving department and I really disliked the exterior of the car. I didn feel connected to the car like I did in the ATS and that really cheapened the experience, I also not a fan of what it costs to maintain and own one.

My mil (mother in law) has a graco my ride for my infant (yes that is the exact same seat I just bought for us) and is looking for a smaller car seat for her car so she can fit my other two boys easier. When all three are in the car, they have a hard time getting to the buckle. My other boys are in booster seats.

Throughout this whole process I kept thinking: I could walk into any BMW, Porsche, Toyota, whatever dealership with this pre approved loan and leave with a new car in less than 60 minutes most likely. If it took longer, it only be because they getting me a bigger discount or getting it delivered from another store.

The Coccoro is no longer a great option for multiples/preemies as it now has a 5lb./19″ minimum. (Yes, the website still says 3lbs., but other techs are reporting that new Coccoros are shipping with 5lbs. minimums on the seat and the manual.) Plus, the insert HAS to be used until kiddo weighs 25lbs, which means many kids are reaching the 1″ height limit long before 36″ or 2yo. :/ Combi has been non negotiable on that issue, saying that the seat needs to be turned FF if baby reaches the 1″ limit with the insert.

I would like to thank Michael Cotton for his reporting in motorsport for decades since the Ford GT first won Le Mans (that far!). Without his reporting, the huge bulk of the inital Group C research in this post will most likely be lost or hidden in magazines that we still can find. I remember the difficulties of tracking down a certain issue of Autosport magazine for accounts on what happened/announced durring the meeting in 1989. Only to find out that I got Autocar magazine instead. Yeah.

Last week, BMW unveiled plans to increase the production capacity at its Pretoria based Rosslyn plant, the company’s first production facility outside Germany, built in 1973. The move is expected to enable BMW to double its exports from the country Donauer says that 80% of the cars produced at the plant are exported to countries across the world.

Her look was often imitated, as she wore short skirts, fishnet stockings, crucifixes, and bleached her hair very light blond. Her overtly sexual videos on MTV caused many parents to accuse her of promoting premarital sex. They tried to make her a scapegoat for declining family values, a familiar tactic for people who need a scapegoat for understanding why their teens rebel sometimes in dangerous ways.

I am glad I don have monthly payments now but looking back, buying a BMW was a great decision because I was 24 and I could afford it. Now, after marriage I don see myself buying a German car. I want peace of mind and that something that a German car does not give you. When I look at my wife Camry and her maintenance costs, I wonder is it worth it?

While the success was celebrated by BMW Oracle, others were not so happy thanks to another quirk of the Cup. Normally, the first official challenger to throw down the gauntlet becomes the Challenger of Record, but this doesn’t give them an automatic right to race the defender. If other clubs issue separate challenges, it is up to the Challenger of Record to organise a series in which the best challenger goes on to the America’s Cup.

(Plus, it really nice to get in a car that already the right temperature, than to get in a freezing car during the winter, or a sweltering car in the summer.)Note: I bought a 2015, certified preowned, every single option about 8 months ago, and it the best car purchase I ever made.

Absolutely, we are in a totally difference place now or we wouldn even be considering the BMW DH had a large increase in income and we over half way to debt free. We could buy a BMW cash with the sale of the cars and money we have saved, but would rather not plunge for a more expensive vehicle until we bought a home.

Since 2003, Alpinas have been put together on specialproduction lines at BMW’s Munich, Dingolfing and Regensburg plants in Germany and its Spartanburg factory in the US, with every model being sent to Alpina’s headquarters in Buchloe for the finishing touches to be applied. Around 250 employees work at the Buchloe HQ where Alpina has been based since 1970 and it is from there that the Alpina components are shipped to the BMW assembly lines. It is at Buchloe, too,that modelling and prototyping are carried out, engine and gearbox upgrades are designed, specialised parts are made and the in house saddlery workshop produces the cars’ superb hand stitched interiors usingflawless Lavalina leathers.

Then enters the ATS, It had 1 owner who put less than 10k miles on it per year and was everything seemed basically brand new. It was in a much better condition, had way more tech, AND it was a few thousand dollars cheaper than the BMW, it was a no brainer. These are the types of cars that I love to buy because they are such a steal on the pre owned market. Now, buying these brand new is a different story but I never do such a thing with most vehicles.

I drove a 991.2 911 before I bought the Evora. It was a very capable car that was completely soulless and uninspiring. Never been more disappointed after driving a car because of how high my expectations were for it. I am pretty positive that I don want any modern Porsche that is not a GT car (which I have ridden in on track and they are amazing). The Evora, on the other hand, feels special every time I get in it. It looks exotic, Lotus even managed to make it sound exotic, and you feel completely connected to the road when you drive it. The steering feedback and directness is unmatched, the shifter assembly is so percise and tactile, the ride is compliant with very little body roll, and that Toyota V6 sounds like it came from Italy. It not a numbers car for magazines. It simply an exceptional driver car. It still makes me smile everything I drive it.

Idea 6: Children and Teens Can Sell Unwanted Clothes, Toys, and Other ItemsWith the parents’ permission, children and teens can sell unwanted items. This will usually require parental supervision and guidance. While this may not be a business opportunity for young children, it’s a great way for a teenager to earn quick cash.

Just like having the engine running on a ICE car. So if the 12 battery is too dead to fire up the controllers the HV battery can be energized and therefore can be charged either. So the battery is likely not dead enough to have the car be completely dead (no door locks no nothing) but too dead to pull in the line contactor for the HV battery.

12) Tulsi Gabbard. As a Veteran x1000. She had good presentation, I give her that. But the only position I got out of her was a war hawk that doesn want war. OK, fine, Hillary ran on that platform and it was great. But she had very little other positions, and can hold a candle to Hillary diplomacy mastery so I don even know how she pull off the no war part.

Your Guide to Getting Your Vehicle on the Road in GermanyThe third item on my bucket list when I landed in Germany, immediately after finding a food source and securing shelter, was getting the means to exploit the autobahn to its full potential. Well, maybe that is an exaggeration, because one would need a Ferrari to accomplish that. A fair clarification of that statement would be: I intended to find something that moved me from A to B with four wheels, would accelerate with fuel in the tank and resembled a car to a sufficient degree as not to attract the attention of the Polizei.

If you have music files on your phone, those can be played using the Sync system. Your selection would be “bluetooth audio”. I have used this feature before and using the voice commands to do so are virtually useless. The dash screen doesn’t help either. I have found the only way I can play music from my phone is to select bluetooth audio from the dash screen which will open your windows media player on your phone and then manually starting the playlist from the phone itself.

Does anyone have suggestions for good, fuel efficient winter vehicles? And is owning two vehicles worth it for the large amount of fuel savings (keeping in mind we’re in Ontario where gas/diesel is more expensive, although prices haven’tbeen too bad as of late!) We already spend about $600 a month on fuel as it is, we live in a small town and have to drive 40+ min to get anywhere.

I not the dude you replying to, but you should know that police reports are often full of exaggerations, hyperbole, and downright falsehoods. The police present their side of the story to make them look as good as possible and justified in their actions. A police report is not admissable as evidence in California and other states as it is considered hearsay.

As far as pricing goes, the 458 in the US can retail for over $250,000.00 (although Australian prices are significantly higher due to our ridiculous luxury car tax of 33%) but like any other luxury sports car, they do depreciate and you can pick up a bargain direct off a private sale or though a dealer.

Precautions and DisclaimerPlease note that while reading your own OBDII fault codes can be very helpful in diagnosing problems on your own, you should only clear the codes if you are certain that those codes don’t indicate a serious problem. Ignoring a serious engine fault code could result in significant damage to your vehicle. The information provided here on reading your own codes is intended to give you a better understanding of what might be wrong with your vehicle before you have a professional diagnosis. That way you won’t be at the mercy of your shop and might have a better indication if they are diagnosing a problem incorrectly.

Roughly 1/2 of your annual income. Also, if you take a loan out on the car, it could mean that the car will cost you 10 25% more than the sticker price. Yikes!Yes, saving up could take up to a year but you will save yourself from looking like a douchebag (to some) for buying a brand new bmw your first month of work at your first job.

Sorry to come in to this over a week later, but I having similar issues during setup of an XL and one of my gripes to the friend who was present for assembly was not having any sort of accurate measurement for belt tension (or tension/torque on literally anything) in the basic instruction webpages. It not something specific to Shapeoko/Carbide 3D but it certainly souring my experience so far (in addition to a package that arrived with a damaged X axis beam that has made squaring extremely difficult and a number of spoilboard screw holes that had debris causing stripped and damaged screws which are arguably bigger issues than belt tension).

The law is that it illegal to refuse to submit to the sobriety tests. That does not compel you to actually submit to the search (blood test). It simply means you will be charged with an additional crime and you will likely have your license suspended. A warrant is still required to compel you to give a blood sample. If the police have actual reason to suspect you been drinking and driving is not particularly difficult to obtain a warrant to draw blood. The police don get to just skip steps because it easier. That how you get police railroading people who have not actually committed a crime.

Oh, and of course, the best bit, you get to build it yourself! If that’s not something you’ve done before, fear not, most of these cars can be built relatively easily, and there is plenty of help out there on forums. The Factory five forums are very very impressive, so are the GT40 ones.

She reached for her headphones, deciding music would help her think. She grabbed at empty air, remembering that she had been wearing them when the explosion happened. Where did they go? She examined the cockpit desperately, eventually spotting them wedged behind one of her foot pedals. Lucky. I hadn tried moving yet.

I searched old posts and came across a bunch with the BMW X3 and Diono seats in 3 across, but I need RF (rear facing) seat outboard for YDS.

No further yacht clubs can issue challenges and a challenger series does not take place. The Deed of Gift makes provision for such disputes by appointing the New York Supreme Courts as arbiters.
