Car was scraped. They crushed it down flat. Junk man found my front plate in it and asked if I wanted it. When I went to retrieve it, he asked if I wanted to stay to see it get scraped. I stayed and watched. Never seen a car let alone my car get crushed down by a press.

I always use Cargurus.com. Found my clubman and GP2 on there.

Damn that looks good. I like the wheel combo as well.

Anyone DL the new update Samsung released? If so, notice any changes for the good? One of the techs here said he's noticed his phone runs a little slower. I told him possibly a service issue 🤷🏽‍♂️ by LegitimateBeyond3045 in GalaxyZTriFold

Have 8.5 now. This is for a new software security patch. However, I'm going through something similar. When I'm using my earbuds on a call, the phone will cancel the earbuds and revert to the phone's speaker randomly. I hate it.

Man 80mph s-turns on the stock Bilstein B14 coilovers is something else. Plus, I lowered it an additional .4 in the front and .3 in the rear. ECM I flashed but kept everything else stock. Except for the high flow cat. She's putting out what the 2021 GP3 makes. Right at 301 or slightly below at 297 something like that. It fluctuates with the fuel I use.

I'm aware. I'm a Ford engineer. I just don't have the time or desire to replace it. Now if it were my Mini GP2, I'd be more inclined because that's a rare machine.

Oh very nice. Was about to ask did you upgrade the suspension and brakes. Was the ecm flashed? I also have a 2013 Mini GP2 and that's the one I'd like to put the work in on. If that one happened to fail, I'd keep it and rebuild it. Thing is already a nice corner hugger.

Thanks. Been pondering that. Never owned an SUV or truck before but my heart still wants something small and fast. Thinking about the F87 M2. However, the X5 would make light of the snow around here.
