You used to own an E30 M3 and now you own a 964... My two favourite cars of all time. I dislike you intensely sir!

That looks better than most 964 RS's that I've seen. With those wheels set against the black bodywork and that ride height, makes it a perfect looking 964!

Thanks, I still miss the E30...I replaced it with an M3 CSL, but it never really quite did it for me. The lack of a proper gearbox didnt help and I missed the rawness and driving experience of the E30. The 964 is a step back towards that, and so far, so good.

I must be one of only a few from the old BMWCC day that still have one? I think they all thought they were moving on by getting rid.

I dont see many of those guys around on the forums anymore, do you know what they have all moved onto ? The BMWCC forums seems dead!

I'm not normally one for having misbadged cars etc, but I haven't decided what to do with this one yet...

I dont honestly know James. I stopped going on the BMWCC site when it became Bavarian Board as it was very quiet, wouldnt go on the new BMWCC site out of principal. Uwe sometimes pops on the e30zone as does Toby, I know Rags is on here.

Love it. Love the wheels and love the simplicity and clean lines of the outside.

BMWCC shot themselves in the foot with that one !

Thanks for all the comments about the car, I'm off to Le Mans next week so that will be a good test for it !

How are those BBS wheels for the road? I thought they advised not to run the mag/forged alu wheels on the road as the salt turns them into mush very rapidly, but I might be wrong.

or are you a little more subtle with the noise?
