I love the 370Z because it is so much better than the 350Z that I had...

But it is my Wife's car....

WTF....I am starting to agree with Kenchan....Now I am really confused..

FYI. DO NOT let another woman in the car before you wife..That could cause you to have your Nutts glued to your chest while you sleep..

Morning y'all...

335i Coupe
535/550 Sedan

I think *if* I ever sold the 5.0 it'd be to get something more practical and suited to driving every day. I'd keep the S2000 for sporting fun. But whatever I bought would still have to be connected and fun. The 3 series is nice but probably small. I do like the previous generation 5 series quite a bit. A CPO model is not too hard on the wallet.

nothing abnormal there. We as enthusiast often do that

I must "build" a car on some manufacturers website at least a few times a week

Tech and advisor aren't sure if replacing the fuel sending unit and/or gauge will fix the problem of the gauge not reading full.
Tech can't find the cam sensor oil leak but did find a coolant leak!

which does bring me to the focus ST. but im not a ford guy at all. and this neighbor a few doors down is a ford fanatic so im not sure if i want to be friends with this guy... he's kind of a crazy guy

lol, im kinda skeptical replacing just the guage is going to fix your problem.
i recommend replacing the sending unit first and see wat happens. cluster is a simple circuit and LED's dont blow this early in the game... they are diodes, not bulbs.

yah, the abarth is cool but i want something that i can carry stuff in.

although the very short wheelbase will ensure my kids' bicycles can park in the garage. im trying to kill several birds with one stone...

perhaps a cooper-s.

Common sense leads me in this direction as well, but they obviously lack this at the dealership. I'm about to say fvck it, just fix what you can and give me my baby back.
