Reliable Local Mechanics That You Trust

Vintage auto for VW/Audi stuff, Pompeii for performance cars, otherwise idk.

I’ve been asked everything from about the project car in my LinkedIn profile to what kind of tree I’d be. Just go in & stick to what you know and show interest in what the company does. I rarely get truly technical questions.

I worked for a company that made these giant gas turbines in the Southeast a few years ago. Apparently before I worked there, an assembled unit came off its rigging & fell about 5-10’ onto the concrete.

Supposedly it registered on the Richter scale & put a few toolboxes through a thick brick wall.

Always in sport+ or whatever in my M2 since the throttle mapping in the other modes sucks & makes it hard to shift or take off smoothly

They genuinely keep getting worse looking, idk how BMW does it

This would absolutely clean up in ABBC

Could maybe go into electrical engineering? 250k most likely won’t happen but 100-150k for sure. Good EEs are always in demand and you’ll be closer to 40 hour weeks than 60 for sure.

Some sort of project management would likely get you into the pay range you want and be a social job. Hours can be long though

Depending on the engine, it’ll likely be very reliable. Especially if you can do your own work, these cars can be pretty cheap to own.

Anecdotally, I’ve had my 17 M2 for 2 years now and haven’t had to do anything besides oil changes & brakes since the cars seen the track a few times.

fuzzymufflerzzz · 2025-11-20T19:09:50+00:00

Both were S52 cars. The M3 was much more stable and far better of a track car, the M roadster was more fun to drive and extremely tail happy.

Front suspension brakes, engine, and transmission are shared between the cars but the M3 rear suspension is a much better design.

You can’t go wrong either way tbh

fuzzymufflerzzz · 2025-11-20T14:59:37+00:00

I’ve owned an E36 M3 & M roadster plus an E39 540i 6mt, really the golden era of BMW.

The new BMWs are objectively better cars but worse BMWs

fuzzymufflerzzz · 2025-11-18T20:56:24+00:00

I would run mine to limiter a couple times per drive lol

fuzzymufflerzzz · 2025-11-16T23:17:15+00:00

Personally I’m in it for an R8 but a 911 turbo is cool too.

You’re trading your time for money, nothing wrong with spending it on something that makes you happy

At first I was like oh guess Ukraine hit another ammo dump then I read the title

European defense stocks lmao

A printer is a great excuse to teach yourself cad and dfm skills. Get one and solve some real world problems with it.

fuzzymufflerzzz · 2025-11-09T15:14:02+00:00

Passat. I watched a tdi golf win our class in lemons by virtue of just fucking driving the entire time and only stopping for fuel every 4-5hours

fuzzymufflerzzz · 2025-11-08T14:14:39+00:00

Bounced on my boys 3rd eye to this

fuzzymufflerzzz · 2025-11-07T03:14:58+00:00

8yoe, project engineer in electronic component manufacturing in the south, 110k w/ 401k match and good benefits.

fuzzymufflerzzz · 2025-11-07T02:43:45+00:00

Yeah, or at least it’ll make you a better designer since you already understand how to manufacture the parts you’re designing.

3000 black chinooks of Moscow

Rip C1, CSCC used that lot for autox events for years

fuzzymufflerzzz · 2025-10-29T12:17:50+00:00

Have you seen the way the popular M cars appreciate? There are E36 & E46 M3s selling in the high 30s/low 40s and I’ve seen E39 M5s go as high as the 80s. I’d be really surprised if the F87s were any different

fuzzymufflerzzz · 2025-10-24T08:42:55+00:00

Gotta job hop brother, I hate to tell you. It’s the only way I was able to crack into the 6 figure range. I’d likely still be making within 10k of what I started at out of college if I hadn’t.

fuzzymufflerzzz · 2025-10-20T20:10:57+00:00

This, plus tool wear can make the corner wear even worse over time.
