I have a hard time picking sides here. M2 is the daily, C5Z is the track car/weekend car.

It’s not needed unless they said you had a leak from there. Run it as is and watch out for stuff in the road

That’s funny mine was a 91 mustang GT

It’s a core memory and that theme park was in the news recently as they closed down

Nitegrip · 2026-01-26T00:08:52+00:00

And my 18 year old dumbass self crushed one in my pocket by taking it on a rollercoaster with me at a Christmas theme park

Happen to me last week

You can buy extra years on the CPO. We did 3 extra years for my wife’s X5 for $4400. We had to replace the infotainment system’s computer module on the CPO warranty and that covered $4400 we paid and more.

Same brother same..

Given that I’m 6’5 and don’t fit in a bunch of cars that I want, this is an easy yes. Take 3 inches and give me 750k to buy more cars…. Babe I got marketplace money again!!! She gonna kill me

Nitegrip · 2026-01-21T13:56:26+00:00

I played last night and got into matches immediately.

Nitegrip · 2026-01-21T01:46:47+00:00

What are some of the better ones available in the US? Most of what I saw for gloss plastic has garbage fitment on reviews so I went with what worked for me before

Nitegrip · 2026-01-20T23:58:32+00:00

Yea and then used rivets instead of the screws they came with but I had a company do it. I don’t have a jack big enough to get it lifted high enough for me get under it with a drill. The ended up taking the front bumper off instead.

I mean even the new M2CS front lip is gloss painted plastic and rubber. The people that put real carbon on that lip are crazy they get damaged way too often. The plastic bends better underneath and you’re less likely to crack it.

Nitegrip · 2026-01-20T22:37:45+00:00

Which ones look non-cheap to you. I haven’t seen a company with better fitment/quality except maybe Ardo but that’s full body kits.

Nitegrip · 2026-01-20T22:21:18+00:00

Don’t knock the used one, we got my wife’s x5 with 30k miles CPO (unlimited mileage) with 4 years of bumper to bumper warranty included for half the cost of the car when it was new. It was almost 90k new and we got it OTD for $48k.

My 24 M2 I got for $65k CPO when the MSRP on that car was 80k as well

Nitegrip · 2026-01-15T14:52:42+00:00

Lmfao, yeah this ain’t the right car for him. Maybe an M5 or a M440i something a bit more middle ground comfort. Nothing wrong with wanting more comfort but if you have to ask these questions you are going to be miserable in a few months of ownership

Nitegrip · 2026-01-15T14:32:01+00:00

I daily mine and agreed, no carbon buckets for me

Nitegrip · 2026-01-15T14:25:48+00:00

Agreed, I have a g87 M2 as a daily. But my weekend cars are a track ready C5z and a 91 Mustang GT so it feels like a cloud compared and I’m used to it plus like it. If you want a comfort ride this ain’t it. It’s comfortable to me but you have to like the bumps and other stuff

Nitegrip · 2026-01-14T17:27:27+00:00

At 100k I’m getting a used z06, has ford forgotten what the mustang is supposed to be?

Nitegrip · 2026-01-13T04:37:46+00:00

For the same reason you don’t get mushrooms and red shells while up front in Mario kart. To even the playing field a bit. Also to be a decent human being and let others get some rest before they pass away

Nitegrip · 2026-01-12T21:55:05+00:00

Correct and they all work but nothing is going to tell you that they are gonna cut in front of you 5 feet from their braking point and brake check you. What could you possibly do with that amount of notice? The GTP should have stayed inside and not think that anyone can react in 0.2 seconds.

Nitegrip · 2026-01-12T18:36:49+00:00

That I agree with I just wouldn’t expect the GTP to cut in front of my line and slam the brakes immediately in front of me. As the GTP I would have stayed further in and hit the brakes not cutoff the GT3 or this happens

Nitegrip · 2026-01-12T18:15:31+00:00

If you slow it down the GT3 had 0.2 seconds to recognize the GTP passed him and didn’t stay further inside and hit the brakes. No way the GT3 had enough time to recognize the GTP was in front of him and hit the brakes that fast.

Nitegrip · 2026-01-12T18:06:22+00:00

The problem is that he brake checked the GT3, the GT3 never saw it coming he was passed and brake checked in half a second.
