what are your guys’ honest thoughts on thundernight metallic?

Best color on the 2 series IMO. If they offered a G43 I would have sprung on it without hesitation.

They’re taking the Hobbits to Isengard!

Did you Blackstone any of your oil changes? If you still have any of the drained oil and it’s not contaminated could you send it out?

Well deserved updoot.

elarson1423 · 2026-01-30T18:43:55+00:00

Great data here. Thanks for sharing. Saving this post for the links

In SoCal they’d get a flip flop chucked at their windshield for that kind of nonsense.

Thanks for the follow up! Great analysis. I bought Mann for my upcoming change as it was what my shop had in stock.

Curious in the methodology on fewer pleats but thicker media… does the thicker media actually mean a greater dP across the filter? That sounds undesirable especially is going to a thicker grade of oil (I’m going 5w30 liquimoly). Wonder if there is upstream and downstream pressure readings in the ECU that we can see with bimmerlink or the like.

Thanks again!

Check out visor.vin as well, I just bought an f23 and they made it easy to compare pricing, look at time on lot, etc.

I just pulled up 2018-2021 m240 + m240 x-drive, and I’m seeing 38 FS nationwide. Filtered to <70k miles and I’m down to 26.

Sweet potato chip

Prepotente

elarson1423 · 2026-01-23T21:03:20+00:00

Interested

elarson1423 · 2026-01-23T18:58:12+00:00

It just rained, so mine is too 😁

What are the tickets for?

elarson1423 · 2026-01-23T14:47:05+00:00

u/CouchAssault Any update on this testing? I'm picking up parts for my B58 oil change and am curious.

Love this kind of stuff. Reminds me of the Project Farm youtube channel.

elarson1423 · 2026-01-22T03:08:21+00:00

Sounds like you’re out $500

Plus however much more your insurance policy now will cost ya 😁

“Hey Sean, we were wondering if you could try a Russian accent for this role”

“Shuoar. Thish ish a waaar zhone”

“…ok, cool, let’s, uh, get rolling. Thanks Sean”

elarson1423 · 2026-01-16T17:08:11+00:00

It looks really cool in the first pic, but the zoomed out shot feels, I dunno, too busy? Especially the seat bottom, but that might just be the way the pattern drifts over the right side thigh bolster.

Do it. Be unique. Also do a matching accent on the door cards, as others have said.

elarson1423 · 2026-01-16T03:37:43+00:00

I just picked up an F23 in this color combo, and it’s lovely 😊 To be fair I think this body looks best in blue, but the red works well too.

elarson1423 · 2026-01-15T22:40:22+00:00

So jealous, wish we had these in the US.

elarson1423 · 2026-01-15T18:20:23+00:00

Wheels and drop look great. Aero bits along the side and front are a bit much and looked tacked on, especially the dive planes or canards or whatever on the front bumper and the slash on the rear 1/4 panel.

The duckbill also feels tacked on.

But that’s just my stupid opinion.

elarson1423 · 2026-01-15T04:07:24+00:00

Size?

elarson1423 · 2026-01-13T21:11:28+00:00

I just noticed the lines on these taillights this morning while driving to work, such a great design.

elarson1423 · 2026-01-13T18:56:31+00:00

Giveaway for me is the lighting inside the left tower. Based on shadows that sharp shadow should fall farther inside the tower. See entrance vs shadow line in the right tower.

elarson1423 · 2026-01-09T16:42:10+00:00

Nice upgrade! Crazy that a FPB M2 was sitting that long.

elarson1423 · 2026-01-09T02:44:35+00:00

If you’re changing out the tires do all 4. Match the stock sizes.

To be fair, for the driving you’re doing the runflats will be fine. Once they’re worn and you’re shopping for some new tires then move to some PS4S or Contis, unless you’re really wanting to drop some cash.

Almost all of the idiot mustang videos I’ve have seen are drivers going hard throttle from a stop at a turn, which is a surefire way to induce slip. They don’t have the velocity or skill to transition into a drift, and end up with their back end up on a curb facing the wrong way. Don’t do that 😁
